The meanest man in the world lives in
Panaca. When he pays his tithing he
picks out all the little and spotted carrots
and gives them in as the church's share.
He is one Of the fellows who will not
wear wings after death. He will have

Sister Doe claimed to have sold Sister
Roe number of turkeys, which Sister
Roe never paid for, but claimed having
settled the bill by bet she won from
Sister Doe. The knotty question was

Owing to Bishop Lee refusing Harve
Langford permit to marry Susie Jack
son Of Toquerville, Harve has gone to
Salt Lake to secure a permit from
the head of the church. Harve and his
uncle Turnbull had some trouble and the
old man set the dog on Harve, and Harve
in turn shot the dog. The Bishop will
not permit Harve to marry unless he
makes up friends with his uncle, and
Harye says he will see the old man id
6rst. Even US good church people have
our family troubles.
The other evening case of lover the
garden wall" happened in our village.

now aware that the old mans boot il
loaded, and has decided to let his riva
have q clear field. The love he enter
tanned for that girl has been all knocket
out of him.
The Mormon Church is again trying b
compel its followers to obey the old ah
stnence law. Bishop Lee, of our stake
ha, been preaching it for the last thre
Sundays, and says that he was Directs
by the High Church Council at Salt LAX
City to warn and order the members Q
the church at Panaca not to indulge an,
longer in the use of either tea or coffee
All who dlsobeyed this order was to b
cut off from the church, and when the
died they would never be permitted t
climb the golden stairs, with silver bal
ustrades. that lead to the Celestial Cam
poody, for at the bottom of the stair
would be two Destroying Angels o
guard, and they would not let them pa,
up. The Bishop is sincere in what b
has done, and has obeyed the orders {
his superiors, but where does the harl
come from by drinking cup of deliciou
tea or coffee, The Coop. Of Salt Lax
. have just shipped two carloads Of t.
down to st. George, and the church,
,, the face OF this, have ordered that i
l flock drink neither tea or coffee. Tn
