Nothing more clearly shows the
painstaking and careful farmer than TO
have fence corners between fields or
along the roadside kept free from
weeds, grass or shrubs. As a rule all
the old-tfme fence corners were kept
scrupulously clean. A good deal of
valuable hay was made from what the
scythe reached in and cut there. But
when the horse mower and the self
binding reaper came into use, it every
year became harder to find anybody
who could be hired to clear out the
fence corners. The result was that
the ak rather than the scythe was re-
quired. and the growth. instead of be-
ing restricted to fence corners, en-
croached each year more on the cult

LOVES HIS TRIBE,
Romantic History of Chief Quanah
Parker, of the COmanches.

Romantic History of Chief Quanah
Parker, of the COmanches.
Chief Quanah Parker, the Comanche
Indian of Oklahoma, has a romantic
history.
His mother was white woman who
was captured by the Comanches when
small girl and grew up among the In
dams, forgetting her own tongue. When
Gen. Mckenzie raided the Comanches
and captured the tribe in 1874 Quanah
Parker's mother, who had been taken as
wife of the chief, was among the num-
Der.
All that she could remember to iden-
tify herself was her name-Cynthia
Ann Parker.
She was finally located as being from
jackson county, Tex, where she was
joyously received by her family, after
having been looked upon as dead for
many years.
She took her son, now Chief Quanah
Parker. with her, and had him educated.
Later he returned to his tribe. He is
tall, fine-looling Indian, but he shows
no trace of his white blood.
The favorite of his five wives always
accompanies him on his journeys. as
does his young son, both of whom are
now in this city.
Chief Quanah Parker is quite rich
in cattle and money, and is looked upon
as one of the most intelligent of the
Indian chiefs.

INSANITY IN PRISONS.


Comparative Statement rs to the Num-

Albany, Aug. 1.-THE state prison
commission today issued statistics show
ing the number of convicts confined and
employed in the state prisons and coun-
~ penitentialies and the number that
have gone insane since Jan. last. as
compared with similar statistics for the
first eight months of 1896. This state
ment was prepared in consequence of
the reports that insanity was increasing
to an alarming extent in the Kings
county penitentiary, due to the idleness
IF prisoners.
Tha statement shows that there were
= eases Of insanity this year, compared
NiJh 81 last in the state prisons, and SO
this year compared with 90 last in the

In the penitentiaries 2,S62 out of $500
confined were employed as compared
with 1914 at work out of a population of

nection with this is a decrease in the
number confined of Gil, which leaves the
increase of idle and sick mon this wear
