'BANJOETS A RIOT
AT STAR THEATRE
Act Bad; Start Bad; Lights
Out; Crowd Hurt;
Ten DAYS.

Few movies ever filmed furnished
more concentrated thrills and action
than did Jonn Lee and William arm,
banjoists, in their debut upon the stage
Of the Star Theatre, 10th Street and
Lexington Avenue. last night in a not
particularly refined vaudeville act.
Upon these two, Meyer Solomon, man.
sger Of the theatre, had bestowed the
honor of opening the vaudeville bill for
the evening. Lee and Arm opened
calmly enough, but the climax OF their
act was riot in which several women
and children were trampled. Sand
wiched in between the entrance and
exit Of the team, there was a fist fight
with the manager, assault and battery
OK a policeman, a battle royal and
panic.
The team had been on the stage only
n few moments when Mr.. Solomon dis
covered that the jokes which they were
introducing into the act were bringing
the blush of shame 20 ,his cheek. From
the wings he advised them 20 remem-
Der Comstock, whereupOn, according 70
&Se manager, the jests became even
more trustworthy. The footlights were
switched off, but the act continued.
After sending a messenger out Tor
the police Mr. Solomon strobe out upon
the stage and attempted TO escort Lee
off. The actor refused to be ousted, and
grappled with the manager. 1hey
rolled over and over in conflict IN
which mayhem was minor orence'
while Arm howled encouragement e,
his partner and the audience cheered
wildly, acclaiming the act knock
out. It had nearly reached thi, state
when Patrolmen Casper and Price ad-
yanced to the support Of Mr.. Solomon;
Then Arm rose in his wrath, grasped
his trusty banjo and smote Casper In
the face, breaking the Instrument ana
the policeman's nose simultaneously
The struggle Was at its height when
some one turned out all the light a
panic swept the crowd. and II rushed
blindly toward the exits. In tie con-
fusion women and children were
knocked down and stepped on, although
no one was seriously hurt.
When the lights were turned on
again they shone upon an empty hall
and a stage occupied by the manager
and the two policemen, all a little the
worse for wear. seated upon the forms
of the two entertainers.
Later Lee and Arm were arraigned
in the night court, where Magistrate
Levy sentenced them TO the workhouse
for ten days.
