ALEXANDER SALVINI IS DEAD.
Talented Son of the Great Italian
ACTOR nreathes His Inst.


FLORENCE, Italy, Dec 15.-Alexander
Salvlnl, the son of Tomaso Salvini, the great
Italian actor. is dead. Salvini died of
intestinal tuberculosis. The newspapers
publish eulogistc obituaries of the deceased
actor.
Alexander Salvlni was born in Rome,
December q. 1861. He was the son of the
Italian tragedian, Tomaso Salvini, and
went to school in Naples. Florence and
Genoa. II was intended that he should be-
come civil engineer and In 1881 he came
to the United States for that purpose
with ChiZzola, who was manager of Rossi's
American tour. But instead of looking for
a place to develop his engineering abili-
ties, young SalVlni travelled with the Rossl
company and aftcrward settled in New
York to study English In order to be able
to use that language on the stage. His
first appearance was at the Union Square
theater in New York IN Clara Morris COM
pany and he afterward spent two seasons
with Margaret Mather. playing Romeo, Or
lando, Rudolph in Leah" Claude Mel
notte and Clifford In "nhe Hunchback. 4"
The older Salvini came to the United States
in 1888 and his son joined his company,
playing in Some of his fathers pieces A.
NJ. Palmer engaged young Salvini for his
Madison Square Theater company. After
three seasons at the Madison Square the
ater Salvni again joined his father in
tour of the United States, and after the
began a starring tour in America. For
some time past young Salvini has been Sc
riously i'll at Monte Carinn, the home of
the elder Salvini, near Florence, Italy.
His wife, formerly Miss Maude Dixon
who was the leading lady of his company
and to whom he was recently married,
has been in constant attendance upon the
sufferer. DArtasnan. IN the Three
Guardsmen," was considered to be young
Salvini's most attractive part. He was a
handsome man, imbued with dramatic en-
thusasm, and great favorite in New
York.
