Colonel Charles Coolldge, commander of the Presidio casual detachment, has ap- plied to the War Department for an ap- propriation of $5000 to defray the expenses of building a canteen and amusement hall for the infantry and casuals at this post. His recommendation is approved by Gen- eral Hughes and under ordinary condi- tions should pass by the heads of the mili- tary bureau, although it may be blue- penciled to some degree. The need of the proposed innovation has been felt for some time and if the neces- sary funds are forthcoming the troops at the Presidio will be benefited greatly. If the soldiers are afforded sufficient oppor- tunity to enjoy themselves on the reser- vation it is expected that they will be less frequent visitors to the Coast and other disreputable localities. It is planned that the new building shall include bowling alleys, a billiard and posl room, smoking-room, reading-room and a restaurant where temperance drinks only and light refreshments may be served. Several months will undoubtedly elapss before the hall can be erected. ———— Opening of New Railroad. ’ The Sierra Rallway Company of Cali- fornia will have its line extended to An- gels Camp and be ready for complete passenger and freight service on and af- ter September 15.
