OLIVER
Typewriter
The Standard Visible Writer

You can write any of these things yourself if
you do not happen to have stenographer.
For you can easily learn, with little practice,
TO write just as rapidly, and as perfectly, as an
expert operator the Oliver. Because the
Oliver is the simpliiied typewriter. And you
can see every word you write. About 80 per
cent mere durable than any other typewriter,
because it has about 50 per cent less wearing
points than most other typewrters.
80 per cent easier to write with than these
other complicated intricate machines that
require "humoring'-technical knowledge
long practice and special skill to operate.
Than mac hines which cannot be adjusted to
any special space-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 reasonable
sp.ce-you ca4write on anv reasonable size
and thickness of paper, right out to the edge,
with out the aid of any expensive attach
meut or special skill, and your work will be
neat appearing, legible and clear.
For the Oliver is the typewriter for the doc.
tor, the lawyer, the incurance agent, the mer-
chant, the hotel proprietor-or any man who
does his own writing.
Write us now for our booklet on the simpli-
fed features of the Oliver.

South Chicago, July 3O.-South Chi
cago may be affected by another gener-
al police shakeup, and information pur-
porting to be directly from Chief
Shippy's office is to the effect that ten
additional men will be added to the
South Chicago detail. These men are
expected to go on duty August l. The
addition to the South Chicago police
is, however, only one of the plans that
are to be carried after Chief Shippy
makes his announcement before leav-
ing for his summer vacation.
The names of Nicholas Hunt, Patrick
j. LAWN are again looming up for re-
instatement, and twenty of the men
who have been in the detective office
may be sent back to the prairies. A
change that may affect South Chicago
to some extent in the personnel of
its officers is that reported about Cap
tain DOrman. who it is said will
be transferred to Hyde Park, and
that he is to be supplanted in South
Chicago by Captain OBrien. When
asked about his prospective change.
Captain Dorman said this morning that
he had received no advice one way or
the other.

machine from Temple.
I know nothing of Temple. except
ing that he roomed at the South Chi

of fellow and we were pretty good
friends, but [ never questioned him
about his private affairs"
The inquest over Temple was held
this morning at Browns morgue. and
up to that time he had not been claim

him say that at times he was inclined
to be reckless. and that only a few
weeks ago he purposely ran his auto

explain the tragedy.
Last night at about nine o'clock a
local business man while driving his
machine through Hessvile in the dir

The road was narrow and the Hammond

dropping and the swerving of his ma

At first the local automobilist feared
that there would be a collision but at
the last moment the driver of the other
machine came to his senses enough to
throw his machine to one side and en-
able the Hammond man to pass.

aroused and he could not put the pecul-
