NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
The greatness of country Is best shown in It's
permanent institutions. They at once give solidi-
ty and perpetulty to Its character and standing
with other nations. That America is now in the
ascendant, is proved by the superiority OF her in
surance companies. The fact Is now becoming
recognized, even in Europe, that her life corpora
tions are the safest and best in the world. 1t Is
this growing sentiment in our favor which has
Induced the New York Life Insurance Company

where its excellence Is already appreciated, anu
where there are many thousands who VIII De
easily persuaded to insure their lives In COM

government supervision, and little or no publicl.
ty given to the actual condition OF such corpora
tons Insurers in England will find the New York
Life company they can implicitly trust with
their savings, economically and skilfuly conduct
ed prompt and certain in their payments, and

ed gentleman to represent it In this new Held

moastrated his remarkable efficiency In similar
undertaking on the Pacific Coast; where, In the
space of few years, he built up life business
from small beginning of some forty thousand
dollars year to an annual income OF one million
and half He Is not only manager OF superior

She stoops to CONQUER.

The fine old English comedies, in the hands
OF competent players, are always sure to draw
| good house in Charleston and even had q less at
tractive bill than Goidsmth's "She Stoops tc
Conquer" been announced, the hearty good will
and admiration which Miss Laura kcene has al
ready won in our community would have sullced
to make her benefit last night what it was-a
marked success.
The opening comedietta, Two Can Play at That
Game,n was charming piece, admirably pre-
sented by Miss Keene, Mr.. Mordaunt and Mr..
Stuart.
But in "She Stoops te Conquer the dramatic
piece.de-reSistance Of the evening, Miss Keene
achieved her mist complete triumph, thus far,
since she first appeared on the Academy boards.
Certainly never has the character OF rhe arch
fun-loving Kate Hardcastle been so admirably
personated in Charleston. The rest OF tile cast
was most judlciously made up; and no one who
witnessed the performance will for moment
doubt the capacity Of this excellent company to
present, in worthy style, any OF the favorltc and
standard plays which, like 1.-The School for Scan
dal ~ require powerful dramatic combination.
Mr.. Hawk as the rollicking, mischlevous, good
natured Tony Lumpkin, was exceptionally good,
in his acting as we'll as make up; and Mr. Nor
daunt was capital Young NARROW. The perfect
naturalness which always distinguishes this gen.
teman's manner and tone on the stage cannot be
too highly praised
sour American Cousin will be produced for
the last time at the matinee to-day the hour Of
which las been changed, it will be noticed to
u O'Clock noon. or course, the ladies and chill
dren will turn out eanasSe to see this celebrated
play at the cheap rates Of admission.
For tonight We are promised great bill, en-
bracng two most amusing comedies, besides the
ever-popular Toodles.
