A HASH STORY.
Jtovv TIIE USUAL Ttyo SOULS OF HUT A

THROUGH THE INSTRUMENTALI
TY OF HASH.
A DOLEFUL TALE OF LOVE, DESPAIR,
HASH AND HAPPINESS.
BY JACQUES STROP.
Everybody who lias ever hoarded knows
or ought to kuow what hash is. Hush,
generally speaking. is the siul. jet stale re
nuiins of the Uiauksgiviiigulay turkey and
last nights cold pork. It is cut up in choka
ble morsels and with a little rancid butter
and dishwater, is put oil a slow fire to
stew till wanted. Hash making is not a
science, neither has It yet reached the dig
nity of an art. consequently, any respcec
table housekeeper with little brains and
more hair, can manipulate the ingredi
ents as well as anybody'. A hoarding
house without hash is a rarity—a. sort of
s-evfciMiii>y.s w<J utter, aud was never known
hut iifewinstances in this county. You can
somethnes find an orphan w ithout a father,
a rose without n tliorne, a dog without his
day, hut a hoarding house without hash,
never. The presence of this delectable
dish upon the supper table is always an
urgent invitation to lay awake.that night,
or have the incipient symptoms of the
nightmare. Urgent, because you’ve got
to cal hash or nothing. So much for
hash.
Mrs. Golly was chief engineer in one of
tlie fashionable, and I might say respecta
ble boarding lmuses Sf T—-—. She was
a lady who believed in giving her custo
mers just wlmt was beneficial according to
her own individual construction of the
laws of hygene. She was an obstinate be
liever in economy and bash. No two
things ever went better together than econ
omy and hash. They are twins. Among
the seventeen unfortunate devils who paid
her monthly in advance for board and
lodging was your humble servant. lie
commenced liis hash-eating career when
in the prime of life and it is to hash that
he owes his life.
The seventeen individuals were of va
rious creeds and sexes. For instance,
there was the charming yet obese Mrs.
Shingler.with lier sixteen year old daugh
ter i Prof. Burio and liis poodle; the
widow Moriarty and many others, includ
ing myself. We were one large family—
living under one spacious rool and fed by
one spacious woman. Tlie landlady was
our fond mother. She nursed us when
the cramp colic seized us, and physicked
us, and kissed us, and wiped our tears
away when our bill was over due, besides
all of which she made our hash. How
then could we help loving her ! We did
love her. We love her yet and shall love
her till the coroner holds liis inquest over
our death-by-suicide body.
Prominent among our large and influen
tial family was Col. Jop, a young man of
some twenty summers, whose only ambi
tion was to wed tlie younger Sliingler.
lie courted in every way ; on the half
shell, with a straw,or without water. -He
went to the shows with her ; rode %ut
with her ; rowed with her v ate hash with
her, and didn’t stand any more chance of
getting her than we did of an abolition of
hash. But it wasp't bis fault; lie tried
hard enough, goodness knows, but it was
the fault of the old lady Shingler. Seeing
his case a hopeless one Jop got to looking
down in the mouth. He didn’t eat any
tiling, and smiled a sickly smile at the
and nner table jokes. Then his despair took
another turn. Nothing suited him. He
growled at everything. He cut every
body up and made figurative hash of them.
In one of his eoleinncliolly moods he
kicked Burio’s dog down stairs, at which
the animal yelled and Burio swore. At
the table the coffee was a little too strong
or a little too weak ; the buscuits were
either too hard or too soft; the hash was
too cold or too hot,and so on ad iufinitum.
The motherly landlady endeavored to con
sole him. She put an extra lump ot sugar
in his coffee, made liis bed softer than the
others, and called him her poor sick boy.
Finally he commenced to ruin the house
aud mar the peaceful harmony of Mrs.
Gofly’s boarding house. Burio left aud so
did one or two others. Things now
assumed it threatening aud dangerous
aspect. The small speck, of dark
cloud in llje horizon began to assume
gigantic proportions, and just as it was
going to burst and scatter consternation
in tbe household the younger Shiugler
relented aud agreed to receive Jop in
her arms once more on condition—one
solitary but important condition. It Was
this ; recently occasional hairs were found
in the hash and those hairs were said to
belong (b the shapely head of Mrs. Gofly;
she had heard it whigpered among the
boarders that they never saw hash in that
house that did not contain hair and that
they had declared that hash could not be
iiairsh unless it contained hair ; now she
had simply this to say : as they were soon
to be married aud live in a snug little j
cottage with no cook, aud as they were \
used to the dish, she would make this
condition: within the next six’ dsv she
would make the hash one day for Mrs.
Gofly, Jop to remain in ignorance of that
particular day, and if he guessed it, he
could claim her for his own and , she
would never say aught against R.
'lt is needless to shy Jop gladly accepted
the condition, believing that he ,gopld
bribe the sook to inform him as to the
day she spent in the kitchen.
The secret of the stipulation# got out
nod you never saw such a run on hash in
your life. Jop was unfortunate in his
speculation# ns to getting the services of
the cook iu his favor. She was too well
bribed by Miss Shingler.
Again Jop was in despair. He walked
his room till late in the night, lie tore
his hair and broke his paper collars. At
la.-t an idea struck him. Smoothing his
liair and adjusting his dress, ho went
iVrtwn stairs a happy man. For live days
lie searched the hash. H° raked ihiough
;< ~no ms ioi'k ;ho rambled through it
with energy; you might have thought
he was looking fir a lost diamond. Six
days of earnest search was about to
close. There was only one more meal. Jop's
countenance was anything hut cheerful.
