A TRAGIC END.
Loup City people who were acquaint
ed with Frank Chamberlain, a young
man who visited with friends near
here and also assisted R. H. Mathew
in his office here, were shocked to
read in the daily papers one day last
week of his death, and by his own
hand. Mr. Chamberlain left here on
October 12th after spending several
weeks in Loup City and vicinity and
had made a host of friends during his
visit here. He graduated from a law
school some time ago and a brilliant
future was predicted for him, as he
acquitted his studies with the highest
honors. It appears that he was hav
ing difficulty in finding a location and
this, in connection with worrying over
his financial condition unbalanced his
mind. The deed that endejj in his
death was his second attempt at
self destruction, the first time he cut
his wrists and throat wiht a razor,
but was recovering nicely, when he
leaped from a third story window at
Dedford, Iowa, dying shortly after.
The remains were taken to his home
at West Point, Nebr., for internlent.

LOUP CITY’S DAILY.
The November number of the Ne
braska Record reached our office this
week, increased in size and with a
pleasing cover design.
Among the many interesting articles
in the November number is a good
story af the Big Barbecue at Loup City,
a tale of the first train service to
this city, which was on June 4, 1886.
This article is written in a highly in
teresting style and is closed with a
number of articles clipped from Loup
City’s first and only daily, “The Daily
Times,” published on that day by O.
B. Willard.
A pleasing article on “Litchfield”
and surroundings, is the first article
in the magazine and is illustrated by
a cut of the historical elm, where the
fourth of July celebrations of long
ago were held.
The educational department of The
Record is very complete in the last
number and a continued story “Lo
homa,” a breezy story of the great out
doors, commences in this issue..
As the subscription price of the Ne
braska Record is only 25 cents a year
we believe it is within the reach of all.
It covers a field peculiarly its own
and when you figure that it costs but
a little over two cents a copy, the ex
pense is trifling.
