JIMMY TOMAN' GETS RELEASE Former Los Angeles Shortstop Will Probably Be Umpire This Season. When It came to mailing 1907 contracts to the members of last year's Los Angeles baseball team. Manager Henry Berry for got Jimmy Toman's name. Toman drew a blank, and the fact will not surprise the Coast League fans. Three years ago Toman was the best shortstop in .the league, but during the past two seasons his work has been indifferent. His release came partly at his own solicitation. It Is not Toman's intention u quit baseball; he will probably be one of the Pacific Coast League umpires for the coming season. His application to Danny Long has been made, and Man ager Berry has given him strong indorse ment for the berth. Jimmy should make an Ideal Judge of play. He has years of experience as a player, a complete knowledge of all the ins and outs of the game and a splendid judgment of all things pertaining to baseball. Palmer Seeks Match in America.

Inclusive, from which the Port land members have just returned, those in favor of Portland as the next meeting place won by 73 to 23. The vote was no sooner taken than those opposed at tempted to show that the bringing of the lodge meeting to this city would cause an expense of $5000. which would not be necessitated by having the meeting, as heretofore, in the Bay City. The entire matter was reconsidered, but on the sec ond ballot those in favor of the Portland gathering again won. In holding the session here Portland members will be almost sure to get the Brand vice-presidency next term. As the California members also had a man in mind for this office, they were very de sirous to keep the next session of "the lodge away from Oregon. The grand lodge consists of delegates elected to It from Oregon. Washington. California. Idaho. Montana and Utah. This is known as grand lodge district No. 4. Otto Cramer lias been appointed deputy for this district. PERSONALMENTION. Dr. W. H. Ellis, of Albany, was regis tered at the Esmond yesterday. H. H.

VALLEY MEN BUYERS Pay $85,000 for Corner , Fourth and Burnslde. at $60,000 PAID A YEAR AGO Quarter at Yamhill and Lownsdale Streets Brings $35,000 Pro posed Electric Railway Depot Helps Xearhj Property. Several large real estate transfers were added yesterday to the heavy record for the week, among them the sale of the southeast corner of Fourth and Burn side streets, to three Willamette Valley purchasers. The property is 80x100 feet and the consideration was $85,000. The purchasers are H. R. Klncaid, of Eugene, who is already extensively interested in Portland realty; E. F. Dunn, also of Eugene, and C. F. Hurburt, ot Junction City. Brooke & Kiernan. in conjunc tion with J. J. Flynn, made the deal. Sold for $60,000 a Year Ago. The present sale shows an Increase of $25,000 in value in one year, as the same property was bought about 12 months ago for $60,000. The identity ot the owners was not disclosed, the property being held in the name of the Security, Savings & Trust- Company. The holding is covered with frame buildings of little value. Although no immediate changes are con templated, it is probable it will be made the site of a large building before many months. Throughout this part of North Portland many new buildings are under way and others are planned. The land is increas ing in value so rapidly that owners are hastening to replace the frame struc tures with brick. It is predicted that this entire district will be built up solidly with brick warehouses within the next few years. Effect of Proposed Depot. A number of holdings have been tied up in the immediate neighborhood of the block upon which the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company is to erect its $1,000,000 depot. The company denies that it has bought more than the one block, and it is generally believed that the pur chasers are individuals who have taken advantage of the rise incident to the im provement to be made by the corporation. Among purchasers of this kind was that of the Mason, Ehrman & Company prop erty by Brooke & Kiernan for $130,000. A quarter of a block at the northwest corner of Yamhill and Lownsdale streets has been purchased by K. K. Baxter from Dr. S. J. Barber for about $33,000. The property adjoins the Scottish Rite cathedral and is improved with two dwellings. One of the residences has been the home of Dr. Barber for 30 years. The sale was made by C. K. Henry. Mr. Henry has also sold to D. F. Oiler five acres adjoining Kenilworth for $3000. George Hartman has sold the property at the southeast corner of Eleventh and Burnslde- streets to Henry S. Reed. It is 50x95 feet and brought $30,000. The sale was made by I. G. Davidson. The prop erty is improved with fiats and dwell ings and is at present paying a fair re turn upon the investment, with a pros pective increase in value. DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAND, Feb. 21.
