..rnyrsDAY EVENING. MAY 16 1894.
The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1894-07-11
Reflections of Camp Life at Punx'y.

On Friday, June %, 1894, the Sixteenth
Regiment arrived at Punxsutawney,
Jefferson county, and were marched to
the scene of rioting at Walston. KNAPP
sacks were unslung and loaded on wag-
ons making the three miles march COM
paratively easy for the troops. On arriv-
ing at the mines, not an insurgent Italian
could be found. The day was spent on
the hillside overlooking the mines and
taste of the hardships of military life
was experienced, as the sun beat down
on the unsheltered lines in ali its inten-
sity. At about four o'clock, Colonel w.
j. Hulings detailed Lieutenant d. +. A.
Wheelock of Warren, to lay out camp.
After some delay the construction was
begun and in remarkably short order
the camp, named for the late Major w. S.
Horton, overlooked the small mining
town of Walston. The hungry soldiers
in looking for a place TO lunch were con-
fronted by the following sign on a small
building; Fortuna Alutami Invidia
invidia Crepa. Guiseppi Farri Banchiere
Gambia Valute Spedisce Denaro in
tutti Gil Office Post. Ali D'Italia Big
liette Di Passaggis." which, after inves-
tigation, was found TO be grocer's sign.
The proprietor of the store was found to
be villianous looking Dago, who ran,
in connection with his grocery business,
Post Office and General Intelligence
Bureau.
The Sheridan troop from Tyrone, Pa,
under command of Captain Jones, con-
sisting of some fifty-six men, occupied a
position somewhat above the Infantry,
and are certainly a fine body. Their
horses and equipments being of the best.
Camp life was notwithstanding the
brisk drills and heavy guard duty, each
guard had orders to halt every one cross
ing the guard-line, and if not obeyed to
fire. All carried loaded pieces. The OBJ
ject being more to keep the boys in camp
than to prevent invasion. Happily these
orders were changed last Friday; the
reason was probably due to an accident
which occurred the previous night. Ma
jor Ray on returning to camp late, was
halted by guard and when advancing
to give the countersign a gun was dis
charged in the guard house near by.
The Major supposed he had been shot al
by the guard and called for the same 10
be arrested. The guard knew his duty
and held the Major at a charge bayonet
till the proper ofheer arrived when an
explanation made matters right.
On Monday, June 25, the Pinkerton
Detectives, or alleged Coal and Iron
Follcei on guard over the mines near the
! tipple of mine No. 2, were attacked by
Italian women, the men taking no part
except TO cheer their excited partners in
life TO greater effort. The militia was or.
dered TO the rescue. Colonel Hulings
The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1894-07-11

found the Pinkert lns pale and flunking,
and must soon have been overcome by
the hardy miners wives. A rock thrown
by grey haired daughter of Italy came
so close TO the Colonel's head that he or
dered Co. /, of Warren, to charge the
mob. The boys made short work of this
part The cowardly miners who had
kept their distance could now only be
traced by the dust caused by their retreat,
while their wives and daughters fell back
without resistance and dispersed. Dur
ing the first few days in camp, three cam
mons were captured by the guards. They
consisted of railroad ties bored out and
three inch casing driven in the holes.
They were loaded with powder and rail-
road spikes; one had been fired and had
blewn up; IL had been aimed at a stump
and demoralized that mark frightfully.
Reports that the strike was settled
reached camp almost hourly, but the
Homestead veterans took no stock in
this talk. Friday night orders were giv~
en- to reduce the companies TO thirty men,
and Saturday morning the miners were
ready TO go to work, a settlement having
been made, and the scale being raised to
forty cents per car, also giving the min
ers credit for dead work (slate and re-
fuse taken from the mine). This raise is
certainly deserved by the miners. Most
of the boys had chance to visit the
mines. The writer enjoyed a Tip in
mine No. 2, going into the slope for
distance of two miles, visiting the
pumps which keep the mines clear of
water, and lodging through so many
passages and chambers, that one could
but reatize, had the guide been less ex-
perienced, the party must have been
lost; as il was he seemed puzzled and
several times had to retrace his steps,
but soon found the right passage. The
Fifth regiment is encamped about three
miles from Camp Horton and little
could be learned by the writer of them.
Their parade ground is visible, however,
and judging from the soldiers nearly al
ways to be seen on it, one might think
the officers were giving it to the boys
pretty warm. Sunday, July /, orders
were received to break camp. Monday
morning, Colonel Hulings addressed the
boys at Dress Parade, thanking them for
their obedience to orders, the guard hav-
ing been reduced 70 two men since Fri
day and no ono had been absent from
roll call "a thing" Col. II. went on to
say, that had never happened before in
the history of the militia" A letter from
Governor Pattison was also read which
thanked the Sixteenth Regiment for
their good behavior, etc. At about IL a.
m, Monday, July 2, all were on their
way home, the long march to Puuxsu-
tawney being avoided by procuring cars
at Walston.
A report circulated by some of the Of
ficers that the miners abandoned work
as soon as the militia left, is probably
without foundation, PRIVATE.
