Behind the Scenes.
“Early in January rumors were
circulating with, it appears. a con-;
siderable foundation of act, that:
'Will Hays, National Republican
chairman. was coming to Connecti-
cut accompanied by Mrs. McCormick
hr Miss Mary Garrett Hay, to hold
meetings to enlist the women for
the Republican ranks. But nothing‘
