ALWAYS A DIPLOMAT
JOHN HAY EARLY SHOWED BENT
OF HIS MIND.
Simple Expedient Saved Future Secre-
tary of State from Maternal Wrath

err Younger Brother.

err younger Brother.
That John Hay has always been a
diplomat is shown by the following
story of his early boyhood:
In the little river town of Warsaw
ILL.,, lived two brothers, John and
Charlie. The latter, being the young.
mented and bullied by older compan-
ions.
But never more than once. For John
Hay, despite his quiet and affection
ate nature, was an enemy to be dread
ed, and many were the blackened
eyes and bleeding noses that caused
the DULLES to regret their choice of a
victim.
But there was one boy in the town
who had incurred the righteous dis
pleasure of the future statesman for
no other reason than that people said
he looked like that Hay boy" And
when the news of it reached his ears,
the elder brother was filled with q
hatred so consuming that he lay awake
nights planning revenge and bitter
retribution to be visited upon the one
so luckless as to be considered John
Hays double.
one summer morning the two broth
ers were dressing in their room in the
Clay street house, which stands at the
edge of high bluff overlooking the
Mississippi. Across the street, in the
early morning shade appeared the
Brown boy, the presumptious double.
Telling Charlie not to dress too rap
idly and not to leave the room until
he returned, John slid quietly out of
the window and disappeared. He was
pack IN five minutes, and to Charles
establishment, rapidly undressed and
crawled into bed.
In few minutes determined foot
steps were heard approaching the
front door Of the Clay street house,
and a vigorous knocking brought the
mother of the two boys hurrying to
the door.
Mrs. Hay, you've got the meanest
boy in this hull town." said a voice
whose tones the boys Immediately rec
ognized as those of the Brown bows
mother. And then she went on to tell
much exaggerated story of how her
little lamb had returned to the fold
only few minutes before in a sadly
condition as to both BODY

n Warsaw mean enough to act that
l-way but that John O. yourn.'
With firm lips, that BODIED i'll for

Where's John?' was her first ques-
ion, for her eyes had failed to take IN

rother, glad to repay the many good
urns of his hero, while still keeping
within the realms of truth.
The mother shook her head in an.

THE ISSUE CLEAR CUT.
Committee Refuses to 60 Into QHes-
ton of Opponents Teracity.

Tho 1r771f7 or faisftY af the sweeping charges
made by James IIaZen Hyde against ex-GoV-
error Odell on Tuesday now rest entirely on a
question of veracity between Mr. Hyde and
E H Hartman. In the most dramatic session
of the insurance committee Mr. Hartman yes
terday specifically and definitely contradicted
every one ef ,be accusations made by HYDE
Just before Mr.. Hartman left the stand there
was The nearest approach to wrange that has
occurred since the committee began its sessions.
Apparently provoked by MI Harriman's fiat
eontraditton of his clients testimony. Samuel
Jntermyer. MI Hyde's counsel, rose and de-
manded permission to cross examine Mr.. Harri-
man. There was long consultation of the COM
lnittee Then the request was denied by Sen
ator Armstrong. The denial was entirely con-
sistent with the course followed by the COM
lnittee since it began work. Opportunity was
offered Mr. Untermyer to put any question per-
tinent TO the real purpose of the commission
through Mr. Hughes. Again Mr. Untermyer pro
tested and attempted to ask question of Mr..
Hartman.
Senator Armstrong intervened and directed
3r, Hartman not to answer the question. Then
NJ. Untermyer put several questions through
air. Hughes and subsided After the hearing
he renewed his protest and then told that
IL he had any material questions which might
TO follow This course. but that he could not
cross examine a witness Senator Armstrong,
supported by his associates. took the ground
1nat the question of personal veracity between
the two witnesses was not that the COM
nittee could deal with.
With reference to the strength of Mr. Hyde's
charge that he feared the efforts of Governor
odell, expressed in retaliatory Legislation. the
evidence yesterday developed one damaging fact
