Special to tho Scrnnton Tribune.
Susquehanna, Sept. 14. Undo Sam
my Raymond, nti aged resident of
Steum Hollow', Is noted for several
things, a moil j,' (hem being tho possess
or of a fenceless farm, and nn Inor
dinate appetite for apple-Jack. Tilde
Sammy Is bald-headed, and a year ago
when he proposed to the widow Cog
Kins, she Instantly turned him down
with the remark: "I'll be banned If I
ever marry a bald-headed man If -lie's
made of cold!"
And the unhappy Sammy went bis
way, keeping his spirits up by pouring
spirits down. Three weeks ngo Uncle
Sammy bitched up bis fiery, unfed
steed, drove to Great Bend, and pro
ceeded to paint the quiet hamlet n
bright red hue. Late at night a kind
hearted saloonatlc piled Sammy upon
his buckboard, and beaded his mus
tang toward the Steam' Hollow slashln'.
The. next morning an early riser
found Sammy's steed nibbling bur
docks upon a side hill. It was har
nessed and the neighbors at once In
stituted n search for Sammy, for ho
was valuable he could vote, and ho
never saw a man go thirsty so long
as he bad a nicker.
To the great joy of the Steam J fol
lowers, Uncle Sammy was, after a long
search, discovered Imbedded In the blue
mud of a cranberry marsh, a mile from
his home. The upturned wagon was
bis coverlet. He was deep In an alco
holic trance and oblivious to the world
and Its pitfalls.
Sammy was carried home to his
cabin. With a physician's help and
the widow Cogging' tender nursing. In
a week he was able to sit up, swear
and drink apple-jack. To the wonder
ment of the Steam Hollowltes and tho
great joy of the widow Cogglns, after
the swamp muck bad finally been re
moved from Uncle Sammy's scalp, there
came a luxuriant growth of auburn
bued hair, and his appearance has been
improved 27G per cent.
News of Uncle Sammy's miraculous
experience with blue swamp muck has
spread abroad, and scores of people are
wearing skull caps filled with the
muck, and the owner of the swamp
Is deluged with orders for boxes of
the soil. A number of manufacturers
of hair restorers are,. In consequence,
going out of business, and a Blngham
tom wig maker lias turned evangelist.
Uncle Sammy and the widow Coggins
will be married when tho red Is on the
pumpkin and the tassel's on the corn.
