the republican nominee for the senate;
ex-Congressman John Henry Wilson,
of the Eleventh district; Hon. E. Il.
Franks, of the second district; Cap
tain Noel Gaines and his brother-in-
law, Thomas Tanner, of Frankfort.
Those named have been indicted for
conspiracy to brIbe. All are republi-
cans with the exception of Gaines and
Tanner.
The indictments were all included in
one bill and were filed in court at
10 20 o'clock. The news at once be-
came public and created the greatest
Indignation among the republicans, all
of whom denounced 1t as a conspiracy
among Frankfort democrats to hu-
initiate Hunter.
Chairman Jones, of the republican
caucus said that 1T was a "diabolical
and hellish conspiracy" and that the
republicans would disprove and re-
sent 1T in the proper spirit.
DIR. Hunter has at last rebelled
against Hanna and his agent here, Mr..
Samuel Taylor of Ohio, and yesterday
afternoon sent request to Mr.. Taylor
that he leave Frankfort at once and
not return to meddle In the senatorial
muddle. This was not done, however.
When the indictments had been re
turned Judge Cantrill ordered that
bench warrants be issued for the ar
rest of the accused and made for the
next term of court, which is In Sep
tember. Bail was fixed at $25U in each
case.
Conspiracy to bribe is common
law offense in Kentucky, the penalty
being fine or imprisonment or both at
the discretion of the jury.

PINE CREST POTATOES.
Photographs Of BrObstOns Patch Are Adver-
tising Brunswick.

using DrunSWlcK.
The Brunswick correspondent of the
Atlanta Constitution sends the follow
ing interesting story to that paper:
photographs have been forwarded
to prospective Canadian settlers show
ing a Brunswick Irish potato patch.
The photos were taken some days ago
at Pine Crest, the suburban home of
Edwin Brobston.
"The potatoes are yielding finely
and have splendid growth. A delega-
tion Of Canadians has just left Bruins
wick. They were sent south by num-
Der of their fellow citizens who want
to locate in this country. Their trip
pleased them to suoh an extent they
wrote for pictures of growing vegeta-
ticn to display before their friends in
the icy north.
at is new way to convince north
ern folks OF the south's possibilities,
but may prove effective"
The TIMES, following on this line,
obtained yesterday some interesting
additional facts.
Mr.. Brobston dug two hills of his
potatoes as an experiment yesterday,
obtaining quart. He will begin cell
ing IN the local market this week. and
by May 5 will begin shipping north.
New potatoes are now quoted in New
York at SO per barrel.
The Brobston patch will yield not
less than $50 bushels to the acre. After
the Irish potatoes are harvested sweet
potatoes will be planted, and In Sep
tember the second crop Will be OBJ
tanned from the same ground. What
ie there better than Glynn county
farming?
Messrs. H. II. Harvey, Gus Lowen-
stein and others Will ship truck this
year for the first time. Our people are
just finding out that Brunswick is a
fine point for truck farming. Mr..
Richards, of the Southern, Is doing a

WAGERED HIS LIFE.
And When His Horse Was Beaten, James
Hunter Disappeared.

San Francisco, April Thames
Hunter, who has followed the turf for
many years, is supposed TO have staked
his life on Goldbug, his favorite racer.
GOldbug, W no started in a race at Oak
land track on Thursday, made gal
liant struggle, but there were faster
horses in the field. Defeat meant much
to Hunter, who is now missing. His
friends are firmly convinced that he
has forfeited his life because his horse
lost the race. Hunter anx ously
watched the race, on which he had
staked everything.
When the race was over he pulled
his hat over his eyes and remarked to
his friend, Phillip Slebenthaler: 81
staked my life on that race and lost.
A few drops will soon put an end to
the whole business"
Taking a last look at Goldbug as the
animal was being led to the station
Hunter turned away from the race
course and has not been seen since.

The Color of Ada,n and E,,.

1t was an American Clergyman who
leld the theory that Adam and Eve
we're black people. His idea was that
when man appeared on the earth the
whole climate of the globe was as hot as
nowadays in mid Africa. and so our first
parents were necessarily as dark as me-
Eroes. When the ages rolled on and the
northern climate became colder, man
took to wearing clothes and dwelling
under shelter, with the result that his
skin was beached and he became q
white being. while the negro in the tor
rid zone kept his original color.
