Santa Monica, Redondo and Long
Beach Notes.

The four hundred and the four thou
sand were at Santa Monica yesterday.
1t was the opening of the season and the
summer girls were on deck, attired in
deliciously cool-looking gowns. The
dude also made his appearance, clad in
immaculate gray and the black sash and
jaunty straw hat.
The beach looked resplendent with
gay mortals anxious to get as much out
of the first outing of the season as could
be squeezed in few hours. The pretty
and dashing young Angelefio miss had
mot forgotten how to hide little firta-
tion behind dainty parasol. The old
folks watched the antics of the young
couples with apparent delight, and
every one appeared to be happy.
The first series of open-air concerts be-
gan yesterday and will be continued
during theisummer by Douglas celebrat-
ed military band consisting of eighteen
performers. The concerts began at 10 80
In the morning and 2:30 in the after
noon. The band occupied the new band
stand. The programme for the entire
day was a most excellent one, especially
arranged to test the proficiency of the
band and the acoustic qualities of the
new stand. Perhaps there was not a
selection in the entire programme which
brought out all the merits of the per-
formers and stand with an equal degree
to the Grand march from Wagner's Tan
hauser, and it is not giving them undue
praise to state that the expectations of
the large and critical audience were more
than realized.
The cafion held its own ell day,
large crowd driving over and plcnicking
beneath the trees.
The Arcadia opened up very auspici-
ously, and Chief Clerk Scott smiled as
the register list increased until it occu-
pied two full pages. Messrs. Cowley
and Baker were on deck, and looked su-
premely happy as the guests piled into
the Arcadia.
