That could have been probably caused by a blow of a fist which knocked the lip against the teeth. The other external abrasion was found
on the left inner side of the elbow. and might have been caused by

'Cross-examined by Mr. Prior, for the defence, witness sald that cases of this nature were not common and occurred once in every thou- sand. In this case witress said tat although the deceased had had a boxing career, death might have been caused by one of the blows before, but the reason that he did not die while boxing was because he was prepared and alert. while on this occasion he was not.

In view of the critical situation in China to-day, and the brutality of the Japanese aggressors in in- discriminately bombing the de- fenceless non-combatants of the Capital and other cities" of the country, it is doubtful whether the Chinese will celebrate the Double Tenth Festival this year with the enthusiasm of previous years.
The Sino-Japanese war has cast a gloom over what would have been an enjoyable occasion, and it has
the been suggested that money to be spent in celebrating the anniversary should be used for the relief of the wounded soldiers and war refugees in North China.
