Cannot Be Found.
Mrs. Carl DeisterhoflT, living on
the Geo. Ware farm, in Logan town
ship has misteriously disappeared
and cannot be found. While her
husband was away from home last
Saturday she left home and has not
been seen or heard of since and it
is feared that some terrible accident
has befallen her. The husband,
after searching for her Sunday,
came to town and reported the case
to the county attorney, and a party
was at once formed and a further
search instituted. For several
months past Mrs. Deiaterhoff has, at
times become mentally unbalarced
and it may be that she has simply
wandered away and may finally be
located.

Death
Mrs. Outhouse, mother of A. B.
and C. C. Outhouse, died at the
home of her son 0. C. Outhouse in
this city early last Sunday morning,
August 23d., 1903 of cancer of the
stomach. She had been in very
poor health for several months past
and for some three or four weeks it
was quite evident that she could not
recover. The best of medical at
tendance was secured and all that
hands could do was done to alleviate
her suffering. The funeral services
were held at the house Monday and
the remains, accompanied by A. B.
Outhouse, were taken to her old
home at Carlyle, 111. for burial.
Mrs. Outhouse was 68 years old at
the time of her death. After break
ing down in health some two years
ago she came to Loup City to live
with her sous and her kind disposi
tion and gentle manner had won the
hearts of all who made her aquaint
ance. The sorrow stricken rela
tives have the sympathy of all our
citizens.

Mr. Gpo. Finch, of Da vis Creek,
8on-in-law of Mrs. G. H. Scott of
this city died at his home in Valley
county ou Thursday, August 20th.,
li)03, of rkumatism of the heart
Mr. Finch is a well known citizen
to many of the old settlers of Sher
man county. We have no particu
lars of his death other than it is
thought that it was over hard work
which caused the rhumatism to go
to the heart. Mrs. Scott and his
brother and sister-iD-law, Mr. aud
Mrs. William Sharp, drove over fiom
here Friday to attend the funeral
which took place at the Finch home
Friday, August 2 1st.
