LOS ANGELES, Cal.. June 29. (Spe cial.) The importance of play grounds as an auxiliary In com bating; juvenile crime Is shown graph ically by a map and accompanying statistics, which Charles Miller, direc tor of boys' and men's work of the Los Angeles playgrounds. Is preparing under the direction of Charles B. Raitt, superintendent of that department. The map shows that although there were 433 cases of juvenile delinquency In Los Angeles from January 1 to the end of April, there were only 12 cases In districts coming within the sphere of playground influence. This is taken by Mr. Miller as proof that the play grounds are doing their work thor oughly in keeping down Juvenile de linquency, and that the palpable lesson to be adduced is more playgrounds are needed. "I am preparing this map as an ex hibit for the National Municipal League convention in Los Angeles next month." said Mr. Miller, "and was surprised my self by the results when I marked down the locations of the homes of juvenile offenders arrested in the last few months, and also the spheres of influ ence of the playgrounds. Playarrouada Crime Scarce. The sphere of influence of a play ground is marked on the -map as a cir cle with a radius or three-quarteas of a mile, or a mile and a half In diameter. There are six such circles orKjthe map. representing the six playgrounds of lxs Angeles, leaving a great area with out such circles. This outside area represents that- rart of Los Angeles which is without playgrounds, and Its influence on the child- life of the city Is shown by a broad path marked out diagonally across the city in red dots, each of which means the home of a boy or girl arrested for some misde meanor or crime. "The worst offenders are those ar rested in the downtown section, where there are no playgrounds, and where the children live In boarding-houses, tenements and thickly populated courts and alleys. I believe If there were playgrounds In the hotbeds of these dis tricts juvenile crime would be almost wiped out. That has been the result in the residence districts where the play grounds have gone in." SaaBKS-llaaT Plet Klrped. Forced to unload Its contraband cargo of human freight at an isolated pot on the San Mateo County coast near the town of Pescadero. the gaso line schooner America has taken to the high seas to avoid seizure by the Gov ernment. J. W. McGarvin and Gus Mc Garvin, prominent boatmen of Long Beach, and owners of the America, are prisoners in the County Jail.' having been arrested by Immigration officers, charged with conspiracy to smuggle Chinese laborers Into the Cnlted States. Seventeen half -starved Chinese are also In custody of the authorities. They had been abandoned by the fear-stricken offleers and crew of the boat and left to their own device, without food or shelter, while the little craft put to sea to avoid detection. . According to Charles T. Connell, in spector In charge of the local immigra tion office, the arrest of the McGarvin brothers is one of the most important effected in this district since the en actment of the Chinese exclusion law. The little boat, it is claimed, sailed from Knsenada. Mexico, two weeks ago, with the Chinese. - She was closely ob served as she made her way northward, and an attempt to land at Long Beach was abandoned ' because of this sur veillance. The Chinese were landed on the Isthmus at Santa Catalina Island, and remained several days, awaiting an opportunity to come to the main land. Chinese to Be Deported. Meantime the America explored the coast in an effort to find a safer land ing place, and a few days later slipped into Halfmoon Bay. There the offi cers of the America found the Earl K. where the Government officials' had tied her up. and a hasty flight was made from that port. The following night the Chinese were landed near Pesca doro. When found by the Federal of ficials they were in a pitiable condition, suffering keenly from hunger and ex posure. They will be deported. Twelve carloads of full-grown sea Hons, barking their protests at re moval from the salty" Pacific, demand ing more fresh fish and inquiring into the meaning of their Imprisonment in stout crates, have ust been shipped from Santa Barbara to Boston, New York and other Eastern points. Every three hours they will be drenched with water by watchful attendants, and fresh fish will be given them at frequent intervala by men who know to a nicety Just how much food they should have to keep them in perfect health. The great swimmers were, caught In nets near Santa Barbara, by men who used a smart schooner with a power