ST. LOUIS, Nov. ct is stated that
Governor Walker has left Lecompton,
and it is thought that his destination is
for Washington. Gov. Walkers object
in stationing troops at. Lecompton was
because the Legislature is largely free
State, and would probably repeal the OBJ
noxious laws and dispossess the officehol-
ders, in which case a repetition of the
bloody scenes of the early history Of the
territory was apprehended,
The constitution was to be submitted
to the people with the slavery cause,
which is said to be objected to by the free
State men, and too moderate for pro-

Bread Excitement in PhiIadel-
phia.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 6.--Considerable
excitement was occasioned in this city to
day by demonstration similar to that
progressing in New York for the forcible
seizure of bread. A gang of about twelve
men, armed with muskets, and carrying q
banner with a loaf of bread painted on it
and the inscription 'We will Protect the
Poor" were parading through some of the
streets. The police dispersed them, and
captured all of the guns.

HER SAVINGS Mary Rowell,a widow
lady, nearly ninety-one years of age, who
died in Nottingham, N. H., last week at
the house of D. Stevens, although ap-
parently destitute of all means of sup
port, was found to have in one of her
pockets two five dollar bills on the City
Bank, Boston. One of them bears date
in printed characters, March l, 1926,
The other is dated in ink, now almost
invisible, sometime in 1925. The sigma
lures have nearly faded out, but the bills,
with the exception of being little tender,
are in good state of preservation.
