LONDON TIMES IS HOAXED
By Tale of an Irish Mother Sepa-
 rated From Her Offsprinq.

LONDON, Feb. II. - Some joker has been perpetrating hoax at the expense of the London Times and two Irish newspapers. In letter to the Times he gave details 'of a cruel and heartless desertion of the victim of so-called 'unhallowed union by the partner who should have remained faithful to her for life" The letter proceeded:
 The case has received considerable notice in the Belfast News Letter and the Northern Whig.
 The poor mother. thinking that at least she should have her children to comfort her, was, however, not only abandoned by her natural pro, tectOr but robbed of her offspring.
 Sir, this occurred close to Bangor, within 12 miles of Belfast, and I am in a position to say that the foul robbery of flesh and blood was perpe trated by member of an Irish secret society.
 No terms were dictated because no terms would have been accepted and the unfortunate creature was deprived of that which by all laws of nature was nearest and dearest to her.
 But there is bright side to the picture. l can say that the mother is in no state of destitution. She is being at present amply provided for by a well known and respected elder of the Presbyterian church."
 The three hoaxed journals have now learned to their discontinue that the foregoing pathetic story re- lated to a cat whose kittens had been taken and drowned soon after their birth

 The strangest part of MT. Coo ney's experiment, however, lies in the influence on the chickens of the proximity of the plants and flowers. The eggs, after the first few days f their confinement. began to have a peculiar and especially dainty fla vor. he shells were more or less tinted. The eggs, according to MT.

When the train bear ing the company arrived at the sta ton and I stepped from the car was met by an excited individual who introduced himself as one of the edi- tors of the papers.
 - want three cuts from you inn mediately.' he shouted as soon as he had made himself known.
 'I was somewhat surprised at this demand and told the irate editor that I didn't carry cuts, that part of the business being looked after by the advance agent.
 Your advance agent is a lobster, he shouted. He gave our rival up the street eight cuts and only gave us six. and I've got to have three more in order to beat that imitation paper that is getting proud of the fact that it is printing more cuts of your show than we are
 Of course l didn't have any cuts. but I will lay a small bet that that editor still thinks that the advance agent and I were in a conspiracy to help his rival beat him"
