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. 1t
has, during the year just past, in
creased its business to an extent that
surprises even its best and most san
guine friends. The Aetna Life's assets
have nearly reached the $50, ,000, 900
mark, showing an increase of about
$4000,000 in 1901. with proportionate in
creases all along the line of the COM
pany's field of labor.
What so large gains mean, not only
to the management but to its 1871 900
policyholders. and even to the nation at
large. will be apparent from the fact
that life insurance is becoming one of
the leading and best forms of invest
ment for rich and poor. For the rich
man life insurance is a great conven-
ience; 1t increases his credit; it secures
him against adventurous speculation.
For the poor man ii is a necessity. The
life insurance policy is generally the
only asset which most men leave be-
hind them at death.

Cannot Get II Back Again.
The result of case of more than
ordinary interest before Magistrate
Levy yesterday morning establishes a
precedent regarding the right of the
Joint Ticket Agency to confiscate
scalped tickets. w. d. Kirk, recently
arrived at this city from New York,
When he reached Charleston he left
his round trip ticket in the hands of
scalper to be sold. A purchaser was
found. but when he appeared at the
Joint Agency with the ticket 1t was
confscated. The purchaser hurried
back to the cut-rate establishment and
the scalper fell back on Kirk. The
New Yorker settled with the man who
failed to pull the wool over the eyes
of the railroad people and then asked
the Joint Agency to return to him the
ticket he bought at New York. The re-
quest was not complied with. The
Joint Agency had posters and plaoards
on all sides proclaiming the fact that
a ticket presented for valuation by
other than the original purchaser will
be held up. Kirk swore out a warrant
before Magistrate Levy against the
Joint Agency, charging that concern
with larceny. When the matter came
up for an investigation the magistrate
dismissed the observation-disclosures and

are wont to do on their native heath.
The worshipers of Joss have their
own peculiar conception of the celebra-
ton of new year which is dated from
the day the reigning king ascends to
the throne. The day is begun with a
fervent prayer to Joss to protect and
keep them through the coming year,
after which there is feasting. The Ce-

visit each other, presenting good luck
cards, drinking, eating and smoking

ZEIGLER'S OFFER.
Wants to Meet COrcoran for Amy
Number of Rounds, winner Take

All.
1t would seem that from the propo-
sition and counter-proposition that
are making to each other for a box
ing match, that happy mean, to which
each WI agree, and which will result
in the arranging of a bout, will be
brought about after awhile.
That both men are willing for a
match there can be no doubt Corcor-
an, even before his last mill" with
Douglas announced his intention, II
he won, of challenging Zeigler, and,
later, Jim Burke, whom also he is
anxious to meet again, and from whom
he has little doubt that he can wrest a
victory.
Zeigler anticipated the challenge by
announcing his willingness to meet
both Corcoran and Douglas on the
same night, and either to put out both
in ten rounds each or forfeit all claim
to any part of the gate money. This
proposition Corcoran met with sug-
gestion that he felt himself able tc
meet Zeigler and to make it very in
teresting for him without having Doug
las in the game at all, but specified
that he. would not box under the
auspices of any club.
Then the Savannah Athletic Club
came forward and offered to rent the
boxers the quarters of the club and
allow them to run the bout themselves
Now Zeigler proposes that this be
done; that Corcoran meet him, for any
number of rounds, and under any other
reasonable conditions that he may
specify, winner take all receipts. He
also will put up side bet for any
amount that may be desired. and an
nounces further that he would like
to have the bout pulled off Feb. 81.

A young American playwright, whose
name is we'll worthy to rank with such
dramatists as Clyde Fitch and Angus
tus Thomas, is Glen Macdonald. Be-
sides being the author of several of
May Irwin's comedies and other sue
cessful plays. Mr. MacDonough has
written what is considered to be the
greatest effort of the season, MOLLY
Pitcher" in which Kathryn Kidder is
starring. Mr.. MacDonough admits that
no previous product of his fertile pen
can be compared with Molly Pitcher"
In recent interview he stated that he
could not escape success with this play,
its subject being so inspiring. 1t Is a
source of general wonder that no play
wright in this country has ever before
attempted to put upon the stage such
an intensely dramatic subject as Molly
Pitcher" who distinguished herself so
signally at the Battle of Monmouth
that Gen. Washington publicly compli-
mented her and made her a sergeant,
with half-pay for life. Miss Kidder's s
appearance in this city is awaited with
much interest. She will appear ON
