handed II 10 him already.
Gabriel went aboard the vessel At

ENans steamed into New York harbor
to-day.
When <hs Trsnoh equivalent for AN
eshort that's going ashore" was sung
eaho~s that's going ashore was sung
out at Havre. Gabriel did not respond.
BY that time he had glanced over the
second class passenger list and had
picked out for his own . large, unoo-
cupied stateroom. Gabriel was one Of
che nrst At table for the fret meal Of
tho voyage and he kept up the record
for several days. He was a cheerful soul
and. In his search for consenial spirits,
acquired considerable popularity in the
second cabin.
Gabriel had . way with tho ladies'
too. There was the second maid of
Madame. who had an expensive suite
In the FIRST cabin and she fell under
the spell Of the immaculate Gabriel
She ceased then to benoan the fate
which had put her among the bour-
geois. for indeed here was q man Of
noble birth. undoubtedly. travelling in
coanito. She accused Gabriel OF this
and he blushed. But he did not deny.
The rumor spread through the cabin
that he was a man OF standing and
the stewards went out OF their way
to favor him. thinking Of surprising.
unexpected largess at the end of the
=. voyage which should not be surpris-
sing nor unexpected at all.
For the first few days of the trip
the purser was visibiy worried. Time
and again he wandered about the ship,
counting noses. One by ono he called
tho second class passengers into a pri-
vate conference and quizzed them. The
last to be cross-exa;nined was Gabriel
Every one else had been able to po,n,
out their particular name on the pur.
ser's list and show in other ways tina,
their passage had been honorably con-
tracted for.

ExAcTING.

when the purser suggested that he Nigh,
have neglected to purchase his passa ;e
You are ridiculous. too. and 1 must re-
fuse to discuss this affair with you"
Wathout delay the purser proceeded
10 live Up to the character given to him
b. Gabriel. He moved that young gen.
Seman from his comfortable stateroom
10 the iasarst. which Is the ship :
Prison And then-but no! 1t 10 too
horrible: II Is monstrous. the act OF a
fend-this rude. ridiculous purser dug
up from the hold another who had
started without the equipment of q
stowaway de luxe. This person was
Lucien Guillermet. a Swiss. one who
had worked with his hands. He was
dirty from his days of intimate contact
with the cargo In the bowels OF the
ship. and not at all debonair. And into
the lazaret. which IL not as large as the
prison ashore-not by any means-they
put Lucien Guillermet!
Gabriel sent an indignant message Ia
the captain. saying that he was unused
to occupying tho same sleeping quarters
with another, particularly one such As
his. But the pig OF a purser intercepted
the note and he came before the grat!n 2
OF the lazare. door and sneered and
chuckled and said things which causei
the hsts OF the lowly Guillermet tc
cl!nch tightly and his eyes TO glover
upon Gabriel.
They turned both Gabriel and the
Swiss. who confessed he wanted SO
badly to work with his hands in the new
world that he had stolen a perfectly
good passage from La Compagnie
Transatlantlque over to the Ellis Island
authorities this morning. The Swiss
sad nothing. merely muttering over and
over that he wanted work Gabriel
however. protested. lie was much put
out over the affair, and although he still
declined to adjust matters with the man
OF business. he spoke OF appealing tc
the French consul.
And the mockery OF Il Is that they
viii probably let this horny-handed
ploddins Swiss have his way. wh'le the
most desirable Gabriel must return
whence he came.
