UNITED STATES RUBBER.

Parent Company Owns 70 Per Cent. of
 Rubber Goods Preferred and 90 Per
 Cent. of Common.
 The United States Rubber company now owns upwards of 90 per cent. of the common stock of the Rubber Goods Manufacturing company, besides rath- CT more than 70 per cent. of the pre- ferred stock. Of the issued common stock of the latter concern, $16941, 700 in amount, there is less than $1,5OO,OOO in the hands of the public, and of the $9,051, 400 preferred, less than $2,700,O00.
 The company will continue to ex- change it's own stocks for those of the Rubber Goods company until May l, 1906 so it is entirely probable that it will eventually acquire all of the com mon stock, through which alone the parent company would be able to re- ceive the surplus earnings of the Rub Der Goods company in excess of z per cent. on the preferred stock.
 As a matter of fact, the United States Rubber company has no inten- tion of paying a dividend upon Rubber Goods company for good many years to come In the first place, the smaller company has between $2,000,000 and $S,- 100000 of bonds of subsidiary out standing and these will first be paid off out of earnings. After that the surplus will be applied to writing down the book valuation of some of its plants and making improvements in others, The same policy will be pur- sued as was adopted some years ago by the United States Rubber company Hence it will be easily a matter Of three or four years before any ques- tion of dividends on Rubber Goods common can come up. For these req sons, the parent company is not con corning itself about the acquisition o1 the minority common stock.
 Recent estimates of the current carr ings of the Rubber Goods Manufactur- ing company and of the equity of the parent company in them, have under stated them. President Dale says thai $2,500,000 is a conservative figure fol the earnings of the Rubber Goods com pany in the year ending March 31 next Of the 6SS,59S required to pay the pre- ferred dividend, the parent company would receive, say, 70 per cent, o | $44S,5lS. Owing at least 90 per cent. oi the common stock, it's equity in tht $1,S66,402 surplus over preferred divi. dends would be $1,679,7 762, making a to tai of $2,12S, 2S0 to represent the paren company's share of Rubber Good earnings. The Rubber Goods compan, owns the Hartford Rubber Works.

pr. W. D. Anderson Answers These
 sscrtions-Deductions From Impor-
 ter.
 Dr. William c. Anderson, director of the gymnasium, than whom probably no one is better known in his line Of work, has obtained data to prove that the health of student after gradua- tion is not impaired by his college ath- letic training. In support of this thto- ry Dr. Anderson says;
 "The hostile criticism that athletes die young" has been so often made without definite refutation that it passes for truth among those who mis- take runor for fact. An Investigation of the health and longevity of college athletes must be exhaustive to furnish trustworthy data. Realizing the inc portance of such statistics Professor Franklin B. Dexter the librarian of Yale, has recently completed the task of collecting the records of 761 athletes who competed in intercollegiate events and won their "Y's" on the eleven, the nine, the crew and the track team be- | tween 1855 and 1904. The main deduc- l tions from this material are as follows:
 Of these 761 athletes, 51 have died since graduation. The causes were: Consumption, twelve; pneumonia, four; drowning, six; heart disease, two; suicide, two; war and accident, three; died from unknown causes or disappeared, ten; from various diseases l fevers, appendicitis, cancer, diphthe- ria, paresis, dissipation, etc) twelve.
 Of these fifty-one men, eighteen rowed, sixteen played football, eleven were track athletes and six played baseball.
 Of the four who were drowned while young are eliminated from the crew ta- ble, the average age is raised to All years.
 I Turning to the 71O living athletes, those who have passed forty may be thus grouped:
 One hundred and thirteen are be- tween forty and forty-nine years of age; eighty-six between fifty and fif- ty-nine; twenty-two between sixty and sixty-nine.
 Of the Yale athletics in their latter years, fourteen are between sixty and sixty-five years, one is sixty-five, three are sixty-six, one is sixty-seven, two are sixty-eight and one is sixtyj-nine In brief barring violent deaths, only forty of these 761 Yale athletes, in a period of nearly fifty years, have been lost from the ranks of the living.
 It is widespread opinion that ath- letes are liable to heart trouble, but only two Yale men of this sturdy little army have died from this cause.--SStt would seem more significant that of the fifty-one deaths sixteen were, due to lung affections Consumption Sand pneumonia), the sports engaged in be- ing football, six; rowing, four; bass.. ball, two; and track athletics, four. It would be unwise to state that ath- ltic training is a predisposing cause of lung trouble, for they may be only co- incident.

GIFT TO YALE NAVY.
Morton F. Plant Adds to Gales Ferry
 Quarters

Morton F. Plant Adds to Gales Ferry
 Quarters.
 Morton F, Plant, of Branford house, already so widely known for his munifi- |cence, has, it is reported, made gener- ous gift to the Yale navy in the form of a plot of land, with the mansion at present standing on it. at Cafes Ferry. MT. Plant was interested in the work of the Yale crews during their annual period of training last summer and be- came an enthusiastic supporter of the blue. The members of the crews were entertained on his yacht Venetia upon several occasions.
 He found out that additional room was much needed at the crews training quarters at Gales Ferry and, with his characteristic promptness, cast about for a method to supply the need. The property which MT. Plant donates to Yale is situated close by the present quarters of the Yale navy, and when fitted up for it's new purpose will al- most double the accommodation for the crews.

IS AN UNUSUAL ARTIST.
CAMPANARI PLAYS CELLO AS
 WELL AS HE SINGS.S
Not Only That, But Was a Skilled Pi- anist Years AgO-This is Why the Baritone Sings So Understandingly and So Wonderfully.

Campanari, the fascinating baritone, who is to give a song recital in Wool sey hall on the evening of Thursday, February 1, is a remarkable man, as well as one of the greatest baritones of our day.
 He is a skilled violincellist, and at one time played first 'cellist in no less 8 band than the Boston symphony. He played divinely, say those who heard him at the time, and was often heard in solos.
 It is because of this that Campanari sings with so much greater feeling and with so much more variety of express sion than do most barittones. He is rare musician
 It has been said that this singers song recitals are as diverting as is an evening at the opera. He can't sing without acting, and even the most phlegmatic among his audience IS thrilled by his dramatic intensity For example one has never heard the rous- ing Toreador song from Bizets Car mem as it ought really to be sung until one hears Campanari sing it,
 He has the power to bring the bull fight before your very eyes, and the entire sumptuous picture of the arena, shouting crowd and all.
 His programme for next week is to be most beautiful one, and as this great singer always gives of his best, this recital arranged by the university department of music, under the dtrec- tion of the New Haven Symphony orr chestra, is bound to be a very good mu- sical feast.
 Seats will be placed on sale on Tues day and Wednesday, January 30 and S1, and on February at Steinerts Sons Go. all day, and at the Woolsey hall box office from Ii to 1 o'clock.
 Popular prices will be charged and even the lowest priced seat will be re- served. Twenty-Five cents discount will be given to holders of Symphony con cert course tickets and to the universi- ty extension lectures.
