"Broken Lives," by Judge
^'TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MATT,
"BROKEN LIVES."
Cyrus F,
McNutt, is now published and on the market in a cheap form, and should have many readers. The book is likely to create somewhat of a sensation. Its literary merits are better than any performance hitherto by a citizen of Terre Haute. #&§s
For purpose of comment, the book may be considered in two parts, the first part comprising Book 1 of the story^and part second the three remaining books. The reader will find these two parts to differ widely. In the first part the mind of the reader will constantly be comparing the experiences of Felix Munro, the hero, with the reader's own experiences. To the thousands of both men and women -who were bem in the country and have come to the city to live this Book 1 will give great pleasure. It will review their own demotions and susceptibilities. The country' neighborhood with its one mysterious family, the deep woods with its hurricane" track, the old settlers fear and talk of "catamount" or "panther," the old fashioned school house with its "master" and loves of boys and girls, the forest, the creeks, the sunlight, the long-legged, half-witted fellow astride a pony, the terriffic storm and the deep darkness of a night in the pathless forest—recall the past, the dear past of youth to almost every Western reader.
Nothing can be more exquisite than the confession of Felix Munro about his feelings on leaving home and mother, and approaching the city. "Mammy, the harvest is over and the remaining work does not need my hands—" ^Yes, Felix, I know. You must leave me!" "But how did ybu know it, mother? I have never mentioned my purpose to a living soul." "Oh, I have known it from the way you would at times look atme!''
Felix leaves home to teach a country school, and goes out of his way to avoid passing through the capital of our State. He stands in awe of a city and his clothes are of "brown tweed." Bashful country boy! Later he comes to Terra Alta and surprise fills him at sight of "close fitting trousers, low cut vests, glossy shirt fronts, and handsome hats." He notices everybody and discovers that the "happy young city folks passed him by without so much as looking at him." How foolish in him a year ago to avoid the Capital! His "first love" with whom he spent a night in the dark forest when both were children and lost now lives in Terra Alta with her rich uncle in a grand mansion—Felix has not the heart to approach such a house. When a lawn party is in progress, he walks up and down in the shadow of trees. Elsie by chance comes near his concealment. Involuntarily he exclaiirs, "Elsie." "As a fawn upon its native hill when it suddenly hears the bay of the hound, stops in midstep with uplifted foot, so stayed Elsie's retreating figure." Then follows a literary gem. Felix steals from the shadows of the great trees and disappears. This is all delicate and beautiful, the work of an artist.
Part second of the book'is a thrilling story. It is dreadful, deals with insanity and emotions that almost rack the brain of the reader. Many readers will like this Gorgon terror but to the Mail's reviewer the exquisite and delicate touches bring tho greatest admiration for our author. There is so much in the book, both of the terrible and the delicate that no short review can deal justly with such a sustained and thrilling
St0ry*
