Our commerclaIixed Christina.

Christmas Is the decoration dav NJ
a commercial age. Then, as on no
DINER day, we face with commission
those who have fallen in our battles
for wealth. For a moment we think
OF the thousands of children who have
no share in that easy life we give our
children, and must find the seasons
Joy in the charity dinner. Along with
the barter to which we have debased
our giving within our circle of &C.
quaintances, we play at extending the
spirit of the day to those who are
the pawns of our industrial game. The
Salvation army lass, standing cold and
numb on the street corner, collecting
funds for Christmas baskets for the
poor, reminds us Of the wreckage left
In the wake of our prosperity. We
give trife to help the poor temper
the bitterness Of the year with a
couple of hours good eating.

BODY EXHUM ED
Analysis to Be Made to Determine
 Cause of Shepard's Death
By Associated Press

Fort Valley, Ga, November 7.-The vis- cera of Fred D. Shepard, whose death last June is under investigation as the result of an order by Superior Court Judge Mathews, was taken today to At lanta by Dr. M. s. Brown for analysis by pr. Abercrombie, state chemist. The analysis, it was said, was to be made for the purpose of determining whether Shepard's death resulted from poison.
 The body was exhumed and rebured yesterday after the vital organ had been removed, and the armed guard which had been on duty at the grave since the court order was issued earlier in the week was removed.
 Solicitor General Charles II. Garrett stated tonight that pr. Abercrombie would be the most important witness be- fore the coroner's jury when IL reassem- bles November F. The solicitor stated that the laws of Georgia do not permit cmbalners to use embalming fluids that contain arsenic or mercury.
 Dr. Brown testified before the coro- ner's jury that the symptoms of Shep ards illness when he was called in indl- cated arsenic or mercurial poisoning, and at the operation performed in a Macon hospital said black spots were found or the intestines of the patient
 Solocitor Garrett asserted that the au- topsy confirmed the statements of pr. Brown as to the condition of the body
 The appearance of Will, mailed anonymously to Mrs. Alice Randall Shepard's sister. about two weeks ago, led to the investigation of Shepard's s death. At the time of Shepard's death his wife took charge of the estate. The will gives her slo,oo0 and sl0o month during her lifetime and takes away q large portion of the estate which she claimed.
 Mrs. Shepard married Shepard in De- cember of last year. Six weeks after her husbands death she married pr. F. e.f clrc lrcnrI,-lla ENla

HoUard Bulldogs
 Getting h Shape For the Panthers
By MAXWELL ALLEN

Today the Bulldogs resume practice for the remainder of their 1920 grid schedule with their fighting spirit just as good as it has even been, even. though they suffered defeat at the hands of the Mississippians The game which the Howardites are getting ready for now is the one game of the sea of the others on the schedule put to- gether, for it is their annual fracas with Birmingham Southern.
 Howard, at present, has some good material and they are all vesy apt pupils at football, but they are most of them green and inexperienced. They will have to practice hard and learn lot of football to give the fighting Methodists the proper kind of defeat that is, if they administer defeat-for the Panthers have one of the best teams in the history of the school, not only from the standpoint of weight, but also in the matter of experience o1 the players.
 Of course the Howard gridders are not absolutely without experienced men in their ranks. For instance, they have Speed Acton and Peahead Walker, two gentlemen who will be remembered around these parts and everywhere else that the Bulldogs have played for the past two years for their marvellous line plunging and their uncanny knack of skirting the ends. Blackwelder has also had some college football, while Gaylord starred in the ranks of Gen. tral High schol for two years. How ever, the Bulldogs have d whole line full of inexperienced men who for the most part are just learning the game. Afford is the only linesman who has had much experience. Of course, Me- Lane and Head have played football before, but this is Me Lanes first time at wing position and Head has only been at this job for a little over a year him : self, though he plays like person who has been. playing all of his life. How ever inexperienced they may be-. the Bulldog line has bunch of men who will fight as long as they are allowed to stay in the fray, and, besides this, they are extremely anxious to learn to play the game better
 Stanley Shane is going about the campus as restless as wild horse these days, and he is hoping with all his might that his wrist, which cracked in the game with Alabama, will get we'll quick so as to enable him to get in ana obstruct the progress of the Panther backs with his massive frame Others who are e-hopng that Shane will recover in time for this game are those Howard students who place world of confidence in this husky gentleman whenever he goes out to get in fight against one of Towards enemies. Howard doesn't look very strong at present around the line, but they have 1 a bunch of good workers and it is quite probable that the husky forwards will show some improvement at the end of two weeks.

