BEGIN TASK OF
PUTTING court
HOUSE IN SHAPE
Treasurer and Clerk Open OF
fices-Expert Locksmith
Required to Open
Doors of Vaults.

The first movement in the colossal
work of starting up the county ma
chinery in the court house after the
holocaust of Sunday night was be-
gun yesterday when the county
treasurer's office started business in
the criminal court on the fourth
floor The entire working force was
present. Benches were removed from
the large ceart room and desks,
stationery, etc. installed.
New books have been ordered and
the almost-hopeless task started OF
restoring in some degree the burned
records.
Expert Opens Vault.
An expert locksmith yesterday
succeeded in opening the door OF
the vaults in the offices of the
county treasurer and county clerk.
The walls of these vaults are pro-
tected from heat by a nine-inch
sheath of tile. But the great steel
doors, exposed to the heat of the
flames were somewhat damaged
and opened only with great diff
Guilty.
Most of the most valuable records
of the county are in these vaults
together with bonds, warrant rec
ords, etc. The $l,000,00O of Douglas
county highway improvement bonds
recently issued were sent to the sec
retary Of states office in Lincoln
for signature last Thursday.

business until his office has been re-

clearing the debris from the ruined
offices and hauling it in wheelbar-
rows to the street.
$4,000 for Windows.
1t will cost $4,000 just to restore
the plate glass windows which were
broken with stones and bricks and
shot out by bullets,
A most serious problem facing the
county commissioners is the placing
of the building in condition to make
work possible when the weather
turns cold, which may occur any
day.
1t was said yesterday that there
isn't enough plate glass in the city
to replace all the broken windows.
The steam fixtures have been
broken in dozens of places, and per-
haps entirely ruined in the devastat-
ed Offices, by the heat of the flames.
The radiators in many places are
broken from the pipes and the whole
steam heating system badly dam
aged.
Authorize Rebuilding.
The county commissioners yester-
day authorized John Latenser, archi-
tect of the court house, to proceed
with rebuilding the burned portion
of the building. The most pressing
work will be done at once, pending
issue of bonds for the main part of
the work.
