TAX RECEIVER BRYAN INSANE.
Question Raised in Brunswick by a
Court Appointment.

Brunswick, Ca, Jan. 3.-News reached
Brunswick to-day to the effect that Mr..
w. B. Bryan, tax receiver of Wayne
county, who resides al Gardi, had become
suddenly insane on Sunday last, and Sc
curing an ak and a shotgun, proceeded
to destroy everything in sight.
He was finally captured by friends and
they carried him to the Jesup jail for
safe keeping. Fortunately the insane
man did not harm any one and his friends
are at loss to account for the violence
of his actions. He was at all times a
peaceable citizen and well-liked by every
one.
On Saturday last Mr.. j. P. Davenport,
clerk of the City Court, was reappointed
by Judge S. C. Atkinson, the retiring
judge, for a term of four years.
This appointment is said to be good TO
hold for the four years. and if the point
is well taken it will relieve the incoming
judge of the power of appointing Mr.. H.
F. duBignon, who was supposed to be
slated for the job under the new incurn-
bent on the bench, Hon. J. D. Sparks.
The appointment involves question of
local politics and is liable to create con.
siderable interest.

chant of Baltimore, is tonight en- route 10
chat city under guard of United States

brought by the Mad River Creamery
Company of Waitsfield, Vi, who charges

attempt to secure their business in Baki-
more, and that the circulars which he
sent out were part of a scheme to de-
fraud and misrepresent them TO their pa
irons.
The indictment is not specific, its pro-
visions being very vague but Redman
did not demur TO his arrest, stating that
although he knew nothing of the charge.
he would return without hesitation to Bal
timore believing that he could exouerate
himself Immediately on his arrival there.
He was accompanied by his wife on his
