EDITOR SHOOTS
 BROTHER -IN-LAW
Called to Preachers Home to Take Drunken Man Away and Shoots in Self Defense Wounds May
 Prove Fatal.

Danville, Aug. 7- T. l.. Pound , editor and publisher of the Dan vile Democrat, shot and possibly fatally wounded his brother-in- law, Lee McCarrel. McCarrel was shot with 4l-caliber derrin- ger revolver just below the heart. He is resting well today and the physicians believe that there is a chance for his recovery.
 Pound claims that be shot Mc- Carrel in self defense. He states that during the night Rev. M. F.. Johnson came to his home, awoke hm and asked that be go to the parsonage and get Mccarrel, brother of Mrs. Pound. who had been paying attentions to Mrs. lcey Foster, an employe in the office of Mir. Pound, who roomed at ths parsonage. s'The pastor stated that Mrs. Foster wanted me to cone and see If I could get McCarrel to go away, as he was there in her room in drunken sleep, "says Mir. Pound. Il went back with the minister and found Mrs. Foster almost in mysteries. McCarrel was on the floor asleep.
 ''I took some water and bathed his head and eyes and awakened him and then tried to persuade him to go with me. He ordered me out of the room. 1 refused to go and he started at me. The woman ran between us. The minister interrupted and told Nc Carreil he should leave the house. As McCarrell got to the gate, however, he closed 1t and cursed me, saying that could not come out. As he went out the gate l saw him reach his hand to his hip pocket and take something out. thought It was either pistol or a knife. He started toward me. I could not persuade him to stop and finally, after having retreated as far as possi- bie, 1 shot him.
 T immediately gave myself up to the officers, after having in- formed my wife, the boys mother
 nd others of the trouble and b ving called doctor. 1 fur nished bond. The open knife was still in the grasp of McCar- rell when the minister went to him after he had been shot,"
 Pound explained the fact that he had pistol by saying that he had visited Ola that day, and, as he frequently did on such trips, carried small revolver and that when be was hastily summoned at late hour of the night he put on the same trousers that he had worn to Ola, aud from which the pistol had not been removed.

5000 TRADES IN GERMANY.

neutrality-suspicious. ssinstenten.


The Imperial statistical bureau in
Berlin has just published the result
of Il census taken on June l: last Of
all the professions. trades and occupa-
lions which were pursued in the empire
on thai da*. rho complete list includes
IL, OlG items. 1t is regarded as a re-
nla.kable growth of specialization.
Some of the callings have Tens OF
thousands of followers. In many cases
there are only n few. In some cases
only one person in the whole realm is
earning his livelihood In some fashion
which calls for separate classification.
The list illustrates the German ove
Of accuracy and also the capacity of
the language OF titles. One man. for
instance, is set down az Torstshutzi-
dienstanwarter, which means candi-
date for the fores. protectic, .ervice.
A considerable number come under
the head OF Observation-Disclosures
kulator. Or district public appraiser.
There are also several who fall under
the title of observation-disclosures
senkontrolen. or bookkeepers of the
fun for the payment of the public
debt. The climax of title. however. is
reached in the somewhat numerous and
somewhat humble group who are de-
ionsasSistenten.
These are the assistant inspectors in
the railway telegraph service.
One OF the old occupations is that of
court h%aylnaker. Blunistinnen or
flower girls are common enough. but
there are oniy three specialists known
as Observation-Disclosures. forget-mc-
not makers.
One man makes his living by renting
out compressed air; the one who sup
plies towels on hire would not excite
remark in New York. but he is regarded
as very peculiar in Berlin. So is the
man who has lottery wheels for rent.
Soothsayers and quack doctors are
frankly c~atalogued as such, and so are
strollers. v~agabonds and tramps. The
climax is reached in the case of a sim
gle man who is put down as a profess
sional smuggler.
