COUNTERFEIT BILLS.

Dominea Vacarro, an Italian grocer of Main street, Derby. was released from custody yesterday by United States Commissioner William 4 Wright, after a hearing upon charges made against him by Marietta Terrissina of AnsOnia, of circulating counterfeit Italian cur ency The complainant testified that she received from the prisoner In ex- change for United States currency, bills which she supposed were Italian fires valued in American money at about Sl4. She sent the alleged Italian money to her father in Italy and the latter re- turned them to his daughter with the news that they were imitation bills and cautioning her against their use.
 Mrs. Terrissina promptly made com plaint against VacaTrO.
 The defendant said that he had taken the bills in from some customer who had swindled him and that he was ig- nOrant that the counterfeits were such until he was arrested. Vacarro has made a return of the money to the com- plainant.
 Paul Russo was called as an expert on Italian currency. He examined the bills and declared them to be poor limitations of the genuine.

FIRST CASE OF ITS KIND.

The first case brought in the state of Connecticut under a statute passed by the legislature in 1895 was that when Mrs. Dora A Porter. charged with the unlawful taking of a child. was tried before Judge Bishop in the city court yesterday. No decision was reached, however. the case went over till Satur- day.
 When the case was called Mrs. Porter. who was represented by Attorney Spreyer. pleaded not guilty. Mir. Sprey- CT put in no evidence. and when the state rested its case. asked for dis charge on the ground that under the re- vised statutes of 1901. the parents are joint guardians of children, and that the older statute under which Mrs. POr- ter was arrested has been superseded by the revision.
 Judge Bishop reserved his decision. From a legal standpoint the case is q very interesting one.

The old saying the plays the thing" has never been more forcibly proven than by the success which has attend ed 'The Pride of Jennico," the roman- tic drama which will be given at the Hyperion tonight "The Pride of Jen- nico" has such spirited climaxes, such consistent characters, such tender love episodes and such sparkling comedy that when all this wealth of dramatic literature is placed before an audience no individual there present can refrain from raising both hands in delighted applause and exclaiming aloud in un- conscious enthusiasm, This is indeed nature"
 "The Pride of Jennico" was one of the greatest successes of the year ill New York during it's long run at the Criteri- on theater, when James K. Hackett as Basil Jennico was winning nightly plau- dits from delighted audiences. For the leading role Edward E, Mawson has been secured. MT. Mawson is one of the cleverest of our younger stars. En- dowed by nature with all the attributes of successful romantic actor and with physical advantages of unusual value to a heroic leading man, he also com pines with them q voice of magnificent depth and fullness, a commanding stage presence and the rare temperament to seize upon the full value of a melodra- matic situation.

New York Day by Day." a thrilling melodrama, full of startling climaxes,
 with plenty of comedy interspersed and in which numerous singing and dancing specialtiesl are introduced, received it's first presentation in this city last night at the Grand, being greeted by a large and appreciativc audience, which throughout enjoyed the excellent pro- duction. The action of the play takes place in New York city and several ex- cellent scenes are shown, notably the Battery Park and the Harlem river bridge during a snOwstorm. The cast is a strong one. Miss Belle Gold, an exceedingly versatile young woman, in- terprets no less than three roles, and does so in creditable manner. Frank Manning, as a hot sausage vender, did some clever acting, and made decided hit. Miss Joan Cravan in the role of Mother CantWell did some very clever acting, and Miss Margarite Meader, as Polly, the blind girl, also won much favor with the audience. Others in the cast were Edgar A. Martin, Randolph Roberts, D. s. Murdock, John Morris. James Johnson, Leonard Barry. Edward Wheeler, and Charles Foster. Inci- dental to the play there were ragtime melodies by Belle Gold and especially by Frank Manning and John Morris. The play will be repeated tonight and
 Wednesday matinee and evening.