Boorde Ready For Tilt With Ashton Donza

Freddie Boorde, local boxer, who will meet Ashton Donza of New Orleans here tomorrow night, will finish off his inten- sive training for the bout today with a light workout at the Ath- letic club. Tomorrow morning he will take things easy and will enter the ring tomorrow night in the best of physical condi- tion.
 Tommy Tompkins. who has charge Of Freddie Boorde, states that his boxer is ready and eager for the meeting, Freddie has been working hard at the F. A. c. each afternoon for almost three weeks in preparation for the bout. Ac- cording to Boorde, his wind is fine, his general condition couldn't be bettsi and. best of all, his spiris is in excel . lent shape for the match.
 Freddie has confidence in himself, anu lHdl VIII 50 ioh5 ""S No" SsA N' helping him beat Donza.
 T think I can beat this Donza chap, stated Freddie yesterday q know that he's good, and that he will be in the best of trim when he meets mo Any chap who has held the title of in ternational amateur champion knows enough not to enter the ring with q strange opponent unless he is in form for the worst kind of battle. You know you never can tell how strong your opponent will prove to be until you actually meet him. That's why 1 have trained so hard for Donza We heard he's mighty good and l have a Hsneaking notion myself that he is every bit of that.'' fs
 It will be an invasion of New Orleans boxers against Alabama boys In ad- dition to the Donza- -Boorde bout, there ' will be match between Johnny Russo, the Fighting Newsboy" of New Or leans and Ed Luke, Anniston's star fighter. This bout will occupy the place of the semi-final event. and will be for six rounds.
 Russo has fought here once against shorty Reeves In that bout, Johnny exhibited that he's there with the punch and the skill. He should make things decidedly hot for Ed Luke.
 Reports from New Orleans have 1t that Donza is about to launch tour over the south, taking on the local stars of each big city he takes in. or course. he's in good condition for the undertaking, and is in position to make things interesting for any ban tam he meets. It is not likely that Ashton is looking for much opposition in his first bout, the affair with Boorde tomorrow night, but if that's the case he's surely about ready to bump into one big surprise. Freddie's there with the opposition, as he intends showing Donza tomorrow night when the gong sounds the opening session of their 10-round scrap.

10000 Chinese x Getting Rich as

Harbin, Manchurita, Feb: 16.-Ten thousand men, chiefly Chinese. are bling up moderate fortunes, it is said, by dealing in money of the several nations contiguous to Sibe- ria. Block after blockIn the Chinese quarter are given over to the money changers, some of whom have quite elaborate establishments employing six or eight men to wait upon. GUS toners.
 Not the least source of revenue is the wide fluctuation of the ruble of the Omsk government, "Siber. skys," in relation to the "Kcrenskys," or the issue of the former Kerensky government. The ratio recently has been about 20 of the former to one of the latter. A Chinese dollar, sill yer or paper, brought from 450 to 58O of the "Siberskys."

Sues to Restrain Hubby from Church
 Habit of Heckling

Dallas, Tex, Feb. 16.--Mrs. Vera Skinner of this city does not think the church is the proper place tc discuss worldly things, and espec- ially a place where a husband should make serious threats against his wife. So she is seeking an inJunc- tion which would prohibit her hus- mand from annoying her in church or elsewhere.
 Mrs. Skinner has been separated from her husband for several months. Skinner was given per mission to visit his two children every other Sunday, and Mrs. Skin ner says he stretched this permls-. sion into following her to church and making serious threats against her. She says he sat next to her in church last Sunday "and kept telling me wasn't long for this world and put ting his hand to his hip pocket. l became so alarmed that l got one of the deacons to take me home"
 Mrs. Skinner says she fears Skin ner will do her bodily harm. She says he takes every occasion to ask k her to come back and live with him and when he refuses he makes threats like he did in the church: said Mrs. Skinner. "The church is no place for discussing worldly things and I told him so. Then he got mad and threatened my hte.'
