LYING NEAR THE
STAR THEATRE.
Martin BrendIey Discovered by
Police on Platform in Front
o., I.
of Building.
Apparently Knocked Down and
Tramped on and Beat With
Driving Boots.

AS the result Of injuries in.
ficted by some party or parties
unknown, Martin Brendley died
this morning, and Chief of Police
Bailey and his assistants and
County Attorney Mcdonald are
conducting a searching investi-
cation into the cause of death
and the detection Of the person
or persons who inflicted the fatal
wounds. .
While Patrolman Smith was
making the rounds, at about 6
o'clock this morning, he found
Brendley lying on the sidewalk in
front Of the Star theatre build
ing, His face and head we're
badly cut and lacerated and Gov
cred with blood, and he was evi-
IDENTIFY in great pain. Near
Brendley were two men, who
afterwards gave their names as
Robert Thomas and "Rlackie. y
Mr.. Smith notified police head
quarters and the injured man
was removed to the police sta.
tion. DR.. Marcum was notified
and he made an examination of
Brendley, finding that his nose
had been broken in two places,
evidently by calks on driving
shoes, which had also penetrated
his foreheadin two places. There
was a bruise on the temple above
the right eye, abrasions on the
right side of the face, and also a
wound on the right side of the
chin.
The doctor gave Brendley
medicine, which revived him
somewhat, and then left for his
home to get breakfast. During
the absence of the doctor, the
man died. The bod y was taken
to Lahr's undertaking rooms,
where they were exposed for the
purpose of ascertaining any in

SENATE FINALLY ACCEPTS THE
CONFERENCE REPORT ON
THE MEASURE.
TILlNAR CR'TICIsEs THE PRESIDENT
SAYS EXECUTIVE is NOT CON.
SIsTENT IN HIS FIGHT ON
OIL TRUST.

Washington, June 30.-The senate
has agreed to the conference report
on the railroad rate bill, which passes
the measure.
When Senator Tillman called up
the report he renewed his attack upon
the pipe line amendment as being in
the interest of the Standard Oil COM
pany.
"Aboft the time the Allison amend
ments were incubating," he said,
there was great furore about the
Garfield report on the Standard Oil
company and we we're told that the
exposure of its crimes would help the
vote on the rate bill and under the
cover of this dust the president re-
tired from his advanced position on
railroad legislation and accepted the
Allison provision There the big stick
and the pitc. q llk, which had been in
alliance, found themselves separated
and the pitchfork, while doing duty
on the firing line, looked around only
to see the tail of it's associate hustling
towards the rear, sliding towards the
Allison base, to use baseball phrase.
The big stick was rushing in on all
fours to get between Father Allison's
legs" He had no fault to find, he
added, except that he considered the
president had been inconsistent in not
coming to the assistance of the sen
ate conferees. He considered it "a
little remarkable that just when he
might do something to thwart the pol
icy Of this gigantic monopoly he is as
mum as mouse, except that there is
now, another hurrah about what the
president is going to do to the Stand
ard Oil in the way of suits.''

the dead mans identity and
place of abode. Investigation
led to identifying the dead as
Martin Brendley.
The police arrested Robert
Thomas and ssBlackie," the men
found near Brendley, and later
took into s'limbo" six other men,
on suspicion Of knowing some
thing about the manner in which
:Brendley was injured.
When the latter was found,
there was Jug sof*gin by his SIDE.
Both Thomas and "Blackie .
were put through a vigorous
weating but they ssstood pat, :"
claiming with child.like inno-
cence, that they knew nothing
whatever of Brendley's injuries;
that he (Brendley) had fallen off
the bench, andsthey were densely
ignorant.
County Attorney Mcdonald
questioned the other men very
closely, with some small results.
Alfred Burke, the man who
F. 3 .
operates the saloon in the theater
building, says that he closed his
place at $3.50 a. NJ, and went to
bed and that at that time there
was no one around the front of
the theater. Up to the time he
fell asleep there were no unusual
noises and he was not awake ned
'sMy opinion is that the man
was beat up in the alley and
hauled to the front of the build
ing" declared Burke.

the time of the tragedy by the
statement of Nick Smith, who
boards with Mr.. Burke in the

ACCUSED OF CHANGING RECORD
DalzeIl (Pa.) Says Cooper (Wis.) Is
Not a Gentleman.

