Mrs. Ford's reception by the leading musical critics of the country has been most enthusiastic, and conspicuous among ber many press notices is one from The Hcston Transcript, cultured Boston's most conservative newspaper : Mr. Ford is an interesting singer with a leaning to the French school, dramatic, passionate, intense. Her voice i of rich abilities which display themselves in all she does. Mrs. Ford is an emphatic, high soprano. The general range of her voice is sympathetic, large and telling. Her high notes are of notable breadth and clearly ringing because of the truth of their production. She sings with pathos and expression, clear, accentuation and good phrasing. You feel she has the nat ural gift of song and that she ha s Improved U well. Her pronunciation of the Ger man makes the words of such songs stand forth with a depth of tenderness that is often their characteristic charm. Her work is artistic in a sense that strong, ly points the meaning of true music, in contrast to vocalism. Her two German songs were given with impassioned warmth. That by Ries, especially the musical refrain: "0 Selige Zeit," Vasa line out-pouring of bird-like rapture; both song and singer made their mark. Of her French sons, "Les Filles dc Ca diz" was the most brilliant triumph, piquant, full of grace, vivacity and honor. Of Airs. Ford's singing the Boston Her ald says : Mrs. Ford became an instant favorite with her audience when her pure, true musical voice was heard, and no singer ever won a more honest or positive tri umph with a lioston public. The ap plaud gained in volume with the com pletion of each number, and rose to a pos itive ovation a she ended her announced numbers and returned to sing a pretty English ballad a an encore. She is cer tainly a ('harming artist, and will always have a hearty welcome in her future ap pearances.

Mrs. Ford's musical standing is so well known that it is not necessary to praise her to Cleveland people. Perhaps no higher compliment could be paid her than to say that her work did not suffer in comparison with such an acknowledged master as David Rispham Cleveland Leader, Mr. Ford' singing was admirable. She possesses a voice of much sweetness, of clear, ringing quality and of perfect intonation, which, together with a thor ough understanding of the musical ren dering and much expression, made her solo parts a notable feature of the per formance -Yew York Herald.
