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

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

pointing out that it i3 really old and

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. Prevailing Oregon City prices are as

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."

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

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 "
