CAT AND THE
 FLDDLE' HERE TODAY
Great "Mothcr Goose" Musical EN . tra,aganZa to be the Attraction ;t EIks, Matinee and Night.

ElkS, Matinee and Night.
 The merfF musical extraya@aH2sG ''The Cat and the Fiddle" will be c fered at the Elks Theatcr today ntati- nee and night
 It is astonishing how few bruplc know that many of the Mother Coos rhymes, so familiar in the nursery, were not originally written to amlse the little folks. Take for example the celebrated and familiar legeGd, "The Cat and the Fiddle, it was lirs't written and published to hit at tbe extravaganzes of the nobility and tAe foremost men in politics i'll the reign
 of Elizabeth. The Virgin Queen too, is not spared in the satirical hand ling of the simple little nursery rhyme. It is a matter of history that Elizabeth Court was celebrated both in speech and in living. The plain people looked upon these scenes of festivity as machnations of the devil and dancing especially, was viewed by them as one of the Slyest arts to wean people from the rightful course The eat in those days was looNed up on aS a creature SymbOlical Wltchefaft and evil, and hence as one of the workers of the devils Wiles. In thc lampoon, which our present nursery rhyme really originally was, the Cat also aimed at the person of the Queen herself and was thrust at her vault ing ambition and vanity, as is eX- pressed in her jumping over the moon. The Little Dog, who laughed to see the fun was d bitter thrust Ut the syeo- phaney of the couftiers who .la4aed in attendance at the heels of their sovereign. And the Dish ran with the Spoon, was meant to convey taa result of all this wicked waste and eXtrayaganee, signifyin& that the working people of England would so hungry for porridge, or that porridse dish and spoon would be driven afem the homes of the poor people.
 These lampoons, or nursery tales, took the place of our cartoons of the present day.
 Carleton Lee Colby is the author of i this delightful musical extravaganza. ! and has built an absorbing fun story i around number of gorgeous aud weird stage scenes on the old nur- sery rhyme During it's success the i past three seasons everyone who has | seen the production pronounces it a worthy compeer of the Wizard of | o. and Babes ill Toyland. Pig | folks as well as children gaze with de- 1 lighted interest on the Haunted Cas- tie, the Forest of Demons, The Mys tic Mirror, The Play of the Imps, The | Benevolent Workings of the Isle of !, the Eye. the Mother Goose Doll Rab- ies and fully score of other enchant edscenes, with their quaint and my5- people of a strange and far off world. |
 The tuuefu music of the score and the catching airs of the lyrical nun- bers are said to capture, all who hear them, while the magnificent costumes and the beauty of the large chorus create pictures that are talked of for weeks In brief, the production of The Cat and the Fiddle may be said to furnish one of the most delight ful offerings, of music, fun, magic, stage illusions. gorgeous transforna- tions ant feminine beauty that has been seen on the stage for many a long day.

Congressman Davidson for Revision OF
Necessities of Life-Raps Presi-
dent Roosevelt.

OSHKOSH, Wis, Dec. 2S.-[Special. ]
congressman James II. Davidson, who
is at home for the holidays, will return
to Washington January 1, to attend the
opening session of Congress, January t
In an interview today he stated that the
revision of the tariff will be taken up al
a special session of Congress following
the inauguration of President-eIect Taft
and that the members of Congress are
taking Keen interest on the subject OF
tariff revision. lie says there is no need
or the suggested commission to handle
the revision as the committee in charge
of this matter is composed of experts
who have given the subject careful study
tor years and are thoroughly equipped
for their work.
Congressman Davidson says the effect
the revision of the tariff will have upon
the revenues of the government should
be given important consideration and he
says he will favor any item that will
tend to reduce the cost of living, partic
ularly OF the necessities of life.
Congressman Davidson considers Pres
ident Roosevelt's attack upon Congress
relative to the secret service, as an in.
suit to every member, which ought tc
be resented. He says there was no rea
son for the Presidents wholesale
charges against Congress. He also
states he believes the Presidents mes
sage relative to the Panama canal mat
ter was not as dignifed as it should have
been, coming from the chief executive of
the nation.

Looking like a wild man with n beard
OF many weeks growth. and still wearing
the old working clothes III which he had
probably slept during the night while
watching for the officers, Mulcahy was
brought into court this morning. He
pleaded not guilty and the case was con
unued until January Is. lie was re-
leased on bail OF $1,000, the amount be-
ing paid by his brother.
Yesterday the Milwaukee detactive
who was at Madison on business waS
engaged by the sheriff to go after Null
cahy; The officer entered the barn ana
posed as a tobacco agent. Stephen Mini
cahy was the first to see him. He ran
across to the woods. After making \
VISIT OF inspection the detective got into
his rig and went down the road. When
out of sight, he tied the horse and START
ed back TO the barn on foot. This time
he made his capture but not until he had
hred several shots in the air and warned
Mulcahy that unless he stopped he
would be shot.
