KOHN CASi;. Two Children,! IIojm, ttptrlted A way, Their Hair wan Ityed and Then They Were ltreNHcd lu ilrlH clothe. Spkinufiri.I), 0., April 20. The mys tery surrounding probably the must sen satiniiiil case of child stealing since the Charlie Koss nlTair has jusl Ihtii sol veil by the arrest ol Miss Iillie Cutler, Miss llnincr, Miss llatchclcr and Ellen Talbot nil cliinee of stealing Ir. Niks' children, at the instigation of their lather, Dr. Xilei. The story of the stealing reads mure like a romance than like sober reality. Dr. and Mrs. Niles had liccii lighting in the courts for the custody ol (heir chil dren some time. Three weeks ago, on the eve ol the decision of the court, the children were stolen anil could nut lie found. Miss Kllcu Tallin!, dressmaker, liar confessed thai she lined a horse and l'"ggy stole the children al live o'clock in the morning fin in tht house where the shriill had plaerd them for sale keeping. She drove Ihein twenty miles to a lonelv country place, belong ing to Mr. and Mrs. Cullei . There they were kept in secret ami allowed to see no one. Miss Talbot further confessed that abniil n week afterward she again went into the country ami visited the house wherethc children were confined. They were taken into a room ami the curls ol the hoys Paul ami Louis, aged reflec tively 1 months anil 4 years, were cut off Some powerful hair dve was then applied and llieir hair became a deep black. They were then dressed in suits of girls' clothing completing the disguise. The children were then taken to Pitts burg aud liuallv to Howell, Michigan. The lather was arrested and lodged in jail on the cnarge ol child mealing, as lit is said to have planned tlic whole scheme. It is liclic-Vk.il by the lawyers engaged on the case that the olVcncc is clearly com prehended under the ilhin slntule on kid napping or child stealing for which the punishment is from one to twenty years in the imiiunti.irv. Dr. Mills had the children stolen, be cause it wasgcnerallv thought the courts would give them lo his wife aud she threatened to put them in a convent, to which he was violently opposed. Mrs. ISruucr and Mrs. Kate Katchrlcr. were arrested last night for complicity in the kidnapping. Mis. lialc'neler is the hoarding housekeeper with whom the children were left for safe keeping. The shcrilf has received a telegram from Michigan saving that the children will oon be returued. AN ITALIAN W KI.COM K. Tbe PreMldenl Received One nt tialveHluii VchIi ila.

Two large cars arc used for hoisting and lowering men nnd minerals in the colliery in the l.ougton conl district.

Further work upon the passage through which the food supplies were passed, enabled the men engaged in the work of rescue to haul 2011 miners, out hy one, out of the mine.
