THREE BUILDINGS, 6 CARLOADS
SEED AND 80 BALES OF COT
TON DESTROYED.
NO INSURANCE is CARRIED
Parchman Farm Swept by FIames-or
lain Unknown-BeIieVe That Some
Disgruntled Person Set the
Gin House on Fire.
Jackson.


Fifteen thousand dollars is the loss
sustained by fire at the Parchman con.
vict farm when flames, that originated
In Gin House No. /, consumed three
small frame buildings, six carloads OF
cotton seed and eighty bales of loose
cotton. Twelve hundred bales of cot.
ton which had been ginned, in a near.
by warehouse, were not injured.
How the fire originated is a mystery,
but Farm superintendent J. G. Gath
ings, who is in Jackson, believes it
was incendiary. DR.. Gathings was on
his first vacation since he has been
superintendent, and was en- route from
Tupelo to Meridian when he heard of
the fire, and came direct to Jackson.
P. E. Matthews, one of the prison
trustees, was in charge at Parchman.
DR.. Gathings believes that some dis
gruntled person set the gin house on
fire. The blaze was discovered when
persons at the depot saw a cloud Of
black smoke coming from the building.
1t spread so quickly that the building
was almost consumed before the men
could begin work to fight the flames,
which spread to the cotton house and
the seed house, nearby. Every effort
was made to extinguish the fire, but
all that could be done was to keep
1t from spreading to the warehouse
where the ginned cotton was stored.
The gin building, the cotton house
and the cotton seed house, together
with their contents, were destroyed.
The value of the destroyed buildings
and contents roughly estimated is as
follows: Three buildings, $4,000;
loose cotton, $4,000; cotton seed, ST.
900.
AS the state carries no insurance,
the buildings and products will be a
total loss.

Three members of the board have
declared that the court house is I'm.

have instructed the ~cEancery clerk to
invite architects to submit plans and
specifications for a new building. They
also contemplate issuing bonds for
erecting a new structure. Two mem,

claring that the court house is per
