LYCEUM THEATRE.

Childhood's Rhyms and Legends in
The Cat and The Fiddle" How
like the strains of an old familiar
song or the voice of a friend from
far away come to us the lines OF that
old childhood verse:
'High-diddle diddle! The Cats in the
Fiddle!
The Cow jumped over the Moon!
The little dog laughed to see such
sport,
And the DISH ran away with the
spoon.
We, whose weary way-bruised feet
have troddon the gray old road OF
daily life, beaten down and trampled
by myriad hurting feet, with it's clods
of commonplace and it's sitting dust
of realism, at the magic sound of
that lullaby, we turn back, wooed by
it's spell into that land of flowers and
sunshine, that fairy land our child
hood.
This beautiful manual fantasy
comes to the Lyceum Thursday after
noon to close the week.
George Sidney, the clever little
Jewish comedian and his big company
will be at the Lyceum for four days
commencing Thursday afternoon. The
title of Sidney's offering this season
is Busy Izzy, the Mazuma Man." a
refreshing and captivating musical
comedy of the highest order. None
of the ordinary will be found in this
musical conceit-all is pure fun, re-
fined frolic, catchy songs, quick rapid
fire comedy, embellished with pretty
girls, handsome gowns, bright scenery
and pretentious musical numbers.
There are many big musical numbers
and among the latest are: That's
What My Organ Plays" "Mazuma, +"
"Aroun The Town." Under the Ma
yuma Tree" When the Circus Comes
to Town." Memo and His Bear"
ZOO Loo" my Sweet" "The Circus
Queen"
Each member is specially and
handsomely gowned, therefore re-
quiring many changes Of costumes.

The morning after his arrival,

Alma Tadema turned in his gold
