THE AETNA. LIFE.

The big and very satisfactory figures of the annual statement of the Aetna Life Insurance company are printed elsewhere in this issue. The showing is one that the management must take pride in placing before the public. It has, during the year just past. increas- ed its business to an extent that sur prises even it's best and most sangulne friends. The Aetna Life's assets have nearly reached the $60,000,0O0 mark, chewing an increase of about 4,000000 in 1901, with proportionate increases all along the line of the company's field of labor.
 What so large gains mean, not only to the management but to its 1Sl,00O policy holders, and even to the nation at large, will be apparent from the fact that life insurance is becoming one of the leading and best of forms of invest ment for rich and poor. For the rich man life insurance is a great conven- fence; it increases his credit; it secures him against adventurous speculation. For the poor man it is necessity. The life insurance policy is generally the only asset which most men leave behind them at death.

The Boston Grocery Co..

milder climates of the South and and
 southwestern portions of the country
 has begun this year at very much irl-
 creased rate over that of any previous
 season. Transportation companies re-
 port that their facilities are completely
 utilized and that early application is off,
 ten necessary in order to secure choice
 accommodations. The Southern Rail-
 ways new and palatial train, "The
 Southern's Palm Limited" which begun
 it's service in the middle of January be-
 tween New York and the more promi-
 nent southern resorts, has proved q
 welcome-and In view of the increased
 travel-a necessary addition to the means of er-communication between
 these two sections. This train is run
 ming heavily loaded each day, every
 compartment and state room being taken. and it has frequently been
 necessary to put on additional sleeping cars to accommodate the demand. The
 popularity of this train is mainly due
 to the prominence of the points which. it touches and the quick time which it makes between New York and Florida. Another train operated by the Southern Railway is the Washington and South western Limited. It's close connection with the Sunset Limited" of the Southern Pacific company at New Or leans, to Mexico and the Pacific Coast makes 1t a popular southern route for the winter travel. This system offers quick service to the beautiful Land of the Sky" the mountain region of North I'or xx,itt ,taI Jonn tod o1z famous resorts as Pinehurst, Asheville and Hot Springs, also to Columbia, Aiken and Augusta. These places are easily reached and it is one of the main reasons for the present great increase in Southern travel The travel to the still milder and more southerly located resorts in Florida, St Palm Beach, Ormond and Tampa, and other places on both the and Gulf coasts of the State seems to be equally heavy. The South ern Railways route is also most popu- lar among travellers to Cuba, since the quick time made between New York and Tampa, and Miami, materially shortens the trip to Havana. Travel westward through the Gulf States to New Orleans and the west is unusually heavy, and the approaching Madri Gras festivities in New Orleans are also at Lracting a considerable number of northern visitors to that oity. Con- olete information in regard to reaching. Ill of the above resorts can be procured It Southern Railway offices, New York City, 271 and 11s5 Broadway, which are he bureaus of information for Southern ,ravel.

 TTON


 Alderman filling, of the Ninth ward has accepted a challenge from Charles Gay to debate the water question at the hall of the Young Mems Republican club, corner of Temple and Crown streets, tonight Everybody will be welcome, as the public Is invited, and seats will be reserved for ladies. The public entrance is on Temple street.
 The coming discussion grows out of a previous wordy encounter between these men at a mass meeting held in Pohlman's hall last Tuesday night, where both were on the list, one to ad- dress the meeting on the water ques- tion and the other to defend his course in voting for the continuous contract in the board of aldermen.
 Ex-Mayor Farnsworth has consented to be chairman of the meeting. The time is to be divided equally between MT. Gay, MT. Alling and the audience. MT. Gay says he will be on hand with out fail and Frederick Orr of the Ninth ward, gave assurances last night that Alderman filling would be on hand to debate.
 As one of the debaters is a republican and the other democrat the affair will be a non-partisan one, and republicans and democrats alike are invited. HEAVY TRAVEL TO FLORIDA AND

DEMOCRATS

But Democrats Undecided as to
Which Place it Shall be--Pop-
ulists Want Mills for Sec
retary of State.

Denver, Sept. l0--The time of the
forenoon session of the democratic
state convention was consumed in n
conference between committees from
the democratic and populist conven-
tions and adjournment was finally
taken to 2:30 this afternoon.
1t was finally decided to give the
populists one place on the ticket, but
1t has not yet been determined
whether it will be the secretary of
state or lieutenant governor. At
this time however it looks as if the
democrats will have to sacrifice Fred
W. Bailey, their favorite for the sec
retary of stateship, in the interest of
fusion, and give the place to the pres
ent incumbent, Mr.. Mills.

CR0SSEST THE RANCE
Millionaire Mine Owner Died
at Ten This Morning.
Was III but a Short Time and
Death was Unexpected---Short
Sketch of His Colorado
Career.

Colorado Springs, September 10
Winfield Scott Stratton lies dead ut
his home in Colorado Springs as a re-
suit of liver trouble with other com
plications, his life having ended at 10
O'Clock this morning.
Mr. Stratton was i'll but short
time and it was not until last night
that his condition was known to be
serious. Late last night consulta-
tion of physicians was held and at
that time they announced that there
was no immediate danger. but that
his condition was very grave To-
ward morning his symptoms became
more alarming, and he grew gradually
weaker until ten O'Clock this morning
when the end came.
w. S. Stratton came to Colorado in
1872 and was engaged as "A carpenter
and contractor at Colorado Springs
But from time to time he went out on
prospecting trips. He opened up a
mine in the San Juan country in 1882,
but on account of differences with his
partners the property was never de-
veloped and he had to sell out at a
nominal sum When the Cripple
Creek excitement started in the spring
of 1891 he drove three pack burros in
to Cripple Greek and located number
of mining claims on Gold and Bull
hills. He was then associated with
three partners. One day he said to
them, Get away from me, boys, ]
have been hoo-doo all my life, and
if You want to sell or work this
ground you can have my interest in
it, He then went down on what
was known as Wilson creek, now
known as Battle mountain, and on the
fourth day of July, 1891, located the
Washington and Independence 1t is
said that he had dream that evening
that he wonld open up bonanza
mine, but W hen questioned about this
fact he always positively shook his
head, neither confirming nor denying
the story In the fall of 1891 he
bonded the Martha Washington to
Pueblo parties for $50, 900, receiving
in payment $40, 900. With this money
he patented over 200 acres of ground
adjoining the Independence and
Martha Washington, which few
years ago he sold for $40, 600, 600 to an
English syndicate Through the
Washington shaft he took out some
ore, but later on the big dyke which
cropped out on the Independence was
the beginning of his fortune. On
the surface he shipped from a body
of ore varying in width from ten to
over thirty feet several thousand tons
that averaged close to 800 ton.
With the money secured from the
surface deposit lie sank the big shaft
on the dyke and before selling the
mine had cleared 81, 100, 900 over and
above expenses Stratton was one of
the most magnanimous mining men
that Colorado has ever seen, also
charitable when he knew the cause
was right
