THE Season At LONG BEACH

LONG BEACH, Aug. 1o.--There is no
diminution OF the number of visitors at
this resort, but on the contrary steady
increase. People are leaving every day,
but the arrivals exceed the departures.
Those who have to go away do so reluct-
antly and IN most cases regretfully.
Everybody who spends a few days, or
even one day, in the enjoyment of these
superb natural advantages must feel as if
there is no need of looking further to
find the ideal seaside resort of the Pacific
coast.
The past week was a lively one and
the coming week bids fair to be equally
lively, if not more so. The Methodist
camp meeting. which closed last Sunday
night. will be followed by similar gath
ering of the Christian denomination, to
open at the tabernacle the 10Th. On the
18th inst. the Southern California W. G.
r. {. people will open series of public
NEE tngs, which, like the camp meeting.
will doubtless attract a great many nom
residents hither. Then there are the
summer schools. supplementary TO the
Chantauqua assembly, and various special
entertainments TO be given by home

so that nobody here need be at a loss for
opportunities to crafty desires for either
religious instruction, secular education or
something to merely amuse. These at
fractions, in connection with the surf. the
beach, the fishing wharf and the lyacht-
ing facilities ought to satisfy alomst any
body.
