The only drawback about it is that It's build makes it difficult vessel to sail That is why sampans sometimes are blown clear across the Pacific ocean. They cannot sail into the wind like our smart sailing vessels can, and in head winds they became excessively awk- ward things to handle.
 But their high sides and big bows dn sterns make them dry and pre- vent the seas from washing over them So, while crew of a sampan may be quite helpless in big gale, the men are in no danger so long as they are far enough from shore to be in no per- il from rocks or bars. s.
 The sampans are built of pine. When designed to be handled by two men, they are about twenty feet long on the top deck while the keel is only six feet long. Such a boat does not draw more than twenty inches of wa ter. l, ..~5so
 The stern is very high and hangs over the vessel. Part of this stern IS inclosed, and in its flooring is hole through which is thrust the immense oar that serves as a rudder. This stern is about three feet wide.
 The gunwae overhangs like the stern, extending a foot beyond the hull all around the boat. On top of 1t is a plank six inches high.
 In the bow is another raised struc- ture, a large cubby-hole affair, in which the men store extra sails, nets, anchors and fishing lines.
 In the middle of, the boat on the bot tom are from seven to nine queer little compartments, with holes in the bot tom, closed by wooden plugs When these plugs are pulled out, the water pours in and fills the compartments These are used to keep fish alive until they are brought to market.
 The small sampans are very cheap to build. They cost about eighty dol lars. Big ones, large enough to hold a crew of from five to seven men, cost from one hundred and twenty-five to one hundred and seventy-five dollars.

Complegne to shoot when this repast took place. After his third helping. Carlos, with a look of supreme satis- faction, laughed, and exclaimed; 'Je men suits bien regala. Il h'y qU'en France ou on trouve de plats aussi del- icieux.'' CThat goes to the spot. It's only in France one finds such delicious dishes.) The president sent word to his chef of the fattering attention paid to the poulet saute la sauce Toulouse by his majesty the King of Portugal, who degustalt the dish as conscien- tiously as though he were the member of a culinary jury at an exhibition.
 It may be of interest to know how the fowl saute, or lightly fried in but ter in a copper steWpan, was dealt with by the chef. When the frying part of the operation had ended, the cook withdrew the fowl and added a strong clarified broth made with hen and knuckle of veal, and allowed to boil down. He next added carefully peeled truffies meant to be sliced as garniture, cocks combs and mush- rooms that had been steeped in acidu- lated water. These ingredients were withdrawn as soon as cooked, and the sauce further enriched with the jelly roasted fowl give out when left to cool, with four tablespoonfuls (the propor- tion for each polet) of Sauterne wine. Wine and jelly he added little by little, and after a boil of a few minutes strained and skinned the sauce again, and then restored to it the truffies, this time sliced, the cocks combs and so on. Meanwhile the fowl had simmered in bouillon supreme or clear chicken broth, from which it was finally taken and allowed to drain, and with the Toulouse sauce poured over it, ent to table, English cooks have no idea what trouble the French chef takes with his sauces. The sauce, Verdier of the now defunct Maison Doree used to say, is the touchstone of the cooks artistic talent. I do not think that health gains from lunching on such luxurious food, and that poulet a la sauce Tou- louse would be more wholesome cooked by some petite bourgeoise of Toulouse, like, say, Madame Humbert mere be- rore her husband attained the proud eminence of keeper of the seals and president of the audit courts. The King of Portugal has extensive and splendidly stocked preserves. Mime. Loubet, who had been at pains to as- certain his gastronomic taste, instruc- ted the cook therefore to be sparing of ganle-London Truth.

