 KANSAS C1TY. Feb. 1.-At Kearney, Clay county, on Friday night at dust, John Soper, e farmer, went into his barnyard, accompa- nied by his little son. While engaged there the boy heard man fercely exclaim 'sGod d-n you, am going to kill you" Immedi- ately three shots were fired, and the boy saw the assassin run through cornield and es- cape, while his father fell to the ground, pierced through the brain. He lived three hours. Kearney is the home of the James brothers, and many people connect Soper's death with them, assigning an old feud as the cause. There is no probability of the act having been done by them in person, but it is suspected to have been done by their friends.

The prevailing impression is that the Wilburs caused the arrest of Gurley to get the money from him, as it is understood an offer has been made to settle the case. Gurley threatens to arrest Wilbur for ,blackmail. The students say Wilbur caught Gurley in suspicious circumstances would have shot him but for the interference of the student Wilbur. The students believe Gurley was deliberately roped into committing the crime in order to fleece him because he WAS a rich mans son

A Student in Trouble.

W1LL1AMsTowN, Feb. 1.-The talk of the town is concerning the arrest of l.. N. Cur ley, of the senior class of Williams College, for adultery with Mrs. Wilbur, of North Adams. Gurley, who is son of man who last year ran for Mayor in Troy, N. r., has bsen intimate with William Wilbur, jr., also of the senior class, and distant relative of the Mrs. Wilbur referred to. The general inn pression among the students is that Gurley is guilty of the crime with which he is charged,
 and it is said that he has been aware for some time that Wilbur had letters proving his crime. Some time ago the students say Cur ley paid the expenses of Wilbur to Troy in company with 8 freshman from that city,
 who was in league with Gurlsy. During their absence Gurley, it is alleged. wentthrough Will bur's desk in search of these letters, but failed to find them. Now, say the students. Gurley went to North Adams on the evening of Sat- urday in company with Wilbur, and while they were away fire was started in Wilbur's room and barely discovered in time to save the building, which cost $60, ,0o0.
