FEW questions asked by the Census
Office are of more Importance than
the place of birth of the individual

country which has received so many
immigrants and lost so few emigrants

whether more than 200, 900 Americans
by birth are living outside OF the
United States, while the number of
persons of foreign birth is probably
ten million.

FROM WEST TEXAS.

To the Eagle.
take great pleasure in writing
a short letter and telling my friends
how my Christmas was spent in
the far west. First am going to
tell you about the lovely Christ
mas tree. The crowd began COM
ing by 7 o'clock and by $ the
house was crowded to hardly
breathing room. The tree was
large, and beautiful, and hung from
top to bottom with valuable and
pretty presents. Everybody was
well remembered here by Santa
Claus. The sick and poor, high
and low were given something.
! never saw "a happy a crowd of
boys and girls in my life as were
present Christmas night.
There was plenty Of apples,
candy and nuts for every body
who cared to eat them. When
Santa Claus came in these words
came from all the little ones:
There comes Santa Claus. 1t was
really a treat to see them. Santa
in his usual way kissed and greeted
the little ones with promising
words and peals Of hearty laughter.
There,is not much noise or racket
here on Christmas, only the reports
Of anvils, cannon crackers, etc.
There were two funny jokes
played on two yonng men Of our
little town. The richest one ! am
going to tell you. The first was a
present given to a young man who
is very fond Of Jewelry, and |
think Santa Claus tried to satisfy
HIM in this line.
He received a watch and cham
(made Of from about four feet long
to which wax attached, not watch
but a large Irish potato. The
charms on it were, a paddock. a
hog tusk three or four inches long
and a frienpship heart made OF

fisherman. The modelling is admirable
and the mimicry is reinforced by the lib
eral use of color and of cloth, silk, and
other materials to form the clothing. The
| best quality are startling in their fidelity
to nature. The fgurines are made by a
guild which claims to four thousand years
old, and which Is certainly more than a
thousand years old. In the studios one
can see three generations working to-
gether upon the little modelling tables. In
general the men mould the figures and
the women whose skill is extraordinary,
make the clothing.
| A third local industry is the making of
paper and tinsel flowers and garlands. In
this field the Chinese are equal is not SUI
perior to the French. They manufacture
a hundred varieties of paper resembling
every important floral tissue. They make
paper that is hairy out of which they
fashion begonia leaves. They make a wax
paper for orange and lemon blossoms,
thin-ribbed papers for long grasses, cross
ribbed papers for bamboo leaves. mot
tied papers and spotted papers in shaded
colors which become petals and sepals in
the finished flower.
"A IOuTIl INDUSTRY WHICH seems 10 nave
escaped the notice of most travelery, and
which the writer was particularly inter-
ested in, is that in oils. Long ago the
Chinese perceived the Importance of this
class Of substances to the human organi-
zaion and devised a simple, though waste
ful method of manufacture. From the
bean they extract bean oil, which is used
for lighting, cooking and eating. The
peanut supplies an oil which compares
favorably with that OF the olive; in fact,
peanut oil to the finest brand of Lucca.
From the mustard they extract mustard
oil, which they use for rheumatism, neu-
ralgia, and for a counter irritant in
coughs and colds. From the peppermint
they draw at least four kinds of oil
which differ in color and viscosity. This
is their favorite remedy for all sorts of
ailments. There are various nut oils,
fruit oils, and vegetable oils similar to
the COLA oil OF Europe.
Last, I must pay a tribute to the in
genuity of the Tien Tsin natives in max
