ber of students with an enrollment of
thirteen. The lads are taking up all man
ner of studies, three of them having de
cided to study scientific methods of agri
culture. This sounds rather strange to

C0SGR0VE TO TALK AT
NATIONAL CITY CONVENTION

Unable to Attend.

Huge Gong a Part
of Burglar Device
Bought by County
Will Arouse Entire City if Attempt
is Made for the County's
Valuables.
If Douglas county's treasurer and Ms
assistants go home and forget to lock the
vault In which money and valuable secur
ities are kept they will be reminded of
their duty by a huge gong atop the new
county building. The gong will be one that
can be heard a distance of about six miles.
The county commissioners Saturday voted
to have the treasurer's vault In the new
building equipped with burglar alarms by
the American Bank Protection company at
a cost of SHOO. With patented devices the
company so equips the vault that It Is Im
possible of entry without alarming the en
tire city.
The alarm system Is worked by electricity.
A time deflc sets the mechanism In opera
tion at closing time In the evening. It re
mains on duty until some proper official
arrives In the morning and with his key
turns It off. When the mechanism Is at
work It Is impossible to touch the vault
door, to drill through the walla or to at
tempt to work the combination without
setting the gong a-gotng. If at quitting
time the vault Is not properly closed the
gong starts ringing and 'rings until It Is
closed. Whenever the gong rings a regis
ter device, like the floor signal box In an
elevator, shows Just where the trouble or
would-be thief is.
A small gong was on exhibition In the
commissioners' room Saturday. The com
mlssloners got to plsylng with It and tho
noise was almost deafening. The com
from other officers were sent down to have
the Jangling stopped.

so that the board will not next year re
peat Its experience of this running out of
money months before the next tax Income
