a shy sonrano.

Lee KugeI gives his word OF honor
that a distinguished American So
prano who has sung with success in
the foremost operahouses of Europe
will make her debut in a week from
Monday afternoon at Proctor's Fifth
avenue theatre, says The New York
Sun last Sunday. This Is her first
appearance in vaudeville or anywhere
else outside of a European operahouse.
At least Mr.. Kugel says so, and he
adds that neither he nor she has the
slightest intention of revealing the
identity OF this mysterious artist.
There is a reason why the soprano
selected the two a day in place OF the
Metropolitan opefahouse or some of
the other operate theatres In this
country allied with 1t. She says that
being an American it was impossible
for her to get a hearing at the Met
ripolitan operahouse. She found that
foreign singers were preferred there
and decided without revealing her
identity to make her first appearance
in vaudeville.
So anybody acquainted with a dis
tinguished American soprano who
slipped her moorings In the foreign
operahouse and whose whereabouts
are at present unknown may find her
next week at the Fifth avenue theatre.
She will not wear a mask nor sing be-
hind q net, but she just never, never
will let anybody know who she is or
