The Market.

Notwithstanding the threatening APP

more people being present than Tor sew

excellent display of vegetables and other
country produce. The past month mas

The Registration.

Last night at nine o'clock the regis
tration books we're closed in the four
wards and will not be opened again I'M
til next year, some time before the June
election. There was an increase in the
number of applicants yesterday, more
presenting themselves during the day
than on any previous day at this regis
tration, but the total results show only a
slight increase since last year in the
number of voters in this city, and from
the present outlook the vote polled here
next year will be an extremely small
one. The interest is not shown here in
elections now that was manifested some
wears ago. the indifference being es-
pecially marked among the younger
men. the absence of these being one of
the noticeable features ofthis registration,
The total registration during the five
DAYS is as follows:
First ward 10, 16 of these being new
and transfers, all white. Second ward
IL, 10 of these being new and transfer,
all white. Third ward 55, 81 being
new and 4 transfers, 81 white and ]
colored. Fourth ward 30, &c new and
4 transfers, 25 white and colOred. The
total registered vote Of Alexandria at
present is as follows;
First ward $50 white and IA colored.
Second ward 272 white and 10 col
ored. Third ward 1877 white and 20
colored. Fourth ward 412 white and
So colored.

Heavy Rainfalls.

Alexandria received two heavy rains
Yesterday evening and last night. Con-
ditions had been threatening all day and
the humidity Of the atmosphere had oc-
eaSioned much discontinue. Shortly after
four q clock in the afternoon the clouds
which had previously been gathering
emptied themselves, and for about
twenty minutes the streets were deluged.
Considerable thunder and lightning ac-
compapied the rain and some OF the
flashes were vivid and the thunder ap-
mailing. There was one especially
bright fash followed almost simultane-
ously by a crash of thunder The cleo
fric current invaded an upper room OF
the residence of Mr.. A. III. Thomson,
ON the north side of Prince street, be-
tween Fairfax and Lee, but no material
damage resulted, although several artl-
cles of furniture were disturbed, the
tacks holding the carpet tOthe floor hay-
ing been pulled out The smell Of sui
pbur was in evidence. The lightning
also struck chimney at Mr.. Il. Shu-
mans confectionery store, southeast cor
ner of King and Pitt streets. A brick
WIS knocked down and the current car
ried (probably by wires) to the ice cream
saloon in the rear, which was filled with
smoke and an odor of sulphur. The
same flash temporarily deranged a num-
her of telephones and sent fire out OF the
transmitters, accompanied by swapping
sounds resembling the ignition of parlor
matches. An arm of telephone pole
near Smoot & Co.'s lumber yard was
knocked off by the lightning. During
the prevalence of the storm balls OF hre
in some instances ran in Offices where
telephones and electric fans are 1sed.
Mr.. Charles Pierpoint, who is employed
in Mr.. r. l.. Myers's blacksmith shop,
had thrilling experience. A flash OF
lightning knocked hammer from his
hand and left a sensation in hisarm akin
10 that produced by the pricking OF
needles. lie received no injury, however.
Clouds began 10 gather again early in
the night. and from about SO'clock until
sfter 10 there were other heavy showers
and almostincessant display of lightning.
Some of the flashes we're brilliant and
the thunder resembled the discharge OF
heavy ordnance The electrical dis
play was at times beautiful, the heavens
being aglow, while some of the streaks
which shot across the sky resembled at
tenuated sky rockets. During the height
of the storm one exceedingly vivid flash
and accompanying thunder knocked
man down on Henry street, between
Prince and Duke. He regained his fee
Immediately and hurried off. The rainfall
was very heavy. Most of the streets were
flooded and the sewers we're taxed u
their utmost capacity in carrying OFT tn
water. The temperature is now mor'
pleasant than it had been at any othel
time during the week.

Legs Broken.

Mr.. Samuel Bellamy, of Charlottes-
vile, had his left leg broken while
helping to unload car of lumber
short distance east of Leesburg yes
terday. A piece of heavy timber
fell across his leg, breaking the limb
and twisting it completely around.
Bellamy was given surgical attention at
Leesburg and was then brought to this
city and placed aboard a train for Char
louisville. He reached here previous to
the heavy rain, and was being carried
on litter when the heaviest downpour
of last nights set in. Those engaged in
transporting the injured man were with
their charge, compelled to seek shelter
in a doorway on the south side OF
King street, near Pitt, where they
waited for about half an hour until the
rain abated.
Eugene Donaldson, white, FIVE years
of age, living at Falls Church, was play
ing in field adjoining his home yes
terday evening when horse stepped on
the lower part of his left leg, breaking
both bones. He was taken to the
Georgetown University Hospital, where
the bones were set.

Ninety.nine of every one hundred diseases that
children have are due tOdisorders of the stom.

thrive on it. 1t keeps their little stomachs
sweet and encourages their growth and devel-
ment. Mrs. Henry Carter, 705 Central street,
Nashville, Tenn, says: "My little boy is now
three years old, and has been suffering from
indigestion ever since he was born. have

A Move in the Right Direction

Mr.. Walter Roberts has taken the ini-
tiative toward retaining the roadway OF
the Strand, from King street south, and
today he had men engaged in filling the
road in front of his property. 1t is earn
estly hoped that others conducting bust
ness on the river front will follow Mr.
Roberts's example. After a high tide or
a heavy rain that portion of the city is
very unsightly, while the discontinue
experienced by pedestrians is great.
