For this infraction of the rules of weli-conducted houses he was discharged. He lost no time, however, in applying for a clerkship with the firm who now mourns his departure. He represented to Gruenig & Co. that he could secure a lot of Keefe's custom- ers for them and on these representations was secured. His absence from work | :sed the suspiclons of the firm and an mination of the books revealed a | shortage of the amount named. His par- ents, who live at 2931 Twenty-fourth streét, have offered to make good the amount taken, but Gruenig & Co. would not accept the proffer. Captain Gillin of the Mission_district was informed of the affair_and Detectives Graham and Fitz- crald are now looking for the missing Grace.

Should any con- tagious or infectlous disease gain a foot- hold in the camps at the Presidio the result would be most serious. Soldiel in camp are not in a posi epidemics so well as those in barracks. and the department has decided to meet the matter before it is , in order to be ready should the necessity come. The new camp will be established at Quarry Point, on the east side of Angel The location is but a mile and a f from the present post and across the ridge. It is nearly the same distance from the quarantine station. The'site is where the stables and temporary buildings were erected for the engineers while the quar: was being worked, and is close to the beach. 1500 men. It is the intention to quarter there all troops coming in on infected transports, should any arrive, taking any case of disease to the quarantine station to be cared for there. No cases will be allowed to remain in the camp. It is in- tended only to provide a suitable place to detain troops during the “observation” perfod demanded by the quarantine laws and dictated by experience. In most cases this is seven days. The men in camp will be in command of their own officers, but the sanitary reg ulations will be supervised by the quar- antine officers over the hill. The need of such a camp of detention has been admit- ted by the officers in charge, but it was not until within the week that the a thorities at Washington would authorize Island. the work.

They have left behind a corporal and four men, who are still on one of the winter Etations, the snow belng so- deep they could not get at the little post to take the men out. There is a surprise awaiting them when the snow melts. The trip of the two troops out here was not uneventful. They intended to come by way of Spokane, but a washout com- pelled them to journey by way of Ogden, and they lost @ good deal of {ime n that Way. While speeding westward ti.e sparks from the engine set fire to one of the | cars. and the train was halted while the troopers turned firemen and put out the blaze. During the morning two companies of the Twenty-fifth Regiment and several detachments of colored recruits were sent from the Presidio onto the Pennsylvania, thera to awalt her departure.
