A geySer of water followed the untitled roar, and hundreds join ed the several dozens of spectators who gathered when Captain Boyton and his son approached the bridge in their motor boat.
 Four minutes later another charge was exploded and just before 2:3O a third explosion was set off The water boiled for several minutes al, about the bridge, and refuse and oily deposits arose to the surface, but until late hour no trace of the youngsters was to be found

 Growth of Finely Managed Business

of the city, located on what many predict will eventually be the busiest corner of the city. Within their es- tablishment all is spic and span, an air of wholesomeness predominating. Not only is this noticeable in the main floor of the immense store, but also in their stock room which is model of good system and neatness.
 Because of wide isles there is none of that crowding which is so common to other stores of like nature.
 Manager Fred G. Hyde said today that the company had adopted the 'traveler" system for their delivery. This is the method which is used in all the bigger stores of the country, because it has been found to be the most convenient, and therefore the best. All that is necessary when or dering for delivery is to procure a traveller from the young lady cash fer. The purchaser will then order as she so pleases, pay when she hands in her "traveler' or c. O. D. In this way the purchaser is relieved of that constant bother of paying after every purchase.
 Not only do the Mohican Company carry full lines of meats and gro- ceries, but also maintain their own bakery, an exclusive wine and liquor saIes-room, and butter, fruit and fish departments, in fact every thing for the tables in quality, not to be .surpass- ed and at prices that can not be beat en elsewhere.

ODD FELLOWS IN ANNUAL CONVENTION
 AT WATERBURY
Especial from United Press )

Waterbury, May 18.-Odd Fellows Hall was crowded to the doors today when the annual convention of the grand lodge, Order of Odd Fellows, opened with Grand Master Thoms, former Mayor of Waterbury in the chair. The roll call showed 696 dele gates from all the lodges in the state to be attending. Several score more arrived in time to attend the after noon session at which the annual election of officers was scheduled.
 The annual report of Grand Mas ter ThOmS showed the order to be in the most prosperous condition in years with a larger membership than ever before and prospects for next year being better than ever. Of the delegates attending today's convention 143 were new members of the order.
 At o'clock this afternoon the delegates ate dinner at the Elton and the sole topic of conversation was the probable successor to Grand Master Thoms. At that hour it was freely predicted that Deputy Grand Master John A. Hawley of Danbury would be elected without opposition.
 The successors to Grand Treasurer Marigold of Bridgeport, and Grand Secretary Hutchins of New Haven ere problematical although their re- election was not regarded as improb- able.
 Last night the first degree of Odd Fellowship was conferred at Polls theatre on a class of fifteen candi- dates with ceremonies that have nev- CT been rivalled in the history of the Connecticut Odd Fellowship.

JACKSON'S
JACKsoN's VAUDEVILLE.

JACKSON'S VAUDEVILLE.
 There is more real tertainment in the bill of vaudeville which is now be- ing presented at this theatre than in any of the previous programs, bar none, that have been offered at this theatre during the reign of vaudeville. And that local amusement lovers are aware of this fact is evidenced by the box office receipts. which have thus far proven the largest since the com mencement of the season. Last nights attendance was of capacity propor- tions, much greater than the preced- ing night, while the outlook for the remainder of the engagement is un- usually bright and rosy. In point of fun and spontaneous humor none of the previous vaudeville bill can com, pare with this present one. as it is a gloom and grouch dispeller of the most pleasing sort. The headline act pre- scented by those inimta.ble funmakers, Collins and Hart is grotesQuely funny, and is proving the biggest laugh pro volzer ever seen in this city. It is one of the most original comedy novelties ever conceived, and is simply a riot of fun from start to finish.

MAN HANGS SELF
 IN MOOSE MADE 0F HANDKERCHIEF

Fashioning a moose from his pocket Handkerchief and a short piece of frau twine, Martin Klinker, a victim of alcoholism, temporarily insane, and confined in the insane pavilion at Lakeview home. ended his life there, late yesterday afternoon. kinkers suicide was accomplished in a room about which were gathered half a dozen other insane men, bu. none was aware of what had taken Elace until Steward Charles Miller discovered the man just expiring when he entered the cell room to give him medicine.
 Klinker was discharged from Lake view home on April 24. He was sent there by the police after he had given them a sensational battle from the top of a lumber pile in the yards of the Frank Miller Lumber Co. He was discharged as recovered, but on account of his drinking he lost his employment.
 For three weeks he sought for work without success, then took to drink again. Several times he told would end his life. Monday night he became deranged from drink and ter rorized the neighborhood of his home, S3 Columbia street, until four police men took him into custody.
 He spent the night in police head quarters and at noon yesterday was sent to Lakeview home for treat ment- Placed in cell, he took medi- cine given him for his attack of de- lirium tremens, then went to sleep, and when it came time for another treatment he was sleeping so well fEat Steward Miller heSitated about arousing him. He returned later to give him medicine and found him hanging in a peculiar manner from the foot of his bed. Life was not yet extinct, but almost before the pres sure of the moose could be relieved he had expired.
 klinker had taken a piece of twine by which a rubber sheet was tied to the bed. and tieing this to his pocket Handkerchief. managed to make a moose by which he hanged himself from the foot of the bed. His head was only about three inches above the floor, and his body lay at full length beside his cot. With remarkable de- termination he forced the moose tight and lay there awaiting the end with out even so much as a struggle to attract the attention of other inmates of the adjoining cells, all of which are so open that the smallest disturb ance in one can be heard in all.
 Klinker was about 35 years old. He is survived by a widow and three children, Julia, 13, Martin, ', and Arion, G. His family is destitute. Klinker was buried at Lakeview home in public ground this afternoon.

JOSEPH EGGERTON CAPABLE ACTOR
 POLL STOCK co,

Sometimes a certain weakness in a professional actor or actress contrib uteS in a natural way to a clever per- formance although the audience is still made to believe that it is acting. A case in point manifests itself at Poli' s this week during the performance of the Clyde Fitch comedy Girls" by the Poh Stock Company At the close Of the first act the three bachelor girls around whom the plot of the comedy hinges are preparing for bed. It is the turn of the younger girl. Miss Lansdowne Margaret Lawrence) to sleep in the Morris chair, while Kate West Caroline Locke) has the divan and Pamela Gordon Miss F1eming) the folding bed. Miss I.ansdowne is In difficulties with the sheets which fail to cover her feet, and she calls upon Pamela to tuck the sheets around her. This Pamela does with some ef- fort, for Miss Lansdowne is decidedly tlcklish and a screamingly funny scene follows. Miss Lawrence is a charm ing 1mgenue and coupled with this is the fact that she is naturally very ticklish, a trait which Miss Fleming takes full advantage of to the great JOY of the entire audience
