WHO OWNERS OF NEW HAVEN ROAD ARE Road Has 26,544 Stockholders, of Whom 10813 Are Women, The interest which New England has in the New Haven road is revealed in figures just compiled showing the ownership of its stock on January 1 lagt. The number of stockholders on Jan. 1, 1915 was 26,544, which .com- pares with 26,240 in 1914, 22,716 in 1913 and 22,106 in 1812. Of these stockholders $6 3-4 per cent. live in the four states of, New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts and hold 89 per cent of the company’s stock. The figur by states are: New York. 4312 stock holders owning 531,390 shares: Con- necticut, 5,646 stockholders owning 256,256 shares; Rhode Island, 821 stockholders owning shares; Massachusetts, 12,259 stockholders owning 564,996 shares, Foreign holders of the road's stock number only 118 and hold 8,791 shares, which is only 1-2 per cent. of thos outstanding. Of the present stockholders, 11,322 43, | are males, 10,813 females, 3,523 trusts ana guardianships and $87 insurance companies and other corportions. Compared with a year ago, this is an fincrease of 610 in the number of males, a decrease of 221 in the number of females, a decrease of 141 in_the number of trusts and suardianships and an increase of 56 in the number of insurance companies and other cor- porations. There is no more fallacious idea than that a railroad like the New Haven is owned by a few wealthy individuals. Its ownership, on the contrary, rests among many individuals, the vast ma- jority of whom hold not more than 50_shares apiece. For example, these figures show that 12,210 or 45.9 per cent. hold from one to ten shaves: 9,688 or 36.4 per cent. hold from 11 to 50 sharesand 2,414 or 9.09 per cent. hold from 51 to 100 shares. Only LSS7 or 7.1 per cent. hold from 101 _to 500 shares, 201 or 0.79 per cent. hold from 501 to 1,000 shares, while only 144 persons hold over 1,000 shares. RECRUITS WITH MUMPS GIVEN LIBERTY NOW Have Been Quarantined for a Month at Fort Wright. Following a month's confinement in a quarantine camp, 60 recrui who arrived at Fort H, G, Wright on Fish- ers Island, from Columbus. barracks, early in February, have now been re- leased, although still under observa- tion. Other recruits who are still suf- fering from the malady aré of course receiving medical care-in quarantine. The presence of the disease; which is contaglous, was discovered almost im- mediately upon the arrival of the new- 1y enlisted artillerymen and they were promptly segregated in order to pre- Vent.spreading of the disease. The segregation was successful in its effect, none of the ofher men in the reservation besjdes the recruits having the ailment communicated to them. About twd years ago,a similar situation prevailed at the fort and it was successfilly handled in the same manner. i % — FOUR TEAMS LEADING K. OF C.

Deputy Commissioner of Internal Rev- enue Rules on Full Name Claus Deputy Commissioner of Iaternal Revenue George E. Fletcher has writ- ten in answer to a query by a local druggist, explaining that the name of a physician as it would be affixed to a check or legal document is sufficient. The letter says'that a physician regis- tered under the Harrison narcotic act may sign his name J. H. Smith, John H. Smith or John Henry Smith. The pharmacist wrote the commis- sioner’s office to inquire if he was right in demanding that a physician who had signed a prescription calling for nar- cotic drugs, by using his two initials, write his name in full. The law saya the name must be written in full. One pharmacist declined to fill prescriptions because several physicians did not write their names in full. Pharmacists in other cities took the same stand and lost business in order that they might be on the safe side. Chicken Coop on Fire. The Central station companies.

TIPPERARY SAILOR. One of the Newest Shapes Shown at the Openings Tuesday—Vogue ot Fruits, Berries and Transparent Brims. Perhaps the one distinctive note of the season’s styles in millinery is the odd and charming use of familiar fruits and ber for trimming. On a fascinating little Continental model shown yesterday, it was of myrtle green hemp, the turned brim was outlined with berries and tiny ivy leaves. The finish was a fleur-de-lis bow in myrtle sat-| in ribbon A modish Scotch turban had a crown of white Ottoman satin, the brim being wood green braid. For trimming it had cerise and sand tint- ed flowers and buds in two set bou- quets on the brim. Dainty and seasonable was a tur- ban in combined shades of Alice and navy blue, with two wings of the lighter silk A graceful veil combin- ing the wo shades made this a very smart model. A pretty wistaria hemp turban shape was stylish and effective, al- though its trimming was a simple aigret of frosted grapes. More dressy, of course, was a sail- or in white braid and chiffon. This had a transparant brim, through which a wreath of fine flowers showed. A streamers of black velvet ribbon gave a Frenchy touch. The finish was a white ostrich aigret. A chaplet of orange buds was the garniture of a natty little black chip turban, fine follage being combined with the flowers. An orange fancy formed the flnish. Shadow brims are in high favor. A large sailor of chiffon cloth had a brim revealing daisies, Its crown was of sand braid and the trimming was of uncurled ostrich quills of a put- ty shade. A Leghorn picture hat for formal social wear had Leghorn crown, lace brim, Dolly Varden roses, and coral velvet straps and bows. Exceedingly effective was/a §ailor in French rose crepe, with small pastel Toses laid flat on the brim. A band and streamers of black vel- vet ribbon gave the finishing touch of elegance, One of the most effective hats dis- played was a hemp in army blue tint, There was a_ box plaiting of blue grosgrain ribbon about the crown, with wired ends. The trimming was shamt bunches of yellow berries. Elegant, too, was a foliage turban in the new, modish pear green, with brim of foliage and garland of white berries. As an artistic finish there was a rabbit-ear bow of Belgian blue vel- vet. Of course the Tipperary sailor has made {its appearance, a model show being of sand satin braid. It had a rich scarlet satin facing, the new Exposition Bow in séarlet: grosgrain and a_ cute little bunch of cherries. A charming myrtle green Milan sailor had a dashing butterfly _wing on the center of the crown and was trimmed with black velvet ribbon in strap effect. A transparent large hat of black horsehair braid had three brims, the trimming being realistic American Beauty roses.
