J John E. Grant Threatens to Shoot His
 BrOther-in-1aW After Killing His
 Dog.
 Friday night at Meriden the station-agent of the Consolidated road, William Stoddard, was threatened with death by his brother-in- law, John E. Grant. The latter went to the formers house and shot his dog Grant claimed he was simply trying his re volver and the dog happened to get in front of it. He then returned to the depot and met MT. Stoddard and Chief Ford Mr. Stoddard suspected that Grant meant mis- chief and asked him what he had in his pock- et Grant pulled out big seven-shooter and pointed it at MT. Stoddard. As he did so the chief stepped between them. Grant told him not to interfere or he ''wouId bore him." Grant stated that Chief Ford was not the man he was after. MT. Stoddard walked away and Grant was subsequently, arrested in McClean's restaurant In the station house he broke the bunk in his cell into kindling wood and had to be handcuffed to the cell door. Grant, when in his cups, feels that his relatives have injured him and threat ems revenge While in the jail he swore to kill Mr. Stoddard, and Jailer Stevens warn ed the latter to be on his lookout. Grant was bound over to the Superior court for as sault with intent to kill, and was brought to the county jail in this city Saturday morn ing. He has given the jail officials here no trouble thus far, but is regarded as desper- ate fellow

Changes of EngIneers,

The new arrangement of runs on the Con solidated road causes a re- arrangement of engi- neers. The changes will be made gradually and each engineer will be accompanied by 8 pilot familiar with the division Thus before long and without any perceptible change the new arrangement will be in full working or der. The men will be obliged to perform a little more work, but in return will receive more pay, the new rate being 31s cents per mile The company by this new arrange ment gets the same amount of work done by less number of men, and although paying higher monthly wages, yet in the main saves expense by reducing the payroll list
 Hence the uneasiness of the engineers as to who will be left without a train. There are over 200 engineers and firemen on the road.

Teaching the OvIets to Fly.

Teaching the OWletS EO FIys
 From ''Some Rambles of a Naturalist,'' by Dr. c. C. Abbott in Popular Science Monthly for I Augustl
 { In the beak of each owl was a mouse, or what took to be such, and when they alight- ed on the maple could detect, in the un- certain light, that they do not approach closely to the young birds, but, having re- moved the mice, which they now held in their claws, they chattered and screamed to their young, in manner that could be inter preted as, F'Come over here and get your mouse" It was evident that the young owls were to be taught to help themselves, and to practice their power of flight. As an induce ment to do the latter, the mice were held
 temptingly before them, but quite out of
 reach Finally ,one young owl more venture
 some than his fellows, essayed to fly; but it
 was & miserable failure for, instead of reach
 ing the desired branch it fell short a foot or
 more, and tumbled to the ground. I can not
 prove that owls laugh, but think that any
 one who heard the old birds just then would
 never doubt the fact that they do. The fun
 niest feature, however, was that the three
 remaining young birds were disgusted with
 what they saw, or were frightened by it-at all
 events, they hastened back to the nest, and
 saw them no more that evening.
 Of the poor fellow that fell to the ground
 there is much to be said, as it was with it
 that the old birds were now wholly con-
 cerned, and their actions were highly enter
 taining. Leaving the tree, they flew down
 to the hapless bird, and muttered in low
 tones to it, in a most sympathizing manner Their utterances now, which I could heal notwithstanding the racket made by the frogs, were very varied, and gave the impress sion that they were holding a conversation After the lapse of minute or more the olo birds together took short, low flight, and
 then returned to the young owl. Was it moi to show. it how easy flight was! Then agair they flew away, in the same manner, and the young owl endeavored to follow. It was witt evident difficulty that it left the ground, but when once it's feet were clear of the grass i progressed satisfactorily, though only for { short distance. This pleased the old birds for one of them came to the plucky little fel low, and, with one wing extended, patted tho young bird on the head and back most ten derly At this laughed aloud, most unfor tunately, and immediately the old birds flew to the nesting tree, and then discovered my hiding-place Of all the seedlings l ever got that from the owls, this evening, was tht severest. As moved away I recalled tht oft-witnessed scene of the king birds worry ing crows It was the same thing in my case. Keeping out of reach of my cane, they swooped about my head and snapped the1l bills viciously. They did not dare to strlk' me, but they came unpleasantly near, and i was with feeling of comfort that l finally reached safer quarters.
