CHRISTMAS AT THE REDoNDO.

Something About the Chiefs of Depart
ment at This Popular Hotel.
Great preparations have been made at
the Redondo hotel for celebrating
Christmas in the time-bonored way, by
providing plenty of good cheer for the
inner man. George W. Lynch, the
energetic business head OF that great
tourists resort, has been planning and
directing matters with his usual good
judgment and "push" and will have
something new to interest and please
his guests on this occasion. His efficient
assistant, D. O'Neil, will be on hand
with smile and bostonniere Che was
never seen with either absent) to do the
honors in the office. Charlie Brant will
look after the placement" of the
guests, and he will send every one OF
them away believing that they have had
not only the best rooms, but the best of
everything else in the house. W. J.
Walshe, the experienced and capable
steward, has prepared the splendid bill
of fare which we give below-a list of
tempting dishes which it makes one
hungry to read. The presiding genius
of the great kitchen is E. Magney, and
the banquets which mateiialize
and take form under the magic of this
great French cooks manipulations, are
not less wonderful or pleasing than
those which were proviped by those
other genii, veracious account of
whose performances may be found in
the Arabian Nights tales. The chef OF
the pastry department is H. Rott, an
artist with few equals in his branch of
the culinary art. In the dining room
D. H. Adams directs the movements of
a corps Of colored walters in way that
leaves nothing to be desired by the
guests, for no one has ever found a sub
stitute for the colored waiter which has
given satisfaction to those most inter-
ested the people who sit at thes
tables. In the music gallery of the din
ing room the famed Arend orchestra
will be heard in a fine concert during
the dinner hour and in the music hall
or parlors of the hotel each day. The
