Mrs. Stoner, the mother of the now
famous child prodigy, Winfired Stoner,
who knew the first book of the Aeneid
by heart when she was twelve years
old, explains as a part of her creed
that the only true joy in life is doing
something for some one else. Con-
sidering how Mrs. Stoner has cap
italized her child's faculties, has toted
her over the country to be exhibited
for money, has sold millions of copies
OF a book describing the achievements
OF her child, and has turned every
intimate fact of the little girls life
into money-making publicity, one
may be justified in little skepticism
concerning Mrs. Stoner's complete
surrender to altruistic activities. Her
creed may be to do something for
somebody but her greed seems to be
to do everything to everybody-to get
money from them,

NEGRO TROOPERS WITH SMILES FACED DEATH
 WITHOUT FALTERLNG
C9eputlican A. p Leased Wirel

-
 FIELD HEADQUARTERS, Mexico, N. M)-American negro troopers faced almost certain death at Carrizal with smiles in their eyes and slang on their lips and they burst into song once or twice as they fought their grim fight against odds. This was the story told by Captain Lewis $. Mercy when he arrived at field headquarters today.
 For forty-five minutes the men fought, joking among themselves all the while, even though they realized we had been trapped and had little chance of getting out alive,' he said
 Captain Mercy said that he had never seen such valor as was displayed by Captain Charles T. Boyd in leading handful of dsmounted skirmishers through the machine gun fire and into the ambush of death. He added that it was not until their ammunition was exhausted that the troop was finally cut to pieces, and told of the heroic death of Lieutenant Henry R. Adair of Portland, Oregon, in an attempt to re- plenish it.
 Lieutenant Adair died fighting, his last words being "go on. sergeant" to a commissioned officer at his side. Captain Mercy said.
 The two were on their way to the pack animals carrying the ammuni- ton when they were intercepted near a small irrigation ditch by a detail of the MeXicans. Lieutenant Adair had already been wounded and had lost his pistol in the previous fighting, but he had borrowed another and was fight ing a hand to hand battle when he was killed. He fell backward unconscious and was caught by the negro sergeant as he slid toward the ditch which was deeply filled with water. The sergeant | held Adair in his arms. his face above l the water until he died, the wounded officer revivjng only long enough to whisper orders to leave him and finish l the mission. Captain Mercy said that Captain Boyd warned the men before | the fight that they were advancing | into the greatest danger. He reiter- | ated that the Carrancistas opened fire | first from their machine gun trench

 CHICAGO, June 26.-The resolutions adopted endofsing Hughes offered by James R. Garfield, of Ohio, read in part as follows:
 Whereas. a statement issued by this committee in January last and the platform adopted by the progressive national convention set forth that put ting aside all partisan considerations in view of the existing world and national conditions, we would work with any man or party who saw the nations need and put forth a leader fit to meet it; and,
 "Whereas, we believe with Colonel Roosevelt that in nominating Charles F. Hughes of New York the republican party has put forth such leader, we therefore endorse and concur in the recommendation of Colonel Roosevelt that we support Mir. Hughes.
 Resolved, that we hereby direct the national executive committee to CO., operate with MT. Hughes and take any steps that they deem proper effective ly to prosecute the campaign.
 Resolved, that we leave to the state committees the determination of action in their respective states and recom- mend that whatever action they take be taken after conference with the na- tional executive committee.
 "The committee earnestly desires that the power of the progressive movement which has, largely without political victory, accomplished so great change in the aspect of American affairs, be

 HUGHES GIVEN ENDORSEMENT
Republican A. P. Leased wirel

Republican A. r. Leased Wirel
 CHICAGO, June 26.-By vote of g to 6, with nine members declining to vote, the national committee of the progressive party at the end of a stormy session endorsed Charles E. Hughes for president.
 The fight in the committee to en- dorse Hughes was led by George W. Perkins of New York. James R. Gar field of Ohio, and Chester H. Rowell of California.
 The radical element in the commit tee, represented by Matthew Hale of Massachusetts, Bainbridge Colby of New York, Henry F. Cochems of Wis consin, and John NJ. Parker of Loui- siana, vigorously protested against the endorsement of any candidate for president and fought the majority at every step of the program. The min ority's first move was to insist on an open meeting of the committee which it won, after a number of the com mitteemen led by John NJ. Parker of Louisiana bOlted the meeting.
 After Secretary Oscar King Davis
 
