djutant General Stewart
ind General Gobin Pay
High Compliment to Guard
Adjutant General Thomas J. Stew
t, tVi his report on the work of the
vision, paid this compliment to the
inters and men of the National
I'ard of Pennsylvania:
"To call men away from their var-
I professions, businesses and em
jyment, without warping or an op
rtunity to make arrangement for so
olonged an absence, required a
eat sacrifice on the part of many
leers and men, yet this sacrifice was
liingly made, and the people of the
immonwealth are under lasting ob
:ations to the National Guard of
innsylvania, for the restoration of
ace and order, the emphasized su
emacy of law, and security and
otection of life and property. No
jops in war or out of war ever per
rmed their duty better. Nor was
ity ever more exacting. It required
6 keenest judgment, the highest
nception of duty, and the best
alities of citizenship."
General Gobin's Commendation
Brigadier General J. P. S. Gobin,
10 was in direct command of the
jops during the three months' serv
?, from July 30 to October 31, in
s report on the work of the ol
ers and men of the National Guard
Pennsylvania, said:
"I can only commend, in general
rms, the soldierly conduct of the
leers arid men of this command
iring its entire term of service,
ley maintained the dignity of the
immonwealth and their reputation
soldiers to a most satisfactory de
ee. Paying no attention to threats
d criticisms, they obeyed orders,
d the result was satisfactory in
ery phase and entitles them to the
mmendation of all order-loving
izens. Not a single serious case
infraction of rules, or violation of
ity was reported. Amid the many
rious problems they were required
face, I cannot but regard their con
ict as most exemplary."

Companies D and I were called dut
out 2 o'clock in the morning of
ly 31. 1902, and left Harrisburg at
o'clock over the Philadelphia and

the morning. Details were imme
itely sent to different parts of the
y, where the most disorder had
isted. After the excitement had
nmered down and the town became

