REFUSING A FORTUNE
Count Gives It Away
Budapest, Feb. 19. Count Joseph Tisza, grandson of Hungary's former Premier, Count Tisza, has caused a sensation by refusing an Inheritance of one million pengos and a half.
The young count, who is eigh- teen years old, and is preparing for matriculation at the college of De- brecen, has resigned the fortune in favour of the Budapest National Theatre's pension fund
The fortune was bequeathed to Count Tisza by Mrs. Bolony, whose husband, the former director of the Kolozsvár Theatre, was Count Tisza's godfather. As there was no relationship between the two f milies, the relatives of Mrs. Bo- long have attacked the will..
Count Tiaza states that his re- fusal of the fortune is approved by his whole family, as one of the conditions of the will demand rls assumption of the name of Bo- lony.
