Wlmt Whs Onee the Home of a Hnnk
Is Being: Transformed Into a Hljr
Jewelry Serre.
Tn the gradual growth of a town into a
metropolis nothing is more interesting
than to note the modernizing Influence on
the older buildings.
As a concrete example, the building at
2titi Morrison street, formerly occupied by
the Security Savings & Trust Company.
For several weeks carpenters and masons
have been busy remodeling the exterior
and interior for Jaeger Bros.. Jewelers, of
Fifth street, who upon Its completion this
week, will occupy it.
The show-windows are a row of heavy
plate glass, with prismatic glass tops, to
reflect light Into the store, doing away,
to a large degree, with artificial light.
Tiled floors, solid mahogany wall cases,
with old brass trimmings, and a four-foot
mahogany paneling above the cases, hand
some leather settees between these wall
cases, and metal lighting fixtures in keep
ing with the rest of the furnishings show
to what a degree the modern storekeeper
exerts himself to surround his patrons
with every comfort and luxury.
Two large fire and burglar-proof vaults,
protected by the most modern burglar
alarm system complete what will un
doubtedly be as tine a jewelry store as
there is in the Paciiic Northwest. Jaeger
Bros, will move into their new home the
latter part of the week, at which time
they will have the house warming.

today for Salem to conduct the prosecu

prosecutor says he is co?ittdcnt of seeur-
John Mnnnlnic, UlstrlW Attorney
ins u rtinvletlon. He hns decided to press
ilrst. the i liai'Ko of converting state money
to personal use. Mr. Manning will per
sonally look after the prosecution of Kitss,
as well as Hops Indicted associates. T. T.
Burkhart nnd John Aitchlson. Hurkhart
will he second lo nppear for trial and
Aitchlson third.
Fifteen witnesses have been suhpenned
by Mr. Mamilmf lor the trial. The princi
pal witnesses for the state will be J. V.
Ferauson and George Hlack, who experted
the hooks of the Insolvent bunk, and M.
B. Rankin, who borrowed school funds
from Ross. The other witnesses are book
keepers, accountants and employes nf the
bank, nnd a larse iercentH(re will appear
in the role of unwilling witnesses.
Permission was secured yesterday by
Mr. Manning from the Federal Court for
removal of the Title Guarantee & Trust
Comiviny s books to Salem for use during
the trial. These books are expected to
play a strong part in the prosecution and
the order for tiielr removal to Salem was
a decided point in favor of the state.
At the conclusion of the Ross trial Burk
hart will be taken before the court to
answer to a similar charge, and following
Aitchison's appearance a second charge
will be taken up against Ross, that of
larceny of state funds. A second larceny
charge and a charge of loaning state
money out ot Interest will be pressed
later, not only against Ross, but against
the other two. There are 12 cases to be
tried In all. and the Marion County court
will be kept busy for some time.
"While Mr. Manning succeeded in secur
ing an early date for the first trial of
Ross, the other cases have not yet been
set. He intends taking advantage of the
tirst open dates on the Marion County
calendar, however.

In the debate held last night in the
V. M. C. A. rooms on the question of the

He contends that by changing the
West Side landing to Jefferson :itrect,
