AMERICA'S FOREIGN POPULATION As would naturally be inferred from the heavy immigration of the past few years, there was a large increase in the foreign-born white population of ttie United States in 1910 as com pared with 1900. The foreign-born whites who were here in 1910 number ed 13,342,500, a gain of a little over 3,000,000 in the decade. These num bers cover the contiguous part of the United States. They do not touch Alaska or the Panama Canal zone, nor Porto Rico, the Philippines or any other of our island possessions. Although a . large proportion of the immigrants settle in the states of the North Atlantic seaboard, many of them come to the West, principally to the states of the Northern tier. A much larger n imber of states, nowever, nave, among tneir people, a majority of native-born wnites of na tive parentage, and in seme of them they constitute two-thirds or more of the total. These states, in the order of the ascendency of their natives, are: West Virginia, Kentucky, Okla homa, Indiana, New Mexico, Tennes see, Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas North Carolina, Texas a.nl Mainq. The proportion of the natives range from 85.3 per cent in West Virginia to 66.7 per cent, in Ma'.m;. it is 72.5 per cent in Missouri, ronsidering its large Indian elemor; it is rather sur prising ip find that Oklahoma has a native white population of native par entage of i'O i per cflnt. 1 he T-lians are natives but they are not clossed as whites. Taking the states by groups, New England has the largest proportion of foreign-born whites, numbering nearly twer.ty-eigh;, per Cfnt of the total population ana the mountain division has tile smallest, tfi.s per cent. In general, or course, this fcreign-born citiinti is a valuable asHet for the country, but it li to be Trying to Teach Chil dren Too Much ' I WILLIAM J. GAYNOR 4 Mayor of New York City , 1 J- WE ARE NOW BRINGING BOYS AND GIRLS OUT OF THE COM MON SCHOOLS WHO ARE TAUGHT SO MUCH AND WHO THINK THEY. KNOW SO MUCH THAT THEY WON'T WORK ANY LONGER WITH THEIR HANDS. THEY SIMPLY SAY THAT THEY WON'T; THAT THEY HAVE BEEN EDUCATED. THEY SAY. "LET OTHER PEOPLE WORK WITH THEIR HANDS, AND WE V" L WORK WITH OUR HEADS." i - ' regretted that the old-time, predomi nance of the British Islands, Ger many and the Scandinavian countries among the immigrants, has been lost in the past two decades. Eastern and Southeastern Europe now lead among the incomers, but most of them are Americanized quickly. Since adopting Alaska as the start ing point the Weather Bureau has im proved in its predictions, and deserves acknowledgment for the bettered ser vice. Nearly a hundred inmates of char itable institutions in Berlin have died from poison' contracted by eating foods sent in as Christmas offerings by the "charitably disposed.'' A safe and sane Christmas seems to be de- manded in other parts of the world as much as in this. ' Former Immigration Commissioner John H. Curran rather blasts our hope of making . the dzark bound song the state song of Missouri by pointing out that it i3 really old and was carried into the Ozarks by the mountaineers of Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee. COLD WEATHER STARTS BIG CABBAGE DEMAND For the first time during the pres ent season a demand has appeared for cabbage. .With the colder weather and a lack of offerings the trade has begun to inquire for cabbage and sales are being made at a sharp advance. There seems to be no doubt that most of the cabbage remaining in this section was ruined by the late freeze. That some of this stock will be of fered to the trade temporarily is now likely, but everyone expects a severe shortage of good stock. The freeze has caused local handl ers to order supplies of California cabbage to fill the wants of their trade, but this is not expected to give satisfaction, as the offerings from that state seldom do. , For months cabbage supplies have gone abegging. In instances sales have been made at less than it cost to crate the stock; therefore, the mar ket as a whole has been entirely un satisfactory.

Yonkers Siah'siii.-in HAVE a notion that those in charge of the common schools in New York city and elsewhere are trying to do too much. I think we are trying to TEACH THE CHILDREN TOO MUCH. The result is that we do not teach them well. There are TOO MANY SUBJECTS TAUGHT TO THE CHILDREN, in my be lief. When you overload children they get a disgust for the whole thing, and they do not learn much. I know that was my experience when I was in the common schools myself. I think a large percentage, if not the largest percentage, of children in our schools are just SUBMERGED. They just about have their noses above water struggling to breathe. They have more than they can do. We try to teach them too much, and the result is they come out with a SUPERFICIAL KNOWLEDGE about a lot of things, but n accurate knowledge about anything. And another view of it is that this overeducating of them makes them DIS INCLINED TO. WORK WITH THEIR HANDS. That I am abrolutelv certain of.

Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. THE MYSTERY. In one of the ranges of the Rocky mountains is a certain sheer cliff. Halfway down the precipice is a grassy ledge where foot of man has never trod. Only the sunshine and the wind and the rains and the birds go there. ' - And- On that shelf of shale, inaccessible to man and but dimly shown though a powerful, glass, grow violets. Year by year they bloom there as do the violets down in the valley below. Year after year, through thousands of years perhaps, that shelving rock has held its banquet of blue. And for thousands of years, perhaps. May day will kiss the violets into bloom. Now - Do you fancy the charm of those un seen flowers is lacking, the coloring less delicate, the stems less graceful than the violets of the valley? Certainly not. And why? Of what use are the pret ty blooms?. No human hand can pluck them; no human eye can feast on them. Why the violets? Why did God make them? If they can neither be seen ,nor their fra grance known, nor plucked to put over the heart of woman nor to gladden the heart of a little cnild, what were they made for? What Is the mystery? Why Is it that "full many a flower is born to blush unseen?" For, mind you, there can be no doubt that an Increasing purpose run? through all. The bunch of violets on the perilous ledge is working at its secret destiny just as you and I are working away at ours. The violets do not know. We do not know. If we only knew! If we knew the secret of that mass of blue on that shelving rock we should know the se cret of our own lives and the riddle of the universe.. As Tennyson says: Little flower. If 1 could understand Wliat you are. root and all. and all in all, 1 should know what God. and man. is. ' We do not know, nor do the violets, "where his islands lift their fronded palms in nir." We only know, and the violets know, we "cannot drift beyond his love and care." TBE iiUMf.il UKUlt A lean, worn team of horses was hitched to a heavy truck filled with coal. - The tired animals thrusf their necks Into the collars and strained bard to keep the load moving. The street led up a sharp incline. There had been a slight snow, and the street was slip pery. The load was heavy enough without a hill to contend with. , There must have been hard hearts at the coal yard where this truck was loaded. The team tried to get a start up the hill and failed. The driver brought his heavy whip down on the backs of the poor brutes. They lunged forward, straining at the tugs. Their feet slipped. One went down, and the harness dragged the other one off his feet. And the driver? Without asking help .from any one in getting the animals to their feet he deliberately got down from his high perch and as deliberately gave each of the prostrate horses a kick In the ribs. The coward! He who kicks a horse-when-it is "lilies Is a;; m?aa as he who kicks n Who Will a Native Prince " have a splendid bridal ceremony when to the Maharajah Sclndia of Gwalior. of her father, the gaekwar, probably man when be is down. And it Is as brutal to kick a horse without provo cation as to kick a man without provo cation. Only there Is this difference The horse cannot fight back. The driver of that team would think twice before he mistreated a man. He might cherish a wholesome fear of getting what was coming to him. But the horse was effectually tied up In harness and defenseless. In this case I telephoned for a hu mane officer. A few weeks before" I had been in the tent of the boss hostler of a big circus. I asked him concerning the treatment of the fine, sleek horses un der his charge. "Kind treatment only. "If a hostler mistreats a horse" by beating or kicking he gets his time and is promptly discharged. I will not even permit my horses to be-spoken to harshly.'" Some of the owners of Kentucky thToughbreds are almost as particu lar concerning the treatment of their fine horses as about the treatment of their children. ' - Only a human brute will maltreat a dumb brute. , It is a great pity that in every such case of cruelty a like treatment can not be accorded the human brute. A Curiouj Oath. The following curious oath wasjintil recently administered in the courts of the Isle of Man: "By this book and by the holy contents thereof and by the wonderful works that God has miracu lously wrought in heaven above and in the earth beneath in six days and seven nights I do swear that I will, without respect of favor or friendship, love or gain, consanguinity or affinity. envy or malice, execute the laws of this isle justly between our sovereign lord the king and his subjects within this isle and between party and party as indifferently as the herring's back bone doth lie in the middle of the fish." London Standard. A Tudor Gallant. A gallant's toilet was no easy busi ness, and a slow or clumsy servant no doubt got many an oath and blow if he failed to tie up the points of- the hose, lace the doublet or arrange the stomacher and frilled shirt to Bis mas ter's satisfaction. A gentleman's dress had so many fastenings, with so much tying and lacing of his garments together, that It was impossible- that he should ever get costumed (sic) with out assistance. The long hose had to be securely tied by a number of latch ets to the doublet: the doublet itself was laced up the front, and the sleeves, being slashed to show the shirt sleeves, had also to be laced sometimes. "His tory of English Dress." A Grim Superstition. A curious superstition prevails -It, Morocco. If a man has a grudge against another he orocures some hu man bones and grinds them into fine flour which he