Goose II you came down here?'
"Why don't you come -in?" asked
Madam Goose. you will find the door
unlocked. I think. go right in and
will be down"
Mr.. Fox was SO completely surprised
by this invitation that he did not stop
to think. as he usually did. but tried the
door and sure enough 1t opened.
He stepped in and then before he

himself in the cellar on his back.
He made such a racket that all the
little gosltns jumped out Of bed.
"Oh! mother. dear. what has hap

Hush! hush" said their mother.

Madame Goose went softly downstairs
and looked about. Right in front Of the
door was a hole in the floor, and
! Madam Goose tip-toed to the edge of it
and looked down into the cellar.
Mr.. Fox was sitting up. rubbing his
head.
Are you hurt?" asked Madam Goose
when she was sure she was safe.
Mr.. Fox looked up. Il am almost
killed." he said. You should keep
your floors in better repair, Madam
Goose. Perhaps you will be kind
enough to tell me how 1 can get out
of here. do not see any stair"
You will have to get out the way
you got in," said Madam Goose. "that
board is always loose. but 1t is plenty
strong enough to hold me or anyone
who should come In here. You are
caught. Mr.. Fox. and by a goose. too:
think it over while I call Mr.. Dog.
He has been waiting to catch Won all

Off ran Madam Goose to tell the dog
and Mr.. Fox knew that his minutes
were numbered.

For The Times Children
Just Before It's Bedtime
HOW MR.. FOX WAS CAUGHT.

TT had been a hard winter for Mr..
Fox. He had not found 1t easy to
enter the barnyard OF the farmer on
the hill on account OF the big watch
dog, who seemed to sleep with one eye
open and always saw Mr.. Fox creeping
over the hill. So when spring came
Mr.. Fox was far from being in the con-
dition he liked to be. and. besides that.
he was hungry.
Under the hill not far from the farm
house lived Madam Goose and her ten
little goslins. The house had been well
locked at night all the winter. but now
it was warmer. Mr.. Fox wondered II
she might not have window open, or
perhaps the door might not be 30 tight
ly closed. ---
II believe I will pay my respects to
Madam Goose he said one night. Il
have never seen her goslins. and fear
she may feel that have slighted her.
I have called several times on Mrs.
Brown Hen and the others who have
new broods, and II she heard about my
calls she would. of course, feel hurt II
passed by her door" ... ..a-.
Mr.. Fox Strengthened his collar and
put on his high hat, then he took his
for the home Of Madam Goose.
That looks to- me like Mr.. Fox com.
ing over the hill,'' said Madame Goose
to herself. She was looking out Of her
window just before going to bed and
saw the top OF Mr.. Fox's high hat.
Madame Goose blew out the light and
tucked the clothes more snugly around
her ten little goslins; then she ran
downstairs and made sure the windows
were fastened. Then Madame Goose
went to the door and did a very strange
thing-she unlocked the door.
He thinks he is a very smart fellow
she said to herself as she went up the
stairs again: but he may find out to-
night that have a few ideas of my own
II he comes too near that door,"
Mr.. Fox did come close to the door.
He walked boldly up to 1t and knocked
twice with his cane; Of course, he did
not try 1t. he was far too polite to do
that until he had knocked.
Madame Goose put her head out of
the upper window. WHO is there?" she
asked
Good evening. dear Madame Goose"
said Mr.. Fox. lifting his high hat. II
came to pay my respects. I have been
so busy this winter that I could not
attend to all my social duties.
Il also heard that your goslins were
the very handsomest that had been
seen around here in many years. and I
feel quite ashamed of myself for not
calling to see them before this"
you are quite right. Mr.. FOX; my
little ones are as nice and plump as
any goslins ever saw. II I do say IT
myself. but you must know that at this
hour any wise mother would have put
her children in bed hours ago.
"You are most kind to call, but II
you wish to see my handsome. plump
goslins you must call again in the
daytime. Mr.. Fox
Il am sorry I did not get around
sooner" said Mr.. Fox, scratching his
head and wondering what excuse he
could make to get into the house.

Shenandoah" To Be
Reproduced On Films.
Another pair Of notable films are to
be released this week. The first is
Bronson Howard's play which has
charmed two generations Of theater-
goers. Shenandoah" which has been
adapted for picture use. Ono thousand
men take part in the sensational battle
Of Winchester. the usual army Of supes
having been augmented by several COM
panies of State militia.
Sheridan's historic ride was produced
in the authentic locations in Virginia,
and the bombardment OF Sumpter was
made before that famous fort In the

Bull Fight Pictures
Are Second Attraction. =
The other film, of almost equal inter-
est, Is that Of a bull fight which Is re-
leased today. Bull fights In motion pic
lures have never been popular because
Of the apparent anxiety of their produc-
ers to give such considerable proni-
nence to gruesome details. To get a
bullfight without the inhuman spectacle
Of wounded horses and tortured, bulls,
the Pathe Company dispatched an oper-
ator to Les Landes, France, to photo
graph a bullfight in which no weapons
were used. and no horses employed.
The matadors, picadors. and toreadors
depended entirely upon their agility &c
avoid the rushes of the maddened bull,
and the result Is one of the most hair
raising films ever released, and at the
same time. one that will not give offense,

Lynch Takes a Hand
In Fultz Controversy

NEW YORK, Nov. 1O.-Under Ger
ain conditions David L. Fultz will
receive a hearing before the National
Commission as president Of the Base
ball Players Fraternity when the
players demand for changes in con
tract terms are presented, according
to President Lynch, of the National
League. Although Chairman Herr
mann, of the commission, some time
ago declared Fultz as an outsider"
would not be received as the mems
representative. President Lynch ex-
pressed a different view last night.
The demands framed by Fultz in
behalf Of the fraternity are not I'M
fair, taking them as a whole" said
Mr.. Lynch. and l believe that every
thing can be adjusted satisfactorily il
the fraternity will send a committee
Of players to confer vita the commits
sion If kultz is a member of that
committee ! see no reason why he
should not be heard, for in general
discussion the players themselves win
learn first hand what the commission
is willing to do"
