The lumber and iron trades seem 10 have suffered

How Much do THEY Make :?

When they scratched their autographs up
on the hotel register, the clerks hair stood
on end at the prospect of entertaining three
italian Counts, and as the porter ascended
to the sky parlor with the baggage, consist
ing of three handkerchief, containing a
shirt each, there was great excitement in the
house over these gentlemen from sunny
Italy. The names deciphered upon the
book were, Peanut Joe, Peanut Andy and
Peach Cake Peanut, cognomens as eupho-
neous as novel. They went into the peanut
business at the corner of French and Water
streets, and patiently did they toll until last
Saturday night, when Peach Cake, peached
on his brothers, by stealing nine bushels Of
the peanuts from which he realized nine dol
lars, and Immediately took the train for
Baltimore. The other members of the firm
procured tickets and started after the alb
sconder. Last evening they returned, hav-
ing found their man in Washington. He
had three dollars left, and it absorbed just
exactly twenty-fo four dollars and sixty cents
for travelling expenses. Now the Peanut
Brothers are endeavoring to solve the knot
ty arithmetical puzzle OF how much they
make by the operation.
