Laughing in Court Was Checked.

erabie difficulty in understanding the English language and also in express ing himself in it. When some of those in the court room grinned and laughed at his embarrassment the states attorney raised & protest and there was a short verbal passage of arms between the opposing counsel as to who was doing the laughing or gIinning. Judge Greene threw oil on the troubled waters and directed the court officers to see that the audible signs Of amusement were not repeated by anyone in court.

La Ley Mestre

Desde hace d1as esta en- vigor una
ley que ha de aumentar los ingresos del
pueblo de Puerto Rico, pero que dismi-
nuye los de los secretaries de los tribu-
males de justicia.
Es sabido que, anteriormente, al ra-
dlcar una demanda, el abogado ten1a
que depositar en- la secretar1a cierta
cantidad de la que luego eran deduct
dos los gastos del procedimiento, que
dando un sobrante pequeno que, los
letrados dejaban, por 10 regular, a be-
nefcio de los mencionados funcionarios
judiciales.
Ahora, con la ley Mestre, no sobrara
NADIA, porque en- vez de depositar di-
nero Sc lie pegara a la demanda un Sc
llo de 5 dollars, para las Cortes de Dis
trito y un sello de 3, para las Munici-
pales.
El Pueblo de Puerto Rico sc queda-
ra con los sobrantes que antes eran pa
ra los secretarios, aunque veces aeon
tec1a que lejos de recibir NADIA, ell po-
bre secretario lo ten1a que poner to-
do. Porque hay algunos letrados que
no es que sean malas pagas, pero que
Sc olvidan de ciertas deudas. Y hay

horses from Roy Chapin's barn at
Andover. When Chaplin visited his

horses, which had been tied, moving
about in the barn, and two Of them

Hiden had worked for a number of

GERMAN
Celebrates His Fifty-Sixth Birthday
Anniversary.

Berlin, Jan. 2S.-Hundreds of Of
tenders against military rules were
released when the kaiser granted a
general amnesty to those who had
committed ~offenses of this class.
Emperor William ii has the dis
tinction, as he celebrates his seth
birthday, of being more able to WELD
power for good or evil than any ruler
since the first Napoleon. He is con-
coded everywhere to be the central
figure in the war.
He was born on January u, 1853.
His father was Frederick III; his
mother, the Princess Victoria of
Great Britain. When his father died
on June Is, 1888. after a short reign,
the present emperor succeeded to the
throne. He married Princess Vic
toria of Schleswig Holstein, who is
three months older than he, on Feb
ruary 81, 1881. They have seven
children, six princes and one princess.
William III is a many-sided man
With a capacity for hard work and
long hours combined with a mind
quick TO grasp essentials he would
have succeeded in almost any bust
ness or profession. AS an emperor
it is for the future historian to say
whether he is a success or a failure.
Until the war broke out, at least, he
was thoroughly in love with his work
and arose at 5 o'clock In the morning
In order to do as much as possible.
I'VE Ho~henzollerns know nothing
about dressing gowns" is a saying
of his.
His program for each day, for each
week, and for each mouth is always
carefully planned far ahead. OF
course, the war has cut into his ordi-
nary routine; in fact, the death of
the Austrian archduke compelled his
return from Norway, where he al
| ways spent his annual yachting trip.
He Is q prodigious reader and on
his table may be found American,
British and French magazines and
newspapers as well as German. His
~favorite books are those dealing with
history and economics. For recrea-
ton he reads Latin and Greek poetry,
Horace and Homer being his favor
ties.
Today Emperor William stands as
the last Of the great nonarchs-a
sovereign who is more like the
mighty rulers of old than any other
ruler In Europe. with a deep seated
belief in the divine right of kings.

Pierre. Jan. 2S.-The attorney
general holds that the form in which
the question of issuance of $4,000
In bonds for acquiring and construct
ing a municipal electric light plant at
washington Springs vas such that
there sis serious doubt of the legality
Of the election" This situation has
come about because chapter 119 of
the 1913 session laws, for issuance
of bonds, requires that the notice
shall state the purpose for which said
bonds are to be Issued. And In this
case 1t was not made clear whether a
plant was to be purchased or a new
one constructed, or whether the
plant to be secured was to be a COM
bination OF the two methods. Also
the notice of the election was pub
lished more than twenty days before
election, and should have been pub
lished twenty days and not just once.
