The wheat crop in Kansas will be
small, but those who happen to have a
crop will realize from IS cents to dol
lar per bushel; thus, should we have a
good corn crop, and the prospects are
very fattering, our farmers will be tinan-
cially much better off than they were
last year with large yield of wheat, and
ruinous prices ruling the market.

A Horrible Murder.

John Sharpless, one of the most
prominent Orthodox Friends in Del
aware county, was most foully MUIR
dered at his farm in Neither Provi-
dence township, about two miles from
Chester, on the 22nd inst. His farm
is located in lonely road. At nine
o'clock at night strange colored
man called at the house while it was
raining. He found Mr.. Sharpless sit
ting with his family. He induced
him to. 60 to the barn with him for
some straps, under the pretext that a
carriage, in which were three ladies,
had broken down in the road. When
in the stable the negro struck Mr.
Sharpless on the back of the head
with q Ratchet, crushing his skull,
and killing him instantly. After ia k
ing his watch the negro put out the
lantern and returned to the house for
the purpose, it is thought, Of killing
all therein-Mrs. Sharpless and the
three other women. In reply to
question he said he wanted money,
and advanced toward one of the wom-
en-, at the same time asking what had
become of young girl, whom he
missed from the company. Upon
learning that she had gone out, and
the colored servant being sent for, the
villain left. A neighbo4'; barn was
fred q short time after the murder
and burned, with all the crops, farm.
ing implements and four head of
horses, it is believed by the murderer
to distract attention. The body of
John Sharpless was found in the sta,
BILE where he had fallen. $1,000 have
been offered for the apprehension of
the murderer, $500 by the family, and
$500 by the county. A colored man
was arrested the next day in Philadel.
phia by the police who is suspected
of the murder. He gives his name as
Isaac Lewis, and says he has no home.
It is the belief of some persons in this
vicinity that this is the same negro
who did the robbing in this town a
few weeks ago.
