NORTHEN'S CANDIDACY.
His Friends "Urging Him to Announce
for the Senatorship.
Atlanta. Ga., March 17.—Gov.
Northen has boon receiving let
ters from various parts of the state during
the past week asking him to make the an
nouncement of his candidacy for the
Senate, or authorise his friends to an
nounce him. His friends refer to the an
nouncements of Messrs, icl. on. Colquitt,
Garrard and Dußignon, and urge the
governor to come out officially also in
order that his rivals may gain no un
necessary lead in the race. Gov. Northen
has been generally spokt n of as a sena
torial candidate since the commencement
of the discussion of a successor to
Senator Colquitt, hut he has never
committed himself on the subject
either privately or otherwise, so far as
gossip about the capital goes. His candi
dacy has been regarded as the logical out
come of his tenure of the governorship,
hut, as stated. Gov. Northen has not so
far made any public statement of his
candidacy at least, and his friends are
getting anxious. Some of them have in
sisted strongly in tneir letters on the
subject, but from all of them the gover
nor has withheld the desired authority
or announcement. Those who are c losest
to him say he is shy of a long campaign.
He knows that once openly in the race he
will have to roll up his sleeves us the
other candidates are doing aud this he
does not think is the best expedient.
When the proper time comes, however,
the governer's friends say ho will bo
fresh aad ready for the start.
EVERETT'S ARREST.
A Universal Belief in His Innocence
at Brunswick.
Brunswick. Ga., March 17.—The arrest
Of R. H. Everett, announced in to-day’s
issue, created a storm of indignation
among his numerous friends here to-day.
People associated with him in business,
and socially, have repeatedly assured the
Morning News correspondent that
Everett's accounts are correct, and that
the proceedings against him are unjust.
He has hundreds of friends here who
refuse to believe he is guilty of wrong,
and many preferred as bondsmen and will
assist in his defense. Everett was inter
viewed to-night and said: ‘T did not
care to refer to the matter, but the article
which was wired purporting to give an
account of the controversy between tlie
road and myself caused some comment
and lam glad of an opportunity through
the same papers to say that the criminal
prosecution, instituted by the road is for
the purpose of compelling me to pay them
a debt of s34t> and is unjust, and to avoid
paying what they owe me. Ido not care
to discuss the matter further through
the papers as 1 tccl confident that all
who are acquainted with me will give no
credence to the statement that I am a
criminal, and 1 trust that those with
whom I am unacquainted personally will
suspend judgment until the road has
tried its case.”
HYPNOTISM IN DENTISTRY.
A Maconlte Submits to a Painful Op
eration While Under the Influence.
Macon, Ga., March 17.—8 y means of
hypnotism, Pr. H. H. Johnson, of this
city, has within the past two clays per
formed two painless operations in dental
surgery. The subject on whom the oper
ation was performed is Arthur Chapman,
a young man 17 years of age.
Chapman had previously had two
teeth filled, but the pain was
such that further operation was dis .'on
tinuad, as his nervous system was en
tirely unstrung. In conversation with
Bam Everett, Macon’s well-known hypno
tist, he mentioned the painful operation,
and Everett told him by means of hypno
tism it could be rendered painless. The
young man consented, and while under
the influence had the doctor complete the
operation, which was done without the
young man experiencing the slightest in
convenience.

BRUNSWICK'S NEW BANK.
Controller Eckels Authorizes It to
Begin Business.
Brunswick. Ga . March 17.—The Na
tional Bank of Brunswick, H. W. Reed,
president, will open for business Monday
morning under telegraphic approval from
Controller Eckels, which was received
to-day. Controller Eckels’ special
representative, A. D. Lynch, who is
here for the purpose of ascertaining
whether the new bana has complied with
ail the legal requirements previous to
opening, said in an interview to-night
" The National Bank of Brunswick has
perfected an organization by paying in
fI.VJ.OtX) as cash capital. There arc twelve
stockholders, and the officers are: H W.
Reed, president; C. Downing, vice pres
ident ; .iair.es Here Smith, cashier: W. E.
Kay, \Y. B. Burroughs. Kos -nda Torrns,
W. G. Brantley, H. H. Tift, directors.
This hank is entirely distinct
and independent from the hirst
National Bank of Brunswick.
The majority stockholders both
in holding and number are composed of
those not previously connected with the
h irst National. Almost the entire list of
the old First National depositors have
signified by written agreement that they
will accept certificates of dejiosit issued
by the National Bank of Brunswick,
in lieu of their claim against
the First National. In some in
stances depositors prefer to have
small amounts piaid them and take
certifieau s for the 1 alan< e, but th
matter of agreement between the deposi
tors and the bank and it is left to their
choice whether part cash or ail certifi
cates are received Under this arrange
ment the First National by its receiver
sells the National Bank sufficient assets
to discharge all its liabilities. Its debts
being discharged the remaining assets
go to the First National stockholders
and are collected by an agent as provided
bylaw, the entire process of liquidation
thus being kept within the province of
national banking laws. The arrangement
is a fortunate ono ior the depositors of
the First National. The plan is a liberal
one. The depositors of the First National
will receive their piayments in accordance
with their agreement with the bank.’’
The announcement of theopening of the
bank will be cheering news to the public,
and cordial support will be given it. Re
ceiver Thomas, Mr. Lynch and Col. Kay
leave Tuesday for Washington to com
plete the final details with Controller
Eckels, concerning the settlement with
the depositors of the 1- irst National
under Col. Kay’s plan. Receiver
Thomas will to-morrow issue a statement
to the public to the effect
that in order for the receiver to complete,
the final arrangements of the plans pro
posed by the new bank for the settle
ment with the creditors of the First Na
tional a few days delay is unavoidable,
but immediately after the completion of
these details due notice will be given and
the creditors can affect their settlement
according to their contract with the old
bank.
AN ABUSED BANKING) LAW.
Ex-Stockholder, of Twenty Years Ago
Liable for a Recent Failure.
Americus, Ga., March 17.—Judge Fish
to-day granted a very important order
that is far reaching in its results. He
ordered the receiver of the Bankof Amer
icas, T. W. Wheatley, to filo with the
clerk of the court a complete list of the
stockholders for the twenty years
prior to his appointment as re
ceiver. The hank of Americus has
a clause in its cliater making each
stockholder personally liable for all the
debts of the bank. The object of this or
der is to furnish information to all hold
ing claims against the bank when it sus
pended business, upon which to base ac
tion to-figeover. Besides many local busi
ness men nearly all the leading banks of
the state, and at least a score of banks in
New York and other nothern cities have
beeti stockholders during the time covered
by the order.
CONTENTION" OVER A FEE.
There was quite a contention over the
fee, claimed by Judge Fort for drawing
the order to place the Americus invest
ment Company in the hands of a receiver.
Fifteen hundred dollars, the fee claimed,
was considered by interested parties as
excess!vo. Judgo Fish fixed the fee at
S3OO.

That very few persons have perfect eyes. It
