The essence of a three-act play is crowded into thirty minutes. It is asserted that Miss Alda has the freshest and finest -oice that has been heard in vaudeville in many a day. The added attraction will be Sybil Vane, who has sung in opera fre- quently. Her greatest success has been with the Royal Opera, London. She is a coloratura soprano.
