Notable Musical Concert.
An outstanding drawing room func
tion of the holiday season was the
musical given by Miss Patt Adams at
the charming and historic Housftm
home on Thursday evening.
About thirty guests enjoyed the
lovely hospitality and fine musical pro
'gram offered by iCbas. E. Burnham,
the well known baritone and eminent
vocal pedagogue of Asheville. His
list of compositions ranged from the
several classical to modern songs, and
the composers represented were:
Bruno Huhn, W. H. Hammond.
Oley Speaks, Wm. Berwald, Ethelbert
Nevin. Ernest Ball; Kennedy Russell
ami Malloy. , |
Mr. Burnham not only charmed
with a warm, rich, colorful voice, but
he displayed rare poetic appreciation
and true dramatic entensity.
The accompaniments as might be ex
pected from Mrs. Leslie Oorrell, were
rich in harmonic color and were more
than a mere background.
Miss Fannie Person Kudge. of Mon
roc. rendered charmingly and with
-*■ a most exquisite touch and technique
a piano solo, a Fantasie by Oppo Mai
ling.
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Sabin, of
Asheville, were honor guests of the
evening with Mr. Burnham.
After the rendition of the music
program, a delicious salad course was
served by the hostess.

BOY DARTS OUT INTO
STREET AND IS BI N OVER
U. B. Hammitt Injured When He
Jumps From Wagon and Darts Di
rectly- in Front of Tourist Auto.
U. B. Hammitt, the ten-year-old
son of Mr. and Mrs. A. K. Hammitt.
of Janies street, was run over by
an automobile today shortly aftter
noon by S. R. Sallada, of Jersey Shore,
Pa„ who was touring south to visit
his sister in Florida.
A hurried examination of the boy
at the Coneord Hospital revealed the
fact that, unless there are internal
injuries, lie is not seriously injured.
No bones were broken.
According, to Mr. Sallada and eye
witnesses, the boy had been riding on
a wagon down Corbin street toward
Depot and w'uen the wagon reached
the point where James street branches
off Corbin, he jumped from the wagon
and at once darted out into the street.
Mr. Sallada had come up behind
the wagon and was preparing to pass
it when the boy suddenly ran out in
front of him. So close was lie to
the little Hammitt boy that lie was
. unable to stop soon enough and the
automobile struck 'aim, one wheel
passing over his body.
At first ( lt was thought thnt the
boy must lft Seriously injured. The
car. a seven passenger Hudson, is
heavy and it was thought that the
weight of it must have hurt him
! badly. He was rnsbc.l to the hos
pital where an examination was made.
1 Mr. SHllada. immediately after the
accident, called at the police station
und acquainted them with the facts
and is remaining over until it is

THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
SUIT IS FRIENDLY
ONE, SEELY SAYS
Reiterates View of Father-In-Law
as to Settlement Ont of Court.
Miami, Fla., Dec. 31.—F. L. Seely,
of Aidieville, N. C„ who**-will suit
against his father-in-law, E. W.
Grove, president of the Paris Medi
cine Company yesterday was an
nounced in St. Louis, today reiterated
the statement of Mr. Grove that the
claim would be settled out of court.
Mr. Seely, with his wife and four
children arrived in Miami early this
week on their yacht-houseboat. "North
i State.”
Mr. Seely declared here that the
claim, involving property valued at
■ between Jii.OOO.OoO and $6,000,000
- was a friendly suit taken while his
father-in-law was alive in order to
avoid possible prolonged litigation af
ter Mr. Grove’s death. Mr. Seely said
that the ease was entirely a family
i affair and could be settled out of
court.
“This step was taken because legal
limitations would probably nffeet my
right to testify on certain matters
after the death of my father-in-law.”
Mr. Seely declared. “It is a friendly
[ suit to determine validity of acer
■ tain agreement made nearly a quarter
century ago, the terms of which Mr.
Grove later tried to change.
Says He Built Up Business.
“The facts are that in 1902 the
business of the Paris Medicine Com
pany was a small one when I entered
the firm and became manager. At
that time my father-in-law made an
agreement with me, embodying it in
his will, that if I remained with him
'find built up the business, I oould
have at his death either the business
or other property he might have,
equaling in value that of the medicine
company.”
He said that rapid expansion fol
lowed and that Mr. Grove insisted on
retaining active managements, and
that his father-in-law later destroyed
the will in question. ,
"This was several years ago, nnd
although lie has never said he did not
intend to carry out—the original agree
ment. as a matter of protection for
myself and family X decided to start
the suit during his lifetime in order
to get an adjudication to prevent liti
gation after his death," Mr. Seely said.'
“It will be a friendly proceeding and
may possibly be settled out of court
entirely.”

At a turbulent session in the Broad

- noon, in which all proceedings were

r Orthodox Rabbis declined to make

i j A resolution adopted at the end of

t ing him than did the original action

r forth that unless such action was
f taken the 1,000.000 orthodox Jews in
the United States would contribute
1 to the cause, of Zionism through other
channels.

Dr. Wise, prior to the action by
the Union of Orthodox Rabbis, issued
i a statement yesterday in which he
said that he had not declared that
Jews must accept the teachings of
Christianity. He unequivocally as
• firmed, toe declared, “Jesus was a his
toric being, Jesus was not a God
but a man, Jesus was not a Christian
by a Jew.’’
The resolution finally adopted stat

“undermine the very basis of Juda

Judaism in Amerjca, and lead the
younger generation on away which
leads to conversion and intermar

Both .Tews and Christians, it con

address as a step nearer for Judaism
toward Christianity. The cause of
Judaism is in dgnger, it is declared,
With Hr. Wise as chairman of the
United Palestine fund, since under
those circumstances orthodox .Tews
