The Popular Supervisor of Athletics
 at Georgetown College.
 NJ. J. Thompson of this city, who is acting as supervisor of athletics at Georgetown college, was visiting at his home here to-day. He had busi- ness in New York with some of the athletic clubs and colleges and jumped up to Waterbury to see his friends and incidentally to look at the ruins of the fire. Manager Thompson has had rare good luck in his work at Georgetown this year and his recent athletic meet was one of the biggest events ever pulled off in the south. He speaks enthusiastically of all the athletic features of Georgetown and says that the baseball team and the crew this year will be heard from when they face their opponents. The baseball team has been practicing for three weeks now and is in the pink of condition for a hard season. Man. ager Thompson will leave for the col lege tonight or tomorrow morning.

DANGER OF COLDS AND LA
 GRIPPE

The greatest danger from colds and Ia grippe is their resulting in pneu- monia. If reasonable care is used, however, and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken, all danger will be avoid ed. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for these dis eases, we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneumonia, which shows conclusively that it $ a certain preventive of that dangerous malady. It will cure cold or an at tack of Ia grippe in less time than any other treatment. It is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by all drug gists.

valet Jones, statements Disproved

Valet Jones' Statements DisprOved.
 NEW YORK, March 15.-Evidence tending to shatter the entire fabric of Valet Jones' testimony concerning the murder of William M Rice was given yesterday. The principal ground for crediting his story rests on his asser- tions that Albert T. Patrick was unac- quainted with Rice and had never wis ited him in his home. Three witnesses gave the direct lie to these assertions. Two said they had seen Patrick and Rice together in the old millionaire $ home at 800 Madison avenue. A third witness said he had known Rice for many years and had heard him speak of Patrick. The lawyers for the de- fense assert that these witnesses have completely broken the force of Jones' story.
