PLEASURE SEEKERS.

Their Choice Seems to Be the RedondO
Hotel.
This 10 proving to be one OF the best
seasons for tourist travel that this Sec
ton has ever experienced; and it is very
fortunate, both for the visitor and the
agricultural and business man at home,
that the early and abundant rains have
prepared our lovely valleys to be seen at
their beet. With such attractions as
the country now affords, with the orange
trees bending beneath their loads OF
golden fruit, with every hillside covered
with q sheen OF living green, the state is
rapidly filling with people from lands
where all is ice and snow, and the con-
trsst they will fn6 here cannot be other
wise than very impressive. But these
visitors will need desirable place to
locate while here, and we desire to call
their attention to the advantages offered
by the great hotel at Redondo Beach.
This house is modern, is arranged 80 as
to give the maximum of sunshine and
air in every room, is provided with all
the latest and beat apparatus for secur-
ing the comfort and convenience of it's
guests, and is managed on the most lib
eral principles. giving it's patrons all the
advantages of a strictly frst-class estab-
liehment at a cost far below that usually
exacted at other houses OF its class. By
all means visit Redondo Beach, the prin-
cipal seaport for Los Angeles. before
returning east. Take the Redondo
Beach branch of the Santa Fe, or the
Redondo railway, and you will be landed
ct the Redondo hotel in 45 minutes from
Los Angeles.
