Herbert Clifton, Broadway's latest and best acquisition in the feminine comedy ranks, startled and amused his audiences at PoH's theatre yester- day. When caught at the evening performance, he was attired in The most sumptuous gowns Valeska Sur rat ever aspired to. His plumage was marvelously arranged. In comedy as well as in lmpGrsonation he ranks in the Eltinge class.
 The Seven Bracks, most marvellous of all. acrobatic acts, offers new and novel sensations in the art of hurling bodies about space with absolute abondon and fearlessness of death. Their act is both artistic and hair raising and for those who want un- adulterated thrills they will furnish them on the three-a-day schedule.
 J. Warren Nerrigan, who appears in the photoplay masterpiece, "A Mans Man." has made a departure from the wild and wooly character, bringing to light one that is entirely new and original. He stars in an ab- sorbing and throbbing drama of the West.
 How poliomyelitis was spread throughout the country in 1916 in an - effort to stop munitions production is shown in the 14th Episode of the Eagle Eye.
 The Melody sisters are what their name implies. Three girls with wide range of vocal power and a comic in terlude make the act pleasing in it's duration before the footlights.

planation is that the Connecticut Pow CT and Lighting Company, now build ing the great dam on the Housaton1c at Zoar Bridge desires to obtain con- trol of the Shepaug River with its tributaries as storage reservoirs to euualize ard maintain constant flow of water for it's great enterprise on the Housatonic. The Shepaug is the largest feeder of the Housatonic north of the Naugatuck stream which enters the Housatonic at Derby, and hence of no value to the dam which is some eight miles further up the principal river of Western Connecticut With grasp on this water shed and with the Rocky River out flow and the large inland lake known as Squant's Pond in New Fairfield and Sherman made secure the Connecticut Power and Lighting Company will be ade- quately supplied in all seasons with water for it's stupendous water power plant. Besides it will render itself immune from competition as far as the Massachusetts line. The parts of the state taken up by Litchfield | County lying on both sides of the Housatonic belong to two dfverging watersheds, that easterly towards the Naugatuck and that westerly towards the Croton watershed of New York. Also looking into the future it will be able to control for the cities and 1 towns of Southern and south west ern Connecticut public waters for these expanding and fast growing mu- nicipalities when they shall have out grown their present equipment of wa ter for the public use. And judging by the phenomenal growth of Bridge port and other shore cities the officers of this power company believe this day is not far away. But to many of the older people of this town the fore going considerations have but little weight and they bemoan the now ir- retrievable loss of the towns chief stream which formerly held a score or more of little workshops scattered up and down it's length. The more no table mills were the Beach Wheeler's S
 located in the big woods north of
 John Minors, near the Woodbury turnpike; the Erastus Castle mill near the state road at Castle-Side; the Gay lord Bronson Saw Mills, and Flow Works, now the W. & H. Bronson Flow Works, farther down the stream and still farther away the notable Warmers Mill Power Co.'S plant held
 forth to welcome the farmers who came for miles around with OK wagons loaded with apples. Now this power plant was a combination concern, where apples were turned into cider and the cider into apple whiskey or
 apple-jack, common stimulant
 among the early farmers. Between
 seasons when the apples were grow ing the more progressive farmers
 brought saw logs to be converted in to plank board and joist. while leg

PLAZA

Maryon Vadie and Ota Gygi open ed a three-day engagement at the Plaza yesterday and lovers of music sof music that is really music in the finer sense of the word should take advantage of the opportunity to see an act that is worth it's weight in gold. This wonderfully clever duo, accompanied on the piano by a very clever young woman, has an offering that is superb. Miss Vadie dances with the ease and grace of the pro- verbal nymph, while Ota Gygi, who never raises his eyes from the strings of his violin, renders a repertoire of classical masterpieces in a manner that will make you forget that you are in a theatre.
 The Three Musketeers are old friends and they scored big recep- ton with their new vehicle, "The Book Agent" yesterday The skinny fellow with the trio created a verita- ble tornado of laughter with his ec- centric antics and they oices were well worth listening to.

 Nadolny with his Oriental surprise was entertaining. His main suit is juggling in a comedy vein and he kept the crowd with him to the finish.
