A AvERIrABLE GOLD NINE.

Was the schome Worked by the Blstel
women-More Goods Turning Up.
On Saturday the police put in the en-
tire day searching for articles stolen by
the Bistel women and sold by them to
other people. Goods of all kinds and
OF all qualities are piled up at police
headquarters. Dress goods, calicoes,
fine towels, shawls, albums, table cloths,
white goods, baby dresses and caps, sil-
verware, spoons, necklaces. watch
chains and scores Of other articles being
among them. Some articles were sold at
such ridiculous prices, that the pur-
chasers must have known that they
were stolen.
All the shoes found have been iden-
tilted by Mr.. Hasenauer. Q. E. Stifel d
Co. have identified fine lace skirt, sew
eral baby dresses and some fine towels.
Henry Jacobs found some OF his towels
A quantity Of silver spoons, two beauti-
full baby dresses, five or six expensive
towels and other things have not yet
been identified. Considering the num-
ber of people in whose possession the
stolen goods were found, itseems strange
that not one OF them volunteered the
information that they were in their pos
session. They give them up willingly
enough when the police appear. Any
person having bought anything from
the Miller children is liable to be asked
at any time to give them up, for as soon
as one woman is approached by the
police and asked for the goods, she al
ways give the names OF neighbors who
have made purchases.
Some parties have stated that the
children had been selling goods SO long
a time that they had come to suppose
they were regular peddlers. On Satur-
day Chief Delbrugge searched Il henrietta
Bistell's house in North Wheeling, and
found three after dinner coffee spoons,
two of which were marked "Ase," the
third having the letter "Bn in German
text marked on it. The police will con-
tinue the good work to-day, and expect
to make good haul. The girl Ida has
been again questioned, and has given
the police list Of names OF persons who
had been her customers.

AsBuRY PARK, N. j., Sept. e.-The Wis.,
itors who journeyed to the beach yes
terday to watch the unusually heavy
seas were treated to a sight rarely seen
near shore. About o'clock the wind
was blowing furiously from the north
east. Suddenly the sea at a spot near
shore was unusually agitated and as the
eyes of all were directed to the spot,
huge water spout formed and began
moving seaward in southeasterly di-
rection.
The volume of water was balloon
shaped and was fully 800 feet high.
There were no vessels in its truck, but
Tyler Emmons, fisherman, narrowly
escaped being caught by the mountain
of water. He saw it approaching and
pulled his boat out Of the way Of the

incoming breakers rolled mountain
high for half an hour aftor the spout

The officers Of the Wheeling & Lake
