He didn't happen to know that a

New News Of Yesterday
When Ex-President Hayes
Said Grace at Dinner
By Holland.

In the latter part of May the Ma
tional Association of Manufacturers OF
the United States held its annual
meeting in New York city, AS a
whole the body represented the lead
ing manufacturers of the country and
it was in informal elbow-to-elbow
conversation that perhaps the mos.
important matters we're discussed, or
at least discussed in the most infiuen-
tial way. Il was my good fortune to
meet some of these manufacturers at
luncheon and at the head of the
luncheon table sat the newly-elected
Senator from Ohio, w. G Harding
During luncheon Senator Harding
narrated in a most interesting manner
some of his associations with past
Presidents of the United States. par
ticularly Mckinley Hayes, Harrison,
and Taft Senator Harding said that
he had for some time been making a
study of the administration of Presl-
dent Arthur and he had reached the
opinion that in the future the very
great merits of Arthurs administra-
ton and the tact and skill with which
he overcame the delicate and difficult
conditions which confronted him
when he entered the Presidency would
be fully recognized. Senator Harding
also said that he had discovered that
throughout the State of Indiana. the
name and services of Benjamin Har-
rison we're held in the highest esteem,
and his intellectual ability was now
fully recognized. The Senator also
spoke of the tact which President
Hayes displayed ia the administra-
ton of the Presidential Office. And
one OF the greatest manufacturers Of
the United states Immediately said
that kindness and tact were pecu-
iarly characteristic of President
Hayes. as he had personal expert
snce which justified him in making
hat statement.
1T was several years after General
Hayes retired from the Presidency
and was looking at his home in Ohio
that | had him and two or three other
men who had served ably in the civil
war as guests in my house" said thii
man. "The modesty and gentleness Of
