Fire i'm Fairfield Avenues Bridgeport
 Loss SIS, ,OO0---NOt am April Fool Mat
 ter--A S25, 1000 Fire i'm Danbury. ESsS
 A fire ragged from half past six until nearly eight o'clock yesterday morning in Bridge port in the upper part of a four story brick building situated on Fairfield avenue, be- tween the Atlantic Hotel addition and brick block closely. adjoining on the west. The block contains three buildings, divided by brick partitions extending to the roof. The middle building is occupied by o. E. Linds- ley's shirt manufactory, the one adjoining the hotel by R. B. Stiles furniture manufactory and saIesrooms, and the third by Couch & Wisner's shoe menufactory. The fire broke out in the drying room of the shirt factory, located in about the center of the top floor. The damage to the building, which belongs to the estate of the late Hanford Lyon, does not exceed $2, ,OOO. Against this there is an in- surance of $11, ,OOO. The principal damage to the occupants of the buildingis from smoke and water, no goods having been consumed except those on the fourth floor of the shirt factory. MT. Lindsley's loss is estimated at between $4, 900 and $6, ,O00. MT. Stiles es- inmates his loss at $3 500. He had an insur- ance of just this amount upon his stock until January 1st, when he had it reduced to $2,- 500. This is the present amount of his poli- cy. Couch E Wisner have an insurance upon their stock of $16, 900. Their loss is several thousand dollars. Their present estimate, as nearly as could be judged, puts the amount between $4, 900 and $5, 900.
 The Farmer says: MT. O. E. Lindsley was at breakfast in the Atlantic Hotel this morn ing, when one of the walters came up and told him that there was fire in his shirt fac tory. ''You can't April fool me with such nonsense" said MT. Lindsley to himself, and he calmly went on eating. The next minute MT. Hunt, the clerk, shouted from the office to him that the shop was all on fire. The tone was so earnest that Mir Lindsley, al- though still doubtful concluded he would go out and sse. When he reached the street and saw the smoke pouring out of the windows, the last vanishing vestige of skepticisna was succeeded by very sudden interest in the situation of affairs.
 A fire broke out about half-past 6 o'clock yesterday morning in the fur factory of Lacey & Downs, Danbury. In a very short time the building was burned to the ground. The fire was first discovered in the upper part of the building, and nothing was saved with the ex- ception of small amount of stock and little machinery on the lower floor. The building occupied the site of a factory which was burned several years ago, and was called the ''Pboenix factory" The stock belonged to Messrs. Martin Bates, jr., $ Co.,, of New York. His estimated loss is $25, 900, insur- ance $6, 000. The fire is supposed to be of incendiary origin.

some Duck Shooting.

lErom the D%troit Free Prees.l
 Speaking of the duck shooting on St. Clair Flats" sighed an old citizen, as he took 8 seat in the gun store, 1T don't think there are as many birds up there as there were ten or fif- teen years ago. Why, sir, the channel used to be just black with lem on the head" Every body sighed to think that those good old days and ducks could never return, and the veteran hunter continued: tI remember was out one day in April. I got in among the bipeds, and how many do you suppose counted ?"
 ''Three hundred, "ventured one of the audi tors, after long interval. ''Three hundredi ! Why always killed over 8 thousand every time went out No, sir; I counted over six teen thousand great big, fat, plump, delicious ducks, and then had only counted those on one side of the boatl' How long did it take you?" T don't know, sir; had no watch with me. Time is nothing to man counting ducks. counted aloud, and when the ducks were small counted two for one. By and by got tired of counting and got ready for the slaughter" ''How many did you kill?" ''Well, now, suppose could lie about it and say killed nine or ten hundred, but I'm get ting too near the grave for that No, didn't kill blasted one, and that's where the strange part of the story comes in. When I began to lift that gun up those ducks knew what was up to just as well as human being, and what did they do?> Why, sir, about two hundred of 'em made 8 sudden dive, swam under the boat and all raised on her port side at once Hnu upset AoI! 1es, BIT, tuey Olu auO there I was in the North Channel, in ten feel of water, boat upset, night coming on and in my wet clothes" s'Wsll?" 'sWell, climbed up on the bottom of the boat, foated five miles and was picked up by two Indians. We lowed that upset boat to an island, and here another curious thing comes in. Under the boat were two hundred and sixty-four large, plump ducks. They had bsen caught there when she upset, and all we had to do was to haul 'em out and rap lem on the head" ''Why did't they dive down and get from under the boat ?" asked the amateur duck shooter. ''Why didn't they sir; why didn't they Well. sir, might have asked 'em why they didn't, but it was too late a cold wind had sprung up, and didn't feel like talking All I know is that counted over sixteen thousand ducks, captured two hundred and sixty and have afidavits here in my wallet to prove everything I have stated. Does any man here want to see the documents ?" No man did. They all looked out of the window and won dsred if they could lie that way when they had passed three-score years.
