Justice of the Peace Royal W.

men, arrested at Scheutren Park, for
the sale of liquor on Sunday. The
men were: Edward F. Shea, Her-
man Berger. Leo Gerywocs, Emil
‘Cohn, and Emil =Kratonfer. The
case against the last named was
polled. The lines for" the other four
totalled $262.82. The state police-
men who made the raid testified that
they had purchased beer .l‘rom the
accused at Bchuetzen Park on dif-
ferent occasions. The accused plaid
not guilty, but later changed their
plea to nolo contenders. The state
policemen who made the raid were

sini and Calano.
Prosecuting Agent James W. Knox
asked the court for more. than a
nominal fine, and Augustine Loner
gen, for the accused. thought that an
exception should be made in the case
of Berger, inasmuch as he was rath~
er deceived into selling the beer to
one of the policemen. In summing
up the case, Justice Thompson said
that he thought that the real guilty

first, but were ordered back as worse
than useless in a fight against burn-
ing oil.
More than a dozen cars had taken
fire from the burning oil. The blaze
on several went out of itself, without
giving the fire fighters taxable. and
several fires were put. out before they
had made much headway, but five
freight cars. loaded with merchandise
on the same track with. the exploded
gasoline car, were flooded with boll-
lng oil and burned so fiercely that
the firemen with the wet sacks could
not even approach them.
The heat from these burning care
was so great that danger developed
for strings of care on parallel tracks
several yards away. 'liose lines were
brought out again and played on this
fire until two switch engines were
brought up and the threatened strings
of cars drawn to safety.

The sheriff and his guests Were
greatly pleased with the sanitary con-
dition of the jail and the kitchen came,
in for particular notice. A hood was
recently placed over the large stove
and the odors from the meats and veg-
etables while being cooked do not
float through the jail now as they did
before Jailor Wright took charge.
John Brophy. chairmanof the Fair
field County Commissioners, accom-
panied Sheriff Passe on his hour or in-
spection and he also was pleased with
the present condition of the jail. He
carefully examined every part of it
and found that the installation of gut-
ters on the roofs was the Only thing
that was now needed.
A visit was also made to the Dan-
bury county court house which is dir-
ectly opposite the Jail. and the visitv
ors saw the handiwork of the janitor
of the building. All of the furnishings

put into shape for the opening of court

“There Is one thing i want in the
jails over which i have supervision,"
said Sheriff Pease. “and that is clean-
liness. After i took office on June 1
last 1 made up my mind to see to it
that the jail in Danbury and the one in
Bridgeport received all the attention
that was needed, and when i saw the
fine work which Jailor Wright has
done to the Danbury iail l certainly
was pleased."
The genial sheriff sure did get con-