ful auxiliary engine. The lusty lions made tremendous struggles in' the meshes of the stout nets and some of them escaped, but the rest will soon be swimming in the aquariums of East ern cities and In the portable tanks of circuses. "Everybody Is a traffic officer now." declared Chief of Police Sebastian this week, after considering for several days the ways and means of suppress ing the automobile speeders. He de cided after a review of the force that "reserves" were needed, so he proceeded to deputize the public Debatasrtea Daty. Tebutantea. high school girls, mat rons, business men. mechanics and schools boys are declared to be on duty. The aign of authority is a bit of paper and pencil. The chief instructions to the "biggest" squad are to carry pencil and paper in the handbag, vanity box or pocket, and upon seeing an automo bile pass at an excessive rate of speed or driven by a reckless or Intoxicated driver, to write down the number of the machine and telephone the number and the place where seen to the police. The system will enable the department to have a motorcycle man on the .nAA'o ..-a n within 45 seconds. Txrh.M Ha ,nMlr cannot be found by the motorcycle officer, a special no tice, stating mat at a cerw.ni nv,u. the day specified, he was seen driving so rapidly as to attract attention will be mailed to the violator, and the num ber of the machine will be Tecorded and published daily by the Police De partments printing office as a final warning. If he is later arrested his plea of first offense or faulty speed ometer wfll not avail. Accompanied by her five children, ranging In age from 9 years down to 18 months, and by several relatives of her husband, Mrs. Pascual Orozco. wife of the rebel commander-in-chief in Mexico, is in Los Angeles. - and an nounces her intention to stay the Sum mer at one of the beach resorts near hMrs. Orozco has denied that she was here as an envoy of the revolutionary party to dispose of 12.000,000 worth of bonds for the promotion of her hus band's war scheme, and says her sole desire is to have rest and peace and to educate 'her children. With Mrs. Orozco and acting in the capacity of guardians are Senor An tonio Orozco, . of . Chihuahua, uncle of the General: Beyes Orozco. 14 years old. brother of theTebel chief, and Miss Petar Molinar, of Ei Paso, a cousin of the soldier.- ; ... r Ensllah Education Waatcd. Without any attempt to conceal their identity or movements, the members of the party left the railroad station for the home of Carlos F. Gonzales, whose wife is a cousin of the General. The Orozco children will' be entered in one of the Summer schools, as the General desires to have them educated in Eng lish. "My visit here has no connection with the revolution." said Mrs; Orozco. "I have no bonds with me. I shall' en gage a cottage at one of the beaches for perhaps two or three months.", ' Initial steps for the preservation of life, limb and property on the Fouth of July have been taken by the chief of the Los Angeles Police Department. No noise is to be permitted in which powder or explosive in any form is to be used. 'Orders have been issued in the dailly police bulletin for all of ficers to Instruct merchants in their districts that no firecrackers, roman candles, sky rockets, spinning wheels, barkers or any other similar pyrotech nic devices may be sold. ; Attempts will be made this , year, to see that no youths with torn hands, blinded eyes or powder-burned faces appear at the receiving hospital for treatment. Firm co-operation in the ..hr,.m.ii) f the law prohibiting the sale of life-destroying fireworks " is promised by the chlel or tne r ire de partment, who has been in consulta tion with the police head on the sub ject. Every attempt will be made, to see that no fires are caused by ex ploding fireworks. According to the police chief. ' the names of several merchants who have laid in stocks of explosives have been furnished him, and each of these stores has ' been notified to discontinue the sale or be subject to arrest and prose cution. 