Artist Plies Brus n
AT Ellis Island as He
Pleads to Enter U. S.
Italian, Barred Because of
Slight Deafness, Finds Col
orful Subjects and Work
Wins Praise of Officials

Michele Califano, an Italian painter,
who is held at Ellis Island pending his
appeal from an order of deportation, is
finding many subjects for his brush
in the colorful crowd in the detention
quarters, and is not worrying about be-
ing deported. On his arrival here q
month ago, physicians found he was
slightly deaf and a special board of
inquiry decided he might become a
public charge if admitted.
Califano said yesterday that his
deafness would not interfere with his
painting, and he was confident that he
would find ready market for his work.
He has been painting, he said, since
he was nine years old. He studied at
the Naples Institute of Bellies Arts, and
has been a pupil of Volpe, Mancino,
Michetti, De Saints and Giuseppe Cas-
ciaro.
His paintings had been shown nine
times at the Naples Exposition of Art,
he said, and every time he exhibited
there he won prizes. A picture called
Via Arinella, which is regarded as his
best work, was bought by the city Of
Naples and is on exhibition there.
A picture of Gladys Boudewyne, p
child immigrant from Holland, which
Califano painted Saturday, was praised
by Mrs. L. NJ. Harris, director of the
division of immigrant care, and by
Harry R. Lands, Assistant Commits
sioner of immigration.
1t is not alone on his reputation as
an artist that Califano is relying to
gain admission to the United States.

Buster Bear Teases Prickly Porky
BY Thornton w. Burgess

Most people lave to believe what

Fox when he saw Buster Bear actual
" step aside for Prickly Porky the
Porcupine. Had any one told that
young Fox that great big Buster Bear
you'd get out of the way for Prickly
Porky he wouldn't have believed it.
But seeing it was another matter.
Prlck!y Porky took no notice Of
Buster Bear. He simply shuffled
along, quite as if he were all alone
For moment Buster Bear watched
nm. Then Buster actually grinned.
lie reached out big paw and dug
up pawful of soft earth. This he
tossed on Prickly Porky.
:, Ihen Prickly Porky took notice.
Yes. sir, he did so. You see, that
pawful of earth landed on his head
he WASH quite sure what this meant.
II might mean that Buster Bear was
actually going to try to kill him. He
shook his head angrily. Then he
turned and shuffed straight at Buster
Bear. At least it looked that wav TO
the young Fox. The young Fox held
ms breath Could it be that that lit
1e prlckly stranger was actually
gong TO fight Buster Bear? 1t GER
10y Ao0Aeu tAaL way.
Buster Bear backed away rather
hurrledly. Prickly Porky kept right
on The truth is, Prickly Porky had
seen an old log close to where Bnster
hsd oeen standing. He was making for
that old log, and not for Buster Bear
at all. When he reached that old loo
ne poked his head Under it as far as
ne could, and then he remained rieht
there, perfectly still. The young Foy
couldn't understand this at all. You
see, he didn't know that underneath
Prickly Porky has no sharp little
spears to protect him and that the
first thing he thinks of iys time Of
possible danger is protecting him
self where long claws like those Of
Buster Bears might hurt him. With
ms head part way under that old log
and erouching close TO the ground
there was no chance for those long
claws to slip underneath.
Buster sat up and watched hin,
with twinkling eyes. Then he began
to walk around Prickly Porky. But
he took &he greatest care not to wall,
toe near. The young Fox noticed
this Round and round walked Rus
ter Bear, and still Prickly porkv
didn't move. Presently Buster dup
up another pawful of soft earth and
tossed 1t so that it fell close to
Prickly Porky.

Mendel Bells, Whose Sensa-

Glad To BE in America
Long in Cars Dungeons
Satisfied if Suffering Aided
in Ending Regime of

Mendel Bells, the Jewish workman
of Kiev, Russia, whose trial in 1918
upon the farcical charge of ritual mur-
der attracted the attention of the civil
lzed world, has brought his family
to this city and is now established here
as master printer He has opened
small shop, it was learned yester-
day, at 1873 Second Street, and has
provided home for his family at
1901 Faile Street, the Bronx.
Bells has been in New York for
about year and eight months, but
only few weeks ago His business
is prospering and at last he is attain
ing the peace of mind and happiness Of
which he says he dreamed as pris
oner in the dungeons of Russia from
1911 to 1918.
at is all past and do not want to
pose as martyr" he said yesterday.
"They tell me, and l believe, that my
sufferngs had much to do with forcing
worldwide attention upon the woes of
my people under the Czarist regime
and bringing about the downfall Of
Russian knout wielders. But it is past.
l have not asked for money. l am
trying to earn a peaceful living.
wish all governments were like that
here, where everybody enjoys bless
ings and liberty"
BELLS came here in February, 1921,
from Palestine, where he went in 1914,
shortly after his acquittal and where
he had worked seven years as q vine
yard tender. The war brought troubles
to the land, he said, and he naturally
turned to America.
In 1911, when Bells was superinten-
dent of brick kiln in the city of Kiev
employing 600 men, thirteen-year-old
boy named Andruchi Yashinsky was
found murdered in the outskirts Of the
town. Bells was the only Jew in the
entire community Of 10000 inhabitants,
and was arrested by officials of the
town upon the revived medieval myth
that he had killed the boy to obtain his
blood for religious ritual purposes. He
was confined in dungeons for two years
before he was brought to trial.
The superstitious nature of the
charges made Bells center of inter
est for the entire world. At the end of
thirty days trial he was acquitted by
the jury after two hours deliberation
1t subsequently developed that a wom-
an named Vera Cheberisk, who had
testified against Bells at the trial, had
confessed to killing the boy in COM
pany with a band of thieves, and was
executed. In the course of her confess
sion she gave as her motive that the
boy, companion of one Of her broth
ers, had discovered that she had stolen
goods in her house.
