Cottages Being Prepared for the Sum-
mer Residents-Sanford's New Hotel
Electric Cars Soon Begin Making
Hour Trips-Some Cottagers Already
at the Popular Resort.
The recent warm weather has caused
the owners of cottages at the various
shore resorts in this vicinity to begin
to think of getting in readiness their
cottages for the summer sojourn. At
Woodmont one of the pleasantest
hooks on the sound, there are evidences
of unusual activity this spring in pre-
pairing for the summer visitors, and the
indications are that the season will
open considerably earlier than 1t did a
year ago. Many Of the cottages are
receiving touches of paint, and are be-
ing otherwise put into shape for the

man. has already removed with his
family to his handsome cottage at
Woodmont, and will remain there dur

ton of the schools. He will go down
for the summer soon.
Mr.. Sanford, who conducted the Mer-
win Point house last season, has erect
ed a new hotel of modest proportions
about midway between his old place
and the Pembroke. The new hotel is
about 300 feet from the shore, and is be-

son.
The Pembroke will be conducted this
season by the proprietors of the West
moreland hotel in this city, who expect
to make many improvements.
Now that the new chemical engine is
assured, the inhabitants of Woodmont
feel more secure against fire than they
have in previous years. and other per-
mansnt improvements of like charac-

surrounding neighborhood."

TO PREVENT A RESCUE.
Perry VIII De Guarded to the GAL
lows by Soldiers.

Atlanta, Ga. September 7.-Extraord-
mary precautions are being taken by Gov
ernor Atkinson TO prevent the success OF
an alleged scheme to rescue Horace S.
Perry, the murderer OF Belly Lanier. who
is to be hanged at Decatur Wednesday
morning. Perry has many friends In North
Georgia, where he served for many years
as United States marshal, and all these
people believe that the unwritten law OF
the country justified the killing OF Lanier.
Word reached the governor that plot was
on foot to take Perry from his guards on
Wednesday as he was being driven from
Atlanta to the Jail at Decatur, where he is
to be executed. The distance is eight miles,
and more than one mile lies through a
dense forest. The governor sent for Colp-
mel Chandler of the Fifth regiment. who by
strange coincidence is the Judge who pre-
sided at Perry's trial, and after long con-
ference it was decided to send the regiment
along with Perry on his long march to the
gallows. Major Kempton will be in COM
mand and the troops will carry plenty Of
cartridges. Perry is keeping up his nerve
very well. He says he is glad he killed
Lanier. and would do II again under the
same circumstances.