5,000,000 Honey Beea Shipped. " Flve million honey bees, so well trained and industrious they do not think of demanding a rest or vacation, but work uncomplainingly Summer and Winter, have Just been shipped from Southern California points, where they have had employment during the cool months, to Utah, where they will range during the warmer months of Summer. The nractice has become pronounced among Utah bee owners of shipping their swarms here in the Autumn, and it is claimed they find the investment profitable. In the East and North bees hibernate during " the Winter months and feed upon the honey they have accumulated. The Utah owners who ship back and forth overcome this by giving their workers a double shift. It is estimated that the 4500 colonies just shipped back to Utah have produced 337.500 pounds of honey during- their Califor nia sojourn. For one colony of bees shipped from Utah in the Fall three return in the Spring, owing to the natural increase by "swarming." The vast fields of al falfa in Utah prove lucrative Summer ranges for the honey gatherers. WIFE RETURNSFROM DEAD Quarrel ' Ensues . With . "Widower!" " ' and, 1ltlgatlon.' Begins. ROSE BEADS POPULAR AND ARE EASILY MADE Directions for Making Ornaments Must Be Followed Implicitly to Get - Satisfactory Results Various Colors May Be Produced. PARIS, June 29. (Special.) Some three months ago -a -Mme. Thomas, wife of a porter -at the Halles, was admitted as a. patient . to the hospital of the Hotel IMeu. About the middle of May, M. Thomas received a irotlce from- the hospital -that . his wife" had Just died there. In due affliction the husband' repaired thither, and on the mortuary slab certainly reaognized the body of the late Mme. Thomas. All his friends rallied round him and -subscribed for a wreath, and the next day the market porter, with his employer and the keeper of the-wine shop that he habitually patronized,-followed the coffin : to .the Ivry : Cemetery, after which the widower went into the usual mourning. - '' '" The other day Mme. Thomas was dis charged from the Hotel Dieu, and nat urally wenc straight back to "her room, which she found empty. , She next re paired to the bar,- .whose proprietor nearly fainted at the sight of her. It was in vain that he and his customers explained to her that she was dead and had. been buried three weeks ago, and while the question was being argued M. Thomas dropped in. "Look here, you donkey, there is your wife, who is as alive as you are," were the words addressed to him by the proprietor. A furious quarrel ensued, as madame seemed very vexed at the mistake, and declared that she would no longer be a wife to him. since he had so quietly made up his mind to bury her before she was dead. A arood many delicate points ' will now arise, for, according to number less official papers ' and. certificates. Mme. Antolne Thomas departed this life In- rea-ular form three weeks ago. and was properly buried, wherefore her existence today is a cenance to tne administration, and M. Thomas, forti fied with legal documents, is undoubt edly a lone widower today, free to take another wife, and unable to com pel his former spouse to resume her place and duties. BY LILIAN TINGLE. THE following directions for mak ing rose beads are given in re sponse to numerous requests. Perhaps some reader may volunteer additional information. When the rose bead fever slezes a victim nothing can be done but pro vide the necessary recipes and ma terials and wait in patience for the at tack to pass. There is an epidemic in this city at present. - Sometimes the attack is a slight one and passes over when some of the beads in question have been seen on other people. ' Some times it is more acute and the victim not only makes and wears beads her self, but insists upon oth'ers doing so. Careful housekeepers and busy mothers have been known to neglect every or dinary duty while - they made rose beads. Others have been heard of who made them and put them In the fire when made. . This is a warning to those not yet Infected. It is chiefly sentiment (anything made from roses must be beautiful) and an exultant sense of making something for nothing that spreads the fever. In the past the beads have sold for a fair price and there are legends of very large prices paid for chains of them. Now they can be had from -50 cents-up.- There is a demand- for colored -rose beads. Some one asked the other day how to make violet rose beads. How do you make lamb beefsteaks? . Some of the commercial colored per fume beads' are made .from - different compositions scented -with' artificial perfume of the flower from which they are supposed to be made, .and colored with aniline or other dyes. Some are painted. . For some of the composi tions a mould is used, but the ordinary domestic method is to mould the beads with the hands or with wooden "Scotch hands," and . set them up on pins to dry. Beads Shrink la Drying. "Carving" can be done with a file, a screw, a small knife or a kind of a die made for the purpose. Usually the beads shrink a good deal In drying so should be made larger than is de sired for the final size. They can be rubbed . and polished with oil when finished, or varnished with shellac or egg white, oil being usually preferred: Rose, violet, sweet clover, lemon ver bena or other colored beads may be made as followsr . Dry the petals or scented leaves quickly in the sun, so as to preserve the color. Rub between the hands to a fine powder. To one-half pound of this powder use from two to eight ounces of powdered orris root, the maximum quantity being, of course, used for violet beads, and the minimum for rose beads. Take care that the scent of the verbena or clover is not overpowered by too much orris. Soak about 5 cents' worth of gum traga canth in a, little warm water to make J a thin Jelly, then knead it into the powder until 'you have a firm, flexl hle naste. moistening if necessary with a little rose water, violet water, clover or verbena perfume. Add a few drops of oil of roses or of verDena. wim some flowers, carnations especially, a pinch of powdered clove helps to make the perfume natural. A few drops of lemon extract, for Instance, aids tne verbena Illusion; but a drop too much ruins it. If the natural color is not bright enough, a little fruit coloring may be cautiously added. But be cau tious. Some of the colored beads are simply appalling in color. Form into beads (round, oval, cylin drical, or square the paste should be both firm and flexible) and' allow for shrinkage In drying. Spike the beads neatly on a pin, and stick the pin into a soft board to dry. If "carved" beads are desired, mark them when partly dry. Thread on dental floss with "mounting beads" (gold, silver, opal escent, black.- white, or colored, accord ing to individual taste and the kind of beads to be "mounted") between each. Fancy designs can be worked out by making the beads of various graded sizes and meunting them in La vai Here", style. Imitation Beads Made. Imitation rose beads are' sometimes made by soaking dry allspice berries in rose water or other toilet water until soft and threading In patterns like rose beads. Sometimes the softening perfumed water Is rather deeply tinted with fruit coloring, but the allspice berries, being dark in color, cannot, of course, take on a light, bright tint. Where coloring paste is used, either for allspice or for the petal beads given above, a shellac finish had better be given to avoid the risk of marking garments with the beads' coloring. To make the ordinary dark rose beads, either of the following methods may be used: No. 1 Use preferably red highly per fumed roses, but others will do, es pecially if rose oil is added. The best texture results when the yellow fleshy ends of the petals are removed. For 60 medium-size beads you will need at least a gallon of fresh rose petals. Pass them through a meat grinder, using the fine blade and collecting the Juice which drips in an iron pan. Re peat four times. Mix the ground petals and Juice in. the pan with a few drops of oil of rose and let stand all day, stirring occasionally. At night re rrlnd four times and set in a cool place. The next morning shape into beads with the hands (very messy work, this, and tedious, too.) Slide carefully upon a long pin, stick the pin in a board and leave to dry for a week or ten days. when they will be . hard, black and fragrant. Mark, if desired, before they are too dry, by rolling a screw. or file over each bead. When hard rub with a little olive oil on a piece of flannel to polish them." String on dental floss, with mounting beads. The above is the method a-iven by Mrs. M. G. G., Call fornia, and printed quite recently May 26 in the answers to correspondence column. As the iron pan is used to blacken k a null, iiba an onameleri nan if dark red or brown beads are preferred and add coloring paste if the tint is not satisfactory. Llgnt snaaes wnnui obtained by this method. No. 2 Grind the rose petals, as above, but do not let the pulp stand. Cook at once to a thick mass, stirring constantly.' Citrle acid (say a table spoonful, powdered, to a quart of pulp) helps to keep a red or pink tint. If black is wanted, cook In an iron kettle and omit the acid. When nearly cool, add a few drops of oil of rose. When quite -cold, turn out the mass and roll k... .trvlnr nn ninfl. an above. vlnlot haarta. 11RA violet netalS and a little acid, but if green, fragrant' leaves are usea, omn me kiu una uao a verv little baking soda to preserve the color. Some makers of beads by this method add gum tragacanth or gum arabic to give "body" to the pulp, and starch might be used similarly. Not In Cse Long. Answers, London.
