An interview with Dewey, on the
eve of his sailing from Gibraltar for
New York, which bears all the ear
marks of truth, makes him speak most
tenderly OF Montpelier and Vermont.
He said that he was longing to return
to them, as his native town and state
were very dear TO him and that he
would come home at once after his re-
ceptions at New York and Washington.
1t is evident that his homecoming is
to be the greatest JOY ofhis heart and
Vermont will do all in her power to
show her appreciation of one who, the
idol Of men, yearns for her green hills
and is proud of his nativity.

VA VISIT TO BILLY BISCUIT.

AS the kidnapped children were preparing
to get in the buggy Drusilla made this re-
mark to Sweetest Susan:
EFF nanny don't kill me dis day, it'n
be kaze I'm dead when I git dar."
At home Jemimy was walking up and
down wringing her hands, and making
statements that went far to show that
Drusitla knew pretty we'll what to expect.
Il amt sleep wink dis night, less'n you
kin call noddin' sleepin', not wink; an
when does git holt er dat gal, I'm gwine
ter make her wish she'd "a stayed los'."
Just because she stayed with Sweetest
Susan, suppose" said Mrs. Wyche.
Nom not 'zactly dat" replied Jemimy;
"but whyn't she come on ter de house an
fetch little Mistiss wild her? She plenty big
huff fer dat. Eff she'd "a come, little Mis-
tiss would "a come; you know dat you'se'f.
Oh eff don't pay dat niger gal back fer
de oil and de newi'
You'd better thank the Lord If you ever
see her again." said Sweetest Susan's dis
tressed mother
''I'll do dat, Nam; I'll thank i'm on my
Bonded knee; an TO I git it onbent good,
I'll lay dat gal cross 1t. an when I git done
wild er, she won't git In no mo- Wagons
she won't git tuck off by nobody, not twel
she's done grown, er after dey done put
me on de coolinboard. 1 may not know
how ter raise children but 1 know how to
make 'um stan roun'."
All this time Mrs. Wyche was lying upon
a sofa in a state of collapse while Jemi-
my, more vigorous, Cor more venomous, as
she would have put it, was walking up
and down in the long hallway wringing
her hands and grooming.
Morning came on, and 1t was light
enough to put cut the candles, but they
were felt burning. Presently modest ray
of sunlight crept in and played upon the
wall opposite. 1t seemed to be signal,
for the moment Mrs. Wyche's eyes fell
upon 1t. she heard sharp knock at the
door. Jemimy heard it, too, and ran to
push back the thum-bolt. Quick as she
had been. Mrs Wyche was by her side as
she opened the door. Aaron was standing
on the threshold. Mrs Wyche held her
breath as he raised his hand, and Jemimy
leaned against the wall with moan.
"Afi safe, all safe. Mistiss. They're COM
in in the buggy" To Jemimy he said:
Get breakfast, get BREAKFAST They're all
hungry
y, Ibid you go with father?" Mrs. wyche
asked
Eyes, Mistiss."
s"I knew it," said the lady. The tone of
her voice was full of the liveliest gratitude.
Aaron bent his head, raised his hand, and
was gone before they could ask any par
ticulars.
Mrs. Wyche would have called him back,
at that moment she heard the sound Of

sight pearter than our folks. They know
ed all about physic and aigeber, an things
like that Now, 1 reckon you think that
Aaron is about the smartest man in the
world Come nowi Don't you? Hey?"
Buster John reflected awhile and then
replied: Not the smartest man in the
world
well, anyhow, you've got the idee
strong in your mind that he's a heap the
smartest man anywhere in these diggin's:
now, haint your" persisted Mr.. Bobs
Buster John did not assent to this in so
many words but his tone and manner left
no doubt on Mr.. Bobs' mind that the
youngster had very extreme opinions as
to Aarons gifts 81 don't blame you" said
Mr.. Bobs. you're young yit, an you
haint travelled much the wide world all
over Today's cen about the fust time
you've been to our house sence you weigh
ed a pound more then 'possum. l want
to show you a thing or two. You've got
the idee, an your Sis, too, 1 reckon, that
Aaron knows it all. Eff you'll call her out
I'll show you that Aaron don't know moro
than half of the things that mought be
know'd."
Buster John called Sweetest Susan, and
she came running out, followed by Drusic-
la.
STAND little furder back" said Mr..
Bobs, motioning with his hands; "a little
furder yit; now, that'll do. Keep your eyes
open"
There was no need for that suggestion
Hes going to show us something" BUS
ter John explained, and then the children
stood still and watched, hardly drawing O
breath.
The age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1897-1902, 1899-05-07

