Ann Arbor Boys Cause Small Riot.
Some Hurt and Arrested.
Ann Arbor. Mich. Jan. 2S.--As a result
of free fight in and near the Ann Aroor
opera house last night four students of
the University of Michigan are in Jail
on charge of dsorderly conduct and it
is expected that more arrests will be made
tomorrow.
The Minnie Lewis company, which, it is
said. figured in a recent student riot at
Madison, Wis. played at the opera house
last night and the audience was mainly
made up of students. The moment the
curtain went up the students began
hooting and making coarse remarks, Gre
| ating such disturbance that many in
the audience were forced to go out.
The manager of the company bore this
patiently for an hour and then he or
dered the performance to cease, fearing
that the theater would be damaged, or
the members of the company injured.
When the curtain was rung down the
students assembled at the stage door,
waiting for the performers to appear.
They finally began throwing stones at the
building. The stage hands, armed with
slungshots. attacked the students and for
a few moments the fighting was furious.
Six or seven students were knocked
senseleSS.
When the police attempted to quell the
disturbance Marshal Sweet and his men
were attacked by the students. Nearly
every window in the theater was broken
