Restaurant.

When a customer enters an Italian
restaurant In New York, he is supposed
TO have bestowed himself upon that
particular establishment for the pur-
pose Of procuring spaghetti, says the
Sun. The experienced patron yields TO
the requirements Of the restaurant and
enjoys the spaghetti when ne gets IT,,
though there is no positive assurance
in an Italian restaurant at what point
the spaghetti will appear any more than
there is when the cheese or salad will be
served. II is no unusual thing In an Ital-
ian restaurant for a dinner to be begun
with salad. and cheese. grated and served
in a saucer, is generally brought in with
the soup instead OF at the end OF the re-
past.
The unsophisticated patron of an Ital-
ian restaurant in New York, high or low
expensive or cheap. celebrated or new,
can in one way only cause surprise. Dor

tors. employees and patrons Of the es-
adjustment alike. and that is by declar-
ing with firmness at the proper mo-
ment:
Il don't care for spaghetti. Take It
away"
Such a declaration. seldom made and
never repeated in the same restaurant.

ONLY ONE NEGRO IN HEAVEN.
None Other Can Go There, Says Leader
in Mormon Church.

None Other Can Go There. says Lead er
in Mormon Church.
Only one negro has ever entered
heaven. and the gates of heaven arr
closed against members of the black
race. This 10 the latest doctrine pro.
mulgated by the Mormon Church.
The announcement was made last
Sunday at the funeral services Of Eu
gene Burns, one of the most prominent
colored men in Utah. The Rev. d. A.
Brown, pastor of the First Baptist
Church. had just finished his sermon
eulogizlng the dead negro, when Pat
riarch Miner, president Of one of the
quOrums of the Seventies of the Nor.
mon Church, walked up to the pulpit
and, to the CONSERVATION of the mourn
ers, began highly sensational dis
course.
He declared that the dead man
could not enter heaven. He said that
an Ethiopian could not reach the state
Of eXaltation necessary to entra nee
into heaven. His soul was doomed be
fore his birth.
Eugene Burns was grandson OF
Abel Burns, the body servant Of Jo
seph Smith, the prophet Of the Nor
mon Church. Abel, according to Pat
riarch Miner, Is the only one of his
race who ever succeeded In gaining
into heaven. The reason he was sue
cessful was his fidelity to JOSEPH
Smith, the prophet.
For the colOred race" said Patri
arch Miner, there is an exalted state
in the next world into which they
may go. Provision has been made In
the teachings of the Prophet Joseph &c
that the negro may step up into thai
preliminary state Of exaltation. and
when he gets there a chance is giver
him to accept redemption according te
the teachings Of Joseph Smith,"
Mr.. Brown Immediately arose and
declared that no such teachings exist
ed In the Bible. In refutatiOn Of the
assertions Of the patriarch he read
several selections from the Bible, cit
ing instances where men with black
skins had been saved.

She had known him ever since he
was a child Of two years. She was a

q long absence from home, she called
upon them and asked at once:
where is Jemmie?"
He was In the room a few minutes
ago." was the answer. Il think he
must be here still"
Presently Jemmie's tiny form was
discovered. stretched on the under
shelf of a table. The visitor went to
secure the prize, and asked:
what are you doing there, Jem-

In one small hand was a pencil,
perhaps two inches long, and in the
other q morsel of paper about three

portions the little artist was even then
doing work that showed an exquisite
promise.
