LAWS FOR PORTO RICO.
Many of the United States Statutes g Are Incorporated in Code.

2 Washington, March 4,-The commission to revise and compile the laws of Porto Rico has submitted it's report to the att -torney general The commission consisted Of Joseph Daily of New York and L. S. Rowe of Pennsylvania and Juan Herman adez Lopez of Porto Rico.
 The system of local government pro posed by the commission includes a county, city and village organization The com mission has taken long steE has placed sufficient power in the in sular government to guard against the dangers of local inexperience or incom- petence The system leaves to the local authorities the management of loca affairs, but prescribes a definite standard fDf efficiency in most services, such as Sanitation, drainage. water supply, street -rleaning, etc. If the local government fails to meet these standards the insular government is given sufficient power to meet every emergency.
 The habeas corpus act is another of the Important changes proposed by the com mission. The Spanish civil code does not recognize divorce. although a sepa- ration proceeding is provided for. This branch of the law has brought into close harmony with the system prevailing in New York and Massachusetts.
 In the matter of wills and interstates the Spanish civil code leaves but little freedom to the testator. Here again an adoption to the system prevailing in the United States has been made.

SECOND OF THE SERIES
 OF COOKING LECTURES.

The second of the series of cooking lec- lures given by Mrs. D. G. Stevens will be given this morning at 10:3O o'clock at the Woman's Club. Mrs. Stevens subjects are selected with great care. and are along just the line that appeals to all women who desire to know something of the practical side of cooking as well as the artistic. The subjects demonstrated by Mrs. Stevens are by no means confined to the elaborate course luncheon and din ner. but suggest ideas and show the proper preparation of the dishes that every woman has on her table every day. The lectures are therefore very instruc- tive and valuable, is as much that they deal with practical cooking. In almost every instance Mrs. Stevens gives an at tractive little touch to the dish she pre- pares, and sets it forth beautifully gar nished, emphasizing that 1t is not so much the quantity that is important but the artistic way in which a dish is served. It shows, too, that the simplest meal can be made attractive.
 Mrs. Stevens lectures are wholly in- formal, and her demonstrations are so successful that the classes watch every development with interest.

French Opera Company.

Among the members of the famous
 French Opera Company of New Orleans
 who are to shortly visit this city, giving
 two of their great grand opera produc- tions. are several artists of note, who have won distinction throughout Europe.
 MT. Due, the famous French tenor, from
 the Grand Opera, Paris. is considered to | be the greatest artist that has ever been
 brought to America. He only joined the company a short time before the season
 closed, and 1t proved treat to the opera habitures who for the past fifty years have heard great singers each season, but
 1t remained for MT. Due to astound them; they went wild over this singing; and both
 the operas and the opera patrons were
 unanimous in declaring him to be the
 greatest artist that has ever appeared in New Orleans. In that old historic temple
 of music Mime. Foedor, the dramatic so-
 prano of the company, Is another artist
 that has won distinction throughout Eu
 rope, creating several Grand Opera roles.
 She appeared in New Orleans a few years
 ago and met with phenominal success,
 and when she was announced to return to
 this city, 1t was hailed with unbounded joy that she was to return again. She improved wonderfully and she surpassed
 her previous successes there.
 MT Bauxman, the basso, Is another ar tist whose reputation is world renowned.
 This is his third successive season in New Orleans, which is an endorsement in
 itself. He truly must be a great artist when he can return for the third time. They are loathe to part with him, and
 he Is already engaged for next season. | He is not only admired as a great singer | but charming man as well.
 Ranking next to MT. Due is MT. Hender- l son. the great American tenor, and one whom America can be proud. He is pos | sessed of voice that no American has | ever equalled, and outside of MT. Due no | other tenor that has ever visited the Cres- cent City ever met with the receptions that have been accorded him. He is not only great singer but a finished actor
 as well. with a magnificent stage pres sure.
 Mme. Chambellan, the lyric soprano, with the wonderful high notes, and Mime. Br1- cite, the contrallo, are also wonderful ar lists who have been enthusiastically ad- mred throughout the season. Besides the
 aforementioned artists there are really
 a dozen other artists of international rep
 utation, and with the large and we'll
 drilled chorus, complete ballet, with three
 premier dausenses, orchestra of forty
 musicians. the music-lovers of Birming-
 ham can consider this a great treat, as
 Birmingham Is among the few cities to be
 visited by this noted organization. They
 will appear here on Saturday presenting "The Huguenots' for the night perform ance and Carmen for the matinee.
