ANOTHER LIE NAILED.
The London Times Correspondent in Chill.
Caught at 1t Again.

The London Times Correspondents in Chill,
Caught at 1t Again.
VALPARAISO. Dec. 12, via GALVESTON.
The statement recently sent to the
London Times by it's correspondent to
the effect that United States Minister
Egan had, during the recent CORE
spondence between the United States
and the government at Santiago,
sent several insulting notes to
Minister of Foreign Affairs Malta,
which had caused proposition,
to be presented to the Gillian
congress looking to the suppression of
Gillian legation at Washington, which,
proposition had only been defeated by
the government exerting its influence
to the utmost, is unqualifiedly false
The matter has not even been discussed
by the government or by congress, and
all indications point to desire on the
part of congress to keep up the amicables
relations which have existed for SO long
a time with the United States.

A BAD SON.

He Attempts to Rob His Mother-She
Escapes, He is Arrested and is Now in
Jail.
NEWTON. Mass, Dec. 10.-An afro
:ious attempt at robbery was made in
this place Tuesday night, in which a

lection, was the principal. Mrs.
Bridget Carney keeps small store in
River street, and at Z o'clock Tuesday
night, while alone in the place two men
entered, one of whom, in a disguised
but brutal tone, demanded her money.
The men had their hats down over their
faces and the woman did not recognize
them at the first glance. She refused to
comply with the demand. whereupon
the spokesman threatened to kill her.
Suiting his action to his words, the ruff
fan sprang forward and forced the
woman to a lounge in the store. at the
same time calling upon his companion
to strap her. During the scuffie the
hat of the man who had grasped Mrs.
Carney fell to the ground, and the poor
woman, though half dead with
fright, was still more Mortified to
recognize in her chief assailant her own
son Joseph, who had been in New York
for some time, and who had returned
unknown to her. Mrs Carney said she
would give her son the money if he
would allow her to go in back room
where it was kept to fetch it. Be did
SO, and she took the opportunity IN es-
cape by back door. whence she vent
in search of the police.
In the police court yesterday mora
ing Carney was held in $1,000 bail for
trial, and Denue, his companion, in
$500.

A Telephone Register.

The present system of charges TO.
the use of telephones by annual sub

inasmuch as some subscribers speak
often and much. whereas others use
the telephone only occasionally. In
some German telephone offices an cleo

telephone, which will work as long as
the telephone is off the hook, and stops
directly it is replaced; the service is
charged for according to the time re-

that unnecessary conversations are

observance. paper ON equal suffrage was
read by Mrs. n. J. Tweed. Unlimited suffrage,
she said, meant much for the women as for
the men, and the possession of the ballot by
the women would be step toward the final
triumph of temperance. Mrs. Ella Wood, OF
Carondelet who read paper on the attitude of
the church toward temperance work, criticised
church people for their connection with
the saloon element. She scored those who rent
buildings for saloon purposes A letter from

was brought up by Mrs. J. T. Field. Mrs. Field
desires that the W c. 7. q. furnish the wine for
