Jacques
VAUDEVILLE.

Aside from the sheer novelty of the act, the '.Spook Minstrels,' which lead the bill at the Jacques this week have other claims to importance in the ro- cal accomplishments of the quintet of soloists which constitutes the conl- pany. There are many performers. both in musical comedy and variety,
 who have the appellation of singers. who would he called many other things if the charity of speech dt,i not interfere. These people secure a certain effectiveness by talking their songs and for the ordinary vaudeville patron this suffices until someone hap peas along who really sings. Then the difference is 90 startling as to br astounding. The boys who stand be hind the picture sheet at the Jacques this week and follow with voice and precision the actions of the tigurss in the moving pictures. are all trained musicians and the harmony they make in the rendition of part songs Is beautiful to hear. Equally good are the solos. which while typseHi minstrel in sentiment. are neyerthe- less degrees above tho latest and most popular songs of the day.

RULING VASTLY IMPORTANT.
Supreme Court Decision stirs so-
 ciety's Depths.

Supreme Court DeclslOn Stlrs S0.
 ciety's Depths.
 NEW YORK, April 1s.Consterna- ton and anxiety have been caused in nll parts of the country by the decision of the United States supreme court in the Haddock divorce case. A large number of divorced persons of high social standing and wealth are affect ed, their remarriages tainted, the legiti- macy of children placed in doubt and vast property rights menaced.
 There was hastening to consult lawyers, who could give little assur- ance until the full text of the decision is studied. It will be several days un- til the courts opinion is printed, and until then there will continue most embarrassing state of matrimonial un- certainty.
 The main point decided by the court Is that of matrimonial domicile or the place of residence of the parties to the divorce. From the extracts already printed interested lawyers draw the following deductions:
 A divorce to be universally legal must be obtained in the state where there was marital domicile-that is, where husband and wife lived together.
 The open question to be determined only from the full text of the courts opinion relates to the appearance of the defendant i'll the court. It seems fully determined that If in another state there is notice of the action served on the defendant only by pub lication and he does not enter an ap- pearance the judgment will not stand.
 Lawyers differ as to the legality of decree obtained in another state when the defendant had been served and put in an appearance.
 Vastly important questions of legali- ty of remarriages, of legitimacy of children and of property rights depend upon the minute analysis of the de cisiOn.
 Among the most notable cases dis cussed was that of Mrs. Mamie Lang horne Shaw, who is soon to marry young Waldorf Astor. Society won ders whether the marriage to Mir. As tor will now take place.
 Another striking case is that of Mrs. Flora Bigelow Dodge, who went to South Dakota and there obtained de- cree, although that state never had been a marital domicile for herself and husband Since then she has married the Hon. Lionel Guest of England.
 The present Mrs. W. B. Leeds, wife of the plate millionaire, formerly was Mrs. NOnnie Worthington of Cleve- land. She went to South Dakota and obtained her freedom.
 The present Mrs. William T. Bull obtained divorce from James G. Blaine, Jr., in Dakota.
