MAN ASKS FOR DEPORTATION
To Win a $4,000 Wager Frenchman
Who Started Tour Years Ago In
Hurry to Return.

New York.-Louis Grandjean, who
declares that he will win $4,000 wa
ger II he arrives in Paris by July Is,
is. hoping to get the immigration au-
thorities to deport him.
Ten years ago, he says, he left Paris
to win the $4,000 stake put up at the
Jockey club there that before July Is,
1918, he could not visit every country
in the world, always working his way,
never being subsidized or accepting
charity.
Penniless and hungry, he applied to
the police for his arrest on charge
Of vagrancy, but when he found that
he might be sentenced to the work
house for six months he saw 1t would
interfere with his getting to Paris in
time, so he pleaded not guilty and was
released. He took the advice Of the
police and will seek to be deported.
Grandjean passed through New
York in 1908 and called upon Mayor
Mcclellan at the time. Since then he
has been all through this country, Can
ada, Japan, Australia, the Philippines,
Panama and South America. SO he
says.

also enters their breathing tubes, de-
stroying the tissues, and they soon
die. The oil must be applied about
once each ten Gays to keep the pool In
a safe non-breeding condition For
this purpose ordinary kerosene, which
can be purchased from any grocer,
will answer. Some prefer heavier
oil, called light fuel oil.
Oiling, at It's best, Is but tenn
porary expedient, and should be prac-
ticed on the salt marshes only until
the marshes can be drained. In mid
summer the tall vegetation often OBJ
scures many small breeding places,
and likewise makes 1t difficult to dis
tribute the oil on the surface of the
water, where needed. most Of it strik-
ing the vegetation.
A convenient method Of applying oil
is by means of small compressed air
sprayers with cylinders of galvanized
sheet iron. Each cylinder contains
pressure pump and will hold about
ten and one-half gallons of liquid 1t
may be carried In the hand or held by
a strap thrown over the shoulder.
Such an outfit, including short pieces
Of hose with nozzle, may be purchased
for about $3.50 A two-foot extension
rod is almost a necessity and costs
IS cents extra. Where large areas
are to be treated barrels Of oil should
be distributed at various convenient
points, in or around the marsh. The
amount of oil to be applied is one
fluid ounce to each Is square feet of
water surface. A less quantity will
often fail to kill the wrigglers.

Rose Dinner.

When roses are used for decorative
purposes the linen and china should
be Of the finest, while flowers never
look as beautiful as when carelessly
yet artistically arranged. Dainty
creams may be served in the hearts
Of roses, but these roses must be
made from the white hearts Of bleach
ed lettuce. Use roses to surround
dishes, but not to touch foods unless
candied leaves are served with bon
bons.
Decorate the chandelier, candelabra
and candles with silk roses, prefer
ably red for night, or pink and white
when candles are not lighted. Place
a rose with each dessert and float one
in each finger bowl Do not use a
profusion of flowers to give studied
effect, but use a sufficient amount Of
real roses ana artificial ones to look
tasteful, simple and charming.

guide mariners when approaching or
sailing along a coast or river. With
this object in view, lighthouses are
made Of different designs and painted
with different colors, and the lights
and fog signals are given different
characteristics, easily recognizable by
the navigator.
There are three lighthouses Of his
torical interest in this district. Cape
Henlopen light is one Of the Oldest in
the United States, having been erect
ed by the Colonial government in
1854. In 1889 the Federal government
assumed jurisdiction over this struc-
ture along with seven others.
The second, Brandywine Shoal light
house., is in the middle of Delaware
bay, distant eight miles from the sea.
It is the first lighthouse in the United
States to be erected on screw piles.
In this structure the lower ends of
the iron piles are provided with discs
or screws roughly resembling pro-
peller blade in appearance, which
were driven down into the bottom Of
the bay in the same manner as a
wood screw is screwed into a piece Of
wood. This lighthouse was completed
in 1850, but owing to general dete-
rioration 1t is proposed to replace the
structure with one Of uncompIeted re-
inforced concrete. When completed,
this will be the first lighthouse Of its
kind In the United States to be located
on submarine site.
The third, fourteen-foot bank light
house, about sixteen miles from the
sea, rests on an iron cylinder seventy
three feet high and thirty-five feet in
diameter. 1t is the first lighthouse in
the United States erected on caisson
foundation by the pneumatic process.
The shell was constructed on shore,
launched and towed to the site and
was then sunk to the bottom.
