At noon and at night the careful

If the terminals seem hot he turns on

Unless this precaution is taken the
battery plates may be warped SO that

Another thing to remember is that
summer heat increases the eyapora-

water must be replaced. Many driv-

distilled water into each cell every
week. OF course precautions must
be taken against putting in too much.

Man Without q Country
Puzzle to Government
Seattle Agitator,, Held for Sec
ond Time at Ellis Island,
Claims Citizenship

A man without a. country is being
held at Ellis Island by the Federal
authorities, who are puzzled over what
disposition is to be made of his case.
He is Mac Gregor Ross, an agjtator
from Seattle, held for deportation as
a supposed Scotchman.
England, however, has refused to is
sue passports to Ross, saying there is
no proof that he is of British birth.
Ross agrees with this version and in
sists that, to the best of his knowl-
e0ge, he was born in the United States.
he says he can remember distinctly
selling papers on the Bowery in this
city in 1864, as a boy of ten or eleven,
and that then he went into Pennsyl-
vania and drove a canal team in that
state.
1t is Ross's second trip to Ellis ISL
and. He was first taken there in Feb
ruary, 1919, with 200 or 500 other
alleged radicals, but was later released
by the Federal courts, after which he
reestablished himself in Seattle, where
ne owned home. He was arrested
again, charged with syndicalism and
advocating sabotage, and, though the
case never was tried, he. was turned
over to the government for depcrta-
ton.
Miss Rose Weiss, of the law office
of Charles Rccht, is planning to pro-
cure a writ of habeas corpus fer Ross,
on the ground that he believes he is a
citizen of this country and, therefore,
he cannot be deported. He was brought
to Ellis Island about two weeks ago.

aboard the steamships Mount Vernon