Nevertheless, she felt that she had grown
In Importance by taking part in the ad-
venture and she put on some of those airs
which are very cute in girls of her age,
but which are-well, not so cute in grown
women.
Buster John submitted to them with very
good grace, considering that he was a
spirited boy. He knew he would have
done some strutting himself if Sweetest
Susan's adventures had been his. AS 1t
was he contented himself with assertions
as to what he would have done had he
been In the wagon. He might have gone
to sleep at first, he said, but just as sure
as anything he would have walked when
the wagon jolted over a rock or lump in
the road, and then-well, suffice 1t to say
that wagner would have found himself in
deep trouble. Buster John would have
pulled out his pistol
'Why, you haven't any pistol; you
know you haven't" cried Sweetest Susan.
'Well I'd have had one If | had been in
the wagon. l would have guessed what
was going to happen"
How come you didn't?" inquired Drucil-
la, at this point. "Why'n't you guess we
wuz gwine ter drop off ter sleep? An why
MT you stay down dar an wake we-all up?
I don't like dish yer kinder guessin' what
guesses when dey amt no need er gues-
SIM"
But Buster John insisted that he would
have borrowed his grandfather's pistol, and
hid himself in the wagon; and when they
came to some dark and lonely spot in the
The age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1897-1902, 1899-05-07

on the plantation and in the surrounding
country, and the children themselves pass
ed many a pleasant hour In discussing it,
when otherwise they would have been very
lonely. Sweetest Susan often thought of
little Billy Biscuit, and once when talking
about him to her mother she mentioned
what Miss Elviry had said about cast-off
children's clothes. Now, as It happened,
there was a chestful of clothes somewhere
about the house, and Mrs. Wyche made
haste to hunt 1t up and sort out as much
as might be of some service to the little
waif. Then, woman-like, having her mind
on the matter, she insisted that the clothes
must be sent as soon as possible, and gave
orders that Johnny Heapter should carry
everything the next morning.
The children. h.ea arr.ss CO this, insisted
that they be allowed to go along and as
there was nothing to prevent (Sherman's
Army having unwittingly dispered school
and schoolmaster) it was arranged that
Johnny Bapter should use the spring wag-
on which had two seats, so that Buster
John, Sweetest Susan and Drusilla could
all gosalong. And as Johnny Bapter was
going that far, he might as well take an
early start and go on to Harmony Grove
to carry some gifts Of butter, flour and 9TH

the world, his age and inches. half as
smart as he isl
Billy Biscuit acted as IL he thought so
too. Inside the somewhat narrow limits of
his pen, he walked to and fro on his all
fours as IL trying to show himself off.
Now, Miss Elviry could say nothing on
behal fof Billy Biscuits accomplishments
that Sweetest Susan would not agree to.
She was very fond of babies and young
children, and had a peculir mack of enter
tanning them She felt, too special in
terest in Billy Biscuit having been the
means of rescuing MIN from That unfortu-
nate lunatic and so she sat on the floor by
the little fellow, and in very few minutes
they were having great fun. Especially
Vas 1t great fun When Dfusilla Joined them
and solemnly pretended to have fit. Billy
Biscuit laughed until he was nearly ex-
hausted at Drusila's queer antics so that,
finally, Miss Elviry felt compelled to beg
her not to Be SO funny. Whereupoh Dru-
silla became really solemn. Her clown

