HOMES|CK FOR
PHILIPPINES
TAFT BIDS SOLDIERS FAREWELL
Points Out That to Go to the Presi-
dency by Way of Philippines is
Long Journey.

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 5.-After
spending the entire forenoon in the
cities of Oakland and Berkeley, Presi-
dent Taft was welcomed to San
Francisco this afternoon by throng
that lined the walks. in some places
10 deep, along line of march ex-
tending over three miles on the prin-
cipal streets. The school children of
this city, and of Oakland and Berke-
ley, gave their joyous cheers for the
president, as in most other cities Taft
has visited and was one feature of
the reception. Visiting three cities
and spending three-quarters of an
hour on San Francisco bay, the presi-
dent had busy day. AS he was
crossing from Oakland to San Fran
cisco the army transport Thomas was
setting sail for the Philippines and,
by the presidents request, the reve-
nue. cutter Golden Gate, on which he
was a passenger, was drawn up along
side of the big vessel, whose sides
were lined with soldiers and officers.
Made Him HOmesick.
On the bridge of the transport the
Philippine constabulary band, which
played at the presidents Inauguration
in Washington, was with him in Seat
tie and in the Greek theater at
Berkeley when he made an address
in that classic amphitheater, was
drawn up and was playing Hail to
the Chief" and the president shouted
across the water to the khaki-clad
soldiers: Goodbye, boys, L wish you
a pleasant voyage" Answering
cheers came back to the president.
The propeller of the transport began
to churn the water into a foam, a
ripping wave spread from her bow as
the vessel, gay with flags, gained
Roadway and the president looked
wistfully toward the Golden Gate.
Does it make you homesick., Mr.:
President" asked Captain Butt, his
aide.
Indeed it does" replied Taft, land
/ would give anything if l were going
with Them
Long Ways to White House.
The president never loses an OPP
portunity while on the coast to speak
a good word for the Philippines. and
he is always sure of responsive ap-
probation. Referring to one of his
own experiences at Manila in one of
his addresses today he said
"You never can tell what the future
is going to bring about. 1t seemed q
long way around to the White House
to go out 10000 miles into the
tropics, but that is where it landed
me-"
The president upon his arrival in
San Francisco was taken for a tree
mile carriage ride through Market,
Montgomery and Kearney streets and
Van Ness and Golden Gate avenues.
He reviewed on Van Ness avenue
nearly all the public and parochial
school children of the city. Next the
president laid the cornerstone for the
new Y. M. G. A. building and eX-
pressed again the interest he always
feels in Y. NJ. G. A. work. Later in
the day the president was a guest of
honor at a reception at the Union
League club. Tonight he was tend
cred banquet at the Hotel Fair
mount by more than geo residents of
San Francisco and later was enter
tanned by the Press club. The presi-
dent retired at midnight at the st.
Francis hotel and will leave tomor-
row morning for the Yosemite valley.

INCREASED VALUATION.
Selah Land Bought for $3.50 Sells fol-
$19,5OO.

Four years ago Arthur Vail bought
a tract of land in the Selah for $3.50
and one day last week sold it for
$19,500. That is going some and
shows the enhanced value of property
in that section during a comparative
ly short period of time. Mr.. Vail is
now interested in Oregon and is trans
ferring all of his property interests
to that state.

Perhaps the weirdest and most i'm.
pressive Of the many unwonted mem
ories that the traveller carries away
with him from travel in the east is
the recollection OF the camel caravans

distant boom Of Il heavy bell Mourn.

But, nearer and louder as the sound
becomes, not another sound and not u

darkness, like the apparition Of Il
phantom ship, the form Of the captain
of the caravan. His spongy tread
