SybiI sanderson in phryne."

The Paris correspondent of the New York
Tribune writes: America as a land OF sweet
songstresses scored another great success on
Wednesday night, when Miss Sanderson of
California appeared here In the leading part in
Saint-Saens' comic opera of "Phryne." This
vocalist has all the gifts needed for the part.
She has splendid figure, face which one Is
never tired OF looking at, and delightful voice
of the light and rich soprano Kind. 1t was not
easy TO be Phyrne without trenchng on the
properties. Yet she was equal to this require

with his Californian songstreSs, as well he
might be. Miss SandersOn is an accomplished
actress. She lives here with her mother and
several sisters who are all gifted, but In differ
ent ways, which is fortunate. They do not,
therefore, enter into rivalry with one another
SOmehO she did not take IN London, where
she sung in "Manon" Perhaps she would now
impress London public differently. her voice
and talents having since then gained In ma
turity. The music of "Pnyrne" is on The whole
light, lively and most original. 1t Is free from
the dross of every sort of vulgarlty. Harps
and tmbrels brought into it with the hap
piest effect. The use made of them gives one
the idea OF gancing cleverness, mental quality
for which the Athenians OF former days were
famous. Some passages are simply splendid IN
The overlooking fuliDess OF strong musical senil-
ment. One of these is the hymn OF invocation
/ to Venus. This Is an appropriate hymn 10 be
l. sung in the house of Phryne. IL Is given as a

/ only could have composed. The AtDeniaE pro-

he could infuse a little more dramatic spirit
