B 831, Oregonian. Adv. " 1GIFT SITE OFFERED CITY DETE.VriO.V HOME GROUND OFFER MAY BE ACCEPTED. County Farm Land la Feasible Wo man, Who Withholds Name, Also Would Give Country Tract. 4 Portland may not have to buy a site for the proposed new detention home for women. As a result ot recent ne gotiations for sites offers were made yesterday of two sites, one free or charge and the other for the mere cost of a mortgage amounting to a small part of the assessed value of the tract One offer, which is tentative, is that of County Commissioner Holman for a part of the large tract occupied by the Multnomah County Farm. The other is a tract of 2a acres two miles from Oswego, which has been offered by a woman whose name has been withheld. at her request. ' The offer of a part of the County Farm was made by County Commis sioner Holman in ajetter received by the City Commission 'yesterday. The woman in question offered , to give the city 25 acres of ground par tially cleared, two miles from Oswego. The tract has a mortgage of $1600 against it, which the city would as sume if the donation should be ac cepted. This woman, it is said, is interested in the work for the betterments of women of the underworld, and is doing a great deal of good along this line. The land is said to be excellent for farming and 'valued at between $400 and $500 an acre. Mayor Albee said yesterday that he intends to consider the offers at once. His first move will be to negotiate with the Board of County Commis sioners. He also will confer today with the woman who has made the offer. This sudden turn in the proceedings probably has eliminated the tract of 31 acres near Troutdale, offered by H. C. Campbell for $8000.

STORM TALK IS FAUX PAS Chicago Business Man Says Heavy Rains Already Forgotten. "Residents of Southern California re fuse to admit now that there were any hard rains there this Winter,". said George Edward Robinson, a Chicago business man who, with Mrs. Robin, son, is in Portland en route to his home. "It is remarkable how quickly they flare up when anyone criticises their weather. - . "We were in Los Angeles during the storm, and I have never seen nor heard of anything like it. The most remark able part of it, however, was the way the Californians tried to ignore the fact that anything serious was happening. The debris was hardly cleared from the streets until they stopped talking about it, and anyone who mentions the storm now commits a faux pas." Mr., and Mrs. Robinson are highly pleased with Portland. They will spend several days visiting relatives in this city and In Forest Grove. 01 SEN ACCUSED IN SUIT Abatement Case Begun Against Chi nese Woman, 42 6 Everett Street.
