SALVATION ARMY
CAPTAIN LEAVES
FOR BIGGER JOB
Captain James Murphy to Have
Charge of Sioux Falls, s. D.,
Works. Bandman
TO BE SUCCEEDED
BY MINNEAPOLIS MAN

Capt. James Murphy of the Saliva
ton Army and his family will leave
tomorrow for Duluth, Mimi, to spend
ten days with his aprents and thence
to Sioux Falls, S. D., where they will
make their new home.
Captain Murphy came to Bismarck
a year ago and, it is believed, has
done more in Salvation Army work
here than any other officer this post
has ever had. He will be succeeded
by Captain Ernest Marshall ofTMin
neapolis, son of Colonel Marshall OF
the Salvation Army.
Captain Murphy is the man who
organized the Salvation Army band
in Superior, Wis, now one Of the larg.
est and best bands in that whole sec.
ton Of the country. Later, in Mime
apolis, he put the band on its feet,
after it had repeatedly failed, and
made it permanent institution.
When he came to Bismarck there was
no Army band. The outlook was dis
couraging, because not member
could blow a horn and very few could
tell one note from another. Now
Bismarck has Perhaps the best Saliva
ton Army band III the state, if not
the Northwest. 1t plays regularly Qp
the strestSa ntar{hes to ma rtiaL tuGek.
in parades and often appears in con-
certs. and entertainments. Its. ~p%oe..
ress in less than year is little short
of remarkable. The horns were pur.
chased soon after Captain Murphy
came here with money raised through
the generosity of Bismarck business
men.
In sending Captain Murphy to
South Dakota, the commissioner at
Chicago, who personally gave the or
der, said that he did so because Sioux
Falls needed Murphy. The work
there is bigger, and the need greater
than here. The appointment is in the
way of a promotion.
A musical entertainment and fare
we'll reception will be given this even
ing at the Army hall on Main street
for Captain and Mrs. Murphy and
their two children. The family came
here from Devils Lake in July, 1916.
Captain Murphy ID quiet, unassum.
ing man, about 95, but, as one of the
members pvt It today, he gets there"
He has been in Salvation Army work
since he was 3 years old and has
been band director for many years.
The man who will take his place Is
a cornetist OF ability and it is hoped
he will continue the great work that
has been started by Captain Murphy.
