Frankfort. Ky, Feb. 5.--(Spe-
cial THE senate passed a bill pro-

all public schools except in cities of
the first and second classes.
The bill providing for a board of

the senate, showing that after paying
all outstanding warrants up to the

James says practically all the
money paid out was paid in the first
few days he was in office, and the
former auditor had failed to pay out
standing warrants, thus leaving a bis
balance.

the senate were:

Hughes. Who Had
Twenty Years Experience
Will be Acting Adjutant
General.

Frankfort, KY, Feb. 5.-To cope
with the night riders in western Ken
lucky, Governor Wilson has secured
the services of Capt. w. n. Hughes,
of Columbia, Tenn, a United States
army officer, recently stationed at
Memphis, who will take charge of the
state troops during an indefinite alb
sence of AdjtGen. p. II. Johnston,
who will go to New York and Florida

General Johnston was DESTROYS Of
seeing some one at the head of the
state militia during his absence who
was thoroughly familiar with military
affairs, and request was made upon
the war department to detail an Off
Ger here during his absence. There
were several applicants, and among
them it was decided that Captain
Hughes was the most desirable and
best qualified. He has seen much
active service in the army. He be-
came a member of the Thirteenth in

in service for 22 years.
Veteran of San Juan.
During the Spanish-American war,
Captain Hughes was in command of
a company at the battle of San Juan,
and did valiant service.
A few years ago, however, he re-
tired from active service and has been
at the head of the military depart
ments of several of the southern col
leges since that time. Captain Hughes
has the appearance Of a militiaman,
and General Johnston is satisfied that
he will be able to bring the depart
ment up to a standard unequalled in
any of the states.
He had 22 years service in the
army. He was checked in today, and
.it is likely that his first service VIII,

cause.
