One of the distinguished personages now in the United States is Dr. Doyle|Dr. A. Conan Doyle, the famous English novelist. He came to fill a lecture engagement, and will probably remain a couple of months. Dr. Doyle is a London physician, whose readers have forbidden him to heal people, that he may write books for them to read. Novel writing was originally merely a diversion with him, but, as often happens, it grew into a serious occupation. Among detective story writers in English, Dr. Doyle easily stands at the head. His first success was "Micah Clarke," and his last "The Refugees." In appearance he is tall, broad-shouldered, bronzed and robust. He is very fond of athletic sports, his love of the wheel amounting almost to a passion and he is never happier, it is said, than when on a tandem with his wife and starting for a thirty-mile spin.
