Her first appearance in America was
at the Worcester Festival in 1899, when at

in fact, such enthusiasm as was displayed
by the New York and boston critics, as
well as by the audience. had never been
known at these tme-honored festivals.
nor has such enthusiasm ever been mani
tested there since. This first appearance
was not unlike the first appearance of
Jenny Lind in This country, the Swedish
nightingale, whose appearance was much
Ike that Of Nine. Anderson. From that
time Nine. Anderson was besieged with
engagements.
After three years Of the most success

and as soloist with the principal orehes-

elected to get her operate experience. and
for the past five years she has lived in
