LANDED ON HER FEET.
Girl Mistook Call of Brakeman and
 1iifnnnd froyy ara4s;,r rTsro{,,


 Jumped from Moving Train.
 Winsted. Jan 2s.--Whjlc q Central New England passenger train wps passing the ChelIybroo flag station at full speed the other evening, Miss Thiery. a daughter of Frank Thiery, of Pine Meadow, cooly jumped from 1t and was found several hours later by her father walking home uuhurt.
 Miss Thiery had been spending the day in Winsted and was on her way home. She was chatting with friends Tn tue ear as the train approached Cherryhrook and immediately after the brakeman called out the station hur1iedly left her seat and rushed for ward. 1t was thought sle wanted to wave at some friends and nothing was said. But when slle did not re- turn to her seat her friends became alarmed and investigated. She could not be found on the train.
 Report was at once made to the railroad company and it ordered out special train with large crew of men to look for the young woman, who was supposed to be seriously injured, If not killed At the same time most of the male population of Pine Mead ow, led by MT Thiery, organized other searching parties. &a
 Near the Cherrybrooly station q tri- butary of the Farmington river flows under the track. When no sign of the young woman had been found on land it was supposed that she had fal- len into the stream and her body had been swept away. This was exam ined to the mouth. but no sign of her was discovered Then the fnther. who, in despair, was. driving home, came across her trudging up steep hill.
 Asked why she had jumped; she an- swered that she misunderstood the brakeman and thought he had called out Pine Meadow.
 She said she landed on her feet when she jumped and. after rolling over on the soft ground several times. and soiling her dress, was not even bruised.

WATERBURY TO NEW HAVEN.
Consolidated to Make Steam Road
 Connections.

Connections.
 New Haven. Jan 2S.--Presldent Hall of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad. said yesterday that the reports of the opening of steam passenger route between Waterbury and New Haven over the Waterbury. Meriden and Middletown railroad and the New Haven and Northampton di- vision, are correct. Speaking of the new move President Hall said:
 "We can probably bring people in from Waterbury to New Haven by means of the short connection at West Cheshire in something less than an hour. There is no immediate intention of using electricity on the Meriden road and there is no necessity of doing so because we shall make the time from Waterbury to New Haven in orle- third of the time or less than any electric road that can be built will be able to make it. The proposition is to run from Dublin station In Waterbury direct to the union station in New Ha- ven and to have the road in operation in the early part of the warm season. All that remains to be done Is to put In short connection at West Cheshire of some 1.6O0 feet, uniting the two roads spoken Of"

TWO YOUTHFUL TENDS.
Bound and Gagged Companion, Then

Bound and Gagged Companion, Then
 Tried to Set Fire to Bed.
 New Haven, Jan 2S.-Two boys, about 9 years of age, who promise to have ferocious careers ahead of them If they are allowed to go unchecked, were yesterday sent from the city court to the reform school at Meriden. The boys were charged with arson, but the details of the crime are about as cold blooded as anything ever un- dertaken in this city within the mem ory of the oldest policeman.
 The boys names are Frederick Glow of Hamden and George Edward Griswold of Waterbury, The latter part of last week when confined in what is known as the annex to the county home, the grabbed q small companion named Willie Mulligan of this city, and bound and gagged him.
 Then they placed their victim on a cot bed and deliberately set fire to the bed and also to the handkerchief which was about the boys mouth. Su- perintendent Newcomb happened in the nick of time to reach the scene and by heroic effort saved the boy from the burning bed.
 The little fellow was frightfully shocked from the experience he had gone through with and suffered bad burns about his feet. Fortunately his injuries were such as not to be in any way dangerous, although exceedingly painful.
 The bed and bedding in which the unfortunate boy was placed were bad. ly damaged by fire and practically de stroyed. Why the boys should have selected such horrible form of amusement is beyond human power to know and at Meriden they will be placed under the strictcst guard to prevent them from committing any like atrocities
