RECEIVERS MONEY
FOR SHOW TICKETS
Suit of n. E. Groves Against Opera
House Management for So De
cided in His Favor.

Magistrate NJ. S. Riley handed
down decision in civil case Thurs
day morning that is Of interest to
local theatregoers. The case was a
suit against the management of the
Grand opera house for the recovery
of $500 paid for two admission and
seat tickets for the performance of
THE Prince Chap" last week. insti-
tuted by R. E. Groves. and the de-
cision was in favor of the plaintiff.
AS will be remembered by the
readers of the Telegram, "The Prince
Chap" theatrical company had
Considerable Trouble
in reaching Clarksburg on account of
the crippled condition of the rail-
roads, due to the floods, in time to
fill its engagement. The company was
booked for appearance but late in
the afternoon of the scheduled day it
became apparent that the company,
would not arrive in the city on time
'apd announcement was made that
the repertoire company that was fill-
Ing weeks engagement at the opera
houaa would give a performance in
stead. An advertising wagon bear
ing notices for the repertoire COM
pany was sent out on the streets.
After supper time Manager Robinson
Received Telegram
from "The Prince Chap" company
stating it would be in at 1880 o'clock
and would fill the engagement. An
other announcement was sent out to
this effect and "The Prince Chap"
was presented.
Mr.. Groves bought two tickets for
THE Prince Chap" but when inform
ed that 1t would not be presented he
did not go to the opera house and
the next day he went to the box Of
fee and asked that his money for the
tickets be refunded which was re-
fused on the ground that the
Management Had Settled
with the theatrical company for the
tickets the night before. Money had
been refunded to other ticyet pur-
chasers the evening before when 1t
was thought the performance would
not be given. The magistrate held
that as Mr.. Groves had been inform
ed by advertisement that the COM
pany would not play and had not
been informed later that it would, he
was entitled to the recovery of the
money paid for the tickets.
Notice Should Be Posted.
1t has been the rule at the opera
house, and the rule is generally OBJ
served by opera houses. to refund
money for tickets until settlement is
made with the theatrical company
but not after that time. If notice
had been posted to that effect by he
opera house management Mr.. Groves
could not have recovered the money
paid for the tickets. It is likely
that the opera house management
will post notice of this kind so
there will be no misunderstanding in
the matter in the future.
