 Losses by Fire.
 Another disastrous fire occurred in Bethel at an early hour Sunday morn ing. and, like at least one of the precedipg ffes, it was of mysteious origin. Ie was about 1:30 a. m., when the structure known as the Gilbert Brothers factory, opposite the rail- road station, was discovered to be i'm flames and within a short time the large building was practically in ruins The building had been unoccupied for some time and the fact that the fire started o--side the factory under a small open shed. seems to prove that it was of incendfRry origin.
 The loss is a total one, for there was no insurance and it is estimated at between six and seven thousand dol lars Another loser by the fire is Joseph Vaghi. who carries on a cab @1et business in small building just south of the destroyed factory, Mir -aghf used a considerable portion of the factory for storage purposes and he estimates his loss at fully one thou sand dollars with no insurance. A large quantity of the rustic lawn fur u3ture which MT. Vaghi manufactures was burned and there was also in the factory a full sized collapsibIe life boat which he had invented and se- cured patents on and hoped to soon place on the market The boat was nearly completed and valued at i've hundred dollars.
 The hve-ton truck used by s. Co., hen & Co-, of Stamford, caught fire Wednesday evening on Keeler's HiIl, and was practically destroyed The driver heard pun. and looking back. saw the car ablaze- The fire spread EA7idlys and reached the gasoline tank
