absorbed by the Commercial National
bank in 1907. The Utah National bank
became a member of the clearing house

National Bank Of the Republic. There
was no change in the number of banks

1910, although the former institution
had applied for membership several
months before.

Interior fixtures which have been de-
signed by Taussig & Flesh OF New
York, the greatest designers Of depart
ment store fixtures in the country, will
be the finest and most modern obts in
able. Among other prominent features
will be the tea room. enormous soda
fountain, grocery department and other
ideas which are found in the big depart
ment stores OF the east. The building
win be equipped with a sprinkIing sys-
tenn for fire protection.
Arnold w. Drummer, the architect was
engaged by the firm to design the build
ing on account Of his especial knowledge
of the designing of department stores,
and the attention which he has given to
carrying out schemes OF metropolitan
decoration and civic Improvement
Among the big contracts carried out by
Mr.. Drummer Is the civic Improvement
scheme being put into force in the city
Of Cleveland With the advantages Of
an experienced architect behind them
the company feels assured Of being pro-
vided with a store which shall COM
pare well in equipment with one OF the
finest of the kind In the country.

turn them to the clerks from the other
institutions. Each clerk has a total of
his checks against each Of the other in
situations. He learns at the clearing
house the totals OF each banks checks
against his own institution, and strikes
a balance. This balance Of credit or
debit against the clearing house is taken
down by the manager and a balance
struck. All balances remaining unsatis-
fed as between any institution and the
clearing house is then paid in a clear
ing house certificate.
This certificate is simply an order Of
the clearing house association to pay
the other institution the amount of the
credit balance. In practice this is sell
dom done, however, the institutions pre-
ferring to wait for time until debit
balances the credit. II is noteworthy
that one Of the strongest and most con-
servative institutions in the city, the
Deseret National bank, cashes its clear
ing house checks at once, and never
carries over its balances from day to
day. In order to insure promptness at
the clearing house, system Of fines is
imposed for hardness and for errors.
These are generally paid by the bank,
since II is not considered the clerk
fault, as he is generally rushed The
percentages OF errors, however, is very
small, and surprisingly small In con-
sideration Of the rapidity of the trans
actions carried on.
It is interesting to know that the sys-
tenn carried on here differs only in some
slight details from that in vogue in
other cities. In New York the clerks
pay off the balances from funds kept IN
safety deposit vaults belonging to the
clearing house association. These funds
are seldom taken away, since the bal
ances change from day to day. and the
same amount Of cash in the aggregate
suff1ces to pay Off transactions for many
months. often for years. This process
resembles taking money from one
pocket and putting it into another, and
the system Of clearing house certificates
used in Salt Lake is considered much
more convenient. especially for condi-
tons here. In some cities of the coun-
try special rooms are used for the trans
actions Of business, and there is a great
deal Of detail connected with the af-
fairs. Here the clearing house meets
always in the directors room of the
Utah Commercial & Savings bank,
which is rented for the purpose.

to disturb them in any way. Notice of
the grueSome find was given DR.. Louis

son, supposed to be a tramp. had lost
his life by the burning of the barn.
DR. Mason received the notice late
Thursday evening and early Friday
morning went to the site of the fire.
After a ride with its attendant vicissi-
tudas over the back hill country he ar
rived at the Frost summer home and
was met by Mrs. Frost, who again told
him OF her belief that the bones were
those OF a human being. DR.. Mason
went to the awesome spot and indeed
did find bones that were about the size
u a persons ribs. To clinch her con-
tention Mrs. Frost said that the bones
occupied q spot about where the stairs
o. the barn were before the fire. Be-
ginning to think that there was some-
thing TO IT, the doctor leaned over and
picking uD one of the supposed bones
found that it was nothing more nor
less than a portion of a rubber hose
