The authors of "Doubloons" are probably
under the impression that they have given their
readers but one problem to solve. the problem
on which their plot hinges. But there is
greater mystery in the book. Just what share
did Mr.. Phillpotts have in it's composition? That
is the puzzle which has interested us, from the
start, almost much the definitely set
for the sharpening of the readers wits. We
have long known Mr.. Phillpotts as a writer of
rustic romances. Never have known him in
vein even approaching that of "Douboons"
and having finished the book and turned back
to the title page, wonder again at the
presence of his name. The story Is precisely
what we would have expected of Mr. Arnold
Bennett, writing the author of 1.-THE Grand
Babylon Hotel" 1t begins with the hero stroll
Ing down London street with his last sixpence
In his pocket. Presently it is made plain that
old sea captain has been murdered. His body
is dug up out Of a sewer. What has this to do
with our sixpenny hero? Everything. The
murder creates a situation in which he Is
promptly involved and. though this not
enough, there soon are implicated in the affair
at least half a dozen types of the most varied
character The tale moves with the briskneSS
OF farce and with something of farcical gayety
The authors give their fancy free play. Each
chapter brings something new the plot steadily
grows darker and more tangled. and the odd
thing is, that while surprise is piled upon sur
prise, there is little in the book that is des-
perately improbable. Extravagant as it is,
"Doubloons" nevertheless holds together. Some
where in the background the authors keep a
sense of proportion. 1t tells, even in the por-
traiture of their great criminal, a murderer who
uses the adroitness of an artist in his extraor-
dnary transactions. This is an amusing vol
ume, and it has one peculiar merit Where most
stories of the kind are apt to disclose slacken-
ing of the inventive faculty the end is ap-
preached, this one maintains it's interest un-
dmmed. More than that, the climax, when it
comes, turns out 10 be not only good one but
the last in the world which the reader might
looms
By contrast THE Slave of Silence" seems
very crude. In this. too, have to reckon
with illimitable rascaty, and curiosity is reused
as to just who is at the bottom of certain mys-
terious and dreadful occurrences. Curiosity is
kept alive through good part of the narrative
But after while the authors ingenuity seems
to fail him. and by the time he has written his
last chapter he has proved himself both amusing
and wearisome. Indications of tremendous perils
are followed by incidents that fail to satisfy the
expectations aroused. Mr.. White is inadequate,
too, in Characterization His figures excite little
sympathy. This is just average contribution
to the fiction of crime and mystery.
