eral occasions and has expressed HIM
self as being quite pleased with the
place. His visits have been for business
connected with the question OF leases OF
land for cattle grazing and similar pur-
poses. The various Secretaries Of the
Interior with whom he has come IN con-
tact all agree that he Is a person OF
ability and a high order OF intelligence
While in Washington he called AT the
White House to pay his compliments to
the big Chief" who is known and adj
mired and respected by all the red men.
He also visited the Capitol and sat IN
the gallery while the Senate and House
were in session. He was deeply i'm
pressed with the Senate. and IL was
probably on one Of these occasions that
he first conceived the idea OF being q
candidate for the United States Senate.
Prevented Ghost Dances.
Parker was one Of the influential In
dian chiefs who resolutely set his face
against the ghost dance. He is singu-
larly free from the religious supersti-
tons that work many OF the Indians
UP TO a state Of frenzy bordering on in
sanity. He was, however. compelled to
use tact and diplomacy in keeping most
Of the Comanches from participating in
the ghost dance. He sent for an Indian
who possessed several hundred head OF
4orses and cattle. most OF which had
been bequeathed 20 him by relatives who
were then rejoicing n the felicity OF
having made the journey 70 the Happy
hunting grounds. Quannah explained
that one Of the superstitions OF the
dance is that all OF the deceased reia-
tives OF the Indians shall come back to
participate in the festivities. Quannah
asked this particular Indian how he
would feel II his dead father and his
dead mother. when they came back to
life. should demand the return Of their
cattle and horses
The Indian thought this over carefully
and then assured Quannah that such 2
condition of affairs would never, never
do. and that he was unalterabiy op-
posed 10 the ghost dance IN any shape or
form. Then Parker instructed him 70
explain this TO all the other Indians who
possessed property OF cattle he did so,
and soon there was a strong. healthy
public sentiment against ghost Dances
1t stands to reason that a man with
chief Parker's mental equipment and
faculty Of leadership Is wasting his life
IN remaining on the alkaline plains OF
the Senate OF the United States remains
to be seen. The first step in that direc-
ton would be the admission into State
hood OF Oklahoma and Indian Terrific

his powers as a political leader and or

Comanchs Indians manage 20 live IN
peace and harmony with the other
tribes that go to make up the major
portion OF the inhabitants Of the Ter

The best evidence of the powerful and
t-eneficent sway that Parker has over
his tribe is furnished by the fact that
there has not been an uprising among
the Comanches for at least thirty years.

which he scrupulously observes.
When he is doing business with the
Indians he dresses as an Indian, with

ing headgear. feathers. blankets. moe

ing with the white man he adopts the
attire which obtains in civilized cities
H. the United States. It Is interesting
to note. however. that Parker. like
most Indians, Is hardly at ease IN a
plug hat. striped trousers. cutaway
coat. and an Ascot tie. On these Oc-
casions he shows a great weakness for

the navy which does not carry a dog,

Nothing makes more for the happi-

some animal. Men with no taste for

AS warships go out OF commission
crews and officers scatter. and pets are

many of them are known to half the

Major Billy. the famous goat which
served for thirteen years under the
Stars and Stripes. was probably better
known than any other mascot that
ever had a place in the navy. He died
on the New York at the time of the
Spanish war, and was universally
mourned.
Before the opening OF the war he was
on the Baltimore. which went out of
