casion the call came out of a clear
sky and nobody was prepared. The
officers of the troop and the first
sergeant and other noncommissionad
officers were up the entire night. The
telephone telegraph, police force
and spcial messengers were used in
gathering in the members of the
troop from a radius of about nine
miles. The result was that at s
o'clock in the morning the troop was
reported ready at it's armory in the
Kelker street markethouse, mounted.
And this fact was specially mention
ed by Brigadier General Goblin in
general Third Brigade orders.
THE next call was for the Latimer
and Ha2elton riots, when the troop
again responded speedy and per-
formed it's duty we'll.
After the war, the troop was call
ed out twice to the anthracite coal
regions. These calls were in 1900
and 1902. In the last service the
troop was on duty for ninety-four
days which is believed to have been
the limit for such service by the Ma
tional Guard.

WEST SHORE NEWS
ON
TROLLEY FARES
West Shore Company Pre-
sents Reason For Increase
to Firemen Officials

Lenoyne, July ga conference
of Valley Railways Company off,
cials and President j. Fred Hummel
and L. l.. Hammacker, of the West
Snore FirenIcn's Union. held in the
offices of the company. resulted in a
clearer understanding between union
officers and officials of the company
according to a fireman to-day.
At a recent meeting of the union
committee was appointed to ask
for a conference with company off,
cials and ascertain, If possible, why
an increase in the fares on the Val
ley Railways lines was necessary.
This conference was arranged by
President Hummel and c. H. Bishop,
president of the company.
According to "a member of the
union committee. company officials
gave obvious reasons why an in
crease in fares was necessary and
that a report of this nature will be
made to members of the union at its
next meeting.
c'his committeeman was of the
opinion that if an increase was nee
essary it should not be an additional
two cents.
Although the procedure of the
union has not been announced, it is
likely that the committee will rec
ommend that efforts be made to pro-
hibit an increase of more than one
cent; Lemoyne and Wormleysburg
have the benefit of a five-cent fare
and that the transfer zone be ex-
tended