Washington, June 30.-The heated
controversy between Mr.. DalZell (Pa.)
and Mr.. Cooper .(Wis.), growing out
of the blanket rule to permit the con-
sideration Of conference reports with
out printing, had it's aftermath in the
house during the day. ~.
Under question of personal priv
ilege Mr.. Dalzell, with great delibera-
tion but showing deep feeling, called
the attention of the house to what he
charged amounted to a deliberate
change in the record by Mr.. Cooper
in changing the wording of the COLO
guy between them. Mr.. Dalzell, read
ing from the original notes OF the re-
pOrters on the sharp interchange
which occurred and then comparing
them with the manner in which they
appeared in the record, said that no
gentleman had a right to change the
substantial character of another gen
tlemans speech. But that was what
the change amounted to, he said. X
tsHe impugned the. motives of the
house and he impugned my motives,"' .
said Mr. DalZell. with no one by he
cunningly changed the substance.
There is only one way in which a gen
-tleman can retract words said in the
heat of debate and that is in the pres
ence of the one to whom the imputa-
tion is uttered"
Mr.. Dalzell asked that the exact
words of Mr.. Cooper should go into
the record instead Of the words as
they had appeared.
"This attack is not unexpected to
me-" said Mr. Cooper. "Ever since
voted against the Lake Erie canal bill
the gentleman from Pennsylvania has
been on edge with me- Mr. Cooper
justified the changes made on the
ground of bad reporting.
Byaa vote of Sc to 43 the remarks
of Mr. Cooper were expunged from
the record and the original remarks
inserted.

MYSTERIOUS MIJRDERI IN EARLY HOURS OF
MORNING; LUMBERJACK is FOUND DYING
Bemidjl was the scene Of a murder
early this morning. Martin Brendley,

Bemidji was the scene Of a murder
early this morning. Martin Brendley,
lumberjack, was found In dying condi-
tion, badly bruised and battered about
the face and head, onthe platform Of the
Star theatre, at just about the hour
when the business public was eating
breakfast.
He had evidently been lying there for
several hours, and his breath was com-
ing ii, labored gasps. He died shortly
afterward.
The exact manner Of the killing cam
not be known until the murderer or
eye-witnesses tell the story, but every
evidence points to his having been
knocked down and tramped on and
kicked with heavy driving boots. The
marks Of the calks are ON his face.
The motive fer the crime has not yet
been unearthed, nor has the murderer
been discovered, although several men
are under suspicion. The case is envel-
oped in mystery.
The police and county attorney are
working assiduously running down all
clues and everything that can be done
to discover the guilty is being done.

had an utter contempt for shysters
and for the men who pack political
conventions. There was intense feel

The Farmers wife

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it a sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that if her churn is sour it will faint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesseS which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is 1t not apparent
then that If this stomach-churn is foul it
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil of 8 foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption Of
the pure current of blood and the diSsem-
nation Of disease throughout the body.
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-absolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment. In this way it cures blotches,
pimples, eruptions, scrofulous swellings,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.
If you have bitter, nasty, foul taste in
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and respondent, have frequent headaches,
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom-
ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour
or bitter risings after eating and poor

THE ''RA|NY day.

In everybody's life the pro-
verbal "rainy day" is pretty
sure to come, sooner or later.
Fortunate indeed is the
person who, when it arrives,
is prepared for it.
The way for persons of
moderate means to guard
against the needs of the
"rainy day." is to inaugurate
now a systematic plan of
saving. Most persons who
are improvident do not mean
to be so. They either do not
understand the Importance
Of small economics or they
have neglected to save
because they have never tried
a practical system.
Building up a Savings
Account in bank is the
greatest incentive to system
attic saving.
And when you save a little
as you go, you are ever pre-
pairing for the demands of
