S. Kromberg. Maurice Grau's personal representative. spent yesterday in Bir- mingham in consultation with Boyle & Edwards of the Auditorium. touching which Is to take place on the night of October 30
 The contract calls for Lohengrin with Sembrieh in the role of Elsa, and "the usual supporting cast" The contralto principals of the Grau Company are Schumann- Heink, Louise Homer and Carrie Bridewell. but 1t has not been definitely settled which of these great artists will appear here in the role of Ortrud Miss Brldeweil has recently learned the part and MT. Grau says he is confident that she will achieve a triumph in It.
 MT. Kromberg says the orchestra will number over forty. Damrosch will direct Lohengrin and Nahan Franko, the cele- brated violin yirtuoso and symphony con ductor will occupy the concert-meister's s desk.
 MT. Kromberg sent a hundred word telegraphic message to MT. Grau through the Metropolitan opera house office at II o'clock a. m. and at 3;SO p. m. received a cable reply from Paris.
 Grau opens his season on the 7th of Oc- tober in Montreal On the 10th, 11th and 12th he will be In Toronto, where the au- dience will include his royal highness, the Duke of York.

 MT. Kromberg said the 5000 advance sale here was even larger than he expect ed, and it indicated, he thought. Q $65oO or $7000 house. Boyle & Edwards have guaranteed Grau $500, and they have a copper fastened contract which will as- sure the appearance of Sembrich. Their aim all along has been to protect them selves and the opera going public against any hitch or disappointment on that point.
 MT. Grau agreed readily to every stipu- lation concerning Sembrich. but as MT. Kromberg remarked that was an easy matter, for Madame Sembrich was proverbfal for never disappointing the public Calve is the only one of the com pany engaged for this season who is cranky and refuses to appear after being advertised.
 MT. Kromberg went from Birmingham to Atlanta.

LYNN HIT FIRST BLOW

Coroner Paris yesterday Investigated the killing of Will Lynn by P. M. Mooney in the county jail on Friday afternoon, and came to the conclusion that the kill Ing was justifable. Warden Berry of the county jail and the two men whom Moon- ey was showing through the jail at the time he became involved in the fight gave their testimony.
 Warden Henry P. Berry said: 1T was in the Jail office attending to my books. when some one. think MT. Suddith. said Mooney and Lynn were scuffling Inside of the jail I at once went in and found Lynn lying on his back and Virgil and Jack Welmouth. two prisoners. rubbing his face. stopped over him and found him breathing very heavy. told Jack Weimouth to move Lynn over to the east side of the jail, which he did. I went out to my office and got some whiskey and went back and tried 10 get 1t in his mouth, but found that Lynn was about dead. While out in the office teiephoned pr. McAdory. telling him to come at once to the jail, that Lynn was badly hurt. and I also sent word over to the sheriff's office and also notified the coroner. then inquired how the trouble occurred and gave to the coroner list of the witnesses 4o fha d{fr;ouifxy
 Adahoit's Testimony.

 "1 knew Will lynn. and was in the county jail when he was killed. wenk In the jail with MT Berry to see Jim Brown. When we came down stairs. MT. Berry told Mooney to show me through ths white Jail, We went inside, and while there talked to some of the prisoners We moved on, but Mooney turned back ana had some words with Lynn. I could not hear just what was said. When the fight started I ran and did not see 1t. did not sec Mooney kick Lynn nor hear him curse him. I was pretty badly excited. I do not remember telling Mooney not to hit him any more. No one has told me what to swear to, and do not remem- ber any one telling me that Mooney kicked Lynn.
 Hatter's Statement.
 Willie Hatter of East Lake the boy who accompanied Adaholt through the jail, said:
 'I was in the county jaii yesterday when Will Lynn was killed. went In the jail with MT. Adaholt and MT. Moon- ey. heard Will Lynn say O. -. MT. Mooney had told him to get out of the way. He did not move and Mooney walked on. Somebody said something and Mooney came back. Lynn then jumped up and hit Mooney and Mooney grabbed Lynn and showed him against the wall. hitting him on the neck or breast. He then turned him loose and he fell to tho floor. Mooney ran and told Mir Berry to come and see if Lynn was hurt Mooney did not curse Lynn, just asked him to get up. Lynn hit the first lick and hit him pretty hard"

ENTERTAINMENT.
Hyperion Thcafcr.

In Miss Viola Aliens new play "In the Palace of the King" is a scene at the climax of the fifth act that is de- scribed as being particularly thrilling. Philip II. in the scene previous has stabbed Cardinal de Torres. Don John was in the room at the time and, in- deed. it was at him that Philip aimed the blow. Philip compels Don John to assume the guilt on the plea that should it become known that the king had killed the cardinal, the pope would make war upon Spain. Neither Don John nor the king are aware, however, that Don Dolores, Don Johns sweet heart. was hiding in the room during this catastrophe. The secret, however, is known to the audience. In the scene following the stabbing Don John ack- nowledges the crime before the entire court. whereupon Dolores, to the amazement of all, mounts the throne and announces that she was in her lovers bed-chamber when the crime was committed She tells the courtiers that Don John is innocent. but with holds the name Of the true author of the crime. The courtiers and grandees promise to save her sweetheart, and with drawn swords rush upon the king. Miss Aliens speech from the throne is

Grand Onera Housc.

Admirers of old time minstrelsy en- joyed genuine treat at the Grand opera house last evening, when Banta Brothers minstrels held the boards
 This clever company presented an ex- cellent entertainment made up of the regulation first part, olio and closing sl1it in which the entire company are seen. They all display more than or dnary ability and are carefully chosen for their respective parts, the only hitch in their entertainment being slight traces of nervousness with some of the artists, but this will undoubtedly be overcome when they become mole familiar with the footlights. H. E. Button acted as interlocutor, while Messrs. Southerton, Banta, Crocker and Banta were the end men and each seemed very much at ease in their rapid exchange of jokes and witticisms, Some of which were decidedly original and very clever The honors of the first part were about equally divided be- tween F. A. Crocker and A. w. Banta, both receiving repeated encores, to which they gracefully responded, and individual hits were also made by MT. Southerton in his rendition of Chick en-" H. T. King, "The Spider and the Fly" E. F. Strong, "Dinah," H. B.. Brace, Answer and A. B. Skinner, Ma Black Pearl" In the olio are seen Southerton and Banta in short sketch entitled Just a Little Nonsense" and it is a grand experimentation of fun making nonsense, Banta Brothers in a thoroughly up-to-date musical sketch, Clancy and King in Hebrew impersona- tions and jokes. Pickett and Hevrin, hand to-hand balancing and acrobatic comedy, and the Bijou mandolin and guitar club The closing skit, "A Hot Time" served to introduce the entire company in songs, jokes, dancing and all the noise of a full brass band, all of which were thoroughly enjoyed by the large audience.
