BROKE, HUNGRY AND FORLORN. There was but one case In court this morning, and it was a listless one. Ora Boyd, a young man with a cherub face and a winning smile, greeted the judge pleasantly with a smiling, "Happy New Year." He said that he had been in the city for several days looking for work and as he could not And any and his money had given out, he had been left to the mercy of the cold world, which in its whirl of pleasures had passed him by and let him go hungry.

His dream was soon dispelled, however, for the gentleman In question broke In with "Come on, bo; I want you," and Detective Coling and the trusting Ora wended their way to the police station.

OFF ACROBATIC TEftM Charles Bufflnk; of the Zaro Family, Dfes ofHDropsy Other Deaths; Charles Buffln known by his professional connection as a member of the Zaro family of acrobats, who have achieved a wide reputation in American amusement circles, died at 6 o'clock this morning, at fit. Joseph's hospital from, dropsy, at the age of 31 years. Mr. Bufflnk was a son of Mrs. Prank "Weismantle, of 819 Lafayette street, and has been in failing health for some months.

He was taken ill at Fort Worth, Texas, while filling a professional engagement and five weeks ago came to this city to receive medical treatment. He was born at Delphos, "Ohio, Tune 4, 1871, and came to Fort Wayne at an early age. While a mere bm he manifested unusual ability as an acrobat, and with his brothers, John and George Bufflnk, secured a professional engagement eight years ago with the Morton Jones circus.

A reporter for The Sentinel dropped Into the general office of the Aetna, Life Insurance company, of Hartford, fat 132 East Berry Street, in qnest of news. In conversation with Mr. Charles W. Orr, manager) he Bald that they had just elosed up the report for the first year's business under his management, and that results were very gratifying.

The new business 'written and paid for during 1902 was more than four times the amount of new business written in 1801 In the same territory. The new premiums collected on business written this year is just about 22 per cent, of the total renewal premiums paid during the year. Mr. Orr says that the Official Life Insurance Report will show that the Aetna has made a very handsome gain In Its Indiana business during 1002. Last year the Aetna collected nearly $300,000 00 In premiums and has more than $8,000,000 00 insurance in force in the state of Indiana.

Mr. Orr was connected with the Hamilton National bank for so many years that this information will be gratifying to his friends, who questioned the 'wisdom of his relinquishing his official connection with that institution to take charge of the Indiana General Office of the Aetna, which was being transferred from Chicago to Fort Wayne to be placed under his control, he having become a recognized authority on life insurance, after having devoted much of his leisure time to the study of that subject during the past ten years.
