the St. Johns river bridge toll money be
sept in a separate fund, kept in a savings
bank where it would draw interest and
only used TO pay expenses of maintenance
of the ST. Johns and Dunn'S creek bridg.
eS, was passed.
The contract for St. Johns bridge ten
der was let to w. T. Knowles at $50 per
month. There were several lower bids
and several higher, but as Mr.. Knowles
had record of efficient and faithful SER
vice and the board didn't think the work
could be well done at a lower price, it
renewed the contract with Mr.. Knowles.
ChaS. Crownhart was given charge of
the Dunn'S creek bridge at $40 per
month. His was the lowest bid.
The rate of tolls on the St. Johns
bridge was reduced in the case of one

Reynold M. Burt was quite severely
and painfully bruised last Saturday even
ing by being run into by an auto on the
Palatka end of the ST. Johns river
bridge. Mr.. Burt was driving over the
bridge and the auto, driven by young
Kane hit his buggy in the rear throwing
Mr. Burt into the air and landing him
on the bridge guard rail- He had to be
assisted TO the physicians office and
patched up, but is again out. The bug

too many of the auto drivers are careless

To Make improvements.

The Putnam National Bank has decid-
ed TO give some attention TO style as well
as security.
Contracts have just been closed which
call for an entire remodeling OF the ex-
terror front and the interior of the bank.
sThe front will have entrances on both
sides of big center plate glass window.
The interior will be completely re-
modelled, ssand the finish will be Italian
marble, bronze and walnut, with tile
floor. There will be big new vault of
the Diebold pattern and with depart
ment for special safety deposit boxes for
rental TO customers.
In the bank proper will be room for
ladies, with chairs and desks and spec
ial teller'S window.
The directors room in the rear will be
smaller than at present, but whatit lacks
in size il will more than make up in ele-
gance.

interiors, and when the work is com.
plctcd in June, the Putnam National OF
Palatka will be one of the most conven-

Last Years Killing Frost.

An East Palatka subscriber has asked
the News TO settle a date over which
there is some dispute in his section, i. e.
the date of the last killing frost which
nipped the potatoes and put the bean
family out of business" in the spring OF
1910.
The News has looked over its files
and has gone TO some trouble to secure
reliable information as to the disputed
date, but has been unable TO secure it.
No one here has made it a business to
keep a record of these disasters, only a
few of which are general in character.
Some frostS injure only in certain parts
of the same field, like that of last
month. But our enquirer wants TO
know of the last killing general frost in
the spring of 1910. Can any one give

Heat AFFECTS The
WOOD BLOCK PAVING

Jackson, Miss, June 9.-The in
tensely hot weather of the last week
or ten days has had the effect Of
bringing from the wood block pave
ment recently laid in this city, copi-
GUS quantities of tar and creosote, so
much so that on some of the streets
the city has had sand sprinkled over
the surface of the pavement to absorb
it; but day or so since one of. the
express horses attached to a delivery
wagon here slipped, fell, and rolled
over on the sticky mass. The animal
was taken to the livery stable and a
vain effort was made to rid the beast
of the unwelcome coat. Finally as a
last resort gasoline was thought of,
and it took two negroes and FIVE gal
Ions of gasoline to clean the coat of
the horse.
