Something entirely new in the real estate world on the Coast was sprung yesterday, when the Jacobs-Stlne Com pany made the announcement that lots in "Berkeley," Portland's beautiful new residence section would be sold on the "dollar-a-week" plan. For sometime it had been noised about ,that the "Berkeley" Addition would be placed upon the market and many inquiries had been made by pros pective homebuyers, who desired to purchase there but in each caea the inquirer was given the answer, "we are not ready to say Just yet what we will do." All the greater was the surprise of Jacobs-Stlne's announcement yesterday, when they positively stated that lots in "Berkeley" would be sold for one dollar a week. Mr. Jacobs, being asked why his company had decided upon such a remarkable and easy plan said: "In handling our other Portland property, we found scores of persons who could not pay from $10 to $25 per month and we decided to find something that would fill this want and were fortunate In securing 'Berke ley,' which Is one of the most beautiful tracts 1 have ever seen. It is Ideally located, has niagnlflcient scenic sur roundings and already there is a great request for 'Berkeley' lots, which are being sold under a special proposition plan until Juno 9, when we will have our big opening." The Jacobs-Stlne Company are now located on the fifth floor, Swetland building. The Curtiss Company, sell ing agents are at 309 Ablngton build ing. ' WHERETO DINE.

Ripley THERE are few forms of dramatic 1 entertainment that please the av erage audience so much as the rural drama. In the last decade the annals of the stage are filled with plays pre senting the manners and customs and the types found "down on the farm." One of those which has succeeded most eminently is "The Dairy Farm." a comedy of life In an up-country neighborhood in New York State. It Commanded considerable attention in Broadway and has been seen on tour for a number of seasons. Th Baker company gave it its first stock per formanee in Portland yesterday after noon and, Judging from the manner of Its reception, it will be one of the bits of the year. The Baker players are without exception pre-eminent in por traying eccentric characters, and in this piece they may indulge themselves to their hearts' content. None of them are "featured" especially, which gives everybody in the cast plenty of indi vidual opportunity. The 'period ot the play is 18S6, when the newly-organized Republican party was making its first Presidential cam paign with Fremont as its candldate The slavery contention enters into it largely; there is a great deal in the dialogue and action that proves of in terest to the student of American his tory. I siiould say that the most creditabl feature of "The Dairy Farm," as it i being offered at the Baker, is the ac curate costuming and properties. The ladies wear hoopskirts and pantalettes, and the men ruffled shirt fronts and the ultra peg-top trousers of the period. There are three horses and a flock of chickens, an entire stock of groceries for tho village store nnd many other details of production that are highly creditable to both the acting and me chanical forces. Miss Kent, Mrs. Nina Gleason, Maribel Seymour and Lillian Field in particular were dressed in the identical fashion of the 50's, while Edgar Baume and William Harris might have Just stepped out of a tailor's fashion plate of the antebellum days. , The silk dress worn by Mrs. Gleason, for Instance, in the third act Is upwards of 75 years old and is an heir loom of great value. The makeup of William Dills is the best farmer rig I've ever seen on the stage. Mr. Dills has caricatured the countryman so little that his appearance is practically a duplicate of types to be seen In any country com munity. The play is well acted. Miss Kent es pecially distinguishing herself by a sweet and sympathetic performance. Edgar Baume is entirely satisfactory as the young anti-slavery agitator. Maribel Sey mour Is the life of the show as usual in a part which suits her, and Arthur Mackley is thoroughly artistic as the hateful old miser, and Lucille Webster Is capital. Donald Bowles has a bit but makes It Important, and Howard Russell makes a deserved hit. Three members of the former Seaman Company are seen advantageously this week. Lillian Field is dellctously funny as the village belle, Leo Lindhard could not be improved upon in an old man character role, while Ethel Jones, although she's far too pretty to play the numbskull "rube" girl, makes the most of her op portunities. Go and see "The Daisy Farm-' this week. You'll like it. RADDING INCIDENT CLOSED Secretary of Campaign Committee of Labor Party Dropped. The expected did not happen at yester day's meeting of the executive commit tee of the Union Labor party. It had been intended to receive an explanation from E. E. Radding, secretary of the campaign committee of that organiza tion, for his failure to file the Labor ticket with the City Auditor In time to have the candidates nominated by the labor unions placed on the official ballot in the coming city election. But it ap pears that the incident has been closed following a long-range campaign of in terviews between T. M. Leabo and P. McDonald, on one side, and Secretary Radding, on the other. Radding says he refused to file the ticket for the reason that he would have been compelled to perjury himself if 'he, had complied with the laW Which required him to make affi davit that the nominees had been named by a mass meeting of 100 voters. He claims less than 50 electors participated in the meeting which nominated the ticket. At any rate, the subject was not dis cussed at yesterday's meeting of the exec utive committee which merely examined and ordered paid a number of bills that had been contracted during the brief ex istence of the Labor party. "Yes, the Radding affair Is a closed in cident," said a member of the commit tee yesterday, "so long as he remains away from our organization. So far as our erstwhile secretary is concerned, we have done with him." PERSONALMENTION. NEW YORK. May 26. (Special.) Northwestern people at New York ho tels: I From Portland C. M.

