SAFETY GATES NEEDED.

The need of Safety Gates at
the Anderson avenue crossing of
the Southern railway was never
mere urgent than now. There
are almost daily narrow escapes
from death at that point, and it
would seem the part of wisdom
on4the part of the company to
put the gates there at once.
Mayor Schenck has long been
trying to get the railroad compa-
ny to make this needed improve
ment, and it is gratifying to learn
that Supt. Simpson, in a letter to
His Honor, says he will be in
this city within a few days and
would then take the matter up
with the mayor.

Work Commenced Monday on What
Will be the Biggest Enterprise
Ever Launched in Hender-
sonville. Boating, Fishing,
Street Car Line, Big Summer
Hotel and Boulevard System.
After all, Hendersonville is tt

have a lake!
Work begun on the big enter
prise last Monday and a large
force of men are now busy on
the scene of what will, next year
this time, be just about the big
gest improvement ever made in
this city.
The lake will be situated a lit
tie over one mile from town, on
the Viii llow Road and
Shepherds Mill Creek will be the
stream to furnish the water.
The lake will be three-quarters
of a mile long, one-half of a mile
wide and will be in the form of
Maltese cross.
There will be 35 foot boule-
ward entirely around the lake
There will be boating and fish
ing. Naptha launches and row.
boats will be there, music stand
for band concerts, a great hotel
is under consideration, the sur
rounding country will be laid off
in beautiful drives and walks,
with the great old trees as guard
ians over the merry throng of
people, with bushes and plants
set out with all the skill a noted
landscape engineer is capable Of.
Picnic grounds will be provided
and every pleasure for those who
want to spend a pleasant day
The dam will be % feet high,
of cement and earth, will be 537
feet long across the top, and will
be finished by September,
The shore line will be 2 3-4
miles. There will be a bank
about three feet high, which will
be covered with honeysuckle and
other vines. The greatest depth
of water will be 80 feet.
The lake will be called Lake
Osceola, after the Indian Chief
and the company promoting it is
called the Osceola Lake Company.

The surrounding property will
be laid off and divided into build
ing lots. The company owns
IA acres of land. There have
already been many inquiries from
prospective purchasers, although
the deal was closed only last FRI
bay. 1t is extremely likely car
line will run to the lake, power
being furnished at the dam.
Parties are now figuring on a
big summer hotel there.
The place will have every con-
Venience. Electric lights, tele-
phone line, sewerage, and spring
water pumped to every residence.
1t will be completed by next
summer, and will undoubtedly be
