Atlanta CITY,

There was no "Grand Duchess per-
formance at the Virginia Opera Garden at
Atlantic City last Saturday night, and the
Philadelphia Pres thus explains it; The
lights are out and the scenery gone. Gen.
Boum and Fritz, Messrs. Wheeler and
Hardy heard of the trouble this morning
about the same time as the Duchess, Ethel
Lynton. The trouble may be said to have
begun when the place was leased by Mr..
Kaufman, OF Washington, for the National
Opera Company. lie signed 81, 400 rental
lease for the season closing Oct. l. Mana.
ger Strasburger came on after a payment OF
$500 had been made, only to find that all
the stage effects were advertised for sale
by the sheriff to meet mechanics liens.
He consulted q lawyer, and II was
finally arranged, with Proprietor Ken
dricks's consent, that the regular In
stallments Of rent should be paid against
their claims. This had been done, and
only few dollars of the latter remained.
But the salaries and other expenses here
run on TO some extent, and then, 1t is
whispered a scandal led to additional
trouble. Wednesday night Mr.. Hendricks
turned off the gas before the performance
began. Manager Strasburger had II turned
on again. Last night the garden had It's
biggest audience OF the season, with indi-
cations Of good business for the remainder
of the month. The scenery, however, was
removed to-day, and, II is claimed, cannot
be attached as 1t is the personal property
OF Mr.. Strasburger, who cannot be held for
the rcntal-about 5000 being due on other
debts-he being only the agent OF Mr..
Kaufman. The former cannot be seen;
sending word to inqureIs that he is i'll.
Meanwhile, the Grand Duchess, Gen. Boum,
and Fritz are out, but the two latter say,
referring to their unpaid salaries, It will be
all right.
