The cnce famous and petted Tar
lioni the Incompatible dancer and tight
rope walker, died some days agO in
. Philadelphia almshousc without dis
closing her Identity. For years she had
been an inmate Of the institution. and
the romance Of her life was BROUGHT
To light by the visit Of French noble
man.
Taglionis family name was Beran-
ger. She was the daughter OF Letetro
De Beranger. colonel OF the veille Cards
Of Napoleon I, and was born at Rouen.
Normandy, in 1924. Her parents came
TO this country while she was a child
and settled In New Orleans. where she
made her debut on the American stage.
While still child she Travelled through
Europe. and had the honor of being in
vited to Queen victoria's palace 10 per-
form her wonderful feats before the
royal family.
II was Taglioni's great boast in her
old age that she sat several times on
the knees Of the then youthful queen
Of Great Britain. She also won the ap-
plause and admiration of the emperor
OF Germany, who pronounced her the
most graceful creature he had ever
seen.
Mile. Beranger later Travelled with n
manager. and before completing her
teens had acquired large fortune. At
the age Of 20 she again visited Amer
lea, and here fell In love with and mar
ried Col. Andrew Parker, o wealthy
merchant Of Savannah. During the
civil war she accomplished the most
wonderful feats to aid the Confederate
army, and at one time rescued her hus-
band from prison by Disgusting herself
as a peasant boy. AT the age of 40
Taglioni. after losing her husband, her
four children and her fortune, again
appeared on the stage. but soon after
ward met with an accident while walk
Ing tightrope which compelled her
finally to abandon her profession.
She later married NJ. Wise, Q well-to-
do French nobleman, and lived per-
manently in New York and Philadel-
phia. But at his death her resources
became limited. and year after year her
income less. In 1898. deformed and

RUSSIAN SAMAvARS.
Witches and Fairies, According to
Old Folklore, Are Interested.

In the growing popularity OF a sam
cvar. both rs an ornament and an nd-
junct To the breakfast table, the natural
desire Is To possess Russian samovar
as distinct from one manufactured In
some other part of the world. The pur-
chaser will do WE'LL therefore, to note
the marks which stamp the Russian
article as genuine.
In the first place. as the manufacture
OF sRmovars In the dominions Of the
ear IL reserved exclusively to the gov
ernment, the imperial crest will be
found stamped upon every genuine Rus
sian tea urn. The reason why the gov
ernment engages In this industry IL
that n samovar may be within the pur-
chasing power Of the humblest peasant.
II is regarded as public necessity In
Russia. and IL sold by weight and at
the actual cost OF manufacture. OF
course. there are many grades. from
those Of simplest pattern tc others
Of gold and silver. worth thousands of
dollars, and made for the court or
wealthy mobiles. But good brass samo-
var, with bowl and tray to match, will
cost In Russia about 500. and imported
into the United States double that sum.
Another test OF genuine Russian
Ing apparatus. II n spirit lamp Is the
method employed. then. unless II has
been obviously adapted, the samovar
is an imitation. Those made In Rus
sia are all heated with charcoal.
But Ia many people. and especially to
readers who are familiar with Russion
novels. In which the Bamoyar Is per-
potually In bubbling evidence. II may
be- news to learn that the use Of the
samovar is n comparatively modern
Russian custom. There are still to be
found peasants In Russia who deplorc
its introduction with the words, Holy
Russia has never been the same since
we have so many samovars."
For all that, samovars are to be
found In almost every house and hovel
Of the empire, and sufficient time has
elapsed for some quaint superstitlons
to enshrine them In the eyes Of the
peasantry. A Russian OF the humblest
order. for instance, will not light n
new samovar unles II has been first
blessed by the priest. Otherwise the
witch of the Winds might keep blow
inC the flame out. and the water would
never stay Mt the boiling point In
some parts of the country. for n similar
reason. n is not considered advisable
to keep the snmovgr too highly pol
ished. Spirits and elves. like human
beings. are presumed To have their con-
ceits. and they might be attracted To n
hut where well-burnished-up sanio-
VAR would serve the purpose Of look
Ing glass
As to the drinking of tea. for which
the samovar Is In as constant Use as
the Ice pitcher Is with us. what we un-
dcrstand az Russian tea would scarcely
be recognized by n native as such. In
the first place. Russian makes strong
decoctlon Of the leaves. which he keeps
warm In n pot on the top Of the samo-
var. Then whenever he feels like taxi
Ing n drinf. which is about 81 times In
the "a hours, he pours small quantity
of the tannin decoction into glass,
mixes In sugar. sometimes jam. and
heaven knows what else besides. fills
mp with boiling water. and swallows
down. Washington Star.
