resided for many years. DIR. Hail. who was
in his sevcnty-sixth year, came to this city
over sixty years ago, and was for many years
engaged in the practice of medicine in which
he was very successful. He was the son of
William G. Hall, esq, of Alexandria, Va, aud
was boru in that city in january, 1905. He
went to school in Georgetown. and finished
his education at Jefferson college, Pennsylva
MIA, from which he graduated in 1923. Four

THE CENSUS TAKERS.
Probable Population of the District-Thc
Enumeration Half Finished

Probable Population of the District-The
Enumeration Half Finished.
The work Of taking the census in tho Dis
trict is about half finished. Colonel Boyd,
the supervisor, estimates that the census will
show a population in the District of between
1000 and 10000, So far 10000 names have
been enumerated. Owing to the difficulty in
calculating the comparative population OF
different portions of the city, SO as to divide
the work evenly among the enumcrators
some of the enumerators have already finished
the tasks assigned them. In other cities
where there are wards and election precincts.
and the votes are annually registered, 1t is
not difficult to compute the population of
different parts of the cities. The census OF
1870 in the District was taken by wards, each
cnumerator having n ward to himself and
plenty of time to finish the ward. So no basis
was furnished for dividing the work among
the enumerators at the present time. Under
the regulations, Colonel Boyd has until the
18th inst. to complete the enumeration, and
until tho end OF the month to finish his re-
ports. In tho county the enumeratofs have
month to work. Each day the enumerators
make reports to Colonel Boyd of the number
of names taken, so that every night the super
visor knows exactly the number taken up
to date. Expert enumcratOrs say that
| it is quito impossible for one man
to take much more than three hundred
names uay, even where tnty meet with
no serious interruptions. In some localities
| tho lot Of the census taker Is not happy
one, as he has to overcome the ignorance and
stubborness of the inhabitants The enumera.

street. Tho onumorator came in when
he was busy and worried and lie de,
clined to deal with him at that time. Some
of the questions, and especially the one re-
garding tho nativity of the parents O
of the person being enumerated, generally re-
quire some consideration. 1t is this question
that canses most of the delay. The enumer
atOrs are bound to secresy, but when they g

RUN OYER AND KILLED.
Fatal Accident Mt tho baltimore n Potomac
Depot.

Depot.
Charles 8. Litchheld, q painter, residing al
No. 497 street southwest, was instantly
killed at the Baltimore e. Potomac depot a
little before o'clock yesterday morning by
being knocked down and run over by some
cars which wero being shifted about tho depot.
Litchfeld had prepared for journey 10 Alex
andria, having placed his paint pots in the
baggage car of his train, and while waiting
for the train to 90 walked down the depot
yard. While walking on track, apparently
watching an incoming train, he was knocked
down by the ca and two trucks passed over
him, mutiating him terribly and causing
death instantly There was an engine stand.
lug at the water.tauk, which obscured Mr..
Litchfeld's view of the cars, and also pro.
vented the brakeman on the car from seeing
him until he stepped out from behind the en- .
gino Mr.. LitchGed was then within few
feet Of tho cars aud could not be saved, though
the brakes were put on and tho brakeman
called out Justify.
AT the inquest held shortly afterward John
t. Robey the brakeman on the cars, testified
substantially to what is printed above.
Thomas Dean, William NJ. Ashley and James
A. X. Moore corroborated Robey's account of
the accident.
The jury returned a verdict that the death
was the result of an accident aud that no
blame can be attached to the employees of the
company. The jury also added suggestion
that the system of shifting cars aud making
up trains in depots, called shooting in" should
be remcdied by preventing cars being moved
ON the arrival of incoming or the departure OF
outgoing trains. The officers of Metropolis
lodge, /. o. o. f., of which deceased was u
member took charge of the remains. The
deceased was forty-two years of age and leaves
vile and child six years old.

evening. Great honors were shown tho de-
ceased at Norfolk The Portsmouth Enterprise
gives the following practical theory Of the
fatal accidents
"The theory Is that Lieutenant Zcillin's horse
ran away with him. We do not believe IL,
from tho fact the appliances aud perfect con

learn that before the lieutenant left Ocean
