CHAPTER XII.

For a moment Frost felt hollow, and
had some ado to stand upright. He held
he handle Of the door In one hand, and
with the other propped himself against
the wall.
"Zeno?" he contrived to say, In voice
which he knew to be much unlike his
ewn. "Ah. The spy"
He expected some sort Of instant con-
demnation, for to his startled mind the
statement that Zeno was there meant
that Zeno was actually within the house,
and was of itself proclamation of the
discovery Of treason. He had time enough
70 be shot, stabbed, poisoned, abducted,
and tried for treason In his own swift
darting, frightened fancy before Dobroski
spoke again.
Eyes" said Dobroski, ''he is here. It
b well that everybody should be warned
Of him."
"Of course" returned Frost, trembling
In his limbs, and speaking with a shake
In his voice. HE seems to be danger
Gus sort Of fellow"
Dobroski mounted the staircase In ST.
lence, and entered Frost's room In obedi-
ence to a wave Of the hand from the regu-
lar occupant. Frost followed In time to
see Zeno turn In his armchair and look
at the newcomer with a casual air. This
Was succeeded BY start of surprise, and

Two Governors We're, When Chill
Gren Charges of Charity As
ISOLATION.

1t is not generally known that two
men who have been governors of
states of the Union were once found
ling.
Nearly fifty years ago, two little
boys o. eight and nine dug their toes
in the sand on the shores of Randall
Island and watch the river boats
pass and plan what they would do
when they should be men. Both had
been picked up homeless on the
streets Of New York and committed
to the city's institution for children,
then on Randall's Island. One had
been found in Chatham Square by
President Roosevelt's father In 1859
the Children's Aid Society took them
on a long journey, ending on sepa-
rate farms in Indiana. Each worked
his way through school and college.
One. Andrew H.. Burke, was elected
the first governor of the state of
North Dakota in 1880. The other,
John ]. Brady, q Yale graduate, was
appointed governor Of Alaska by
President Mckinley.

Cooks and Walters Walk Ont.

Seattle, Wash, Dec. More than
125 restaurant employees, members
of the unions of cooks, walters and
Mattresses walked out of ten restau-
rants here today because the employ
ers refused to grant the day OF"
which has been in force since last
June. Before night the strikers had
secured agreements from three en-
ployers to accede the union demands,
and tonight it looks as if organized
labor will win the strike. Several
restaurants had to close and all ran
with part of the help. Tonight the
bakers union voted unanimously to
back up the restaurant employees,
which means that the bakers will
walk out tomorrow, unless the en-
ployers come around.
