Bismarck's Demons played heads
up football Saturday to defeat Will
liston's Coyotes l8 to 0.
Williston fought from the first
whistle to the last but were unable to
cope with the strong attack which Il
Demons unleashed shortly after the
opening kickoff. The Coyotes uncov-
, cred a speedy ball carrier in Moses,
who recled off n long run and near
w got away on several other Occa-
Sions.
O'Hare and j. Spriggs we're the big
cors in Bismarck's attack although
the entire team showed to better ad-
VANTAGE than In any previous game
this year.
The improvement Of Bismarck's line

! and power today.

The Magician line is particularly
strong. several blocked punts result
ing In Minot toucildowns.
Though Williston put up a good
game here Saturday as most Joe Cut
ting coached machines do. Bismarck
outfought and outplayed the Coyotes
in every branch of the game. The
Demons counted a dozen first downs
to for the visitors.
Miss One Touchdown
f. Spriggs. Bismarck's dusky back
field phantom, recled off two of Bis
marck's three ~touchdowns and would
have been credited with another had
he not stepped outside the playing
field.
It was Spriggs who made the most
spectacular play of the game. Late
In the fourth quarter he speared a
long forward pass and tipped through
the entire Williston defense for the
Demons last touchdown.
A strong wind hampercd punters
for both teams. but O'Hare demon
strated that he is a real triple
threat on any high-school gridiron.
Kicking with the wind his punts were
consistently good for more than sc
yards. On one occasion he stood on
his own lO-yard line and punted over
Williston's goal line.
Show Fine Coordination
Exclusive of individual play. the
Bismarck team showed fine coordina-
ton and demonstrated that the De-
mons have more than a few stars to
offer against the opposition they will
encounter this year.

scored proved their versatility

such desperate chance, by the hope that d.

would arrive at Ocean Island, some SO miles

expected to land no matter what miracle they
hoped for, they died, one and all, somewhere

Fascinated by threatening aspect of the
weather one evening in August, scanned the
sky. Its colors resembed those associated with
typhoons; overhead, dull and heavy gray;
below and extending almost to the horizon

beneath that lay copper to the dim line where

may be its salvation"
At II o'clock that night the blow struck U.S.
The building, it seemed, must go. The storm
raised a terrific noise. Not soul could sleep;
every one was on edge to feel the house demOl-
ished at any moment In their flimSy quarters
the crew thought that the end of everything
had come, and, abandoning heir huts, they
huddled under the lee of our veranda. In their
shacks they had been panic-stricken; now

At daybreak the wind still blew fiercely, driving
before it a hell of sand that penetrated into
all parts of the house; sand in our hair, ears
eyes, nostrils: sand everywhere; We breathed
it, swallowed it, gritted between our teeth.
Anxiety for the boat which Jorgenson and
generally used led me to suggest that we ven-

was all right. Out We sailed on the lee side of
the house: as we rounded the corner the wind
flung us back. To see was impossible; though
the time was forenoon, dun night enveloped
the world, while rain and furious sand stung
our faces like needles. We dashed on our cloth
ing to prevent it being literally blown from
our bodies; then We made another essay; yet
still we could not stand against the storm, even
by crouching almost to the ground and at
length we crawled.

granite building situated at the southwest cor
ner Of New Jersey avenue and street, lately
occupied by the Bureau of the Public Health.
Though erected quite a while ago, yet the
Butler house would not be classed as a land
mark, and even its historic value hinges upon
the fact of its having been built by Gen. Butler,
and that for a while, in 1881, 1t served as the
Executive Mansion, as had the old hotel at the
south side of the block 30 years before.
After the death Of President Garfield, at
ElberOn, just 48 years ago the 10th of this
month, Chester Alan Arthur took the oath of
office as President of the United States in New
York City and accompanied to Washington the
funeral party, which arrived here two days
later. President Arthur then took up his resi-
dence in the Butler mansion, occupied at the
time by Senator John P. Jones of Nevada and
remained there until the following December z,
when he removed to the White House.
Gen Benjamin F.. Butler, or "Spoony' Butler,
as the South delighted to call this able soldier
and legislator, was also noted for his shrewd-
ness in business way, and the story is told
that when he was about to ship the granite
for the Butler house from the quarrieS of Mas
SachusettS which State he represented In the
House, he learned that some Government YES.
sells were to leave Boston for Washington in
ballast. 1t did not take him long to agree
to furnish the ballast free and the granite was
