Wife of Waterbury Man Who Was
 Detained at Ellis Island.

Secretary Cortelyou, of the depart ment of commerce and labor, has de- nied the appeal made by Attorney Lynch of this city on behalf of Mrs Racheli Di Guiseppi, an Italian wo- man who was detained at Ellis Is- land on account of some trouble with her eyes. Her husband, who resides in Waterbury, employed Attorney Lynch and Dr MaloneH to go to New York and see what they could do in the premises. The physician satisfied the authorities that there was nothing serious the matter with the woman, still they were bound by tie law and could not allow her to land. An ap- peal was made to headquarters at Washington, but all to no avail. Mrs Dl Guiseppi was sent back to the cid country yesterday, the steamer having sailed out of the dock short time be- fore her husband called to bid her and their eight-year-old daughter goodbye. It was sad case all the way through. The woman came over here accompan- jed by her mother and a daughter. The mother died on Ellis Island on account of the excitement incident to the detention of her daughter, and now after long wait the mother and child have been deported, and the hus- band who had a home prepared for them scarcely knows where he is at.

IN THE POLICE COURT.
Only Plain Drunks Appeared Before
 Judge Peasley To-Day.

Judge Peasley had only plain, sleepy drunks to deal with in the city court to-day. Early this morning Off fcer J. Mccarthy found James Saun- ders enjoying the length and width of Dublin street as much as an intoxicat- ed man asleep could enjoy it. Saun- ders said he came from Ansonia, where he has been working. He was fined $5 and costs and put on thirty days probation. The same officer on his rounds found Martin Donahue asleep in the yard Of the saloon at the corner of East Main and Orange streets. Donahue had nothing to say for him. self. His case was disposed of as Saunders was
 Frank Latham came from Terryville yesterday to see the circus and have good time. He succeeded earlier than he expected, but in facr had no fun at all. He did not even see the ele- plants or the beauty that was turning somersaults in the hay wagon in the rear of the parade. for he went to sleep on lawn on North Willow street. As he appears to be respect able he was let off with a fine of $1 and costs and given thirty days to pay it in.

Bazaar of the Queens Daughters at
 City Hall.

Even the presence of big circus III the city did not interfere with the at- tendance last night at the charity pa zaar, which is being given in the Clty hall by the Queens Daughters for the benefit of the Sisters of the Holy Ghost One of the largest crowds of the week was present and the management was delighted. It was Hibernians night and the sons and daughters of Ireland, always true and loyal ito the cnt;rcn and all charitable enterprises, turned out in large numbers to aid in the no- ble cause.
 The Japanese village continues to be very attractive place. It's beautl- full decorative and ornamental work and designs are the subjects of much praise from the spectators, who never grow tired of lingering about the viii lage and admiring the different decora- tions and the articles on exhibition. It is worth the price of admission to see the Japanese village.
 The entertainment last night was finely rendered. Each number was excellent and was accorded unlimited applause. The entertainment tonight will be furnished by the Foresters, Lady Foresters, the Talma club and the Young Mems Catholic Literary as- sociation. One of the finest programs of the week will be presented as many well known artists have been engaged to appear. Song, My Own United States" J. M. Daily; dance, Michael Curley.

PORTER GETS IT.
The Grand Cross of Legion of Honor
 Conferred Upon Him.

Paris, June 1S.-President Loubet has conferred upon the American am- bassador. General Porter, the grand cross of the Legion of Honor, which is the highest grade of that historic or der. 1t is an honor rarely bestowed even on chiefs of state and ambassa- dors and it is the first time it has ever been offered to q representative of America AS under the provision Of the constitution the acceptance of any mark of distinction from a goreign country. even from republic, re- quires the approval of congress, final action in the matter will await the au- thorization of that body.
 Foreign Minister Delcasse called at the ambassadors residence this morn ing and personally presented him with the superb insignia of the grand cross. This consists of Ia wide. red silk band, worn across the breast, having an enameled gold cross at the hip, with an elaborate silver star to be worn on the right breast. M. Delcasse accom- panied the presentation by an earnest expression of the high personal es- teem which M Loubet and himself felt toward the American representa- tive
 The grand cross is the highest of the five grades of the Legion of Honor. These consist of chevalier. officer, com mander, grand officer and grand cross. The latter is the grade worn by M. Loubet and has been conferred only a few times in recent years.
 That the American ambassador should have been singled out for this notable honor is considered to be a personal tribute to him and another evidence of the cordial sentiments of the French government towards Amer ica.

BID FAREWFLL TO sCH0OL.


 New Britain, June 1S.-The vacation season of St Mary's parochial school, which began yesterday, is of more than usual interest. When the chil- dren left the school it was the under standing that they would never return to the building. When school time again the new building on Beaver street will be occupied. The old school has an interesting history. The building or series of buildings had their origin in 1862. when a school house for the parish was erected at the corner of Myrtle and High streets. near the original St Mary's church. For years the town bore the expense of the school and paid the teachers. The Rev Luke Daly was pastor of St Mary's, and when he died in 1878 the Rev pr Hugh Carmody succeeded him. The following year the Sisters of Mercy were installed as teachers. and the town withdrew it's appropriation Buildings were added as the parish grew, and of late years both the con vent building and the old church have been used for school purposes. The children can scarcely appreciate the change in the order of things as much as the grown people.
