Much search would be required to
find a county jail cleaner than the one
on North avenue, Bridgeport, over
which Sheufl‘ Simeon Pease presides,l
was the opinion of a number of guests
the sheriff entertained at dinner at the
jail yesterday afternoon. The guests
were the three commissioners of Fair
field county. John Bropliy of Ridge-
fleld, Henry 1’. Crawford of Green-
wich, and Frank E. Ballard of Bridge‘
port; the Fairfield county auditors,
John W. 'l‘readwell of Trumbull and
J. Henry Blakesman of Straliord;I
Frank E. Clark, George McCarthy and,
three local newspapermen.
Cleanliness Commended.
Each guest expressed admiration
for the fine condition in which the jail'
is kept by Sheriff Pease. Everything!
is in spick and span shape, and diri'i
is sentenced to immediate expulsion.
The handiwork of the. painter can,
easily be detected and the prisonerst
look to be in the very best possible'
condition. Much cffmt has been madeI
by Sheriff Peat-1e and his assistants to
plate the jail in a thoroughly cleanE
condition and they have just reason‘

Since Sheriff Peasedook charge of!
the Bridgeport and Danbtlry jails. hel
has insisted upon each institution be—I
ing kept in a thoroughly sanitary con-
dition. He instructs his men to soot
to it that no dirt is allowed to accu-I‘

is Stickler for Sanitation. . l
Sheriff Pease took charge of the
jail last June and since then he has
been busy making improvements and
renovating the place. He is a slicklerI
for cleanliness as was evidenced by}
the appearance of the jail yesterday.;
The men who work in the kitchen of.
the Jail nre attired in neat uniform-I
and extremely clean and the food lai
prepared for the. prisoners in utensils,
or ‘the latest designs. Everywhero.
about the jail are evidences of SheriflI»
Pcnse's work. He is very thorough
in anything 'ho undertakes and has'
pro1cn one of the moat efficient oill-,
trials in Fairlield county. 1
His thoroughness was very notice-1
able nhlle he was county commission-'
or for 12 years and while holding that;
position, he was looked upon all one
of the county's most trusted and.
faithful servants. He has carried his:
wide knowledge with him into his
new position and visitors to the coun-
ty jail are glad such an able and
conscientious ofllclal as Sheriff Pcaso
is in charge. 1‘
Dinner Exceptionally Fine. .
The guests sat down to a fine tur-j
