DISORDER ON KING STREET.-About
one O'Clock this morning cries of "po-
lice" were heard on King street, be-
tween Royal and Fairfax, and officers
Price and Ferguson responded. They
found white man and a colored man
and colored woman engaged in an
angry alteration. 1t seemed that the
colored people had been at work in a
Chinese laundry and when they were
about to quit for the night the white
man as he passed along the street made
an Insulting remark to the colored wo-
man. She retorted by using au equal
ly insulting epithet to him, when the
colored man let go the vilest 'cuss word"
he could summon at the white man.
The woman then became frightened
and alarmed the neighborhood by call
ing for the police. The trio was arrested
and let out for their appearance at half
past eight o'clock this morning, but the
white man did not show up until
quarter of an hour later, and the case
was postponed until 7 o'clock tonight.

The T0RRID WEATHER of yesterday
and last night was generally regarded
as the severest of the season. The
960 in the afternoon, and all who could
remained under shelter from the glar-
ing sun, the rays from which were dan
gerous. About six o'clock in the even
ing q slatecolored cloud appeared in
the northwest and it was hailed with
delight by sweltering humanity as a
coming relief from the effects OF the
oppressive weather, but it proved a
mirage, as ii was soon dissipated, and
after dark the stars shone as brightly
as ever The temperature at this time
had become almost unbearable, and
people sought-what they failed to
lind-cool places. Many deserted their
houses and occupied pavements and
porches until late hour, dreading to
make attempts to sleep, while those
who had invoked slumber earlier awoke
with beads of perspiration exuding
from every pore. Lonesome vigils were
kept at windows by numbers whom the
heat would not allow to sleep and they
fought mosquitoes until long after mid
night. The morning broke with every
indication that to-day's heat would eN-
coed that of yesterday, and the weather
bureau so prophesied. AS the sun be-
gan to climb the heavens his rays be-
came intense and man and beast have
suffered much from the hot wave. AT
3 o'clock the mercury in the thermome-
ter indicated 81.
