Prominent Spokane Business
Men in WaIIa Wa|Ia.
BIG TIME SCHEDULED FOR ToNI6AT
Will Take Number of Walla WalIans
Across the Burning Sands Of
the Desert.

eager for the hard work and fun that
is on the program for tonight. about
IS prominent business men of Spokane
arrived in Walla Walla in two special
Pullman sleepers this morning. Every
one is member of Ell Katif Temple,
Ancient Arabic Order Of Mobiles of
the Mystic Shrine located at Spokane.
They came to Walla Walla principally
for the purpose of assisting the local
members of the temple in escorting
across the sands of the desert about
25 Masons who have been clamoring
many months for the opportunity of
riding the camels and enduring the
hardships of reaching that oasis to
which every Mason turns his eyes.
That their hopes will be realized is
fully guaranteed by the Spokane
Shriners and they claim that they have
got the ceremony down pat so that
the innocents will get everything that
is coming. All the Walla Walla ap-
plicants today took out an additional
amount of life insurance and arranged
their worldly affairs so that should
they never return to their homes their
families will be well provided for.
The ceremonies will take place in
the Masonic temple and will be COM
menced just after the sun has gone
down. Owing to the large class that
will be given the work it will probably
be late Sunday morning before the
ceremonies have been completed.
During the night some time the local
members of the order will provide their
which is as follows:
Blue Point oysters, Mignonette
Sailed Almonds
COnsOmme en- Tassee

Taking in the City.
This morning the Spokane visitors
were up bright and early and during
the forenoon they put in the time
viewing the city and calling on the
merchants Many of them went to
the penitentiary and the garrison and
others drove through the residence
district of Walla Walla. This after
noon they all went to the races and
had a good time.
The Badges They Wore.
The spirit in which these seasoned
shieks of the mystic oasis of Masonry
have come to Walla Walla was shown
by the badges they decorated them
selves with after breakfast at the
Dacres this morning. What do you
think of this was pinned on the ample
breast of many of the visitors: Il Will
Be Put to Bed in Due Time seemed
to be another faVOrite; several seemed
to think The Pen Is Waiting for Me"
more appropriate. while "Dr. BlalOck
Will Take Care of Me" was thought
by many to hit them in the proper
spot. The different badges were the
occasion of much sport among the
delegates.
