FRIDAY EVENING, » HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH JANUARY 23, 1914. Ninth Regiment, located in the busi ness section of the town. Patrols were sent out and outposts located at var ious points in the neighborhood. One night the company was called out at S o'clock, placed on a train and sent | to Austin Heights, where it was re | ported that the miners intended to I blow up a powder house and other I buildings at the colliery. Guards were placed on the locomotive on the j run to this place as the train crew I would not take the risk without pro ! tection. When the company arrived I at the colliery there was no sign of 1 disturbance, and after remaining there jail night the men were marched back | to camp at Duryea. During the month of October the ! weather was very cold and the men | had some difficulty in keeping warm. | Nearly every tent had an oil stove I and some were boarded up along the , sides, so that the occupants were fairly comfortable under adverse con ditions. There were several light I snows, one of them being about two | inches deep, but the men got through | without any trouble and in perfect j health. In fact, there was compara ! lively no sickness in the command | during the entire three months' serv ice. On October 30 the regiment was or dered to break camp and return home. The men of the company then completed a long tour of pleasant and enjoyable duty, and one filled with many incidents and experiences which will never be forgotten by them. The names of the officers and men who were on this tour of service are printed herewith and their pictures are contained in the small cut copy ing the large group of photographs in the company armory. Work and Location of Co. I in Strike Service of 1902 Company T was called out at the same time as was Company D about 2 o'clock on the morning of July 31, 1902, and left Harrisburg at the same time, reaching Shenandoah and going into camp simultaneously. Their work for the time Company D re mained in the Schuylkill county town was practically the same, consisting of patrolling, outpost and provost duty and guard detail work on various oc casions and at many places in the small towns and "patches" near Shenandoah. When Company D, with two battalions of the regiment went into Luzerne county on September 20, Company 1 remained at Shenandoah with the third battalion of the regi ment until the entire division of the National Guard was ordered into service on October 8, and a general move and relocation of troops was made. Then, after a total service of 70 days at Shenandoah, the third battalion joined the regiment at Dur yea and was encamped there eleven days, when it was moved to Parsons, Luzerne county, where it remained until the end of the tour of duty— eleven days'later. With the exception of the time spent at Shenandoah after Company D left for Duryea and the eleven days spent at Parsons, the work of Com pany X was almost the same as chron icled for the other command and its experience was practically the same, except that after the division of the regiment at Shenandoah in September i there was left a much smaller body i of men to do the work and it resulted I in more frequent details for patrol I and guard service. The company returned to Harris burg when tho order relieving the | regiment was issued on October 30, I leaving camp soon after noon and reaching home, after a tiresome train ride, about 9 o'clock that night. (To He Continued) Alderman Has Prayer Instead of Argument An alderman who isn't particular about sending cases to court and. reap ing big fees, but who has a few prayers in his office with prosecutor and defendants, and thus settles most of his cases out of court, will speak at next Sunday's "Pleasant Sunday Afternoon" of the Allison Hill Men's Christian Association. He is J. C. Newcomer, alderman of that part'of Wllliamsport known as Newberry, ; who is coining here with the party of half a dozen men who will tell Hjirris ; burg what an evangelistic campaign | by Dr. Henry W. Stough almost two years ago accomplished for Williams port in the way of permanent good. Sunday's meeting will'be held'in Lenney's Theater, 5 South Thirteenth street, at 3.45 o'clock, with the usual preliminary song service. Alderman Newcomer is merely one of the .party, which will be headed by Dr. John A. Campbell. Others are .William J. Dale, president of the Dayton Shoe ,Com i pany; the Kev. V. T. P. S. Wilson, head of the Williamsport City Mis- I sion; James Wilson, a railroad man and Sunday school worker, and Alva MeUger, a man of the type of James Wilson. The men are coining here at their own expense merely to tell ■ what's what in Williamsport. MARRIED OHIO GIRL Sunbury, Pa., Jan. 23. —Lester Hen ninger. an air inspector of the Penn sylvania Railroad here, went to Day ton, Ohio, where on Wednesday ho claimed as his bride Miss Martha Wilcke, a prominent young lady.

A Tonic For the Nsrves Nervous people who have not yet developed n disease that can be rec ognized and treated by (he medical profession have the greatest trouble in finding relief. Irritation, headache, sleeplessness, nervous dyspepsia, all these discomforts make life miserable but are endured rather than run a doc tor's bill without definite hope of re covery. Every such sufferer should know the danger of suoh a condition of the nervous system. Nervous debility and even paralysis may easily result if the tone of the nerves Is not restored. The one big fact that brings hope and relief .is that the nerves can be restored by building up the blood. It cannot be too often repeated that only through the blood can nourishment and medicine reach the nerves. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills make the blood rich and red and quickly restore vi tality and energy to a weak nervous system. A nervous person who gives these pills a trial is almost certain to see good results and. what Is more, the benefit will be lasting because the trouble is attacked at its root. Thin blood makes weak nerves. Building up the blood restores the nerve force. Get a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to-day and write the Dr. Wil liams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. V.. for a freevcopy of "Diseases of the Nervous System."—Advertisement. _ STORE OPENS Saturday Morning at 9 $ 12.98 Is the Price in |h& For Any of Our High Class Winter Suits For \Mebßl| Women and Misses Formerly $25.00, $30.00 and as High as $40.00 fl||j|»r This Means Your Unrestricted Choice V This is the lowest price named for these suits.
