THE SECRET OF FIONA MACLEOD.

we are told by THE London Academy that
Miss Fiona Macleod has had 10 make extraor-
binary efforts to maintain the secret Of her per-
sonality
Miss Macleod's letters have to be re-
addressed three or four times before they come
into her hands. She is known to q small circle
who keep the secret WELL her forcibe hand
writing is known to many. No editor has man
aged to get her photograph. though one had it
in his hands. We doubt if Miss Macleods pub
fishers have met her. At first Mr.. William Sharp
did a good deal OF her business work but she
euperntends ii herself now. The mystery as to
her identity Is not one that will arouse the sus-
picion OF the literary. but certain Gaels, whose
dislike for Miss Maceod's work amounts to a
passion, have sought assduously to force her to
reveal her personality. Every sort Of criticism
except that which is literary has been applied
TO her work: one ardent Gael turned up the
files OF a Glasgow paper to IL any of the
tragedies Miss Macleod depicts actually oc-
CURED. another took a census Of Iona-no diffi-
cult task-to discover the originals Of her char
acfers. 1t Is startling TO learn that their re-
searches were unavaing. Still another Gael Is
said To- have done detective duty opposite
house in Edinburgh where Miss Macleod Some
times stays. and Miss Macleod Is as unknown
ever.
To the mere American the lady's literary per-
formances seem hardly important enough 10
