The weather has been paying its
regular round Of frost and now prom
ises rain and warm.
Gathering Is about completed. The
cold snap made every one get hustle
on. Corn and cotton crop is light.
Peas are fairly good. Plenty Of oats
should be put in to balance the short
corn crop. Some say hold cotton for
better prices, but this would be quite
risky as long as it sells above ten
cents.
Some OF our r. F. DIS. are contem-
plating an excellent plan for making

Cold Weather Helps Business.

Bradstreet says cold weather has
greatly stimulated many lines of re-
tail trade hitherto inclined to lag,
notably in this respect being heavy
weight clothing, shoes and footwear.
That the early advent of snow and
frost has done some damage is evi-
dent in reports of injury to fruit or
chards, vines and tobacco plants at
the West. and rumors of frost damage
to cotton at the South.
The railways seem to be finding in
creased difficulty in handling the traf-
fic offering and fears of future great
congestion are expressed.

BOARDS PECULIAR ACTION

The fact that big Cy" Macdonald
captain OF the Central High football
eleven. and one OF the best all-arOund
athletes that have represented the
schools IN this city. has been barred by
the tuter-Hish School board OF faculty
athletic advisors pending further in
Vestieation into mis- amateur standing
has fallen like thunderbolt into the
. street camp. AS it is hardly a week
until the Central-TechnicaI champion
ship game. which Will probably decide
The title holder for this year, il has
Cas-; d damper on The hopes Of the Dark
Blue and White rOOterS.
Not only has 10 nOJICcably dampened
The Grdor % the Central High adherents,
but il has raised a storm of protest
against the action. as il IS said that 50
lar not one iOta OF proof has been
found 10 substautidte the charges
against the popular idol.
Basis of Charges
Several DAYS ago. c. w Kelly. for
merry OF Princeton. but now member
OF the faculty, and representative of
the athletic advisory board at Central,
was asked by member OF the same
board IN rival school 70 look into Mac
nOnalds case, a. il was thought that
the big fellow hau played summer bali"
during the season just passed. Mr.
Kelly, VINO has always been held in
The highest esteem by the inter-high
hoard, investigated the matter thorough
~ and earnestly and reported THAI he
could find nothing in the history of
Macdonald that warranted him being
barred on the charge preferred.
So Iar, according tc reports. there Eas
been absolutely no definite proof that
the boy accepted money iCr his services
but u Is COuteuucd by those VINO are
said To be pushing the affair that his
case looks black. Tor the reason that
most OF last summer, he played on the
Winchester CNa.) team, with men who,
II is also alleged did receive money.
Ignored Mr.. Kelly.
II was after Mr.. Kelly had made his
Investigations anu had reported "a
the inter-high board. that MacDo17ld
was barred by a vote OF two TO three.
This means that the Western and
Technical athletic advisors, both east
their ballot against the Central man.
Tor there are but three men on the
board.
When the announcement OF AIacDOn-
aid barring was made yesterday morn
ing the pupils OF the Central school
were loud In their denunciatlons or the
action.
Mr. Wilson has become interested in
the matter, and stated that he had
laid the matter before Superintendent
chancellor. Of the Washington public
schools, and the suggestion had been
made TO leave the case 10 the Superin-
Ieudent and any other two prominent
business men in the District
The affair has become so serious al
Central that there il talk of that school
dropping out of the league, as did Bust
ness and Eastern some time ago. The
majority of the pupils. however, seem %
be against this step, and II is said that
already, a petition IS being gotten up by
them 10 prevent any such action on the
part OF those 80 inclined.

Teams Considered
In Their Entirety

Considering the teams as a whole,
Princeton's strength IS more Of
known quantity than Corneirs. Both.
however, are playing football right
up 10 the limit OF the new rules.
Both are well yersed in the forward
pass. the double pass. and the on
side kick. Both maxi a speciality OF
end running and OF dashes just out
side the tackle. Both have shown
remarkable team work for so early
IN the season. Both have been tu-
tored by many and excellent coaches.
Yet the Princeton system. although
progressive this year, is older than
Cornell's-indeed, historic IN football.
