A New York critic who has heard
Nine. Nevada since her return from
Europe, says of her: ut may be said at
once that Nine. Nevada's voice has not
changed; it is just the same small but
eXquisitely sweet voice as ever-flute
like in the forte passages, like a muted
! violin in the pianissimos. But she has
a more intimate knowledge of the re-
sources of vocal art than before, and
sings with more assurance If constant
use of her voice has in any measure
taken from it its freshness an init
mate knowledge of artistic artifice en-
ables her to conceal the fact, for it
seemed last evening as pure as ever,
/ especially in the upper notes.
| In appearance she has changed but
| slightly, is much the Nevada of old, a
/ little more womanly; but if not quite
so girlish as she was, she has a greater
! case of manner a savior faire that
serves to impress her audience better
than before. In short Nine Nevadas
added years have added a graceful
charm 10 her singing and her bearing,
bettered her voice and her personality.
! In its fiexibility her voice is thor
oughly up to its old standard and in the
Lucia scene-the mad scene as it is
Familiarity called, she showed abund-
ant dexterity, the difficulties of the in
| tricate establishment being sur
mounted brilliantly Nor was mere
vocal ability the sum total of merit in
the scene-there was sweetness of
tone and sentiment of phrasing as

A real opium joint, just as it exists in
the Chinatown of New York City, is one
of the features of the big spectacular
comedy drama, "One of the Bravest,"
which makes its appearance at the
! Worcester Theatre tomorrow night.
| Charles Mccarthy and William Cronin
who have been engaged for their old
parts, those of Harry Howard and
Mrs. Grogan, respectively, have been
/ identified with the play since its initial
| production, 16 years ago. Both Nc

Through the Breakers" the success
full melodrama by Owen Davis, which

strong situations in the third act From

of stage illusion-the rolling in of the
surf never failing to win bursts of APP
