SANTA MONICA.

Santa Monica could not nave asked
for finer day or more visitors than yes
terday's compliment. The trains were
literally packed. The 8 80 train brought
down thirteen crowded cars, and every
one of the succeeding ones were in a
like condition. Never has there been
such rush, save on one or two occa-
sions. The place from Hotel Arcadia to
many of the private dwellings was mass
of bunting artistically displayed and
patriotism seemed to be omnipresent
everywhere. The surf, which after all
is the chief attraction, was black with
bathers, who seemed 10th to come out,
and after an hour or two on the beach,
would plunge in again. The afternoon
and evening trains were as crowded as
the morning one. and at 8 p. m. when
the initial piece of the pyrotechnic dis
play was ushered skyward, there seemed
to be no perceptible decrease in the
multitude, the days celebration be-
ing closed by grand ball at the Area
dia.
On South beach Arend's orchestra en-
tertained the crowd, while Rex Foster,
the cowboy pianist, performed for those
on North beach. At the Crystal Plunge
there was an immense rush as else
where on the beach, where they splash
ed and plunged as if they never had had
bath before. Perhaps some of them
were down taking their annual.
Herr August Aamold will give one of
his sacred concerts at the Arcadia ball
room this evening. The gentleman is
we'll known wherever classically mu-
sical people exist and we will undoubt-
edly have a rare treat in the evening
concert. Herr Aamold will be assisted
by Arenu's orchestra and Miss Belden,
who will accompany him on the piano.
Some of the violin solos will be a con-
certo by Weinawski; nocturne d Major,
by Chopin, and theme and variations by
Sarasate.
The firemen gave their third annual
ball at the Arcadia Friday evening,
when the ballroom was crowded by a
large and merry throng of dancers.
