Yet little Miss Betsy Brandon, sitting lonely and disconsolate on the piazza of the great plantation house, did not think of the sunsbine. for her thoughts were in Sal isbury, and she longed to be there. For not more than an hour ago all the family bad driven to the town to see General Washington, who was to be received there with great honor. It was a wonderful thing, this southern tour of the general, now president of the United States. He had traveled In bis family carriage all the way down from Virginia, through the Carolinas and Georgia, near the coast of Savannah, and was now returning through the "up country," stopping at Augusta, Camden, Cbariotte and other towns. And now that he was coming to Salisbury such grand things were to be done! Captain John Baird, In command of the Rowan light horse com"I AM GENERAL WASHINGTON." pany, had gone to meet bim at Charlotte and escort him to Salisbury. Yet Betsy must stay, at home. But not every one had gone to Salisbury, for after awhile Betsy was surprised to see two gentlemen riding up the avenue. On reaching the house they dismounted, and one, a gentleman of very grand and handsome appearance, bowed low to the httle maid and asked if she would be kind enough to give breakfast to two tirvl wayfarers. Betsy courtesied in a pretty old fashion and said that as all the grown people had gone to town to see General Washington she was afraid the breakfast might cot be verj nice, but she would have something ready in a little while and would they please be seated on the piazza. "I am a plain old man," said the gentleman who had spoken, "and want only a cup of milk and a piece of corn bread." The "plain old man" was very dignified and courteous, and there was something in his bearing so noble that somehow his little hostess felt that here was a man fit to stand with the greatest. "I promise you." he continued, "that you shall see General Washington before any of your people do." Flow that might be Betsy did not kn'1 nor ci-. cipstion. for there

Mrs. Runge. jun S-2m ex sun was something about this unexpected guest that won her trust from the beginning. So she hurried away to the kitchen to interv iew old Dinah. Then, while Dinah was making ready the hoe cake aud Cindy was setting the table. Betsy berself ran down the hill to the springhouse for the milk and butter. In u little while the simple repast was ready, and the guests were bidden, to partake of It. Betsy was pleased, as any hostess would have been, to eee how the breakfast was enjoyed. Encouraged by the kindness of the gentleman who had promised that she should see General Washington, she talked freely of the great doings in town that day. There was to be a grand reception In the afternoon and a ball at night. Iler mother bad the most beautiful gown for the ball, and no doubt all the other ladies had beautiful gowns. But her father would wear bis old uniform. And then she told of how her father honored and loved General Washington and of how he said that he was the greatest man and the best in all tbe world. But now the guests rose, and he who had asked for the breakfast thanked Betsy for It. "The milk you gave me," he said. "Is the best I have drunk for many a day, and the hoecake Is delicious. I thank you for your kindness. 1 must now- bid you farewell and go on my journey." "Farewell, sir," said Betsy, courtesying. "But when" for now the question would come "when do I see General Washington?" She raised her eager eyes to meet those of the stranger who had given her the promise. With a kind smile he answered simply, "I am General Washington." Like other wonderful things, It bad all come about very naturally. The general was fatigued by his journey and, knowing that he would have little opportunity of rest during the day, left his party for awhile and. with one attendant, rode on horseback to tbe Brandon house for some refreshment before going on to Salisbury, six miles farther. And so It came to pass that the little girl in the North Carolina farmhouse not only saw the great man, but entertained him at breakfast. St. Nicholas. Force of an Oil Well. Oil has been ejected from the Baku wells with such force and accompanied with so much sand that steel blocks twelve inches thick placed over the mouth of tbe well to deflect the flow were perforated in a few hours and had to be replaced. The casing with which the wells were lined was often torn to shreds and eventually collapsed, and hundreds of thousands of tons of sand which accumulated In the vicinity necessitated the services of large bodies of workmen.
