Spokane No. May Organize Auxiliary
Great Time Is Expected at Insti-
tuition Of Nest Tonight.

Nest No. 2, of the Brotherhood of
Owls will be instituted Thursday even
ing of this week in the lower Pacific
halls, says the Spokane Chronicle.
The nest will be instituted by the
grand ne st officers who will come from
Walla Walla to do the work. 1t is eX-
pected that at least 40 birds will make
the trip from Walla Walla to see that
things are started off with a whirl. H.
L. Leavitt, grand executive, will head
the party and will be accompanied by
most of the other grand nest officers.
Secretary pro TEN NJ. c. Conley state s
that there will be between 40 and so
members in the new nest Thursday
evening. Temporary officers have been
selected to pre- side over the meeting but
after the institution of the nest a new
set will be selected. 1t is expected the
officers already chosen will be confirm
ed and will hold the offices for the
present term.
A ladies' auxiliary has been planned
by the order and it is thought one will
be organized soon after the new nest
is settled down to business. No. l at
Walla Walla has an auxiliary which is
meeting with success. Charity is the
motto of the auxiliary and the field is
wide. NJ. C. Conley in speaking of the
matter said it was a little premature

Prince Augustus William of Prus-
STA. who is to pay a visit to America,
next year. is the kaiser's fourth son
and will celebrate his twentieth birth,
d.. in January, says the special cor
respondent of the Minneapolis Journal.
He is a tall. well-built. handsome young
man has already served as an officer

is Low student at the University OF
P,nn. where all the royal youths of
Germany, receive their higher educa-
ton.
The prince. from his earliest child
hoCi. has been subjected to rigorous
systc IL of training. The kaiser has
Srartan ideas about the relations OF
parents to children and imposes his
sovereign will on his sons without re-
st ANT. They have all been compelled
tn undergo the most severe form of
prussian military discipline from their
infancy upwards. Beginning on their
sixth birthday, they have been Obliged

Gale, to a hard and fast
system laid down for them by peda-
gOSiC experts.
Prince Augustus William underwent
all his. but yet he has grown up to be
S, Ching different from his own
,rOtters. 1t has been a tradition from
time immemorial that the princes OF
the house of HOhenZOllern shall en-
brace a military career. and live and
die as officers of the Prussian army.
All the other five sons of the kaiser
are. or will be, professional fighters.
but Augustus William has manifested
a strong desire TO break loose from
this custom and to devote himself to
the civil service. This inclination in
itself marks him out as prince of
some originality and strength of char
acter. The kaiser. who is by no means
bound down to ancient traditions and
is imbued in some respects with a
spirit of modernity. is willing to &C
cede to Augustus Williams desires and
to allow him to be the first Prussian
prince to remain civilian. His mil
ita~y career will, therefore, terminate
with another six or twelve months
service in his regiment of guards. and
thereafter he will devote himself to
the pursuits of an official of the civil
service.
The final stage of his training will
thus be different from those of most
Prussian princes. He himself has eX-
pressed the desire to widen his eXpe-
rienceS and to gain an insight into the
most muderp and enterprising country
of the world by paving a visit to the
United states. The kaiser. who en-