OFFICIAL. LIST ELECTED New Corporation Has a Iianrsult on Its Hands, for Suit Will Be Filed This Week by the Opposition. Permanent organization of the Board of Commissioners of the Port of Columbia was effected at a meeting of the com mission held In this city Saturday after noon. The Board merely assumed cor porate shape so as to be in a position to appear In court and make a defense In the suit which will be filed some time this week to test the -validity of the act by which the Port of Columbia was cre ated by the last Legislature. The of ficers elected are as follows: President, P.. D. Inman; vice-president. Sam H. El more; secretary. Dr. Andrew C. Smith; treasurer. J. C. Alnsworth. Governor Chamberlain announced the appointment of the members of .the com mission last Friday, the day on which the act creating the Port of Columbia went Into effect Immediately on an nouncing the appointments, the Governor forwarded the commissions . by mall. These were received the following day. and a meeting of the commission was convened in Portland. The members of the commission are: Dr. Andrew C. Smith. R. D. Inman and J. C. Alnsworth. of Portland. representing Multnomah County; W. D. Plue. of Columbia City, from Columbia County; and Sam H. El more, of Astoria, for Clatsop County. With the exception of Mr. Elmore, who Is out of the state, all of the members of the board attended Saturday's meet ing. Early this week. Frank J. Taylor, of Astoria, will begin a suit in the state circuit court attacking the constitution ality of the law establishing the Port of Columbia. Mr. Taylor appears as plain tiff for the Astoria people who are dis satisfied with the new commission under which the towage and pilotage services on the Columbia River between Astoria and the bar are combined. The Clatsop County people first sought to defeat the measure In the Legislature. Falling In that they have decided to take the mat ter into the courts, where they hope to prevent its operation on constitutional grounds. The legal firm of Dolph, Mal lory, Simon & Gearin has been retained to prosecute the case for the residents of Clatsop County. Attorney-General A. M. Crawford and Chamberlain & Thomas will appear as attorneys for the Port of Columbia. MANY ATTENDCLUB SHOOT Harry Ellis Leads and Carries Off Silver Medal.

It was the sec ond game in the Newspaper League, and Umpire Berry, manager of the Los Ange les club, gave the contest to the Journal by the small score of 21 to 3. Umpire Al Wlckham, who was endeavoring to keep track of what happened on the bases, seconded the motion and Mac Rae with drew his men from the grounds in dis gust after paying the management $2 for the sod and earth that had been mislaid during the struggle. The boy out at the score board got the Journals to stop after making nine runs In the first inning because he had no figure "10" to hang up ont in the middle garden. The game' began at 9:30 A. M.. and the defeat of The Oregonians may be at tributed to the fact that "Bill" Retrain and "Art" Greene, two of the morning paper's star players, refused to show up until after church.
