THREE BIRTHDAYS
IN A SINGLE YEAR
Perennial Boy Immigrant, II
Times Deported, Makes His
35th Trans Atlantic Trip.

New York, May 24.-That distin-
guished transatlantic tourist, Bonnie
Axelrod, who has crossed the ocean 35
times, usually with Iron shackled to
hisWrists and ankles, is again knock
ing at Uncle Sans door. On II occa-
sions Bonnie has knocked, only to have
the door shut in his face and with rude
commands from the immigration au-
thorities to begone.
There are some queer things. about
Bonnie. Last year when he was over
here he was 13. Now he is 16. Hav-
Ing three birthdays in one year hasn't
strained Bonnie in the least. His
cheeks are rosy, his blue eyes are as
bright as violets In the early morning,
and his mouth Is always ready to
stretch into a winsome smile.
The secret of Bennie's jump In age
Is this: Since early In 1906 the boy
has been striving to enter this coun-
try. In that yea he ran away from
his fathers home in Odessa, slowed
himself away on a steamship and
eventually landed in New York. He
got as far as Ellis Island and was
promptly deported.
Since hen Bonnie has been coming
back almost with the regularity Of
clockwork. and usually he got no
nearer his goal than Ellis Island.
