All registration records were broken and all registration expectations were exceedsd by the registration for the municipal primary which closed last night at 12 o'clock and at which in two days $50 voters registered. The registration Is regarded as most re- narkabls.
 The last man to register last night was Engineer W. J. Reynolds of the Louisville and Nashville. As he crossed the trestie on his engine com ing in last night Engineer Reynolds looked as his watch. and found that 1t was i1:s5 o'clock. Ie pulled into the depot and without removing his everalls rushed to the Court House where he got his certificate with sev- eral minutes to spare.
 The registration was even larger than the candidates. had expected and each side had many voters to be registered. The candidates and their supporters were most zeaious in bring ing to the court house the unrogister- Ad voter. Tn the court house and in the yards the prospective voter had to run the gauntlet of the ubiquitous candidate and the ever presnt cam paign worker Throughout the day. light hours he had to await his turn ct the window, so great was the rush for registration certificates,
 For voter after voter was coming to claim his chance. The candidates had carriages and the lame and the halt were hauled to ths court house. Some of the candidates even wanted permission to send one of the regis trars out in the suburb to register a man sick in bed. The Attorney Gem oral was asked over the phone if this would be legal and his negative answer alone prevented the man from being registered.

ALARMED BY SHOT.
BIC CROWD FOUND TT WAS ACCT-
 DENTALLY DISCHARGED.
fn E6eeffng Arrest pf Capt. George N. Todd . Psfrozmau Dropped His Revolver and Great Crswa
 Gathered.

The sound of pistol shot at s:es o'clock last night on Court street created excitement in the down town district. It was soon learned, however, by the big crowd that rushed to the scene, that the revolver of Officer Hill. of the police force. had been acci- dentally discharged in front of Todd's Gun Store. and the temporary excite nnent abated as suddenly as 1t had arisen.
 The incident. happening as it did. in the time immediately preceding election was the cause of great alarm. Immediately following the shot came huge crowd pouring across the square and collecting in front of Todd's Gun Store. With curiosity they sought to ascertain who was killed and how many were wounded. and various other details that would have been narrowing if true. It did not take the crowd a long time to disperse after learning the facts.
 The accident happened this way. Off, hcer Watts entered Todd's Gun Store shortly after 9 o'clock last night to serve a warrant charging Captain Todd with assault and battery. Cap tain Todd upon presentation of the warrant refused compliance, and Is said to have struck the officer. The officer then blew his whistle for as- sistance.
 Meanwhile nearby officers were rum ming to his assistance, and one of them in so doing dropped his pistol upon the grating. Then followed the discharge. the excitement, and the crowd. In a few minutes, however, things had quieted down.
 Captain Tcdd was taken to head quarters by officers Watts and Canty without further trouble. The occur renee had been greatly niagnified through the spirit of high tension in- cident to election times, and by the unfortunate discharge of revolver. No harm was done.

 Steamer La T0uraine.
 New York. March 2i.--Swinging by Sandy Hook late today with her pro- pellers churning . foamy wake that laid the following course for her beat en rival. the steamship St. Louis. of the American Line, defeated the French liner La Touraine in one of the most iexciting ocean races in trans-Atiantic steamship travel.
 The La Touraine left Havre, France, about o'clock last Saturday morning and the St. Louis departed from Cher bourg eight hours later on her voyage across the Atlantic.
 The American liner slowly crept up on the La Touraine and on Thursday afternoon the two ships raced along brow and brow. Late that night the St. Louis forged ahead.
 La Touraine hung tenaciously to the American's trail and through the smoke of the St. Louis was generally visible. the passengers on the French man did not again catch glimpse of the St. Louis until La Touraine passed Sandy Hook this afternoon, an hour and thirty-six minutes behind the American steamer.

 The budding fruit has passed through the dangers of February. is immune during the present month and will probably not suffer in April because of the fact that 1t WAS killed in April of last year.
