A most disgraceful occurrence which
happned last Monday evening and was
perpetrated by a young man of this
vaclnlty, and who lives riot far from!
this town, lias been reported to this
office It seem* that the young man In
i|ue*tloa was lurking around the stable* !
located on a resident lot here, and a* a
young la ly. who It seem* had. before
retiring, been told by her mother to
go to the barn and close the door to the
chicken house, wa* carrying out her
mother's Instructions, he mad* a hold
advance toward* her. Mhr had just
secured uic uoor ami started 10 return
to the house when the young man ad- ’
vanecd and made an indecent proposal
to her. The girl managed to escape
and made off to the house without
further molestation. The young man
was plainly Identified by the girl and
tt was tboeght at Aral to have him ar
retted and brought before a court of
justice, but upon considering the em
barrassing position it would place the
family in, the suit was not pushed. We
wl*h, however, to state in this connec
tion that the citizens of Loup City have
their feelings considerably arroused
over the matter, and it will not be well
for tills young man or anyone else to
make another such an attempt The
matter is made public this time simply
as a word of warning and next time no
doubt an example will he made of the
guilty person.
King Unlemou's Motion -
That “There is nothing new under the
sun” docs not always convey the truth.
Kspecl'illy is this true as regards the
new composite car* now operated daily
via the Cbicagi, Union Pacific and
Northwestern Line between Sait Lake
City and Chicago. These handsome
Buffet Smoking and Library Cars are
entirely, new throughout of latest
design, contain all modern irnprov
meats, and are well supplied witn
writing material, the leading daily
papers, illustrated periodicals, maga
zines, etc. The fact that these cars
run daily via ‘The Overland Limited”
and that the Union PaciAc wts the line
west ef Chicago to inugerate this ser
vice should commend itself to ail. Bee
that your tickets read via “The Over
