HOT SLASH.
A De1Icacy That IL Priced by New
Orleans Negroes.

Orleans Negroes
did you ever hear OF an edible
known as hot slash y a" asked citizen
who always keeps an eye open for
life's little oddities. "No? Well, I'm
not surprised. | discovered 1t myself
only yesterday through a chance visit
to the river front. 1t was about IL
o'clock in the morning, and was loaf
ing around the far end Of the North
eastern fruit wharf waiting for man,
when a strapping big negro rushed up
and bawled out: Hot slash! Hot
slashv
II supposed he was addressing him
self to me, but before ! could think up
some graceful and appropriate bit Of
repartee at least a dozen other strap
ping darkles came tumbling out from
behind a pile Of barrels, where crap
game had evidently been In progress,
and started on dead run for nearby
alleyway.
''None Of them had asked any Ques-
tions, and, needless to say, my curios-
ity was highly excited, so / trailed
along In the rear and ut the other end
Of the alley found the whole crowd,
with numerous additions, clustered
about a small covered wagon from
which a mulatto was selling smoking
hot loaves of bread at a nickel apiece.
As each loaf was called for he split 1t
open and saturated the interior with
molasses from n can in the vehicle.
That was hot slash. 1t seemed to be
a local substitute for the merchants
lunch, which appears about the same
hour in the retail district up town.
II asked one Of the darkies whether
1t was good, and his reply, while word
less, was extremely eloquent. The
lower half Of his countenance was
buried in a fresh section of hot slash
at the moment, and nothing was visi-
BILE except his eyes, which he rolled
upward until they resembled q couple
Of white celluloid pool balls. Then he
closed them, very slowly, like man
in an ecstasy, and at the same time
made gurgling sound in his throat.
After that pantomime ! was strongly
tempted to try piece Of hot slash
myself. Orleans Times-Demo-

that the reason people are right hand.

controls the right side Of the body and
