Grand Rapids Herald-Review. Vol. XIV—No. 3. SUP PLEMENT. Grand Rapids, Itasca County, Minn., Saturday, July 14, 1906. Two Dollars a Year BRANLEY WAS NOT MURDERED The report circulated some days ago that Martin Branley had been murdered at Bemidji was later denied. A report from Bemidji-under date-of July 2, says: It was the general be- lief when Branley was first found, and died an hour afterwards, that he had met with foul play, as there were several wounds on his face and head that looked serious. In the question- ing Saturday, it developed that Bran- ley was with a party of foue men who were drinking from a jug, in frout of the Star theater building. At least three partjes testified to having seen Branley fall from the bench on which he was sitting. It developed at the coroner’s inquest that Branley su ffer- ed with heart failure, tugether with over-indulgence in liquor and that was the natural cause’ of death. Branley worked for Sheriff Hoolihan prior to going to Bemidji. Those who knew him state that he was of a peacable disposition and well-behaved.

This is how the supposition Jeaked out, During one of the warm “days of the late session R. H. Bennett was leaning against a pillar outside wrthe Polegama hotel, wondering “whether the judge would excuse him m:or not. One of our popular county of- dcificials was sitting in the corridor en- = joying a good cigar, when he was ap- proached by and old standby of the Rapids, who ioquired of bim who that Menpromihent, looking géntleman on the | the hutside was. When informed that it ok as’ Mr. Benuett, of Tnternationat For Falls, hé threw up his hands in horror ber And exclaimed: “Ugh! Bad gang! — Bad gang always come down from Hfithat town.’’—Border Budget. ‘Annual Pilgrimage to Ste Anne de Beaupre, Quebec On July 22nd The Duluth, South Shore will run their Popular Annual Excursion to the Shrine of Ste Anne de Beaupre, and, as heretofore will make a special rate of $25.00 for the round tnp. ‘Tickets good for stop- over at any point enroute, ‘This excursion 1s arranged so that passengers can participate in the im- pressive ceremonies of the now famous Feast of Ste Anne which falls this year on July 26th. : Palace and tourist sleeping cars, as well as coaches, will be run through and application for reservation in same shonid be addressed to A.

Be- cause the OLIVER is the simplified type- writer, And you can see every word you write. About 80 per cent. more dnrable than any other typewriter, because it has avout 80 per ceut. less wearing points than most other typewriters. 80 per cent. exsier to write with than these other complicated, intricate machines that require “humoring”’—technical knowledge— jong practice and special skill to operate; Than machines which cannot be adjusted to any special spuce—with which it is impossible to write abstracts, insurance policies. or odd- sized documents except you buy expensive special attachments requiring experts to operate, You can adjust the OLIVER to any reason- able space—you can write on any reasonable size and thickness of paper, right out to the very edge, without the aid of any expensive attachment or special skill, and your work will be neat appearing, legible and clear. For the OLIVER is the typewrite for the doctor, the lawyer, the insurance agent, the merchant, the hotel proprietor—or any man who does his own writing. 2 Write us now for our booklet on the simplified features of the ULIVER. - The OLIVER Typewriter Company 332 Heunepiu Ave. Minneapolis, Minn. ste ne