A ROYAL EPIcURE.
Some of the Good Things the French
 men Gave Him to Eat

Some of the Good Things the French
 men Gave Him to Eat.
 The King of Portugal would have liked to prolong his stay in this pays de la honne cuisine. He carried away with him a store of culinary impress sions which it will be pleasure to re- member in Lisbon, where cooking is much neglected art and the markets supply few viands worth the attention of distinguished gourmet. The great culinary treat of the king and queen is the leg of Landes mutton roasted and served a Ia Bretonne, or with mashed potatoes done in the French way. The mutton is sent to them by friends at Bordeaux, by sea and in refrigerator. Portuguese mutton is lean and stringy, and only good for broth, or to be cooked in the Arab fashion with rice. King Carlos prefers Welsh mutton to any other. I have not the slightest doubt that if some aspiring English man from time to time shipped choice legs of this kind to the palace of Be- lem he would some day receive in to- ken of appreciation a patent of Portu- s bon of Christ Of Portugal.
 The Due Chartres had King Carlos, who is his nephew-in-law down to his place near Chantilly, and went care fully over the menu which his chef drew up for the lunch to which he had invited the royal wanderer. He sug- gested the substitution of une darne de saumon sau beurre Montpelier for filets de brochet a la Bourguignonne-a too plain allusion to the descent of Carlos from Robert, son of Hugues Ca- pet, and Duke of Burgundy of the first line. The darne is a slice of salmon boiled, to be eaten cold, in a court bouillon of white wine favored with slices of carrots, onions and small very small--bunch of chervil, parsley and taragon. The accompanying sauce is a rnayonnaise made green with the delicate garden herbs which the French use in salad. The beurre Montpelier is fresh butter passed, with enough of spinach to make it green, through a sieve. To hide the livid color of a slice of boiled salmon this butter is spread evenly over it, and sliced truff1es and whites of eggs are used to ornament.
 Some cooks also pin on with orna- mental silver skewers pink. prawns or crevettes roses, and border the dish with crayfish. The ruddy color of these decorative details give value to the green of the beurre Montpelier This dish, perhaps, would not be good for a sufferer from arthritis, bot it is one to be appreciated by a prince who is at once gourmet and gourmand, and who comes from a land on on ne mango pas bien (where the people don't dine welD. The darne de saumon is said to have been invented by the illustrious Caremo. At luncheon in M. Loubet's railway palace car the king twice asked to be helped again to a salute de poulets la sauce Toulouse. He and the president were on their way to

WAR VETERANS.

It is not always true that war short ems life. The sole survivor of the Greek war of independence, who was brought to the notice of King George the other day, is said to be one hundred and five years old, and the last survivors of our wars have often reached a much great CT age. Sir Joseph Fayrer, one of the kings physicians, has spoken to man who fought in the battle of Buxar, which took place in 1764. William Gil- lespie, who saved the colors at Preston Pass, and is on the roll of Chelsea pe11- sioners, died in Dumfries at one hum dred and two, and the last survivor of the capture of Gibraltar lived to be one hundred and fifteen. Thomas Wimms, who died in 1791, near Tuam, in Ireland, had fought in the battle of Londonderry in 1701, and Phoebe He's sel, the Amazon, who received bayo- net wound at Fontenoy in 1745, lived to be one hundred and eight, receiving a pension from the private purse Of George ". until her death. A veteran of Culloden drew a pension for sixty years, and died aged one hundred and six, and a man. whose horse was shot under him, at Ergehill in 1642, died, ninety-four yearse later, aged one hun- dred and thirteen. There is now no survivor of Waterloo, but Madame Civ ron, of Viesville, Hainault, saw the ground drenched with blood, and Ma poleon riding "as if in a dream. Lon don Chronicle.

THE TRANSFERS STRIKE.
(continued from First Page.)

noon papers yesterday in a statement made that E. I. Atwater, l.. A. Mans field and F. B. Street attended the teamsters' meeting Monday night. Those gentlemen, when inquired of on the subject, said the statement was an error. The meeting they attended was that of the employers or bosses of team- sters, not that of the teamsters. They were at the bosses meeting as repre- sentatives of the Business Mems asso- citation with reference to taking steps, in due time, to the end of ending the strike on terms agreeable to both par ties.
 The livery stable owners met in room AT, Insurance building, last evening. They met in executive session, and at the conclusion of the meeting they said they had no news to give out in refer ence to the session.
 A delegation from the Stationary En- gineers' union attended the meeting in Union hall last evening and pledged their support, as did a delegation from the Freight Handlers union. It was stated last evening that the stationary engineers would refuse to use any more coal brought by non-union drivers, and that the freight handlers would refuse to handle any more freight brought by non-union drivers. It is thought that both these bodies may strike to-day out of sympathy.
 The executive committee of the busi- ness men held meeting in their rooms in the Insurance building yesterday af- ternoon. The meeting was called for the purpose of acting on a resolution presented by Secretary Lindsley.s It was in reference to the association talk ing some action to bring about more satisfactory arrangement between em- ployers and, employees. After a discus sion of about two hours the resolution was passed.-,,.,s ..., .--. ~
 It is thought that the Business Mems association will take some immediate action in an attempt to settle the team sters' strike.

