PUBLIC FREE LIBRARY NOTES
One of tho most widely read novols of u few
years ago read all too seldom now is Lorna
Doono Blackmoro was not a voluminous
writer Ho wroto nothing else that attained
tho popularity that this book onjoyed Lorna
Doono is worthy of any novelist and ample to
found a reputation on
Tho scene is laid in rural England something
more thun two hundred years ago John Ridd
tho hero of tho talo is tho son of a farmer of
tho better class In tho book which is auto
biographical in stylo John tells us thnt his
father boing a groat admirer of learning and
well ablo to write his name sent his son to bo
schooled at a neighboring town whero in timo
tho son could make bold with Caesar by aid
of an English version und could road as
much as six lines of Ovid Tiio chapters that
doscribo tho school life of that period aro
among tho most interesting To us who live in
these gentler days tho times seom to havo been
savago and brutal yet replete with a sim
plicity that is refreshing
When John was twelvo years old his father
while travoling homo from market one night
was killed by a band of highwaymen tho
Doones who lived a life of outlawry preying
upon wayfarers and then escaping to their
stronghold Tho Dnonos were or noblo bloodi
but had been compelled because of f omo wild
deed of a member of the clan to fleo from civili
zed society and lind shelter among tho hills
They believed their glen to be an impregnable
fortress and felt secure but ono day John still
a boy made his way into it by following tho
courto of a stream that flowed from it For
tunately for him ho was seen only by a littlo
girl Lorna with whom ho became friendlyand
who in tho years that followed ho often visited
Eventually the depredations of the Doones be
coming intolerable they wero hunted out of
their nest and killed It fell to John Ridd to
kill Carver Dooue who was tho murderer of
Johns father The story of their fight is ono of
tho most realistic and horrible descriptions in
fiction In the end John marries Lorna who is
found not to be a Doono at all but ono who as
a child the outlaws had stolen
The story not only because of the theme but
because of the manner of its telling is ono of
deep interest The book too is unique in Eng
lish literature because of its quaint stylo It is
an accurate account of tho life of tho times
From no other source so easily accessible can
wo gain a better impression of how the peoplo
of that day lived In fact its realism is the
chiefest reason for our interest While human
nature is as it has always been still tho cus
toms tho relations in which men stand to ono
another changeand knowledge of how the men
of tho past havo mctdillicultics of a sortsimilar
to those that confront us is useful
Lorna Doone has been dramatized but the
stage version is not wholly satisfactory Tho
book is too full of incidents to render an
abridgement coherent Tho omission of any
portion leaves an ellipsis that is distressingly
noticeable to ono who has read tho story Few
books are better worth reading than this

In the language of the poet Jim Hill
The property is still hero
In his senatorial aspirations Con
gressman Burkett seems to have the
right-of-way so far at least
It is becoming more and more evi
dent each day as the date for the Ke
publican state convention approaches
that there is not sufficient reason for
oven the attempt to turn down Gov
ernor Mickey and that his renomination
will come easily and customarily
Hon W E Andrews has honored
Nebraska in every capacity in which ho
has served her and Nebraska would
honor herself by transferring him to the
senate from tho auditors office where
his highly efficient services have receiv
ed the highest approval of the govern
ment There is no one seeking the
United States senatorship in this state
whoso qualifications of heart and mind
and honorable experience excel those of
tho Littlo Parson
