NEW RINGGOLD.
Something About One of Schuyl-
kills Pretty Hamlets.

New Ringgold is not only one of the
prettiest, but is also one of the most enter
prising little towns of Schuylkill county.
1t is a railroaders town and many of the
knights of the Road" have their homes
there. 1t is not a business centre, the peo-
pie mainly depending upon farming as a
means of support, and it has two stores,
one shoemaker's shop, one blacksmith shcp
and two hotels but the basis of its claim to
enterprise is shoe factory, which gives
employment to a number of hands and is
doing good business. The streets of the
place are kept nice and clean and the
houses have the appearance of freshly
painted structures. The p. s. r. dep t is
an object of admiration 1t is q neat
structure, surrounded by sodded grounds
studded here and there with beds Of
flowers The depot is in charge of John
f. Reeser formerly of Tamaqua. He has
been in charge of it for the past twenty
five years. He first went into the employ
of the Little Schuyll1ill Navigation Com
pany. He has raised large family and
three Of his sons are filing first class posi-
tions in different parts of the state. Mr..
Reeser isa member of Camp 100, Sons of
America, (the Roundheads, as they call
them). The camp has a handsomely and
very comfortably furnished hall. Among
the decorations on the walls is a framed
copy Of the EVENING HERALD of years
ago, giving the particulars of the murder
of Policeman Yost, of Tamaqua at the
tirae of his death and formerly resident
of New Ringgold. The paper is looked
upon as the camps most valuable relic and
they would not part with it at any price.
The camp is in fl fourishng condition.

Great Excitement Over the Breaking of
the Florida Deadlock.
TALLAHASSEE, Fla, May s7.--The mo-
tion in the Democratic Senatorial caucus
to adjourn without day was carried early
in the morning, after an exciting all
night debate
The anti-Call men played their last
card few hours later, leaving the city
in body, so that they thought no quo
rum would be present and a joinG session
would be rendered impossible.
The president of the Senate issued or
ders to the Sergeant-at- Arms, and, with
a posse, this officer started out on the
track Of the filibusters.
At 1880 all the members of the two
Houses present in the city assembled in
the hall. A roll-call showed "a present,
which was a quorum.
Several anti-Calls were present, but
they refused to answer to their names
and appealed from the decision of the
chair
Voting began at once for United
States Senator. Fifty-one votes were cast
for Wilkinson Call and one for Mays
The president then declared Call re-
elected for the six years, amid tumultu-
GUS applause, members cheering and
yelling their joy over the breaking of the
deadlock. Call made a brief address.

POSTAL SAVINGS BANKS,


A Democratic contemporary says
Postmaster General Wanamaker wants
postal savings banks, and as it is gen.
orally conceded that Mr.. Wanamaker
is one of the best postmaster generals
Dthat t. country has ever had, his en-
thusiasn on the subject is worthy of
careful attention. Not only is he a
sound financier, an excellent manager
and level-headed business man, but
he has in his various walks in life
been brought into such close contact
with the working people that he is
fully competent to judge of their need
of savings banks. In short he is in
a position to both judge of the advau-
tage to the government and to the peo-
pie of such institutions, and his recent
pamphlet on the subject is a strong
declaration of his belief in their eif1-
cacy.
1t seems strange, indeed, in the
light of Mr.. Wanamaker's revelations
that the United States has been so
long in coming to consideration of
the postal savings matter. In every
European nation save Germany such
n institutions have been long in exist
ence And even Canada and Cape
Colony have gotten considerably
ahead of us in the matter. AT the
close of last year there were 1858 port
Office banks in Great Britain, with de-
posits amounting to 1906, sos, 149; that
is one depositor to every eight inhab-
itants with an average per capita bal
ance of $GS18. The interest credited
to those in one year was over $700,000
Frances postal banks have been in
existence for less than two years, yet
there are already over a million de-
positors. Austria has still later adopt
ed the savings policy and with scarce
ly less success. There is nearly $780,
100000 deposited in the postal banks
of all the nations that have adopted
the plan, and this fact alone should go
long way to recommend the move
ment to our own authorities. When
scheme of several years. experience
Gais popular, it is pretty sure to have an
kslerent cause for its popularity. If

such varying governments, that should

serve as an earnest of its success under
the best government of all.
The bureau drawer and old stocking
method of saving money is about
played out. The fad OF accumulating
dimes in pocket contrivance that
will not give up it's shining store until
$5 has been garnered in will very soon
go the way of all fads. None but the
large cities have banks wherein the
workingman, the hired girl and the
school boy may drop an occasional
nickel or lay by quarter for rainy
day. There is a crying need of some
such institution in every populous
centre. Men and women and child
ren, too, need to be encouraged to
store up their odds and ends of coin in
preference to spending it thoughtlessly
for what satisfieth not. School saw
ings do not fill the bill. Private en-
terprises such as are really helpful and
trustworthy are aptto be few and far
between. Unless q wholesale move
ment, such as Mr.. Wanamaker pro-
poses, be set on foot, many communi-
ties will never have chance to learn
this sort of economy.
If the nation should grant facilities
to everybody to save,it would accumu-
late a great fund toward paying of
the national debt. According to the
suggestions of the postmaster general,
it could be placed in national banks
and be made preferred claim on these
banks. 1t would be profiting the pee
pie who loaned the money and profit
ing the government that borrowed it..
1t would appear to us that Mr.. Wana-
maker knows just what he is talking
about. 1t would be well for Congress
to take him at his word.

Special to the HERALD.

MAHANoY CtTY, May PA desperate
fight between the canvasmen of Walace's
circus and a large crowd of boys and young
men of this ami other neghboripg places
took place her at late hour last night.
There was a regular blood-thirsty battle,
in which two men we're shot, one man had
his skull broken by thrown stone, and
several were otherwise injured.
A young man named Quinn, said to be-
long in Shenandoah, was shot twice and is
in precarious condition. His companion,
a young man named McCauley, residing
in this town, was also shot, but his injuries
are not SO serious.
"Jocko" Reese prominent member of
tho Citizens Fire Company of this town,
was also seriously injured. His skull was
fractured by stone supposed to have been
thrown by one of the csnvassmen.
Reese says he had nothing to do with the
ig bit and that he was standing some dis
tance away from the scene when struck.
So far as is known none of the circus
men were injured and none of them were
arrested.
The tents of Wallace's circus were
pitched on the base ball grounds, which
are surrounded by high beard fence.
During the afternoon ard evening consider
able bitter feeling was created between the
circus men and the town people, on ac-
count of gambling conducted in one OF the
tents. The rough element took advantage
of this feeling as an excuse for opening
hostilities against the circus people.
After the regular performance platform
was carried into one of thel rings for the
usual concert. As soon as it was laid down
a crowd OF toughs rushed from the seats
and took possession of it, dancing, jumping
and shouting like maniacs. The manage
ment decided to abandon the concert and
ordered the crowd off the grounds. AS
soon as the tents were cleared the canvass
men commenced taking down the tents
and at the same time the toughs stormed
the fence of the grounds with stones.
The canvassmen replied with stones and
sticks, and a hot battle was in progress,
Suddenly number of them appeared at
the gate of the ball grounds and warned
the toughs to desist, but the warning only
provoked fresh voley of stones.
Suddenly one of the canvasmen stepped
to the front with revolver in his hand and
commenced firing An eyewitness says
the man fred about ten shots. The shoot
ng dispersed the toughs and the ciycus
people were not molested again.
[The Quinn referred to in the above is
Patrick Quinn, about 18 years of age, and
residing on South Main street, this town.
A report received this afternoon slated that