mixes with his enemy's bread or other food. It is universally believed that the man who eats this horrible compound will begin to fade away and eventually die. V CONTROL OF THOUGHT. In the firm control of our thoughts lies the secret of the most wonder ful possession of which we can boast character. It is as much a matter of habit as of will, this being honorable, truthful, just. Having formed our principles of right living, conscience invariably points to a whole hearted loyalty to them. And when baser motives plead, why, here is just where your will power may profit by exercise. SPICY SPORT CHATS By TOMMY CLARK. "Somebody said 1 was worth, a quar ter of a million dollars a few days ago," said Battling Nelson to the writer recently. "I wish those who think 1 have that much would make up the difference between a quarter of a mil lion and what 1 really possess. "I have been In the fighting game for more than fifteen years and in that time have made quite some money, but it was not all profit Managers help themselves pretty well, and there is quite some personal expense attached to traveling around. Then there are the training expenses, and until recently a chap could not get on a match as ofteu as he wished. But I manage my own affairs these days and am a continu ous performer when I get a chance." Pugilist Use Novel Mask. Harry Forbes. Chicago's star' "come back" fighter, is now the man behind the mask. The former bantamweight champion, who has been stirring things up by bis return to form after an ab sence of four years from the ring, final ly has overcome what heconsiders the greatest handicap under which he has been boxing, but not without the aid of artificial means. In one of his first bouts after his re-entry into the game Forbes was butted in the eye by Young Togo, and a big gash was cut over the optic. In his training bouts since that time the old wound several times was reopened. Seeking a way to remedy his trouble, Forbes, while in New York recently, hit upon the novel idea of having a mask made which he could wear in training. The mask, made of leather, is padded with felt around the eyes. It has proved a success. Forbes In the accompanying photograph is shown wearing the mask in a training bout with Jack Herrick. another Chi cago fighter. Cobb's Ability Causes 'Jealousy. That internal dissension had much to do with the failure of the Detroit team last season is shown by the latest story of the run-in which Ty Cobb and Mo- riarity had and which determined Man ager Hughie -Jennings that his third baseman must go. That jealousy would develop among players on a team of which Cobb is a member might be suspected. Cobb is naturally al ways in the limelight by reason of his wonderful ability. Other players of ability are ignored. even though they are playing remark able ball, with the result that some of them at least blame Cobb for this state of affairs. No doubt Jennings has had his troubles because of these conditions, and unless he can bring about a change his chances to cut a figure in the next race will again be doomed. Sympathy of Fight Fans For Delaney. There is hardly a follower of the fight game in the country who is not pained to hear that Billy Delaney. the greatest of all trainers, is in very bad shape at Oakland, Cal.. with an illness which his physicians fear may end fa tally. They say he will never enter another training camp. If there ever was a true friend and honest adviser Delaney was that one. He is the only man who ever brought out two heavyweight champions and kept them on the top to live as won ders. They were Jim Corbett and Jim Jeffries. He took them when they were youngsters and made them title holders. He put Corbett In condition to meet Sullivan in New Orleans in 1892. When Corbett retired he developed Jeffries for the match in which Fitzsimmons lost his title. Delaney's last work was the training of Jack Johnson for the championship contest at Reno. Delaney and Jeffries fell out some years ago. and Bill was very bitter be cause Jeff once fought without his con sent. It hurt Delaney. and for re venge he seconded Jack Johnson against Jeff at Reno. There in the op posite corner were Corbett and Jeff, his oldchamps. but once again Bill pulled out with a winner. A few. more of .the Billy- Delaney type would help the boxing game a great deal. "Easy to Coma Back," Says Callahan. "Nothing so unusual about my com ing back and making good." remarked Manager 'Jimmy Callahan of the Chi cago White Sox recently. "You see, it was this way: When I quit the White Sox several years ago I turned over a new leaf and cut out tobacco and liquor in every form. And all the time I was out of organized baseball I was keeping in shape physically. Theu when I did come back it was as a live, wire and not njdead oue that's all." Cobb Will Never Manage Team. Ty Cobt) says he will never manage a ball clnb because he's going to quit just as soon as the zenith of bis career comes. The Japanese Way. The question of choice between two vases was decided by a patron iu a Japanese shop when the proprietor said: "That smaller vasie, madam, is thoroughly Japanese in form and deco ration. That floral pattern in gold around the 'upper half is characteris tic, and so, too, is the exceedingly uar row and short heck. The vase will bold but a single blossom that should be long stemmed and stand ifpright. Thus the flower will be individualized and the vase likewise. That is the Japa nese way " -.. v - lllll 11 EVANGELIST EVANS A lare-e aiiriiennp henrrl Pav T Bruce Evans at the Baptist church tuesaay evening. His subject was "The Decision of Moses."
