For in view of the ira- portance of the tasks to be entrusted to the prince, I consider 1t imperative that he shall first of all thoroughly learn the internal conditions of his own land and have the feeling that he understands them thoroughly be- fore he, with his habit of making snap Judgments tending to exaggeration. busies himself with politics.
 His actual learning is still full of gaps, and at the same time he lacks the proper foundation. and for this reason 1t is absolutely necessary that his education be improved and com pleted. If he could be assigned to the office of civilian advisory official, and if he could later be connected with or even given a post in one of the administrative ministries, 1t would serve this purpose. But, in view of the immaturity as well of the mex perience of my eldest son, and also of his inclination to conceit. am compelled to decelare that it Is abso- lutely dangerous to bring him into touch with questions of foreign poll cy at this time. And while begging you to consider my communication as strictly confidential, count on your support in this matter, which causes me grave anxiety.

MASKED WOMAN {,
 ON WAY HERE

Another mystery has been brought to the attention of the police by the announcement of the proposed ar rival of a masked woman who, ac- cording to information received by the police, will alight from a train from New York on Sunday night or Monday morning fully masked and hiding her identity in every way. Much conjecture has been offered as to who she might be but according to the police she will be obliged to give an account of herself as soon as she arrives here before she will be allowed to wander about here.
 The woman is the same who was stopped by the police authorities in Washington who were under the inn pression that she might be connect ed with the spy system of Germany But for her ability to prove her identity it might have gone hard with her, but several prominent per- sons who knew of her but did not know her name, came to the front in her behalf.

 Williams principal defects at that time, as his father saw them, were "his habit of making snap judgments in a manner tending to exaggeration," lack of actual learning which was "still full of gaps" and "ap inclina- tion<to conceit." Here Is the text of the letter:
 My son, Prince Wilhelm, has with- out my previous knowledge expressed the wish to His Majesty William l., (Frederick then was still the crown prince) to become better acquainted with the operations of our ministries during the coming winter and learn that it is intended to employ him in the Foreign Office.
 ''Inasmuch as I have received no official communication to that ef- feet, I am compelled to turn to you in confidence to learn what has real- ly been decided on, and further to de- clare that,s despite the fact that I am in favor in principle of introducing my son into questions of the higher administration.
