A LOCAL LITTERATEUR,
Review of " A Squire of Low De-
gree" by Miss Long.

Considerable interest was aroused in local
literary circles by late announcement of the
Appletons of a forthcoming novel, entitled
"a Squire OF Low Degree by Miss Lily A.
Long, of st. Raul. Now the book is here and
we may all sit with the professional critics at
its judgment. The plot is not at all intricate,
and this simplicity is one of its chief merits.
Harry Marlborough, the Prince Hal of the
story, finds Alec Macdonald, country lad,
toiling at his pillow. Alec is the principal
hero of the story, the Squire of Low Degree"
Harry possesses very sanguine tempera-
ment; that is to say. his impulses are quick,
his imagination vivid. his judgments almost
spontaneous and finding always immediate
expression in action. Alec is sturdy. proud.
ambitious, but FESTIVE under the restraints
of circumstance. Harry generously, but half
whimsically, takes upon himself the burden
OF Alec education. and makes his purpose
known to his aristoeratic father and mother
who demur, and his sympathetic sister Dor
othy, who aids him in carrying out his plan.
Upon graduation from college and at his
majority, Harry plunges recklesSly into bust
ness speculations. Later, when overwhelmed
with disaster, and just as Alec, who in turn
has graduated from college, becomes his
partner, Harry in successful attempt to save
Aces life sacrifices his own. Immediately
after this Alec discovers that Harry has been
an embeZzier. and commits forgery to keep
the dead friends name untarnished before
questionably heroic act of the Squire
the incidents of the story center
1t is an act not probable in real life: but IL is
possible. and as such subseryes the mr.
poses of a true art. There are, of course, in
this, as in any other book. some verbal in
elegancles: nut they are mole than offset by
unique, almost epigramatic ap.ness of ex-
preston, and sparkling fancy that seldom
offends by its exuberance. Much of the au-
thors strength. likewise her greatest weak
ness,is in delineation of individual character.
Her chief actors. are full Of paradoxes. To

was insane at the time of the homicide
They examined his head and observed his
actions, and expressed the opinion that he
h ad been suffering from mania for many
years. William NoTdman was recalled and
testified that at the time he had seen Kill act
Ing strangely he was not drunk. The after
noon was taken up by the state in adducing
its testimony in rehuttal. F..W. Kinney E.
Dora Fischer, William Esch and Lena
Fischer stated that in conversations had
with Kill he talked in rational manner. but
admitted that he seemed eccentric.
The stale then put Drs. Justus O'HAge, W.
A. Jones, A. B. Ancker. j. ii. Murphy and
J. H. Stewart on the stand as expert wit
nesses. They each expressed the. opin-
a2n tDe that ,m XII was the not nord insane
Those of them who had not heard all the
testimony had it stated to them in substance
by, Mr.. Num-. with suggestions from Mr.
Schrelber. They each declared that the
facts did not indicate that Kill did not know
right from wron g. or was not responsible tor
his actions at the time of the homicide.
They all admitted upon crOss-eXamiDation
that they had not examined bis head to see
the wounds made by the kick of the horse
They stated that the fracture of the skull, the
sunstroke, and trouble in his family were
sufficient to canse insanity. Several of the
physicians for the state admitted on cross
examination that he was man of very in
ferior intellect, and was not far from the
line OF insanity at any time. One or two
of them frankly admitted that he
has type of insanity. Several of the phys-
clans also admitted that knowing of his in
juries on the head, having a sunstroke and
family trouble, it would influence them in
deciding as to his insanity. All the physicians
for the state admitted, upon cross-examine-
ton, that several elements in his life and
habits indicated insanity. DR.. Jones said
that cunning is often found strongly marked
in insane people. DR.. Ancker expressed the
opinion that he was not suffering with acute
mania at the time of the homicide, but ad-
mitted upon cross-eXamination that he might
have been suffering with chronic insanity at
that time, and that there are a great many
indications of insanity i'll the case,
DIR. Murphy stated he had low grade of
intellect and does not have far to go to be
crazy. He also admitted that he had stated
in conversing of the case that the man is not
fit to go at large and thought the state ought
TO provide hospital for insane murderers
He expressed The opinion that Kill is a lazy
drunken TONER
DR.. Stewart, an Oculist, examined Kills
eyes three years ago TO ascertain if they indi-
Gated insanity, and expressed the opinion
that they did not. He admitted, upon cross
examination, that that was not the only test
The state had no more evidence to offer and
the defense rested.
The jury was cautioned not to allow any
one to discuss the case in their presence and
not to read anything in the newspapers about
the case and to return into court Monday
morning at 10 o'clock
