TO distinguish herself is Miss Mary A |
McEVily, a protegee of Senator and |
Mrs. Carter Of Montana. She is the
favorite pupil of Jean de Reszke. who
is training her for the operate stage |
De Reszke has given up the operatic
stage ana is now devoting himself en- |
lirely TO teaching. His greatest ambi- |
ton is to discover and introduce the
Orima donna of the future. and he has
several young women of great promise
n charge, Miss McEvily being one of
hem. She made her debut in concert
asst May, with great success, and has
,ince supported herself by singing at
private soirees in exclusive Paris circles.
She hopes to be ready to make her
iebut in grand opera during the com
ng winter but Mr.. De Reszke has not
fet given his consent. She will al
east appear in concert, making a tor.
n England and afterward of the United
