up rather brisk for quite a while, but
was not heavy enough to amount to any
thing.

The heat yesterday drove people down
here who had not intended to stay over
Sunday, and as a consequence the great
hotel had every room engaged before the
arrival of the AS train, and those who
telephoned later were obliged to put up
with cot in one of the halls. Redondo
| is like the tabled land of the lotus-eaters,
| in that no one willingly leaves
! it and always returns again
and again as opportunity offers.
An enumeration of the guests
of last night would be largely an
enumeration of guests that have been
here on former Saturdays. There are
many new ones, too, and it is common
occurrence to overhear new guest who
has been introduced to one of the regu-
lars saying: "This is my first visit to
Redondo. / had intended going to -
this week, but met - in town and
he was so enthusiastic about Redondo
that l concluded to visit the place to see
for myself" Next week it is some one
else induced to visit the place on this
mans recommendation.
