The Mater Bite.

He was six years old and had never
gazed into the mystic lens of mi
croscope. Several slides containing
animalcula had been displayed to his
astonished vision. He was too amazed
to make any comment until he came
to one slide that seemed more wriggly
than any of the others. 1t was merely
a drop of water.
The little fellow gazed at it long
time, with all its nimble particles of
animal life, and finally exclaimed to
his mother:

PRESIDENTS SPECIAL
TRAVELS 5000 MILES
WITHOUT A MISHAP

Gerrit Fort. assistant to the vice
president, in charge of traffic of the
New York Central lines, arrived in the
city yesterday morning with President
Taft's special train. All of the trans
portation arrangements for the presi-
dents tour were made by the New York
Central lines, through Fort, who has
personally been in charge of the move
ment of the train since it left New
England.
When the train reached Oakland yes
terday morning it had covered 5.626
miles, and it has been absolutely on
time in reaching every point included
in the itinerary. The railroads have
felt the grave responsibility of taking
care of the president of the United
states, and have exercised every pos
sible precaution for the safety and COM
fort of the president.
Part of the train was a New York
Central baggage car. which is being
used as a dressing room by members
of the party, who have their evening
clothes, frock coats and other para
phernalia necessary to dress the part"
hung up in bags on clothes lines in
the baggage car. The interior of the

than during the reception of an hour

handsome Union League club at O'Far
ren and Powell streets. There the
president was at home among the re-
publicans OF the city and state There
he was presented with magnificent
token OF the clubs pleasure in having
him as its guest-if only for an hour
and there he made a brief speech, which
touched the sensitive nerve most di-
rectly connected with San Francisco's
heart:
TO see the youth OF your city on
the street today" he said. referring
10 the massed children on Golden Gate
avenue, made me wonder whether
these young children had known the
terrible trials, starvation and exposure
10 which SOe.eo6 10 100000 of the peo-
pie experienced. They went through
that awful week, yet they smile and
laugh-In fact, have seen no one who
seems depressed with even a thought
Of that terrible history"
ToUCRSFoNE OF SYMPATHY
That was the touchstone TO join the
president in full sympathy with the
people OF San Francisco.
The Union League club was fortunate
in that it had the president when he
was fresh from the wonderful impress
sion which must have been made upon
him by the tremendous ovation he re
cefved in passing through the streets
OF this city. He spoke from the heart
aptly and with 8 delicate intuition Of
San Francisco's pFoudest boast OF the
city's inevitable optimism.
The reception rendered the president

by his installation as an honorary men,
