OF his ambitions-a seat in the United
States senate. Quanah Parker is the
name of this remarkable Indian. He
is the head chief of the Comanches
and their all-powerful leader. He has
always been the ally of the white man
and by his peaceful, yet powerful, lead
ership has brought his tribe from pow
erty to agricultural alEluence and to a
well-ordere6 social state He is au
accomplished scholar and linguist,
trained athlete, an expert horseman
and a millionaire. He is the owner of
thousands of acres of well-tilled farm
lands and lives in magnificent man
sion. To the great Richelieu there was
no such word as fail and to Quanah
Parker there is no such word as i'm
possible" He has banished this word
from the Comanche language. When
told that it seemed impossible that he
should ever become a member of the
United State senate, he said; 1T is
my wish 1t will be fulfilled. The
word impossible is not in the Ian
guage of the Comanche." Those who
know him do not doubt him, for they
recall the many remarkable things
that he has already done.
Quanah Parker inherits his peace
full disposition and his love of the
white man from his mother who was
a white woman. His grandfather, the
great Comanche chief, Quanah, when
on the war path at the head OF 1000
of his braves attacked old Fort Parker
on the Texas frontier and massacred
all the men, boys and women, spar
ing only the young girls. These were
carried away as squaws and slaves
Among the number was Cynthia Ann
Parker, a beautiful 9-year-old child.
The old chief was so struck with her
beauty and intelligence that he de-
termined that she was white chiefs
child and resolved that she should still
be the child of a chief. He adopted
her and placed her in the care of his
squaws. He surrounded her with all
the comforts and luxuries that he
could provide. She became used to the
ways of the Indians, learned to love
them and was happy with them. She
grew to be a beautiful woman and then
old Quanah gave her in marriage to
his son and successor, Peta Nacona.
Their first child was a boy and they
named him Quanah Parker, after his
grandfather and his mother, and it is
he who is the subject of this article.
He learned the ways of the Indians
from his companions and his mother
taught him many of the gentle les
sons that white children learn. He
was a remarkably strong and intelli-
gent boy and his tribe looked upon
him as giving promise of becoming as
great hero as his grandfather. He
was passionately fond of his mother,
and all the wild instincts OF the In
dian race was subserved to her will
Her fate was the tragedy OF his life,
His father, Nacona, was as fierce a
warrior as old Quanah. and his hatred
for the whites was equally as great.
While on the war path his camp was
surprised by Lieut.. Ross, who after
ward became governor of Texas, and
the whites took many prisoners,
among them the white squaw of the
dreaded chief. Nacona. Afser twenty
ave years of searching Cynthia Ann

GUARDS
CONTEST
LUNATICS
Become Frenzied During Hos
pitaI Fire
Lack Concerted Action Alone
Prevents Wholesale Escape.

A fire at the New Jersey state hos
pital for the insane, at Morris Plains.
Tuesday night, caused wild excite
ment among the $500 patients. The
guards were only able to restrain them
by the most vigorous efforts. When
the fire was first discovered in the
laundry the patients were hastily
brought to gether in the yard and sur
rounded by a gordon of guards and
attendants, who held them back when
they made a dash for freedom
AS soon as the flames were discov-
cred most Of the guards and attend
ants were sent to the various wards to
get the patients out None of the vio-
lently insane or criminals were in
the threatened building, but the alarm
of fire caused those whose minds were
but slightly unbalanced to become
frantic with terror. Nearly all the pa
tients were in the dormitories, which
made the task of getting them out of
the building much easier, as they
could be marshaled as at regular drill
the fire a few patients who could be
trusted were left. The others were
marched from the building. Although
they were greatly frightened, a few
soothing words from the guards paci
fed them, and there was little trouble
until they were all assembled in the
yard. Here they again became panic
stricken, and many tried to break
through the line of guards. The wo-
men seemed more frightened than the
men, and several times they led the
dashes for freedom. Had there been
any concerted movement the whole O.
500 would have escaped Groups of
20 or 30 would make a sudden run to-
ward the guards, and the latter would
have hard work making them go back
into the crowd with the others. This
would work the others into a frenzy,
and another group would charge toward
another part Of the line, only to be-
driven back.
Men and women used their fists
freely and several Of the guards were
badly bruised by the struggling mob.
As far as could be learned no one es-
capped.
When the flames were extinguished
the patients were led back to their
dormitories. The financial loss was
small.

HOCH
DER
KAISER!
William is Going to Visit
His Majesty Eager to See
America.

Emperor William of Germany in
tends visiting the United States next
year and will be in Washington at the
time that the statue Of Frederick the
Great, that he proposes giving the
United States, is unveiled in this city.
This news comes directly from dip
lomatic channels, and the fact that
William intends visiting here is well
understood by the president and cab
met, having been privately communi-
Gated to them at the time that Emper-
or William sent his message offering
to present to this government the sta
tue of his illustrious ancestor.
OF course the whole matter of his
visit to Washington is still in the EN-.
bryo state, but the intention to make
the trip is firmly lodged in William s
mind, and he has strongly intimated
that he will come If affairs of state
can be arranged to permit such visit
being made. There is no intimation
as TO when the statue will be unveiled
here, If accepted by this government
but it is estimated that 1t will take
about a year to cast bronze statue
such as William proposes sending, get
It to the United States and arrange
the necessary details for the ceremo-
MES Even this does not contemplate
that an original statue shall be made,
but merely that a replica of some al
ready existing statue of Frederick the
Great shall be cast. There are a
great many such statues, of splendid
proportions, in Germany, and Ger
mans here believe that William will
choose to present a replica of an ex-
listing statue rather than trust to the
uncertainties of an original In his
message to the president, Emperor
William did not say whether the
statue would be original or not, mere
ly designating It as "a statue in
bronze"
Emperor Williams contemplated
trip here was discussed at consdera-
BILE length at yesterdays cabinet
meeting, and there naturally was a
good deal Of speculation about it's pur-
pose Whether 1t is a spontaneous
impulse of an impulsive ruler. or
whether there are deep diplomatic de.
signs over this great display of friend
ship on the part Of Germany is not yet
revealed to Washington statesmen.
The president will at an early day
ask congress for authority to accept
the statue on the part of the United
States and he will also ask congress
to provide a site upon which IL can be
erected I'm the city of Washington.
There will be no opposition, so far as
can be ascertained, TO the entire pro
and one of the best sites in
the entire city will be picked out for
the emperor's gift.
Denials are fully expected to follow
the publication Of the fact that Will
liam intends coming, because II had
not been intended that anything
should reach the public on either side
Of the water until the plans are well
developed Whatever denlals may
come, the cold fact remains that the
Intention exists and has been commu-
nicated TO Washington.
