Miss Garden was an infant in arms

singing in America and France. She
had no need of studying acting.
Miss Garden carried all before her
in French opera, to which She brought
distinguished talents and vivid and ar
dent personality; and her successes in
France, preceded the many victories she
achieved in other lands, The browning

York in the Manhattan opera house
