SAMANTHA ALLEN AT THE W.
T. U. ENTERTAINMENT.
C.
The following amusing "Experience"
was written by one of the members of
the Astoria W. C. T. U., who took the
liberty of borrowing for the evening of
the W. C. T. U. entertainment, Febru
ary 23, the style and name of the fa-
inous Samantha Allen:
Jonesvllle, Feb. 1, 1894.
My Friends and Partners of the W.
C. T. U.: I was Just a relating to good
Miss Deacon Charnlck that I wuz to
our female wimmln's meeting, and It
wuz a pretty arduous meeting that day. Q
It came this way, and almost took ray
breath back when Miss Deacon Henzy
(she that married the second cousin of
foslah's aunt on his mother's side) rose t
io stern-like and said: "There's nc
more than 12 cents in our treasury""
(she always keeps the money, cause she
is so meek-like), and we ou?ht to be
for having a 'fair' or some 'camera ob -
scura' to get some money for our fe-
male socftty."
And, as I wuz a-saylng, It wuz an ar
duous meeting, for we "waxed warm
over the "camera obscura,". etc., especi
ally the etc., and I guess wa would have
waxed yet If good Sister Submit Tewks
bury, from Loontown, hadn't a-rlz in
the midst and told us about the "expe
rience meeting" they had in Loontown.
"You see," sez she, "each sister must
earn 60 cents, and then get up in pub
lic and tell right out before everybody
Just how she earned it." As we wuz
middling tired discussing the matter,
we decided sure and quick on the "Ex
perience meeting." Howsomever, I went
home Immediately, from that meeting a
I'eellng pretty dubersome, fur I wat
skalred that Sister Serena Fogg might
be tempted to sell butter on the sly.
(They eay her husband, VUlw I'ogg', is
awful mean nn stingy with her wl icn
she wants any money for the meetil ig
house or charity work.) And I w uz
feard Miss Ciphers, Bhe that is n;t t
dead with the rheumatz, would kill ht r
self a contogllng old dresses for son le
one for the sake of our female society.
But she is a good contogler and a goo d
Christian. But I was most dubersorw.'
about my own (Samantha Allen's) I0
cents. I never earned so much in jr
hull life, though I have been Josiah Al
len's faithful pardner for well nigh. 25
years. I thought pro and con, tpecl:lly
con, how I might touch the tender cords
of Jolah's hert and get him to pay me
oO cents for eomothing I could do par
ticular and special for him, such as re
seating hip. trousers (he wears them out
pretty fast; he always goes horseback
to Loontown to see that the wimmen
don't get to set on the conference), una
uwre specially 1 rnignr. toucn ins hean
n' i kept my table up wim good vittieo
-nd aiwas had things snowy and deal.
and hud his slippers ready and warn,
by a cheeriul lire when he got the
chores done and a-feeding the btock.
josiah likes good vittles, and he like
me. Some days he likes me better than
oiners. The better viules I get, the bet
ter he likes me. But this is exlsodln,
uid to resume. Well, I told my para-
ner aoout our lemaie wimmln s expe
rience meeting," and how much I want
ed to do somthlng to earn DO cents, and
he loohed serene-like for morn a quar
ter of a minute.
Well, I managed to keep a good
stream of Tittles before him for three
days (though 1 was awful busy finish
incr the rae- farnct fnr thA snaro rvim
. . , . - .
gainst his brother-in-law's second cous
in should come to see us. It Is mostl)
Josldh's relation that come to see us.
Well, in the third night "I heard him
groan like It was In his sleep, only
more so. I thought of the 50 cents, and
how mayte he would like to have a fire
made and some catnip tea. So I slept
and snored specially snored for morn
a quarter of a minute, till I heard Jo
siah in endearin axcents: "Samantha,
are you goin' to sleep there and me a
dying. Can't you get me some catnip
tea?' I got the tea but I didn't get
the 50 cents.
Jt cured him quick and sure, but It
did not cure the trouble what Wuz agi
tating of my mind. I lay there a revo
luting the money question that the late
congress spent two months an" more
over, end a getting their money oil the
time.
It took me no mor'n two hours to
changed into gold and never has the
change when his wife asks, so humble
like, for five cents to buy herself some
hairpins or such he can't see she ha
been holding up her hair with Just onw
pin for two weeks and more). Now, sez
I, monometalism and I wuz a-lroning
hard), mono means one that means one
pardner carrys all the money, and
keeps it, too; specially the man pard
ner. And 'blmetallsm' means that the
man keeps all the money by him, and
when his pardner has to buy Uie baby
a pink calico dress he goes 'long by her
side to see she don't buy anything but
the pink dress for the baby. And I see,
Josiah wuz a-looklng pretty dubersomc,
and I went on with a hull lot of burn
ing Indignation in my axcents, and, sez
I, "Josiah Allen, look me square in the
face and tell me what 'free sliver'
means." (Josiah looked dretful iale.)
There wuz nothing said for morn' a
quarter of a minute, and I saw he wuz
a-looklng trembling-like and agitating,
and, sez I, "Josiah, you know it means
when a female wimmen have pulled
even in the harness all their married
life, and never bawlked nor halted, that
all the money from the buzz-saw busi
ness, the butter and eggs and whatsom
ever business, should be put In the bu
tt reau drawer, particular the wimmln's
i drawer, and be free to both pardners."
I saw Josiah was agitating and trem
bling and sort of lost his balance, so to
speak. Meanwhile I saw his hand, like
he had the palsy, only more so, go into
his trousers' pocket.
But I wuz took back and skalrt, foit
s wuz something like a swoon had come
over him, and while I wuz a-runnlng
a for the camphlre, I heard something
like it wuz a 50 cents fall on the floor.
And when Josiah come to he never said
nothing about the GO cents; but I al
ways calculated he meant It for the
fl "Experience meeting."
! Howsomever, I earned it
