wHooPING COUGH.

This is very dangerous disease, par
ticularly to children under I've years of
age, but when no paregoric, codeine or
other opiate is given, is easily cured by
giving Chamberlain Cough Remedy.
Most people believe that it must run its
course. not knowing that the time is very
much shortened, and that there is little
danger from the disease when this rem
edy is given. 1t has been used in many
epidemics of whooping Cough, with pro-
nounced success. 1t is safe and pleasant
to take.

SPECIAL COMMITTEE TO
PROBE JAIL MATTERS
State Commission viii Invest. GATE
Management Of the Ba tile
Over in TROY

Troy. N. Y, May 1S.--An investiga-
ton of the management OF the Rens.
selaer county Jail by the state prisons
commission win begin Monday.
The investigation will be conducted
by a special committee Of the commits
sion composed OF President John s
Kennedy and Commissioner Henry
Solomon of New York and Charles S.
Rogers of Hudson. This action was
decided upon at a meet ng of the com
mission in New York city yesterday
afternoon
The decision of the commission or
dering an investigation discloses the
fact that the efforts of the Rensse-
laer county Republican leaders to
persuade, Sheriff John Selley, jr,, to
relinquish his Office have been futile
and that he and his advisors have not
been convinced that the sheriff has
erred seriously enough to warrant his
removal. In fact certain influential
Republicans were int.matng last
night that if Selly had not incurred
the enmity of certain clique he
would have been carefully covered up
in everything except the recent es.
cape of two prisoners
An the other things charged
against him in the street reports of
the trouble at the jail appear to the
sheriff's supporters to be trivial
enough with the possible exception of
the new story that until very recently
a woman has been carried on the pay
roll who never worked at the jail at
all, but actually was employed all the
time specified at local collar manu-.
factory.
