From the Kansas City Star
 The joy of a woman who, through the blunder of a clerk in a jewelry store, is able to buy $50,000 pearl necklace for $I9, must be intense. But it is only circum- stance to the sorrow of the employer of the clerk whose innocence made the mis- take possible Luckily for the 1eweler land the clerlx) the woman who purchased the string of precious stones was honest when put to this severe test and re- turned them when she discovered that a most amazing mistake had been made
 A story like this deserves to take it's place side by side with the one that tells of the buying of Manhattan Island for a paltry $14. It is more incredible to present-day readers. Yet 1t is just as true, for this comedy, which came very near being a tragedy, involving as 1t did the possible ruin of the jeweler, has just been enacted in Paris.

The work of the association. however, is national in scope and it Is ready to aid playground movements in every city. Its object is to have every city in the United States provide adequate playgrounds for it's population. It will also urge play ground legislation on states, and one of it's officers has in mind plan of greg summer camps for children to which sne little folks can be sent from the hot. crowded city streets in summer. The campaign is not to be confined to cities already congested. Especial attention IS to be paid also to places which are not yet crowded in the hope that these places will set aside playgrounds while land IS yet plantiful and cheap and not wait as New York did until playgrounds In crowded neighborhoods cost thousands if dollars per city lot. Under this plan the association hopes to influence even small towns to set aside in their early develop ments land which shall forever be the children's acre, places where the children of America can gratify their taste for ac
 tive sports and for play without violating the ordinances which seem to be aimed at the central instincts of children. The off, ficers of the association believe that where a municipality makes 1t illegal for chill dren to play on the streets that munich pality should provide places where play will not only be lawful but will be actu- ally encouraged. It is beleved that every cent invested in play facilities will yield an absolute and tremendous profit by re- ducing the amount that must be expended in punishing or restraining adult law

No Game at Rockville Yesterday Results ip All the Other
 Leagues.

The baseball team representing the Manhattan Field club of New York, which was to play at Rockville yes terday afternoon must have realized that the weather was more suitable for football than the national game for the players did not put in an ap- pearance. They were coming to this city on a percentage basis which would have been not more than a dollar or two as there were scarcely dozen persons at the field. Every thing was in readiness at the field to receive the visitors and their failure to come was keen disappointment. There was a short game between the regulars and the scrubs. after which the first team had about an hours practice. The wind was blowing it. self to death and the atmosphere at Reid's baiiwick was not conductive to any hair raising practicing. The Yafe second team was due here this afternoon and was scheduled to try conclusions with the cold weather men at 3 80 o'clock. The New Haven boys generally make it interesting for their opponents and should give the home team some good practice.

 New York, April 22-Battery Dan Finn celebrated Easter by dischargins at least four-fifths of the prisoners brought before him ill the Tombs court. .t
 Among the prisoners were fifty Chinese arrested in raid made by detectives of the Second inspection district. All were charged with Gamb- ling.
 What were they doing?" asked Magistrate Finn.
 ''Eantan," said one of the detec- lives.
 Did you get any of the cards?' asked the magistrate.
 "They don't use cards: they use buttons," said the detective.
 "Buttons,' cried Battery Dan. cards were the weapons then. Any how you have no evidence that these prisoners were gambling. You've TO right to enter mans house without warrant, and I'm not going to have this court imposed upon in this way. The prisoners are discharged"
 Then another batch of Chinese were arraigned.
 Whats the game this time:" asked the magistrate.
 'Dominoes," replied Detective Cur ry.
 That's silly game" said Battery Dan, -disgustedly. T used to play it as q boy myself. In fact I know almost all these gambling games and some times l play them. Only yesterday 1 was gambling at the race track and they didn't arrest me. l was inside the fence"

GAMBLER MAGNATE JAILED.
Sentence of Marquet Causes Con-
 sternation in Ostend.

Ostend, April Afarquet the pro prietor of the Kursaal gambling rooms here, has been sentenced to three months Imprisonment and to pay a fine of $500 for contrayening the anti-gambling laws. If the iudg- ment is confirmed by the higher courts it is predicted that 0stend's popularity will speedily wane.
 It is regarded as impossible to keep up the attractions of the place with out the magnificence of Marquet, who has largely subsidized the racing fencing and sporting fixtures. He also ran the theater.
 So much depended upon him in- deed, that the seasons programme was not fixed pending the verdict in the action against him.
