Although the credit channels

be utilized mostly by home owners,
the benefits Of this all-important
piece Of legislation are by no means

The same sources that supply the

Owners Of business properties who
undertake improvements at this time

President, and Henry Clay, when he
was Secretary of State In the admin
istration Of John Quincy Adams.
Thereafter it was the Washington
Club, most exclusive and prominent
of mems clubs here, and in front Of
its doors occurred that terrific en-
counter between Sickles and Key.
Then Seward took up residence
there. He lived in the house through
his term of office, and on April Is Of
the year Lincoln was killed the Secre-
tary of State lay in bed seriously in
jured from a fall out Of his buggy.
Suddenly man who pretended to
bring medicine for the Ill man ap-
peared at the door, demanding to see
Seward. When the audience was re-
fused, he pushed past the door,
clubbing with his pistol, which was
broken by the blows he struck at
those who attempted to halt him. He
gained Stewards room and stabbed
him several times, then escaped.
Later the would-be assassin was cap
tured, and linked to the same plot
which had resulted fatally for the
President.
Suburban Type Estate.
The Massachusetts avenue Blaine
house, which runs back as far as p
street, was built by order of the Sec
retary of State. In Civil War days
land cost cents a square foot in
that district, a rural price, and early
pictures of the place indicate it was
almost a suburban type estate. Today
land in the same area is evaluated at
$40 a square foot, and one of the
busiest shopping sections Of the city
is near at hand.
The Massachusetts avenue house
was leased to Levi Letter Of Chicago
in 1883 at $11 900 year, the highest
rent ever heard of in Washington up
to that time. Letter built his own
Dupont Circle home in 1891, and
thereafter the Blaine house was sold
to the Westinghouse family Of Pitts
burgh. They resided In it for many
years.

TINE name of James G. Blaine,
Secretary of State in the Gar
field administration, is associ-
Il ated with two of the Capitals
most interesting homes. One
is the mansion built on historic
Lafayette Square by Commodore John
Rodgers in 1881, later involved in
ante and post bellrun history. and
after that his home for some time.
The other is the great house on
Massachusetts, avenue at Twentieth
street, which Blaine built in the days
when the price of $4,000 was con-
sidered a staggering sum for this most
enormous of residences. He deserted
the Lafayette Square house to move
into this one in 1881.
Blaine was the third Secretary of
State to reside in the old Rodgers
place, which occupied the site of the
Belasco Theater, and its associations
with one of the predecessors are the
most sensational in all its history.
That man was william H. Seward,
Secretary of State in the Lincoln
cabinet, who was attacked by an
assassin the same night Lincoln was
murdered at Ford's Theater, April
IA, 1865.

Back TO Twin Cities
Back to the Twin Cities from
New Orleans, Noodle became
connected with the st. Paul Daily
News. For the News he covered
the trial Of A. G. Townley on a
charge of sedition.
Five North Dakota counties
have seen Noodle In action as q
newspaperman.
In 1876 he purchased the Rich
land County Farmer 1t Wahp,ton
which he sold the next year to Z.
D. Lum. Thereafter Noodle
went to California. and was con-
nected for q time with the San
Francisco Examiner and the
Oakland Times.
In 1928, returning to North Da-
kota, Noodle bought the Rem
Vile County Farmer ut Mohall.
He edited that weekly for a year
and sold 1t to Ed Sullivan. the
present owner and editor.
From Mohall Noodle went to
Minneapolis again and for two
years was editorial writer for the
Minneapolis Tribune. The story
has come back to North Dakota
that. when Noodle sought con-
nection with the Tribune. he made
the statement that he could write
an editorial on any subject in
five minutes.
Three years ago this week
Noodle became editor and part
owner Of the Williston Herald,
the post which he now holds.
Never until now has Noodle
sought an elective office. and un-
til 1888. when he was appointed
a member Of the public works ad-
visory board, he had never held q

Minot, N. D., April 5.-(R-
From printers apprentice to edi-
tortal writer for big city papers,
Thomas Noodle Of Williston, the
choice Of North Dakota Democrats
as q candidate for governor, IN 10
years has run the gamut Of news
paper experience-and has done a
little ra1lroading besides.
Noodles first newspaper job Is
printers apprentice was in the
old Wadena Pioneer, Of Wadena,
Mimi, Of which G. G. Eastman
was editor. Noodle was 16 then.
He is Sc now.
That was an unfortunate time
for q young man to seek employ
ment Is q printer. The linotype
was coming into general use and,
with thousands Of experienced
men out Of jobs, 1t was hard for
youth to forge ahead. SO Noodle
deserted printing for a fling at
railroading. He worked as train
man on the Northern Pacific in
the second district Of the Minne-
sofa division from Staples to
Fargo. Then he got tired OF it
and took leave Of absence.
Later, however, he worked for
the Great Northern as switchman
and brakeman. As a brakeman
his career ended suddenly. Noodle
recalled Thursday that he was
fired about so hours after he went
on the Job. 1t was at Granite
Falls, MINI. The reason: He
threw switch the wrong way,
and tied up railroad traffic for
hours.
Worked On Tribune
Coming to North Dakota SO
years ago, Noodle worked as a
printer at Bismarck, and there
In 1898 became member Of the:
Typographical Union. There.
too. he did his first reportorial
work on the Bismarck Tribune
under Jimmie Foley, North Da-
kota poet. now q resident Of
Pasadena. CAL, and then city edi-
tor Of the Bismarck paper.
Noodle became q fast friend Of
Foley. and so remains. He re-
calls hours he spent with Foley
after 80" when F'oleys thoughts
would turn from newswriting to
versifying.
Once Noodle was q linotype
operator on the Minot Daily Re-
porter, and for brief period al
80 he was city editor Of the Re-
porter, while Sam Clark was the
editor. He landed the city editors
post here, it Is recalled, by telling
Clark that during certain hours
Of the day he would furnish a
good, live, local story every five
minutes. That was In 1910.
Leaving Minot, Noodle joined
the reportorial staff of the Du-
luth News-Tribune. Before he
quit that paper he had become
. political writer. Then followed
eight years spent on the Minne-
Apolis News.
