de la ejecucion de sentencias.
Para comprender el 70 faltan

el art. 75y debe terminar con ell

ba en- el articulo Sc y el segun-
do empieza en- el 100.
Adelante con esa materia sus-
tantiva metida en- la ley adjeti-

dicarle un ratio a esa mezcla.

forme de la comisi6n codifica-
dora, fecha 81 de Diciembre de
1901, pero ahora al Codigo civil
y al de Enjuiciamento civil, no
10 saliva nadie. porque Sc da CO.
mo razon, que esa mezcla esta
tomada de la practica inglesay
como ingleses 8 americanos.
son triunfoS. -.
Son preceptos que modifican
y amplian los del Codigo civil v
10 que es mas grave a1n, 10 que
hasta ahora ha bia sido respeta-
do, la ley hipotecaria!
Y como nuestro objeto es ha-
Ger notar diferencias y ese capi-
tulo esr completamente nuevo,
basta con que digamos: !tiene
de todo, como en- botical
Acciones, possession, anotacio-

iYa Sc 10 fijaran!

que lie queda de latino 8 espa-
mol, deroguesele de una vez:

Esas frases subrayadas son
del Comisionado Sr. Hernandez
Lopez, en- su voto particular
contra la totalidad del proyecto
de Codigo penal y de el es tam
bien el parrafo siguiente, con
que terminamos por hoy:
mo puede negarse nj desco-
nocerse que muchas de las le-
yes vigentes hoy en- Puerto Ri
co. entire elias el Codigo penal,
contienen principles y doctrinas
que a mas de haber echado raj
ces en- las practicas jur1dicas del
pueblo de Puerto Rico. son bue-

fectamente 4 elevados conceptos
de justicia y a indiscutibles

ferentes a la reorganization del

phblicas ha reformado el presu-
puesto de Carload, hacienda al
gunas economics, sin que por
ESQ Sc alterara en- NADIA la bue-

MlientoS.
En- la Oficina del Director de
Carload Sc han hecho algunas
reformas. igualando el sueldo
del Director de Carload, con el
de Director del Manicomio de
esta Ciudad.
Ell sueldo del Director de Ca
ridad, ha sido fjado en- 81. 500 y
el Presidente del Comite de

al COncejo, que sea aprobada es-
Ia mocion.
Anteriormente el sueldo del
director de Carload era el de
5000, asf es que el anmento
prOpuesto es de $1,000 anuales.
Y dijo el Sr. Matienzo Gin
iron:
Los motives alegados por e1
Er. BrioSO, para aumentar el
sueldo al Director de Carload,
no tienen razon de ser, pues es-
tamos diciendo que el pals esta
en- la miseria y no sc ha cele-

Trat6se despues la Suppression
de la plaza del agente compra-
dor del Board de Carload, cuya
plaza esta dotada con el sueldo
de 81, 200 anuales, a 10 que Sc
Opuso ell Sr. Crosas.
Levantose el Sr. Brioso y dice,
que el. a pesar de que ha pro-
pnest0 ell aumento de sueldo
para el Director no es partidario
deque sc aumenten a los demas
empleados, pero que no es justo
que aparezcan en- el Departa-

el de Director del Manicomio.

Superb Music Last Night

dence OF Lovers of High Class, Bril-
ManGy Rendered Music.

III G&&f tt@@#& So
abled the audience 70 forget the de.
ficiency or the instrument. Mr.. lis
dale's versatility was made manifest
by selections from many composers.
Nothing was more thoroughly pleas
ing than Chopin's exquisite Impromp-
tn, II sharp major. Many last night
heard the piece played as they, never
heard ii before. Brahms R~hapsodie,
- minor, so full Of color and spirit,
was faultlessly interpreted. A
happy, needless. delightful melody,
yolpe's Yalse-C Caprice was done with
all the grace and abandon that the
piece requires. This selection
deserves TO take Its place as
a standard repertoire piece.
Brilliant. finished, masterful
as Is Mr.. Tisdale's playing,
ideal as his technique. faithful
as his Interpretation, tie best quail
ty Of all Is the individuality which
stamps every selection and colors ev,
cry passage with a hue that adds
brightness, power and charm.
Mr.. James g. McNary sang two
selections during tie evening, Dutn
of which We're much enjoyed. The
first song, For All Eternity, Mascher.
oni, was rendered with violin obi.
cato accompaniment. The second
number. The Mosser, Lynes, called
forth d hearty encore, to which the
gentleman, however did not respond.
Mr.. McNary was In excellent voice
and sang with power, fidelity and
taste.
The concert last night held q pc.
culiar interest and Significance, mr.
ising from the fact that three years
ago. when the three young men were
fellow students in Germany, they
agreed that the first concert in Am
erica iii which Mr.. Persinger and Mr.,
Tisdale appeared, should be in Las
Vegas, and the concert last night
was In fulfillment Of that promise,
The young men have played to en-.
thusiastic houses In the musical cen
tiers Of Europe, but 10 Las Vegans
was given the opportunity OF hsarinf
for the first time on the American
stage two artists whose reputation

may see there an audience which
Is fairly representative OF the cul

city So Il was last night. II
spite Of the rain there was
a fair sized audience and a cul