THURSDAY EVENING,
ball field owned by the Columbia
Brewing Company, on top of a hill
called "Indian Ridge," at an eleva
tion of about 400 feet above the city
of Shenandoah and more than 1,700
feet above sea level. High winds pre
vailed during the entire time the
troops were in this camp and several
very severe storms occurred, playing
havoc with the ropes and canvas of
the tents. The camp was located im
mediately over the workings of the
Indian Ridge colliery and after some
of the heavy rainstorms great fissures
were opened in the company streets,
between and under the tents and at
points all over the camp ground.
These openings were several hundred
feet deep and were very hard to
close, although efforts were made to
do so.
Company D remained on duty at
Shenandoah for fifty-two days, doing
provost duty in the town and taking
part with the regiment almost every
day in evening parade in front of the
Ferguson House, (brigade headquar
ters) in the main street of Shenan
doah. This ceremony involved a
march of about a mile each way from
camp to town and tho parade took
place usually about 5 o'clock each
evening.
Several hikes were made by the
two companies in cases of disturb
ance and for the protection of coal
operations and railroad trains, the
most important of which was that to
Mahanoy City, where the strikers
sought to prevent the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad Company from
moving a train of loaded coal cars
away from a colliery of the Philadel
phia and Reading Coal and Iron
Company. Hatters looked serious for
a time, as the mob attempted to stone
Captain L. V. Rausch, quartermaster
of the Eighth Regiment, whose homo
was in Mahanoy City and who per
sonally knew many of the strikers.
But the cool-headed work of Colonel
Theodore Hoffman, who also lived in
the coal region and knew how to han
dle the unruly element, soon restored
order and the train was pulled out
amid many threats of the mob.
During the exciting period, the men
were deployed along the railroad
tracks at the station, with bayonets
fixed and the magazines of the Ivrag-
Jorgensens filled with cartridges. But
even in this critical situation, order
was restored without firing a shot.
Other hikes were made from the
Shenandoah camp to Gilberton,
Frackville and other small towns
nearby, where trifling disorders were
reported. On one occasion threats
were made that the mob of strikers
were coming out to drive the troops
away from the region, but they evi
dently thought better of it and never
came for that purpose. N *
One night somebody stoned the
sentry just at the edge of the hill
near the camp, striking his rifle with
a rock. The sentinel on the next
post fired at the intruder and called
the guard. It required but a few min
utes for the entire regiment to re
spond to the call to arms and a line
of skirmishers was deployed around
the camp. Tl)ey then marched through
the brush on the hillside down to the
road leading into the city, driving the
stone-throwers ahead of them. Two
members of Co. D, on an outpost, cap
tured two men running toward the
town and they were promptly placed
in the guardhouse.
"While the company was on provost
duty in town several of the leaders
in the riot of July 30 were arrested
and a detail of the company guarded
them during the hearing and escorted
them to the railroad station when
they wore sent to the Pottsville jail,
rt had been rumored that the mob
would take the prisoners from the
civil authorities, but the presence of
troops prevented any action by the
strikers.
One evening about 9 o'clock an at
tempt was made to burn a washery
connected with the Shenandoah City
colliery and several companies of the
regiment were ordered out, including
D and I. A skirmish line was formed
to surround the washery and try to
capture the incendiaries. Deploy
ment was made on one side of the
racetrack surrounding the camp of
the Governor's Troop, and the men
wore mrirchcd over the edge and down
the steep hillside, covered with rock
and coal dirt. After slipping and
sliding for several hundred feet, the
line reached the botoiri of the hill.X
and found that the lire had been ex-
tlnguished and no sign of firebugs.
Moved to Duryea
As the trouble in the Lackawanna
Valley became more serious, Company
D, with two battalions of the regi
bent, was moved to Duryea, Luzerne
county, on September 20. Camp at
Shenandoah was broken during a
downpour of rain. The canvas and
all camp equipage was thoroughly
soaked and muddy, making it heavy
and hard to handle. The clothing of
the men was also wet, making a very
disagreeable two days during the
breaking of one camp and erect,
ing of another. The troops entrained
about 1 o'clock p. m.. and went over
the Lehigh Valley railroad, arriving
at Duryea about 7 o'clock in the
evening, too late to pitch tents in
that kind of weather. The company
was quartered for the night In an old
empty company storehouse, which
did not afford much protection on ac
count of the leaky condition of the
roof. The men would find a dry place
to lie down, but in a short time water
would run under and around them
and there was not much sleeping done
that night. The men were anxious to
get into their comfortable tents, but
the rain continued all night and did
not cease sufficiently to start work
until after 9 o'clock in the morning.
It was a big job to get the canvas
and supplies out of the cars and the
camp erected, but it was finally ac
complished.
The most difficult part of work of
this kind and that which gave tho
most annoyance to all was the prepa
ration of the commissary. With wet
wood and watersoaked ground, the
cooks had troubles of their own, but
as soon as that branch of the outfit
got working right, everybody was
happy.
Duryea was then a town of about
1,500 inhabitants, three-fourths of
whom were foreigners of a quarrel
some and disorderly type, many crim
inals making their homes there. Ow
ing to its bad reputation the town
was nick-named "Murder Town."
The laws were disregarded by almost
everybody in the neighborhood. Dur
ing the presence of troops at this
point the officers of the regiment had
the satisfaction of breaking up and
scattering a bad crowd called the
"Willie Gang" and putting the leader
in jail. Very soon the men of the
regiment and the better element of
the mine workers were on good terms
and there was no difficulty in main
taining order after the first few days.

MILK INSPECTION
DECREASES DEATHS
Vigorous Fight Against Bad Pro
duct Resulting in Great Good
to the City
Milk Inspection and the raising of
standards of milk production in the
city has decreased the percentage of
deaths among infants from disease
due to bad milk by 100 per cent, since
1911.
In 1913 there were 21 deaths among
infants under 2 years from gastro in
testinal disorders directly due to bad
milk. This is 10.8 per cent, of the
total number of Infants who died dur
ing the year. The record for this year
is remarkably low. Last year there
were 31 deathß from Intestinal disor
ders out of 207 deaths of children
under 5. This means that IB per cent,
of the deaths among children are due
to bad milk supply. For the year
preceding, when the milk inspection
had hardly begun to be effective, the
percentage of infant deaths was 22.5
per cent. *
The death rate in these two years
of infants from this preventable cause
has dropped from 22.5 per cent, to
10.8 per cent., practically 120 percent,
decrease in the death rate.
Dr. Henry R. Douglas, who took
charge of the department a year and
a half ago. Is now reaping the results
of his educational campaigns and his
vigorous tight against bad milk. Dur
ing the past year the milk itself has
shown the result. Of the 1,038 sam
ples examined 707 were below the
winter standard of 500,000 bacteria
per cubic centimeter. Of this number
591 samples, or 57 per cent, of the
whole number, were under 250,000
bacteria, and 2 73, or 26 per cent.,
were under 50.000.
Dr Douglas in his report advises
that the best protection against bad
milk would be the labeling of all milk
with the rating given the producer by
the department. Thus detective duty
and inspections would not be so much
needed and the bad producer would
be eliminated.

venate even the worst complexion, it
is smeared on like cold cream before
retiring and removed mornings with
warm water. The mercolized wax

If the skin be wrinkled or creased,
