STORE BUILDING BURNED AT PARR.

The store building at Parr, owned by 8. P. Thompson, was destroyed by fire Thursday night. A pool room was in a part of the building and a barfbr shop in one corner. The loss was total. The building was worth S7OO to SBOO, and was insured in J. C. Porter’s agency for SSOO. The occupants of the building had no insurance, we understand. McCurtain Bros.’ store, adjoining, was somewhat damaged also. The fire is supposed to have started from a stove or defective flue.
