THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
General Scott is expected to arrive here
tomorrow to see about getting the
commonwealers, now encamped near
Rosslyn to leave the county. 1t is SAID
that the commonwealers have deter
mined to remain where they are unless
the Virginia authorities provide them
another camping place, but it is be-
lieved they will leave before force is re-
sorted to to move them. The food
supply is at very low ebb, and discon-
tent of the men with their surround
ings is visbly greater. 4 large number
of the men who tramped in from the
far west, and especially those from Col
orado, are using every exertion to get
their transportation paid back to that
State. but thus far their efforts have
not been successful. A number of the
men who were caught begging in Wash
ingtou on Saturday were sent to jail in
that CITY.

REFRESHING RAINs-It was appa-
rent early yesterday morning that this
vicinity was to experience continual
ton of the tropical heat of last week.
The mercury was soon climbing into
the nineties, and by noon in soma
places in this city it was standing at
the 100 mark. People sought shady
places and apart from the church goers
there were comparatively few persons
on the streets. There were many
empty benches in the churches and
some were closed at night Although
fans were swayed necessarily the heat
in the various places Of worship was
oppressive and perspiration stood out
in beads upon every one. About 2:l5
o clock Ia the afternoon q cloud APP
pcarcd in the northwestern heavens
;.nd 1t was hailed with no little delight
by swelteriug humanity, but ii soon
passed over. There was copous rain
north of Queen street, but south of that
ihoroughiare not drop, it is said, fell.
About an hour later, however, a denser
cloud doomed up, and at four o'clock
the wind began TO blow with almost
hurricane force. The streets were till
Ell with binding clouds of dust and in
some instances limbs were twisted from
trees. The much needed rain soon fol
lowed, ana there was decided fall in
the temperature. Another shower fol-
lowed about eight o'clock and still an
other shortly after eleven. The storm
is said to have been very severe IN the
country adjoining Alexandria, and hail
IS reported 10 have fallen III some
places. At the different resorts on the
river the elements caused considerable
apprehension among the excursionists.
The occupants of an open car on the
electric road which was caught in the
storm between this city and Mount
Vernon related thrilling experiences
upon their arrival here. During the
storm q large sailboat containing seven
men capsized near the U. S. magazine
wharf All of the men managed to
catch hold of the upturned boat, and TO
1t they. clung until the steamer Major
w. Allen picked them up. The crew
of the steamer had some difficulty III
rescuing the castaways. owing to the
binding rain At Colonial Beach the
wind blew with tornado force. The
stesmer George Leary, which had
brought large excursion party there,
was blown away from the wharf out
into the river, Il heavy hawser having
been snapped. On shore the scene was
thrilling cottages were unroofed, trees
uprooted and tents blown away, while
people were running to and fro panic
stricken. Most of those who had ar
rived yesterday made tracks fer the
wharf for the purpose of boarding the
steamer, but they were much distressed
when they saw the boat some distance
out in the river buffeted by the storm.
Capt. VIM. Luckett, by his GOODNESS.
soon dissipated the apprehension of
those who had gotten aboard the Leary
before she was blown from the wharf,
and as soon as possible had the steamer
under control and heading for the
landing. 1t was impossible, however,
to hold her there long enough at one
time for all who desired to get aboard,
but as many as could scrambled on each
time the boat touched the wharf. The
wind finally subsidized and the scare
gave place to mirth once more. No
one was injured by the storm.

lied the IMMENSE SACRI-

they waded right into the good
things and every one secured
a prize. At this SLAUGHTER

Some good things are gone,
but there are many still here.
Those who couldn't get to see
us last week missed some
good opportunities. But we
are still going to give them a
chance to get even. We have
made another STUPENDOUS
REDUCTION in the prices of
the goods left. This sounds
impossible, but it is true new
ertheless. We want every
thing cleared out from top to
bottom, and the way we are
going to do it is by giving to
each person three times as
much for his money as could
be gotten elsewhere for the
same sum. We have plenty
of choice fabrics yet on hand,
which, if the business had to be
wound up, would command
full price to-day from every
man, woman and child who
needs them. These very same
goods we reduce this week to
less than one-half Of their mar
ket value, Why, it would pay
you to lay in a stock for future
use.
It's like saving up so much money in bank ;
you will have to have the goods some time,
and you will have then TO pay 100 cents on
the dollar for them. Why not buy them now
and ;hus effect great saving? A PENNY