He only had one more chance, ami that
chance was dubious. He ate ills meal in
silence. When the last mouthful was
about to ho consigned to his mouth, he es
pied a hair ! Gracious, how his heart pal
pitated ! Slowly' reaching out his hand lie
pulled out the hair. It was red ! Glory 1
The die was cast and Jop won. lie claim
ed the lady and she flew to his arms.—
That was the day on which she hared her
arm in the kitchen and Jop was the hap
piest man out.
The marriage was soon consummated
aud Mr. ami Mrs. Jop left the house and
set up a hash factory on their own ac
count.
Kind, reader, look not iuto your hush,
for the futuie lies not therein. Hash is
a mystery, still it is not the future. It lias
its peculiarities aud its hair. Despise it
not for it was the means of blending two
hearts into one and making two people
rhe happiest on earth.
The Latest Sensation.
THE MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OK AL
LEN O. JONES ACCOUNTED Volt.
HE IS KNOWN TO BB A DEFAULTER Volt A
LAItOB AMOUNT.
Savannah Advertiser.]
The disappearance of Mr. Allen G.
Jones, tlie exchange clerk of (he Southern
Bank of the State of Georgia, is no longer
a mystery, and ihe story of his departure
from this city by the Charleston train on
the night of the 21st ultimo, for the pur
pose of making a business visit to Kings
ton, S. C., in behalf of a relative, needs a
little revision in order that the true history
of Ihe affair may be understood by the
readers of The Advertiser, who, in com-’
mou with all our citizens, had, up to yes
terday morning, begun to feel a sympathy
relative to his fate iu that lonely adven
ture (!) through one of tlie swamps of
South Carolina.
The young man who is the subject of
this notice is a
NATIVE or B.VNGOIt, MAINE,
and two years ago was assigned tlie posi
tion of clerk in tlie above named bank on
the recommendation of Mr. Eugene Kelly.
At the time of liis admission to the insti
tution the matter of requiring a boud of
about ten thousand dollars was, we learn,
discussed, but the motion was eventually
overruled, and Mr. Jones commenced to
discharge the duties assigned him. He
must have enjoyed tlie entire eoufklence
of his superiors, for he was permitted to
have the control of the book of account of
exchange with other hauking institutions
which transact business with the Southern
Bank of the State of Georgia. Iu this
hook were a number of drafts, only iu part
filled up by the signature of Ills superior,
the clerk, Mr. Jones, having the privilege
of filling in the required amounts. These
drafts were each attached to a stub in the
and when a draft was made on
another banking institution, tbe stub was
retained in the book with Mr Jones’ can
celling entered uppn it. If a draft were
destroyed or not it was easy for Mr. Jones,
if he were inclined to he dishonest, to
cancel the stub to suit his own con
venience. It appears Mr. Jones was in
clined to be dishonest, aud that the signed
drafts were filled up by him for certain
sums, probably amounting to
THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS,
though not in excess of that amount, some
lime during the past two or three months.
We learn that Jones’ checks were upon
the National Park Bank of New York, and
as they were made to his own order he
went to the bank in New York after leav
ing Savannah and drew the money, though
it is possible that he may have made checks
on other I anking houses us well. Tlie re
serve fund of the bank here is stated by the
directors to be more than sufficient to cover
the entire loss, and 'the capital stock will
remain unimpaired.
THE ritOI.QNGED ABSENCE
of Mr. Jones excited the suspicion of
his supciiors a few days ago, and notwith
standing tlie reports relative to the possi
bility of his having been fouly dealt with,
they at once began to
EXAMINE THE HOOKS,
and to ascertain from oilier sources wheth
er or not the missing clerk had been
doing some business for the emolument of
himself with other houses with which
this bank wus iu correspondence, and on
Tuesday evening their suspicions were so
far confirmed as to prompt them to
OBTAIN HIS PHOTOGRAPH,
and to take such immediate steps that
would be likely to lead to his apprehen
sion. The
SEARCH OF Mlt. STANLEY
will, therefore, be abandoned as soon as
that estimable ctergyman shall have leurn
ed 4hat* the object of hi* quest is not dead,
but “ well off” with money, time and dis
tance in Lis favor. Bat tlie telegraph,
that subtle agent which the Indians of the
plains have aptly named ’-long tongue,”
luts already told the circumstances of his
flight to every leading detective in the
country, and we may hear of the arrest of
the operator at any moment.
Mr. Jones, during his residence iu this
| city, won the regard of many citizens, es
pecially those connected with the Protes-
I taut Episcopal churches of Savannah. He
l was a communicant of the above named
MACON, GA., FRIDAY, MARCH 7, 1878.
church, and for soinetitno studied for the
ministry. About a year ago he had so far
progressed with his studies, that he felt
warranted to apply for an examination
and to appear as a
cahwdale for holy orders.
Right Reverend Bishop Beckwith re
fused to ordain him, for the reason that
the applicant had no support, and that if
lie were ordained, he could netpursuo any
other buiincss than that of a minister. It
is possible the Bishop may have some
other motive for refusing to ordain the ap
plicant, and in the light of recent devel
opments, it is very proper that the request
of Mr. Jones was not granted. However,
the young man continued as a layman to
read at times the service of the church,
principally in St. John’s chapel, or, what
is more recently known as St. Mathew’s
church. lie enjoyed, too, the eiitire con
fidence of Rev. Mr. Stanley, and it is and
to reflect that he lias proved himself so
unworthy even of the slightest regard.
During the past summer Mr. Jones mar
ried a very estimable young lady in New
York and returned with his hri Je to Ba
vunngh. Far he it from us to add to the
mortification which must be felt by her
self aud friends at the sad ami strange con
duct of him who should have been her
stiength and support —the invulnerable
shield to protect her agaiusl every calamity.
Let not the harsh voice of criticism vent
one syllable of condemnation on any hut
those who deserve it; and let us all hope
the circumstances of the affair may prove
after all to be less aggravated than they
now appear to be.
