Is as much rivalry between the child

playgrounds In the city has had Its

has tried to obtain the best standard
of excellence.

done at the playgrounds. Tuesdays
exhibition has not been modeled after
any of those of other cities. Mr. Grll
ley and the playground committee de
cided to have the children go through
nine of the every day maneuvers which
characterize life on the playgrounds.
That the playgrounds are a good In--teMment
Is testified to by the robust
and healthy children that romp on the
at-oii nils every day. The establishment
cf the grounda some years ago served
to take the children off the streets and
to put thera In a central place where
a supervisor has an eye on them.
Fewer accidents to children on the
streets have been recorded since the
advent of the playgrounds In Portland.
The Portland playground committee
Is composed of Mrs. Helen Ladd Cor
hett. chairman: Mrs. w. B. Ayer. Mla

Defamation Suits Filed
Against Two Officers.
D. C. Pearson, grizzled and prosperous
looking man of finance, promoter and
soldier of fortune, on many fields, was
held lo the grand Jury by Justice Bell
yesterday to answer for an alleged em
bezzlement of 1500 of the funds of the
North Pacific Trust Company. The com
plaint was made by C. I). Hulbert, sec
retary, and M. M. Urdahl, vice-president
of the company, two real estate dealers.
It Is alleged by the prosecution that
these three organized the company, to
handle many large projects. Including an
hAn.A rH ihm hlllldinft- Of a
at Salem. Pearson reported .that he bad
arranged a sale of the land to the state,
but that It would be necessary to have
a deed In the name of the trust com
pany, as the state would not deal with
an agent. Yankke made such a deed.
Xew Mortgage Made.
Mortgages were pressing on the prop
erty, and the promoters borrowed from
Balfour. Guthrie & Co., $16,000 to pay
them off. After a partial settlement of
the mortgages, a balance of J24S3 was left
and It Is charged that Pearson caused
this to be entered to the credit of the
company as commissions earned. The
state contends that the company could
not earn commission by paying off one
mortgage on Its own property with
another.

payment of $1500 to Pearson, being salary
for six months at $250 a. month, and $230
to Hulbert, salary as secretary. Hul
bert later became convinced that he was
hot entitled to this money and proposed
