Chamber Music by The
Flonzaley Quartet.

In these days many people flock to
concerts given by large orchestras
and the bigger the orchestra the more
they want TO go. They are carried
away by the volume of sound and the
grand crashing of climaxes.
When some of these people are
asked whether they like chamber
music some of them don't even know
what Is meant. Chamber music is
a form of art that does not make
much noise, but is nevertheless well
worth while. BY chamber music is
meant music composed for q small
group of instrumentn, whether they be
two three, four. five or more instru-
ments: each instrument having spe-
cial part written for it. not as in an
orchestra, when twenty or thirty violins
play the same notes. For this reason
chamber music is much harder to per-
form we'll and requires very fine players
and the quality OF each instrument itself
Evening star., 1924-01-13

is also very important, as well as the
skill of the player, TO produce q well
balanced effect.
AL the great composers have writ
ten chamber music-mostly for string
Quartets-and have put some of their
noblest ideas into this form of COM
position.
On the part Of the hearer, chamber
music requires perhaps a little more
attention and concentration than or
chestral music, and the pleasure re-
ceived IS more Of the intellect than
of the emotions, although all music
appeals to some extent to the latter.
However. there is plenty of chamber
music which is filled with gayety
and joy and the interest of hearing
each separate instrument weaving its
part in and out is very great.
The FlonZaley Quartet Is one Of the
outstanding quartet organizations Of
the present day. 1t is to be heard un-
der the auspices Of the Washington So
ciety Of Fine Arts. Its first concert of
the season will be at the Central High
School. January Fl. at $50 pm.

New York Orchestra Monday.

The next concert to be given by the
Now York Symphony Orchestra. un-

tomorrow evening at $3.50 o'clock
In the auditorium OF the Central High

The program will be as follows:

lioz); prelude to act 8, 'Lohengrin,"
and "Spinning Chorus" from THE
Flying Dutchman" tWagner): two
Russian folk songs by Liadow and

lions" by Johann Strauss.
One of the most interesting fea-
lures of these concerts Is the ex-
planatory talk which Mr.. Damrosch
gives before the compositions are
played by the orchestra.

CHARRED BONES
 AND 2 ARRESTS
 SOLVE MURDER
Brothers Confess Killing 1S- -Year-Old South Car
 Olina Farmer
(By Associated Press.)

t- DILLON, S. O., Sept. 5.-With the finding of fragments of charred human bones and teeth in swamp near here, and the arrest of two men, the mys- tery of the disappearance August 22 of Earle Harreli. 1S-year-old Dillon county farmer, apparently has been solved, according to officials. ., T
 Tracy and Lewis Powers. brothers, living in the lower part of the county, have been lodged in jail on charges of murder and are said to have con fessed killing young Harrell and burn ing of his body In their reputed con- fession, the Powers, brothers, are alleged to have said that two women were in volved in the circumstances that led up to the killing. iv :.
 Harrell went to the Powers home the night of August 9 and was never seen again. State Detective w. w. Rodgers was assigned to the case by Governor Thomas G. Mcleod, when local Offi- cials requested assistance in clearing up the mystery. x -f.
 Rodgers, it was said today, learned that the tobacco storehouse and barn on the Powers place had burned down the night Harrell vanished. A careful search of the ashes revealed what ap- peared to be bits of flesh, but no bones. Searching further, Detective Rodgers and local officials found an improvised furnace in the hollow of a cypress tree in nearby swamp, and sitting the ashes in the furnace, they discovered fragments of bone and teeth.

member she was wearing knickers, and they told me they had motored here from Tuscaloosa, where they had been introduced"
 Relatives of the dead girl declared Friday that she was not engaged to be married to Edwards. They revealed that she expected visit from Leonard Kyle of Tuscaloosa, rival of Edwards, on the night she met her death.
 The police learned that Edwards mailed a letter to Decatur shortly be- fore the killing. If it can be located after its arrival there, they believe it will throw light on the case.
 It also was learned that Edwards and Miss Lee went on a shopping tour Thursday morning. During this tour, officers were told, Miss Lee showed him telegram from Demopolis saying she had been appointed as teacher there. This telegram infuriated Edwards and probably led up, to the shootinge say the police.