a wild beast of the forest, name Unknown.
She went about the room on hands and
knees, growing and making strange noises

ments for Billy Biscuit when this wild AMI

nal headed In his direction, and he would
rush to the protection of Sweetest Susan
with lust that tinge and taste of fear that
gave a peculiar zest to the play.
AS for Buster John, he had other fish to
my, as Miss Elviry said. Lucky for him,
Mr. Bobs had cut one of the fingers of his
right hand the afternoon before, and the
cut had developed such soreness that he
was taking day off. Buster John, in
looking about the place, which was a small
one, indeed, but very interesting, had come
upon Mr.. Bobs sitting in the door of his
little workshop smoking his clay pipe-one
that he had made himself, for he was a
Very ingenious man.
"Howdy, Mr.. Bobs?" said Buster John,
with as much politeness as a small boy can
muster
'Why, howdy?" replied Mr.. Bobs. "You'-
re young ACKNOWLEDGMENT yche-Well,

hurt you. You're 'Crombie all over, eff I
ever seed one; an I've seed em all, fust

As Mr.. Bobs sat looking at Buster John,
he presented very picturesque figure.

buggy wheels, and she knew that the kid
mapped children had arrived. Before she
could dry her eyes, Sweetest Susan came
running in and rushed into her mothers
arms with glad cry; whereupon the
mother felt called upon to weep little
more, though she tears that fell now were
far different from those that fell in the
dreary watches of the night.
Druslla came in with less confidence.
She was not sure of her reception "How-
dy. NANNY? Howdy, Mistiss" she said,
and then looked at Jemimy.
Come yer, gall" said Jemimy. She turn
ed Drusilla around and inspected her care
fully. - You amt hurt nowhar, is you?'
"No'm!" exclaimed Drusilla. Then an
other thought struck her. NANNY. did
you cry much kaze I was done losted?"
What, had ter cry fer?' exclaimed
Jemimy
''Well, of you'd "a been losted, I'd "a
cried" remarked Dusilla.
At this Jemimy broke down. Look yer
Niger! You better stop foolin' wild me.
De mex time you do lax you done done,
I'm gwinter kill you. You hear dat?'
Whereupon Jemimy flouted out and went
into the kitchen, where she went about
breakfast with surprising energy, talking
to herself all the time.
1t is impossible to describe the keen dis
appointment of Buster John when he came
down to breakfast and learned of the re-
markabe events of the night. He was dis
appointed, first. because he had not been
kidnapped with the rest; and, second, be-
cause he had not been walked to join in the
search He had an idea that he has been
treated unfairly, not by any particular per-
son or persons, but in some way. 1t was
just his luck, he said, to be left out when
anything very interesting was going to
happen. He recalled the day he remained
at home from school on some slight ex-
cuse, and pack of HOUNDS rem a gray foS
right UP to the school house door and
caught It there; and little later the same
day the boys found a partridge nest right
on the verge of the playground, and the
nest had seventeen beautiful eggs IN it.
There we're other occasions that ne fefdern-
bered, and he said to himself and to 9th
ers that It WIS pretty hard that girl
should 5a having such a-fine time while he
WIS asleep in bed.
But Sweetest Susan declared that it
wasn't such a fine time after all. She was
asleep, and didn't know anything about It.

road, then and there he would have de-
manded satisfaction.
Huh! He'd "a gil you satisfaction" ex-
claimed Drusilla; he'd "a grabbed you an
rolled yo head in one er dem blankets, an
eff dat amt satffy you, he'd "a gil you
sumpn else"
That's all you know about pistols" said
Buster John, imperiously

piled Drusilla, when you know bout folks.
Why, honey, dat ar man would "a eat you
up eff you des SO much ez bat yo' eye at
i'm. Amt done see de way he chaw Wit
ties, an how he talk long wild hisse,f?'
Nevertheless, Buster John insisted that
he would have rescued the captives and
brought them home in triumph.
AS may be supposed, the strange adven-
ture of Sweetest Susan and Drusilla af-
forded subject for a great deal of gossip