 ter in which he finally declined the presidential nomination of the party and urged that Charles F.. Hughes be supported in order to defeat Presi- dent Wilson, the committee voted to accept the colonels declination and took a recess for luncheon.
 At the beginning of the afternoon Ia1 nf Massachusetts ruled that the next order of business was to fill the vac ancies on the ticket caused by the re- fusal of Colonel Roosevelt to run.
 Bainbridge Colby of New York pre- sented the name of Victor Murdock, chairman of the national committee who is now on his way to China, as the partys candidate for president.
 This led to clash between Ray mond Robins of Illinois and Mir. Colby in which the lie was passed. MT. Robins said Mir. MuTdock had told him he would not accept the presi- dential nomination and the proposition 10 run a third party ticket was de feated after a spirited debate by a vote of 31 to 15. James R. Garfield of Ohio then introduced q resolution en- dorsing Hughes for president and di- recting the executive committee of the progressive party to co-operate with the resolutions committee.
 Henry F. Cochems of Wisconsin, raised the point that the committed had no authority to endorse any can didate and that it's power was limited to the filling of the vacancy on the ticket caused by the refusal of Colo mel Roosevelt to run.
 Chairman Hale ruled that the mo- tion to endorse or recommend the republican candidate for president was out of order and a debate of several hours followed
 Finally James R. Garfield appealed from the chair and was sustained 1T his contention by a vote of B to IA During the discussion Raymond Rob ins opposed making any endorsement and indicated that he would supper President Wilson if the progressive; did not put a ticket in the field MT

ORPET FIRST
 NESS IN
 OWN DEFENSE
Republican A. p. Leased Wlrel

WAUKEGAN, Ill., June 26.-William H. Orpet, the 20-year-old University of Wisconsin student charged with the murder of Marion Lambert, his school sweetheart, took the witness stand this afternoon and told On direct examina- tion of his meeting with her on Febru- ary 9 and of her death. Adjournment for the night interrupted the recital which will be resumed tomorrow.
 He did not see her take poison nor have it about her, he testified. but he saw her dying convulsions. He sup ported the theory that the cyanide of potassium, which caused her death was taken in powdered form and not in so- lution. as insisted by expert toxicolo- gists called by the prosecution.
 'I noticed white powder on her face and one hand" he said The medicine" which he gave her to relieve q supposed delicate condition; he said, was simply molasses and water He said that he knew she could not be in a delicate condition and adopted this subterfuge to relieve her mind, as she kept insisting in letters that she was alarmed at her condition.
 The witness gave an innocent in- depreciation of the alibi letters which he addressed to his mother and to Marion. He left Madison February s. In the hands of his friend Otto Peter son he left the two missives. post dated February 9 to be mailed on the latter date. He explained that his own parents would have objected to his | making the trip and that Marion's | parents objected to him. In case he l should be seen and stories carried to | either household he figured that the | letters would be taken as proof posi- | tive to the contrary.
 At the meeting in the woods he said Marion expressed alarm at her condi- tioon and he tried to persuade her that her fears were groundless. He of- fered her the molasses and water as d 1 "fiXer" but she said that it would do ] her no good.
 ] He suggested that she would better catch her car and started away but she ! called him back and asked if he was ! going to write to her any more. He
 said he thought not and started away
 again.
 Something, I don't know what" made him turn around he said. Marion had taken the poison. He could see she was in cOnvulsion. He returned to her and said she had two more tremors. Witness said that he became dazed
 and remembered only flying from the woods. He took d train back to Mad
 ison
 After leaving the woods he said he
 threw away the bottle of diluted mo- lasses. The bottle was recovered nine

days later by K. B. Hawkins and others sent out by attorneys whom Orpet had by that time retained.
 The case of the defense began at the forenoon session with the opening statement by James H. Wilkereon chief of counsel for the defendant The statement was completed in the after noon and to the surprise of those who have been attending the trial Orpet was the first witness.
 Every eye turned toward him as his name was called, a slender youth of marked regularity of feature but noth- ing save a natural pallor to distinguish him in a crowd. He wore a dark suit and tie. For six weeks he had sat far down in big chair beside his mother with an expression which seemed part sullenness and part strain.
 His face lighted, however, as he heard his name called and with an en- couraging look from Mrs. Orpet, he went forward and was sworn. His voice was plainly audible at first but soon developed periods of weakness. He recollected very little save the pur- port of his conversation with Marion.
