From parties that came from Opolls, Kansas, last night, we learn of serious trouble at that place.

A cousin of the notorious James boys rode into town Tues-dav, and during the day had made the acquaintance of a wealthy cattle man. Who was well known to have consider-! able money about his person. The rob- ber laid his plans for robbing him that night, but it leaked out some way, and the cattle man deposited his money in the bank before night. But the robber was not to have his plans frustrated ill that way, and meeting his friend on the street in the afternoon, he knocked him down and attempted to rob him in broad day light and while a hundred people were looking at him. He did not sue ceed, however, and a number of shots were exchanged between the citizens and the robber.

Two parties were snot du-rinj the affray, but not seriously, and hifijhway robber rode out of town un molested. His bold daring was characK teristic of the James boys, and the report that he was a cousin of the boys sent ter-ror throughout the quiet little village of Opolis- Joplin Herald. The man who was knocked down as described above, is the well-knowa Jim Haystack, and the exact scene of the bold attempt at robbery wai on the pavement 1304 Broadway, near the Metropolitan Hotel. It seems he deposited his wealth ia Sand Bank on Fourth Avenue, previous to the trouble. The two citizens wounded are Messrs.
