Congressman Hardwck, the boyish-
looking man from Georgia, has had
the experience that has befallen other
youthful statesmen. He was stand

when one Of the reading clerks, mis-.
taking him for page. said: "Run and

Gen. Grosyenor's desk" Smiling at
the clerks error the Georgian did as
requested. Half an hour later the
