TYPE OF MINER.
Several are ex-soldiers Of the British
army; there are troopers who have
fought the Boxers In China, the Beers
in South Africa, the Spaniards in Cuba,
the Moros in the Philippines. The men
are selected for courage, physical N
durance, military experience and per-
sonal decency and character.
Their uniform, from helmet to put
tee, Is a rusty black. Even the metal
pieces bearing the state coat Of arms,
the shoulder bars of the commissioned
officers and the stirrups are oxidized.
There is nothing to fash about them
until the blue ass spit fire. The troop
ers black overcoat makes him look al
most as much like a monk as a soldier.
A hickory riot stick, a As caliber car
bine and q 80 caliber revolver are his
arms. Their horses are not for show,
but for work, and are as versatile as
their riders in getting to and handling
all sorts of trouble. They can nudge
an unruly crowd on a city sidewalk
into its place, go down a mountain
trail at a gallop and are as nimble at
the turn as a polo pony. In case Il
trooper is surrounded a pressure Of the
knees brings into rapid fire action the
horses steel shod hoofs, and every
vicious kick will account for a man.
Eight men of the Pennsylvania
mounted constabulary have been kill.
ed in the performance of duty.

For days the city had watched its
force Of 5000 policemen attempt to
guard property and human life itself
and had seen the bluecoats fail and BE-
come demoralized. The state fencibles,
the 'crack" militia organization, was
marched out and stood almost unreSist-

and mobbed strike breakers and finally
took away the guns of the feDcib'es
Then 16S men in rusty black uniforms

rounds Of rifle fire as m influence for
the restoration of order. The con

those were merely a warning.
Other exploits might be mentioned,
as, for instance, the work of the con
stabulary in the car strike In Chester
and the stand Of the five men against
5000 at McKees Rocks. where two of
the FIVE were killed and the other three
finched not at all, but broke the mob.
The force was organized In 1906
and was largely the creation Of Cover

troops stationed at Reading, Wilkes

barracks the routes in the districts. In

Is redistricted and stationed SO as to

and a call for help from a sheriff gets

Mounted Constabulary Will Be

RN the event of q general strike
In the anthracite fields Pennsyl-
vania will rely chiefly upon her
mounted constabulary to keep
the peace. The constabulary is a fac
tor which did not enter into the strike
Of 1902. The force numbers only some
200 and would be pitted against the
1900 miners whom a protracted
strike would call out. However, one
trooper is a match for 100 rioters, and
the constabulary has broken every
strike since its organization.
