FaFmous Ore era Singer

Stockholm, Feb. 1.-THE lat
Christine Nilsson, CT Coun. ess Cas-,
'e Mirandi, famous Swedish opcr,
singer, called by many the "s2con
swedish nightingale" left an cs.a
in England valued at G12O.OOJ. Thi
IS disclosed by her Will which, accord
mig to Stockholm papers, has jus
been opened in London.
The value of her Swedish estate
said to be of considerable size, is NJ
yet known. The Swedish press, how
ever, asserts that estimates of he
wealth published in many for.ig
papers placing her fortune at So.
100000, were grossly exaggerated
They add that she was noted in lii,
for her great. hearted generosity an(
that the total of her gifts are known
to have amounted to a large fortune
OF her English estate, the C untes
bequeaihed $4,000 to the Royal Mu
steal Academy of Stockholm and &2.
600 to the Conservatory of Music o
Paris, both to be used as funds fo
scholarships. The will includes leg
acies of various amounts totaIlin
$4,000 to various friends.
The remainder of the English es
tate is left to the singers step -daugh
ter, Countess Rose Casa de Mirand;
Her objects of art, paintings, etc.
the singer left to four Swedish mu
seums.
The delay in opening the singer
will is said to have been occasioneC
1y the fact that Christine Nilsson

ried.
The best legal opinion in default Of
an actual court decision is that wo-
man may take any name she chooses
provided there is no intent to defraud.
There are no written words which
requires a woman in Connecticut to
take her maiden's name after mar
riage. Lawyers, however, say that it
will have to be determined if mar
ried woman retaining her maiden
name can vote under the maiden name
or obtain a passport from the gov
ernment.

ASKS PROBE OF
POISON PRICES
By Hugh w. Roberts.

Washington, Nov. 23.-Inquiry by
the department. of justice and the fed
eral trade commission into the COM
plant from all Southern states that
spectators for selfish purposes had
acquired control Of the supply Of cal.
cium arsenate, the only known insecti-
eide for use against the boil weeyil,
was deManded today by Senator VIII
Cotton producers, on the advice Of
the department. Sof agricuiture, had
prepared to make extensive use Of cal
,esum arsenate when they found to
their dismay, that the supply was lin.
tied and the price relatively exorbi-
tant. Secretary Wallace of the depart.
ment of agriculture, when apprised
Of the facts, replied to Senator Har.
ris, in part, as follows:
II do not see how I can take steps
TO increase the supply, or decrease
The price. We nave no information as
10 whether a combination exists
among manufacturers whereby the
prices of calcium arsenate are con-
trolled, but if there is such combina-
lion, it would be matter for consid-
Grafton by the department of justice,
or in a proper case, by the federal
trade commission.
II am informed that there has been
Z recent and quite sharp increase in
the price of white arsenic and a very
large increase since last January
This, Of course, means a correspond
ing rise in the price of calcium ar
senate. The claim is made that this
. due TO shortage of white arsenic
in the United States market, to cer-
tain extent, might be true, as a very
short supply was produced in United
States smelters last year. I am in
formed that the Canadian output has
been contracted for by Australia. This
further complicates the situation"
It was at the suggestion of Secre-
sary Wallace that Senator Harris put
the case of prospective users of the
only insecticide recommended by the
department of agriculture in the
lands of the department Of Justice.
