RESIDENCE DESTROYED.

Morgan City.-saturday afternoon
about 3 O'Clock flames were seen issu-
ing from the residence Of Captain
John N. Pharr, about oneTmile from
Morgan City, on the opposite side OF
Berwick bay. The fire alarm sounded
and the steam fire engine was taken
to the bay, ready to be dispatched to
the scene of the fire. Mr.. Hugh
Young, Southern Pacific agent at this
nleoe, directed that the company's
tue Crockett take Q barge in tow and
convey the engine to Fairview pl an.
tation. Captain Thomas L. Morse
acted very promptly, but before the
engine was placed on board the boat
the residence was too far gone for the
engine to be Of service. Captain
pbarr was dining when the alarm OF
fire was sounded. He rushed upstairs
and discovered his bedroom in flames.
There was a small coal fire in the
| bedroom in the morning and none in
anv of the other rooms. How the fire
originated is a mystery. The Captain
is somewhat impressed with the idea
! that rats and matches in the garrett
cansed the fire. A piano and few
n;eces of furniture from the parlo1
were saved. Captain Pharr lost all
his wardrobe except an old black suit
that some one had saved and gave
him Mrs. Pharr was in New Orleans
and John A. Pharr in New Iberia
The loss is estimated at about $50, 600
The total insurance was $8, 900 in thu
