Had Only Few Weeks to Live Five
Years Ago; Star OutfieIder Now

Washington, Jan. 22.-There's not
a fan in the country who, gazing on
Howard Shanks now, would. believe
that only five years ago he was told
that he could live no more than a few
weeks and that he would die a victim
of consumption. Shanks is now one
Of the star outfielders Of the American
league, a husky lad, with one of the
best throwing arms in the game.
Shanks has performed much like
the Federal league. He was pro.
nounced almost dead. but accomplish.
ed a vigorous comeback.
Back in 1910 Shanks was Outfield-
ing with Liverpool in the old 0. P.
while Canton and Akron were fight
ing tooth and nail for the pennant.
At the close of the season lie took
himself to a medical gent, who ham,
mered his chest, listened to the work
ing of his bellows and then shook his
head sorrowfully.
"My boy, you amt got more than
a couple of weeks to live. Prepare
for the end" Such was the ncour
aging ultimatum poured into the
young OuunelOefS ears.
Shanks beat it over to Monacca,
Pa, just across the river from East
Liverpool. For some reason he chose
to die there.
The examination of Shanks was
made at the solicitation of the Pitts
burg club, who thought a lot Of
Shank's skill, but was skeptical about
his general health. When the doc
tors report was. submitted, the
Pirates, of course, gave up all thought
Of sharing Shanks.
Shanks went over to the Pennsyl-
vania town prepared to die. Early In
the spring Bill Phillips, manager of
the East Liverpool team, nearly col.
lapsed when he got a letter from
Shanks asking when and where he
should report for spring training.

AGAIN ON JOB
Mercury Dropped to 10 Degrees
Below Yesterday and Kept
Going Down.

The temperature took a decided
drop yesterday and last night contin'
ued on a downward plunge that bids
fair to chase the mild weather Of the
early part of the month to Kingdom
come" The lowest temperature yes-
terday, or up to Z o'clock in the even

at midnight the mercury had taken
another drop of 10 degrees with a
tendency to go even lower. Yester-

and fair weather.
Recall Severe Storm.
Old timers in the state will recall
with vivid recollection, the terrible
blizzard Of 1888, when the worst
storm in the history of the northwest
visited North Dakota.
A reporter was reminded yesterday
of the anniversary CT that long to be
remembered storm having but resent
ly passed and of the difference be-
tween the winters OF an early day
and those of the present.
It was on January T., iSS, that q
blizzard of unheard of fe-ocity swept
over the frontier, and more than 800
persons persisted. The day had been
bright and warm, ,#7d farmers had
taken advantage e. lie fine day to
drive to the settler ats for their
fuel and to trade. Tlere no
telephones Or rural MAIL carriers in
those days, in fact most Of the towns
were many miles from d railroad and
the mail arrived by stage when wea-
Their conditions permitted. About 4
o'clock in the afternoon hundreds Of
farmers On their way home from the
towns were caught in a storm that
blotted every landmark from view
and filled all trails and roads.
Many escaped and found shelter,
but the storm king claimed his toll
in nearly every community. Many of
the missing were not found until the
snow melted in the spring. Only those
who have experienced the fury of
these old time billiards. can realize
their terrible ferocity, and with the
march of civilization the climate
seems to- have changed SO that the
later arrivals have not been called
upon to face the winter dangers of
the SOS.

BISMARCK HIGH
Wins ANOTHER
Dickinson Proves a Worthy Foe
But Accepts the Inevitable;
Score 20 to Is.

D%ickinson's high school basketball
tossers died game last night, but they
died just the same. That's the way a
"~thirty-third' degree fan who helped
boost the attendance at the game to
the 500 mark started off playing it all
over again." AT any rate, the rep
resentative Bismarck and Dickinson
high school basketball teams staged
the best and hardest fought game of
the season here last night with Bis
marck a winner by a col of 20 to
Is. The result gives Bismarck the
edge over ali competition for the dis.
trict championship this year. To date
the team has played 5 championship
games and has yet to suffer defeat.
The best showing by way OF the op-
p0nents against the Capital City five
was Is points as totaled by Dickinson
last night. Bismarck's grand total to
date is better than 200 points.
Contest Hard Fought.
From the opening to the closing
whistle, there was action and plenty
of it. A fair idea of the brand of
play served the hungry fans can be
obtained by a peep at the score of
>13 to 13, which marked the close of
the first period.
Bismarck's peerless aggregation
came back strong in the final period
and showed TO advantage both Of
fensively and ~defensively, cinching
the victory with an additional Is
counters in the last hall. while Dlckin-
son was Closely guarded and could
break through the winners defense
for but two more points. Minot high
will play it's return game on the Bis
marck floor next Friday night.
