Fargo, July l5.-With an attend

SECOND FLOOR BURNS
Judge Englert Loses Private
Library Valued at $1,000
In The Fire

Valley City, July l5.-Fire, dis
covered about 4 40 a. m. today and
believed due to defective electric
wiring, destroyed the second floor
of the Barnes county courthouse
here and caused practically total
loss, as surveys of the damage and
estimates of the cost of repairs raise
the question Of whether it would
pay to try to restore the building
for use.
Although the definite loss is not
known, it is said to be high, as the
building was insured for $l2O,OOO.
The private library of District Judge
NJ. j. Englert, valued at $1,000, was
also destroyed. All other records
were said to have been saved.
The fire was discovered by Fred
Hemmett, a cook, who was about to
leave his rooming place nearby en-
route to his place of employment.
He saw the smoke and spread the
alarm.
Records were hastily removed and
temporary county offices and pla
ces for safe-keeping of books and
documents are being arranged today
at various downtown buildings.
The building, two-story brick
structure, was built in 1882 but eX-
tensively remodelled and improved
