GONE INTO THE SCRUB B1NG Brush BUsI-
yKss.--A young man noted for his wit, ur-
banity and gentlemanly department., but
vithat strong Radical, has gone into the
brush business. A certain or
yanization was selling itseffects at auction,
to; a 1ebhst up,"' when scrub
,ing brush was put up.oA'How much do
lear for the brush?s was thej auctioneer's !
,ry. give cents, six" ..sseven," were
he responses, the last being from our abese |
riend. n aSeyen dol hear any more
Going, going, gone" and it was knocked
lown to him at seven cents. The brush was
aid at one side, .andI pretty soon another
crubbing brush was discovered and put |
lp for sale again, it was the same show |
much, nthe same bid of ssseven cents, 2 and |
he article knocked down to the same bid |
Ter. When our tat boy came to pay for his |
;wo scrubbing g!brushes, it was found that
le- had bought the same article twice, and |
hat it had been sold once previously to |
.nottier party. He is hefty on the scrub
,ing brush trade. Had the auctioneer con
inued It's sale until this time he would have
,een still bidding on it. It is eonfidentially
.eported that, in view of the dark prospect
or negro suffrage, he intends buying up
il the scrubbing brushes he, can find to
wash him clean of its foul contamination.
