FANNY ELssLER.-Most of US remember
Mademoiselle Fanny EIsser, who set the fash
Ion, now SO common, of quitting European for
American boards. Her chOregraphic career was
| not long, but it was extremely brilliant Her
beauty, her grace, her elegance, the marked
Individuality Of her dancing, her wonderful
talents rs mime, and her charming, sprightIy,
expressive face, made her universally popular.
Her fame, perhaps, acquired new interest to
some persons from the popular rumor which
assoc ated her name with the ll-fated Duke de
Reichstadt, (sOn Of Napoleon and Maria Louise }
although she invariably assured her more in
innate friends that it an idle piece of gossip,
without the least foundation. 1t was late In
1884 that Fanny Elssler made her appearance i'm
Paris, and the history of her engagement is a
rather curious bit Of stage history. Fanny, with
her sister Therese, was playing ut London when
her fame reached France, aud manager of the
Grand Opera posted over TO see on what foun-
datiOn the rumors were raised. He came, saw,
and was conquered. MdIle. Fanny Elssler was
very anxious for an engagement at Paris, bu {:
Mdlle. Therese was afraid OF that city and these
indecisons rendered the manager negotiations
a very delicate affair. While they were ysciI-
lating between small salary, very irregularly
paid, at London, and eight thousand dollars,
and punctuality, in Paris, he gave them grand
banquet at the Clarendon Hotel, and served
them up, with the dessert, a silver dish con-
tanning forty thousand dollars worth of Jewels
and diamonds, which was handed round TO the
guests as if 1t contained but so many pea nuts
The sisters selected each one Of the most modes
trinkets in the dish-though these bagatelles
were worth two thousand dollars apiece-and,
to the qualification of the manager, signed an
engagement, after Mdlle. Therese's fears had
been satisfied by the insertion of O provision that
the engagement of three years might be ended
at will at the expiration of the first fifteen
months. Mdlle. Therese did not come to
America with her sister, and we are informed 4
| that we lost u great deal by her absence, as
Mile. Fanny was never 80 brilliant as when
her sister was at her side! The two different
| talents completed each other and made har-
monious group Of an exquisite perfection
Both Of these eminent dancers have retired
from the stage, the possessors Of very large
fortunes. Mdlle. Therese has been tho wife
| (by "morganatic msrriage') Of the Prince
| Royal Of Prussia, and Mdlle. Fanny Rlssler
