A board in the flooring has been broken for several days and Mr. Specter declares that he has constantly asked the owner of the house, W. L. Cherry, to make the necessary repairs, last evening while Vermont was romping on the porch, his foot went through the floor, throwing him to the flooring beneath. He suffered severe contusions about the legs and but for the prompt action of Dr. Hale of the Schleiker office, blood poison would have set in. The lad Is reported as progressing favorably although it will be several days before his leg is thoroughly healed.
