what is a Puerbo Rscanp

The United States has just helped us along little way by deciding not what the Puerto Rican is. but what he isn't. He isn't an alien. That does not imply, however. as one might think. that he is a citizen. The court expressly guards itself against any such inference. It leaves the more weighty question as to what a Puerto Rican actually is for fur ther determination when the issue is le- gally drawn before it.

HE WANTS A DIVORCE.
Head orleans-Bourbon House Anxs
 ious for Another Wife.

Vienna, Jan. 15.-Allgemeine zeituna says that Duke Phillip of Orleans is seek ing a divorce and that he has petitioned the Curia for a dispensation to enable him to marry the daughter of a great Aus trian nobleman.
 The paper asserts that the Duke com suited the leading members of the royalist party last summer and informed them of his intentions, giving as a reason that his present union was childless and that he desired to continue the royal line. The royalists endeavored to dissuade the Duke from taking the action he proposed and pointed out to him that his divorce and remarriage would scandalize Catholic circles in France, the chief supporters of the royalist cause. It at first appeared that the Duke acquiesced in the wishes of his followers, but he now renews his request to the Curia, urging the nullin- cation of his marriage on the ground that he was forced into the union. The noble woman which the Duke desires to marry is not named in the Allgemeine Zeitung'S statement. but she is described as a princess, a brilliant violinst and one of the most fascinating figures in viennese society.
 The Archduchess has repeatedly tried to induce the Duke to live as a more con- sistent claimant to the throne of France. It is said that the development of tho case will depend on the decision of the Curia.
 Duke Louis Phillip Robert, head of the Bourbon-Orleans house, married in 1896 the Archduchess Marie Dorothea of Aus tria. The woman whom the Duke de- sires to marry is said to be Princess Clementine, daughter of Pauline, Princess of Metternich-Sandor

WON GREAT
VICTORY, IT IS SAID

WASHINGTON, April 30.-Reports have
reached the State Department, the sources
of which the officials do not care to divulge,
10 the effect that a great battle has been
fought on the Yalu river, resulting in
complete japanese victory.

scene OF the japanese crossing of the Yalu

churian side of the river, which 1t is re-
ported was finally captured by the Japa-
nese The date of the battle is stated to
have been last Tuesday and the delay In
receiving the news. is. ascribed to the alb
sence of telegraph facilities in this remote
quarter of Manchuria
The japanese legation here has no news
confirming these reports, but the matter
has aroused intense interest in official cir
cles Reports which have from time TO
time reached the Washington government
from its agent in the field indicate that the
two great armies would not come in touch
before May 1 and that what has hereto
fore occurred was nothing more than mere
outpost skirmishes- and collisions between
scouting parties. 1t is believed now, how
ever, that the weather conditions In Man
churia have improved sufficiently to facili
tate the movements of troops and artillery
and that the two vanguards have conse
quentIy come together a few days in ad
