At the Hotel Lafayette there were
quite number of private dinner par
ties during the week. The arrivals
were even greater in number than Man
ager Miller had anticipated, the warm
weather of the past few days forcing
the people to seek shelter on the wide
porches, or in the cool corridors or in
the hammocks under: the big trees
in the grove. That the season
of 1890 is to be successful one
at the Lafayette there is no doubt.
From now until the close Of the season
the DAM concerts will be given daily,
and they will no doubt prove an at
tractive feature. The weekly hops have
been well attended, and under the
direction of Prof. DE Garlno, of New
York, have become very popular, .es-
pecially with the young, folks. Among
