New York, June 27.-The stock mar
ket was governed by conflicting in
fluences today, early gains being re-

attributed mainly to relaxed money

accompanied by unfavorable reports
affecting rails and war issues.
Rails were negligible in the days

ports of an indefinite suspension of

PALATKA SCHOOLS
OPEN NEXT MONDAY
For Fall Term Two Weeks
Earlier Than Usual at
Request of Trustees.

1t was the opinion of the trustees
of the Palatka special tax school dis
tlict that the >high school should be-
gin the fall term two weeks earlier
than usual this fall, possibly to get
through the school work earlier in
the spring, so that the work of cree
ting the new and modern building
that they hope will house the immedi-
ate genel ations of children might be-
gin.
Anyway the Putnam high school
and grammar and intermediate and
primary departments will open next
Monday. AS it is a public holiday
Labor Day. there will likely only be
a calling together of the children for
organization and an adjournment to
the following day.
That there will be large attend
al1ce from the start is probable-an
attendance to tax the capacity Of the
school and enforce the idea of the ne
cessity Of d new and modern building.
The following teachers have been
engaged to instruct during the coming
year and will be present to greet the
pupils:
II. P Geiger, principal; DeIbert
Gilpatrick, assistant principaI; Miss
Clara Mcdonald, Miss Estelle Nc

MRS. MARY {. BOYD
DIED ON SATURDAY
She Was Palatka's Oldest
ReSident-End Not
Unexpected.

Mrs. NJ. f. Boyd died at the home
OF her daughter, Mrs. S. H. Bass. on
North Third street, last Saturday ev-
cmng after an illness of several
weeks.
The funeral was held on Sunday af-
telho00n from St. Marks Episcopal
church, and the interment was in the
family ot in West View cemetery.
me pan bearers were J. H. Haugh-
ton, w. l.. Cheeves, W. n. Coffee, r.
q. Neck, J. N. Blackwell and Dr.. A.
VI. Steeu.
Mrs. Boyd was without doubt the
eldest resident of Palatka. She was
corn at Nantucket, r. l., on Dec. 5th,
1880, and came to Florida in 1850,
settling in Palatka, where she has re-
sided continuously since. At that
time PaIatka was but small Indian
trading post ON the river, and Mrs.
Boyd saw the place in all stages of
its development.
Some weeks ago she contracted
wHU0pmg cough from one of her little
Q. anddaughters. This, with COM
p.icatioa Of troubles was the cause of
Ger death. About a week before the
end she suffered a partial stroke of
paralysis which affected her left side.
She was unconscious much of the time
during the last week of her life.
Her funeral was attended by many
Of the cid citizens of the city and
many Others, for she was known and
beloved by all classes. While Mrs.

which in Florida alone represented
many millions Of dollars. Mr. Rhodes
said that the farmer was the advance

advising him Of the amounts Of va

Last Sunday, to The

Rev. Dr.. S. r. Skinner of Alachua
was the guest of the First Baptist
church last Sunday and occupied the
pulpit both at the morning and cven-
ing service.
DR.. Skinner is said to be very
able preacher, but also cXcels as a
pastor and in his ability as a mixer
He is said to be q man who makes
friends and that his influence has al
ways resulted in bringing men and
women whom he meets into the
church.
Those who attended the church last
Sunday were delighted with the SER
vice and the preacher.
At the conclusion of the evening
service next Sunday night, there will
be q meeting Of the congregation
when the wisdom of calling" DR..
Skinner to the vacant pastorate will
be discussed. From words that leak
to The News now there will be little
more than a one-sided discussion, and
that favorable to the call.
DR.. Skinner has a wife and one
grown SON. Mrs. Skinner is quite a
leader in church mission work among
women, and the son is a fine tenor
singer and violinist.
Rev. r. L. Bonsteel will preach at

ing and evening, and the other SER

Already the chemists have contrib

United States in its fight. Most OF
these are being kept secret, but when
peace comes the world will marvel at
the chemists work.
Doctor Hillebrand is on his way to
his home in Washington, having come
west to attend the conference Of the
American Chemical Society at Kan
sas City last week. Four hundred
of the society's 5000 members attend

Chemists to Organize for War.
Doctor Hillebrand told of the organ
ization in the ranks of the chemists.
AT the instigation of the National De-
fense Council, the National Research
Council, which is a branch of the Ma
tional Academy of Science, sent out
questions to all American chemists
asking how much of their time they
could devote to Government work,
what special branch of chemistry they
were best fitted for and where they
could carry on their work.
Practically every chemist in the
United States signified his willingness
to give his time to the Government.
Some sort of corps will be organized,
Doctor Hi:lebrand thinks, in which
they will work systematically and will
be listed as being in the employ of
the United States.
