NEVADA DIVORCES ILLEGAL.

The United States Supreme Court
has just rendered decision that in
effect nullifes Dakota and Nevada
divorces II decides that colorado
residence will not do. The appli-
cant must not be PERMITTED to get
around the law by IN indirection.
He must take up residence with a
bonatide intention of becoming a
permanent citizen of the State. If
he leaves the moment he has secured
a divorce the implication is that he
never intended to become citizen
of the place, and in that case the
State never acquired jurisdiction
over his martial affairs That knocks
on the head great many California
marriages made at either Reno or
Carson City, and leaves such people
as have married since, and their
name is legion, under the unpleasant
situation OF being bigamists. How
they are to relieve themselves of the
odium they have incurred it is diff
cult to see. Probably most of them
will do nothing and let things go
at that. But that course may prove
fruitful of future trouble. Property
rights would unquestionably become
involved, to say nothing of the loss
of social standing of the parties.
Perhaps the best remedy would be
to begin divorce proceedings over
again in regular and legal way.
The Supreme Courts decision is far
reaching, and renders the divorces
obtained in not a few states of ques-
tionable legality. Nevada and
Dakota are the most notorious wrong
doers, but there are others not much
better. If the discussion of the
question should give vitality to the
movement in favor of uniform
Federal divorce law for all the States
that will in part atone for the shock
ingly muddled condition of affairs.
1t is not creditable to highly civil
lized nation that the legality of its
marriage should remain in doubt,
or that they may be so easily sund-
cred as is at present the case in all |
too many Of our States IS. F. News

LoNGWooD TENNIS TOURNEY.
Ward and Ware Won Eastern Cham
pionship in Doubles.

Fair weather greeted the tennis players
yesterday in the Longwood. Mass, tourna-
ment. In the morning the finals In the
eastern double championships were played
between Ward and Ware and Holt and
Merrill. The former team Won as was ex-
pected, yet their opponents made them play
for every point Holt put up a fine game.
High overhead smashes won many points
for his side. On the other hand Merrill
proved extremely weak at critical stages
and lost at least one set by poor playing.
Ward and Ware played indifrerently
On the whole the match was not what
one would look for in the finals OF so i'm
portant event This was due to the draw,
all the good teams being in the lower half.
Ward and Ware will now play the winners
of the western championship. now being
held at Chicago. probably on Tuesday, Au-
gust 49, The winner of this match will
challenge the Doherty brothers. the present
American champions. for the American
championship.
In the afternoon the two matches. the
semi final round between Ward and Wright
and Larned and George Wrenn, drew a
large gallery to the Longwood grounds
Larned had no trouble in beating George
Wrenn. In fact. 1t is doubtful If the cham
pion sxerted himself to any marked degree
as he hardly ever ran in on his service be-
ing content to remain in the back court
where he would invariably play Wrenns
weak ground strokes down the side lines.
Ward gave conclusive proof that he
should have been Larned's mate in the in
ternatonals. HIS game was not only
steady but at critical stages very brilliant
Wright WAS unable to play Wards service
Ward came to the net at every opportun1-
ty. His volleying was excellent and stamp
ed him as the best volleysr in America to-
day. Wright though outplayed. tried his
best to turn defeat into victory, but he was
playing against a game second to none in
this country.
