POSTAL BANK ON TRIAL.

Postmaster Emmitt of Klamath Falls gives an encouraging account of the operations of the only postal sav- ings bank now open for business in the state of Oregon. He finds that in >t'ad of being a competitor of private l;rking institutions the government 6epositary brings out of hiding money that otherwise would have been hoard ad in secret. Quoting from the post masters statement
 From a personal acquaintance with most of these depositors I can frankly Nay thar not dollar has been drawn from any other local bank to place in tfs po9'a, bank The other hanks need ha,, no fear.
 The intention is to secure money and put IL in circulation that is in h.oing from other banks. and from TWO months experience it has proven wonderful success. One person ask '6 to deposit $20O and being Inform- cd that $l00 was the limit in one month he deposited sl0O and then walked 10 the money order window and purchased an order payable at this postofiice and to himself paying 90 cents fee therefor placing the same in his pocket rather than place it in a local bank at { per cent interest. Yet none of the local banks have ever been questioned as to stability This is the kind of money the postal bank Is after and gets.
 When all first. second and third class postoffices are constituted postal banks il will soon be found that mill lions of dollars will creep out of hId- ing and get into the circulating com merclsl channels conducted by and to the henetfi of the banking system of the country.
 The existence of secret hoards has always been a commercial fact of great importance. and when the prac- tice of hoarding becomes general be- cause of lack Of confidence 1t pro- dUces the condition described as tight m, ney." which in its extreme form becomes panic.

TIGERS RETURN
TO MONROE CAMP
Look Much Better Than When They
Left and How Their Appetites
Have Increased.
BY PAUL HALE eRusKe.

MONROE, La, March 21.-After a
pleasant and successful trip, the Tig
ers returned here today. enthusiastic
over the prospects OF returning north
TO open the baseball season next
month. The Tigerettes had already
arrived from their jaunt when the
veterans appeared and no time was
lost by their manager in getting them
out to the ball park where they were
put through strenuous practice.
The Tigers are a different looking
lot OF men from the bunch which left
Monroe nearly a week ago. They
have filled out the hollows left by the
strenuous sessions under the manage
ment OF Hughie Jennings, and have
worked of the distressing lamenesses
OF the early season, with most appar-
ent improvement.
| Most OF the athletes shuddered
over their return to Monroe and the
| bush-league eats, but the stay will be
| for three days only and should rather
! improve than inJure them.
The regular team made probably
the greatest known leap between
feasts and famine in the annals of
baseball when they left Monroe and
pulled into New Orleans. They fell
on that Creole grub like SO many
famished savages. The restaurants
along the line OF New Orleans famous
row, were played at an average of
! five times day, and the mems spirits
went up in proportion.
In New Orleans, Manager Jennings
broke a custom OF years in making no
American or dining plan arrange
ments but giving the players SO a
day and turning them loose. II was
enough TO make strong man weep
to see the way those Tigers laid out
their 50 per Oysters from ten TO
twenty-five cents a dozen, according
TO size. Real fresh eggs in 81 fancy
kinds of ways, Steaks Chops.
Salads. Sauces.
No Tiger is known to have eaten
twice at the same place and very few
bothered around the st. Charles at
meal times.
This sudden transition after the
Monroe experience might have been
damaging but for the long spell OF
lean days which had preceded. AS 1t
was. II proved Just what the team
wanted and, IN the second game OF
the New Orleans series. the Tigers for
the fest time all year. looked like
real, genuine, bigleague ball club.