WONDERFUL vENTR1LoQuIsT.
Edward F. Reynard at PoIi's Can Dis.
 guise His Voice

EuWdFu F. HsyuarQ at 9Qll Cau DlS- guise His Voice.
 A more ingenious or novel sketch in ventriloquism than Edward F. Rev nard is presenting at Polis this week would be difficult to imagine.
 Something more than ability to dis gulse the voice is required. and that something is imagination. Reynard has the trait developed to an unusual degree. The properties and settings denoted this.
 When he presented his animated fig ures and elaborately staged act last night few could believe the entire act was performed by him.
 Reynard can deceive a person only few feet away. He can project his voice so the sound seems to come from another part of the room He can hold his face close to that of a dog or cat and, by making the animals jaws move as he speaks, he almost deceives you into believing that it is the animal speaking. He is the wonder of the bill this week. 5#

-. ron to assist in the greeting, was anoth- CT instance of the cordial relations ex- isting between the two nations. Presi- Gent Roosevelt said he appreciated the evidence of friendship and begged that his good wishes be given to the king.
 Before entering his carriage MT Roosevelt stepped up to the locomotive and warmly shook hands with the en- gineer and fireman, who had piloted him safely from the south. In the parade the line was headed by a troop of color ed cavalry, this being the first instance in the west where negro soldiers have held the position of honor in a public procession. Following the president came United States troops from the lo- cal posts, sailors and marines, from the warships in the harbor and at Mare Isl- and, regiments of the state militia and a number Of semi-military organiza- 5 tions.. A notable feature was the fancy marching os the Cleveland Grays. who came from Ohio to participate in the California greeting. After reviewing the parade the president was escorted to the Y. M. c. A. building. where a throng had assembled to participate in the burning of mortgages and notes rep resenting the total indebtedness of $115,- 280 upon the property. The president, by request, touched lighted match to the documents. He joined with the as- semblage in singing Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow"
 The president was banquetted to- night at the Palace hotel by the citi- zens' committee. The dining room was decorated with iris and roses. The tables were arranged to seat thirty-six persons each. except the table of the honored guest, which ran the entire length of the room. and to which the others were placed at right angles. In- mediately back of MT. Roosevelt's chair was draped presidential flag. To the right of Chairman M. Fl. DeYoung sat the president, Governor Pardee, Secre- tary Loeb, Admiral Bickford. R, N. Rixey, surgeon general; Admiral Kempf, and President Butler of Columbia. On the left were Secretary Moody, Mayor Schmitz, Senator Perkins, Assistant Secretary Barnes, General Macarthur and President Wheeler of the Universi- ty of California.
 One of the features of the decorations was an immense garland made entirely of California fruits. and swung on the south wall of the room. Stretching from one end of the hall to the other was string of electric lights spelling Land of Sunshine, Fruit and Flowers Well comes President Roosevelt"

SupciiHtSiiuelI MuFFay says Inere IS No Strike, But Coal is Short.
 The strike begun on Monday at the factory of the Seamless Rubber com- ,pany by twenty-five men and five girls was supplemented yesterday by about 1S0 other employees quitting work in sympathy
 James A. Murray, general superinten- dent, was spoken to yesterday noon in reference to the strike MT. Murray said that the stike was not caused over the discharge of the foremen, but the employees were laid off because the factory was short of coal, and that as no coal can be secured on account of the teamsters' strike more employees had to be laid off, and more might fol- low.

JAPAN AND CHINA BOATS.
The Clumsy but Seaworthy Sampan
 and How it is Built.

Everybody has read stories of the China seas, and therefore everybody has read about the queer vessels called sampans; because no story of those waters would be complete without a reference to them.
 The general idea about the sampan is that it is poor craft to venture far to sea in. and that the Japanese and Chinese sailors must be extremely plucky to take the long cruises that they do. But as a matter of fact the sampan is an excellent sea boat and can live in almost any kind of weather.
