Mountain Lake Park.
The Directors of the Mountain Lake
Park Association feel themselves JUS
tilted in speaking most hopefully of
the future of the enterprise. The past
season was notably unfavorable for
mountain resorts. Despite this fact,
however, this new resort, opened for
the first time to the public, has won
a popularity unprecedented in the
history of such enterprises.
With the end of the season con-
tracts are being made for buildings
which are to he erected before the
next season, and steps are also being
taken looking to the completion of
all the front roads and drives and
several of the cross avenues. The
Association has sold the Mountain
Lake Park Hotel to Mr.. II. II. Van
Meter, of Philadelphia, who expects
to enlarge in the near future. The
contract for the building of the dam
to form the lake has been awarded to
Mr.. A. l.. Burley, Of BenwOod, w.
Va, and he now has large number
of men engaged on the work. The
dam will he SIG feet long, 10t feet
high, 20 feet wide on top, to be used
as a carriage drive, and the lake will
cover "A acres, AT a recent meeting
of the Association series of reSolu-
tions were passed urging the man
ayers to try to prevent Sunday eX-
cursions to the grounds, and to have
prominent ministers to visit preach
ing appointments and Sunday Schools
near the Park on Sundays, so as to
aid in building up the work in the
regular channels, rather than to have
these services interfered with during
the season.
Following are lists of lot holders
who have already built cottages, and
who will erect cottages before next
season:
