SCHOOL BUILDING DESTROY.
ED TUESDAY.

LAWRENCEBURG, Tenn, Feb Z.
The auditorium and public school
building which is a part Of the Law
renee county high school, was burn.
ell to the ground Tuesday. The
building at the time it caught on fire
was occupied by some 200 children
of the lower grades, all of whom
quickly left the building. The FIRE
was caused by a defective fiue, and
when discovered was only a small
blaze in the top, but lack of water
made it impossible to stop it, and in q
short time the whole building was a
mass of flames. The building was
owned by J. H. Stribbling, and was
valued at about $4,000 covered by
insurance. Several articles were re
moved, including a piano, all the
books. including both school books
and The library, but desks and other
fixtures to the amount Of some $500
were consumed. The burning OF this
building will not interfere with the
school. as only the lower grades oc.
clpied this building, and they win 90
cupy their quarters for the remainder
OF the term.
