WALTER YOUNfi HAS
ATTRACTIVE PICTURE
Special To The Herald.
Leavenworth, Has., Sept. 1.—When
the parole hoard meets at Federal
penitentiary here this month the first
t use to h,. considered will lie that of
John R. Wali li, the former Chicago
hanker. Mr. Walsh entered the peni
tentiary Jan. 19,^ 19ID, convicted of
having violated the hanking law. Re
cently President Taft refused to grant
him a pardon, but it is believed In*
will he paroled when tho hoard meets.
At the direction of Attorney General
Wickersham th«. outstanding Indict
ments against Mr. Walsh have been
quashed, thus removing the last ob
stacle in the way of paroling the —.

which is arresting the attention of

Young. It. shows two bouses, one ft
beautiful little bungalow, nicely ar
ranged and surrounded with grass
and beautiful flowers, underneath the
words, "Your Own Home." The oth
