THE WORK WILL BE RESUMED NEW CAPE MAY TO 6ET BUSY Dredging Vili Recommence for the Completion of Barbor and Bnilding to Begin Prominent officers and members" of the Oape May Real Estate Company have been perfecting plans during the summer for the resumption of work on the New Oape May land and for the completion of the harbor by the necessary dredging for its enlargement to the area required. Hon. William Flinn, of Pittsburg, a prominent officer and heavy stockholder in the Company, is having plans made and will proceed at once with the erection of five fine cottages. Another prominent dircetor will erect five others at an early date and it is believed that an era of building is ! about to begin there which will soon i make it a residence place during the j 1 summer, if not all the year, for a large number ol people. This encouraging news is entirely authentic and may be j relied upon. The stone work at the harbor entrance is to be completed in August, < 1910, and the crib work is already finished. The entrance will begin to take t form rapidly now and some results of i this great work will soon become manifest. The disturbance of the currents i is already causing sand deposits on the west side and the jetty when com- c pleted will undoubtedly causs the beach to make out many feet. There ( is to be a government dock erected for 1 the use of the naval and revenue ser- i vice. Lighthouse service and raDge J lights will be provided aa soon as nec- 1 essars by the proper government de- j t partment. i t DEATH OF HON. JESSE D. LUDLAM : Hon. Jesse D. Ludlam, of South Dennis, aged 69 years, died at hia residence on Friday last after a short illness. The funeral will occur Wednesday. August 4th. at 2:30 p. m.
