even if one of those ships, with
powerful machinery or under full
sail, had found itself in these re-
gionS, busy with its own fight
against the storm, it could not
have come to the rescue Of the
yacht, which the sea tossed about
like a cork.
Meantime, Briant and his COM

keep the schooner afloat.
What ever shall we do?" asked
Doniphan.
Everything possible to save our

Briant
He was saying that. this young
boy, and yet the most energetic
man hardly would have been able
to keep up any hope under the
circumstances.
Fight to Save Ship
The storm every minute became
more violent, the wind turned to
gale and the Slough looked as
if she surely would founder. For
48 hours the disabled vessel had
ridden the gale, her mainmast
broken four feet above the deck. It
had been impossible to put up o

to steer her. The foremost. with

the deck. In the bow the shreds
of the little jib-sail whipped about
in the wind, cracking like pistol

At that moment the door of the
hatch which led to the main cabin

hand to the grand jury today two
bills of indictments against Martin
Moore, 22-year-old Negro, charged
with the brutal hotel-room murder
Of pretty 19-year-old Helen Clev-

Nettles said he planned to pre-,

it. If this happened, the schooner
could no longer be maintained
with the wind. The waves would
catch her broadside on. She
would sink, and the passengers
would disappear with her to the
bottom Of the sea.
Sail Torn Away
Until then no land had been
sighted! To be tossed ashore any
where would be terrible, and yet
these children would not have
been as afraid of it as they were
of the terrors of this bowling sea.
A shore, whatever it might be
with its reefs, it's sand bars, its
formidable comberS, the surf
which necessarily batters the
rockS-a shore, they thought,
would at least mean terra firma
in the middle of this ocean, which
was ready to open under their
feet. Therefore, they were looking
for a light toward which they
could steer the ship. But none
