The editor of a mining camp newspaper went to Denver to hear a clever singer, and in a lengthy review of the opera says of her, "As a singer she can just wallop the hose off anything that ever wagged a jaw on the boards. From her ' clear .• bird-like upper notes she would counter away down on the brass racket, and then cushion back to a sort of spiritual treble which made every man in the audience imagine every hair on his head was the golden string of a celestial harp, over which angelic fingers were sweeping in the inspiring old tune of "Sally, put the kettle on." Here she would rest awhile, trilling like an enchanted bird, and then hop in among the upper notes again with a git-up-and* git vivacity that jingled the glass pendants on the chandeliers and elicited a whoop of pleasure from every galoot in the mob."
