Ny CHRISTMAS morning, Deru-
Ghetto, charming young girl,
wrote the name of q man, Gil
Ilatt. in the snow, Gilliatt, seeing the
name and knowing who wrote 1t, new
err forgot,
Gllliatt was a young man of doubt
rul birth and unpopular disposition
who lived by himself In an old wreck
Of q house In st, Sampson In the Isle
Of Guernsey. He was fisherman !;
also a carpenter, wheelwrlght, sort
Of engineer when need be. He was
also a dreamer of dreams.
Deruchette lived with her uncle,
Mess Lethierry, n man at once good
natured, intolerant, superstltious and
progressive. In his wandering days
Lethierry had befriended Rantaine, an
adventurer who repaid this kindness
by running Off with $4,000 francs of
Lethlerry's, the savings of forty years
and intended for Deruchette's dowry.
However, Lethierry had still his
steamboat, the Durande. She at least
would not fail him. Other steamboats,
failed, but not his Durande-thIs be-
cause Of her wonderful engines The
master of the Durande was Sieur Gu
bin. who had built up reputation for
high responsibility. He was capable,
prudent seaman and wonderful SWIM
mer Also he was man who knew
how to bide his time.
In one Of his trips to the main land
Clubin encountered the thief Rantaine,
as he was about TO leave the country
with fortune of $4,000 francs. At
the point Of a revolver ClubIn took
from RantaIne the $4,000 francs, and
at once, although II was foggy, set
sail In the Durande for st. Sampson.
The Durande was wrecked on some
rocks In the channel. Clubin disem-
barked his passengers and crew In the
iong-boat. For himself, he would go
down with his ship. The passengers
and crew, arriving safely In st. Samp.
son. were loud In their praise of the
heroic captain.
All Lethlerry's hopes for Deruchette
had lain In the Durande. He besought
men to go out TO the wreck to see II
there was hope for her or IL CiubIn re-
NAMED alive. They went, GillIatt first
of all, and returned to report that no
Clubin was there and that the Durande
Was hopelessiy wrecked. Only her en-
gines remained intact.

Lethierry from his despair. Her en-
ginesl His engines, which he had de-
signed himselfi They were the real
value OF the shlpi II he could but re-
cover the enginesl But how1 What
man could devise the means to save
ihemf The superhumap being who
could do that, why--he should marry
Deruchette.
A man pushed his way through the
crowd surrounding Mess Lethierry and
his niece. "You would marry him to
DeruchetteT said the man. II was
Gilliatt.
Mess Lethierry raised a solemn
hand. =! pledge myself to II in Gods
namei"
Next day Gilliatt set sail. With ex-

SHIPPING BOARD APPEALS
HEARST'S INJUNCTION
Admiral Benson and Associates
Will Contest Justice Bai1ey's
Decision on Ship Sale.

Admiral W. S. Benson and his as
sociates on the United States Ship
ping Board. today noted an appeal
to the Court of Appeals. from the de-
cision of Justice Bailey of the Dis
motion to dismiss the Injunction pro-
ceedings brought by William Ran
dolph Hearst to prevent the sale of
twenty-nine ex-German vessels taken
over by the United States during the
war The formal order denying the
motion of the Shipping Board was
signed today by Justice Bailey in
accordance with the opinion filed by
him last Saturday.
Owing to the nearness Of the sum
mer recess of the appellate court, 1t
is regarded as unlikely that the
case will be heard in that tribunal
before next fall.
