D. c. MOURNS DEATH
OF MAUD POWELL
Passing Of Greatest Woman
violinist Felt as Per-
s0nai Loss.

There was a feeling OF a genuine
pc rsonal loss to Washington In the
death OF Maud Powell. greatest OF
women violinists, who died suddenly
at Uniontown. Pa. on January s. or
acute indigestion.
Maud Powell's father for a number
OF years was superintendent OF the
Washington Public School. and al
though at that time she was already
a student In New York. she scame TO
this city for repeated visits.

her fifty-second year, the mus'cal
world loses at the zenith OF her ca

were not circumscribed by the acct

will miss an artist who for forty
years has triumphsd on the concert
platforms OF Europe. America. and
Africa, whose name was known from
Boston to johannesburg. from Petro-
grad to London.

INTEREST
IN MUSIC AWAKENED

A great change has been observ-
able in recent years in the Japanese
attitude toward. music-a transition
from Indifference to keen interest
particularly in Western music.
1t was several years ago that Emma
Calve, the famous singer, had a
chance to land at Yokohama, when
the Toyko people were so insensible
to music or were so poor that ar
rangements could not be made to
hear this distinguished diva in Japan.
Today, however, almost any foreign
artist is welcomed and acclaimed, and
rarely fails to score reasonable
success, and the remark by Mr.. Cham
berlain, assuredly pertinent at the
time he wrote the "Things Japanese"
that music is rarely the subject Of
serious talk among Japanese parties.
is, therefore. gradually losing it's
ground.

FEBRUARY COLUMBIA
RECORDS ANNOUNCED

February Columbia records have
just been announced by J. Edgar Rob-
inson. OF 1906 G. street northwest.
Percy Granger, who has been sub
titled "the play-boy OF the music
world" has three new selections on
one record for the Columbia Grafo-
nola.
or Percy Granger II is said:
He Is young. He is poetic. He is
dynamic. He is modern OF moderns
in his compositions and a splendid in
terpreter OF the classics, although he
particularly leans to dance forms and
rhapsodies in this direction. He has
fingers like steel mallets, which make
his piano recordings remarkably
clear, and he has unbounded tempera-
ment, which adds to all that he does.
His present record, consisting of
nat Minor" Grieg's shimmering
Spring" and one of his own original
sailors chanties, gives one an oppor-
tunity of hearing all the pianoforte
effects of which Granger Is capable.
II fs q record of variegated interest"
To prove that "old tunes" are new
tunes" to the coming generation,
Hulda Lashanska has revived the
ever-lovely Lullaby" from the opera
"Erminie," by Jakobowski. Nine. La
shanka's beautiful soprano voice is
making this charming melody OF
thirty years ago as appealing as II
was at that time, when "Erminie"
was given over 200 performances in
New York under one roof.
The Lullaby" from "Erminie" is
given with orchestral accompaniment
on a ten-inch Columbia record.

"SISI" MUSIC TUNEFUL.

MILAN. Jan. 23.-The premiere of
Mascagni's operetta, "Sisi," at the
Quirino in Rome, was received with
varying interest probably on account
Of the uneven libretto. The hrst two
acts are interesting and colorful, but
the third act falls fat, as all the wit
and character of the previous acts Is
suddenly abandoned. The music is
tuneful throughout and the scoring
musicianly, and in parts striking. 1t
is said that the entire score was
composed in a fortnight.

A. L. Lovett, entomologist, and H.
P. Barss, plant pa%thologist Of the
Oregon Agricultural College have co.
operated in the preparation of a brief
bulletin describing the program OF
sprays required for the control of diff
ferent orchard pests and diseases
troublesome in the state. Many grow
ers will take up systematic spraying
this year who have paid little atten-
tion to this in the past. They realize
that success in commercial fruit
growing requires the combating OF
many orchard enemies, and expert
ence has shown that successful pre-
vention or control requires a know
ledge of the right time to spray. Spray
put on at any old time when the gro
wer gets ready is usually almost q
complete waste of time, effort and
money, while wisely directed spray
programs result in a truly remark

which can top the market in price,
