For the most part changes in the leaders were fractionally better, Steel common selling above 125 compared with a previous close of 124%. . American Sugar was an early feature, bettering its closing level by one point to 69. U. S. Rubber was also strong, with an advance of 1 *■> in early trading to 74%. I.arge orders received by American Locomotive were reflected soon after the opening by a gain of 1% points to 118. Dupont at 204% was close to Us record high while Fisher Body was at anew top of 113.

STEPHENSON’S HINT DENIED (Continued From Page 1) Judge Sparks overruled the objection, holding that the statement was a question, and not a declaration on the part of Inman. Inman retaliated with an objection to Kane's "grandstanding allusion.” Judge Sparks visibly was Impatient. “It is not in the record —but hurry on gentlemen.” The defense then temporarily passed Spaugh, after questioning him. Ray Johns. 44, a Sheridan farmer, the next talesman examined, admitted that he had an opinion in the case and Inman's challenge for cause was sustained. Bert Overdorf replaced Johns, and forthwith admitted that he, too, had a fixed opinion. He was challenged for cause by the defense, and was replaced by Charles A. Allen, a farmer. Judge Takes Hand During the questioning of Ollie Kinder by the State so much difficulty was experienced putting acro:| the idea of "reasonable doubt” that Judge Sparks was obliged to take a hand. Kinder first said that he agreed with the law that a defendant should be proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, and later he declared he would require positive proof of guilt before he would vote for conviction. “Would you require the proof to go beyond all reasonable doubt and be unreasonable?” Judge Sparks asked. “Yes,” he replied. Both the Judge and Kane quizzed Kinder further, but seemed unable to give him a concise idea of the meaning of the term reasonable doubt. So he was passed tentatively by the State. Noon Recess Kane began examination of T. R. Downs. Noblesville, stock buyer, in chair one, shortly before the noon recess. Os the twelve now in the box, Jacob Dawson, Grant Carey, W. O. Inman and Thomas all farmers, ave weathered so much questioning, hope was expressed they will finally qualify. Throughout the morning session iStephenson and his two co-defend-ants were in jovial mood, and did not seem to hs taking as much interest in the questioning as heretofore. They were still unguarded by any deupty. The courtroom is as peaceful as any place can be imagined, the tension of a few days ago seemingly having disappeared. The Indianapolis detectives, however, were reinforced by the presence of Harry McGlenn, mnking four who are about the courthouse. It has been learned threats have been made against Prosecutor William H. Remy. Late Thursday, names of Will H. Adams, former reporter of the Supreme Court and Newman T. Miller, former slate fire marshal, wore mention by Inman in suestioning talesmen as men who might have "aj> proached” them on the case. All .talesmen denied they had talked to the two. .

CPUnni CAPTAIN JOHN q SMITH —A Romantic t t y Q Figure in Early Amer--11 H/ 1 O ican History. . Copyright. Compton's Tlctured Encyclopedia Feature Servic*.
f*;
Captain Smith, as champion of the C liristians, killed three Turkish champions in turn. At this period (abou t 1600) the full suit of war harness had already Rone out of use for common soldiers, but was still worn on special occasions by nobles, and as you see here, by chosen champions.
I r-pi J HE story of the life of Capt. j I John Smith, as told by him-L—-.ii sell’, reads more like a tale from the “Arabian Nights” than like a true biography. According to his own account he ran away from his home in England at an early age, to seek adventure. While traveling through France hte was robbed and left helpless in a forest, but was saved from death by a kindly peasant. Sailing from France with some pilgrims bound for the Holy Land, he was thrown overboard by i his companions, because they regarded him—a Protestant heretic | and unbeliever —as responsible for | the storm by which their lives were threatened. He saved himself from the sea. however, and later fought in a/ war against the Turks, three of whom he killed in a single combat. He was afterward captured and sold into slavery by the Turks, but made his escape by killing the guard placed over him. After wandering through Europe, he returned to England in 1605, and joined an expedition which was preparing to go to America to found the colony of Virginia. During his voyage Smith’s life was in danger. He was accused of conspiracy, and at one time members of the party prepared- to hang him. His life finally was spared, but he was kept under restraint until after the expedirtrth reached. the James River. Then it was found that Smith was one of the councilors who had been appointed by the Virginia company in England to govern the colony. Soon he was forced by the incompetence of others to take the lead in the Jamestown settlement. He compelled all to work by his famous order. “He who will not work shall not eat.” He forced the Indians to supply the starving colonists with corn, and at the same time kept the savages In order. Soon after the settlers landed, Captain Smith had a very exciting adventure. It was generally believed .that the "South Sea" (Pacific Ocean) lay just beyond- the mountains, so with a few companions Smith’ sailed up the Chickahominy River In search of lt. When the stream became too shallow to go farther by boat, he landed and with one Indian pushed through the forest. Soon j he was set upgn by a band of hostile j Indians and made captive. They j were about to shoot him with their I arrows when he arroused th°ir curl- i osity by showing them his pocket compass, and they spared his life. ! After taking him to many of their I villages, they finally brought him j before their chief, Powhatan, a tall j stalwart man dressed In a coonskin j robe. Presently the Indians seized | Smith, bound him. and laid his head j upon a stone, while a warrior stood ready to slay him with a club. At this moment, according to Smith’s j account, Powhatan's little daughter | Pocahontas sprang forward, clasped i her arms about the captive’s neck, j and prevailed upon her father to j spare his life and send him back to | Jamestown. The truth of this) romantic story is doubted by many, j but the value of Captain Smith's services to the colony is acknowl- j edged by all. While out on one of bis many ex- ! ploring expeditions Captain Smith was wounded by an explosion of j gun-powder, and in 1609. he returned disabled to England, and never again set foot on Virginia soil. After re- ! covering front his wound, however, j he explored and charted the coast j

of Southern Canada and northern United States, to which at his request Prince Charles gave the name of "New England.” He also spent much time in writing, and although his works are not fully reliable, his “True Relation of Virginia," his “Travels,” and his “General History of Virginia” still furnish us much valuable information concerning tho Jamestown settlement. Doubtless Captain Smith was something of a kindly braggart and had an over-vivid imagination. But most certainly he was also a very active, courageous, resourceful gentlemen—"ever hating baseness, sloth, pride, and Indignity more than any dangers”—and to him more than any other one man was due the success of the first colony of Virginia.
