A BADLY CUT FOOT.

A Barlow knife with the blade half open
was placed by design, or accidentally
dropped in crack of the sidewalk on
Washington avenue just above Twentieth
street, early yesterday morning. The
handle of the knife was tightly wcdged in
the crack, with the blade, about four inches
in length, Standing upwards. A barefoot
negro man, leaving Mr.. Metcalf's family
grocery, early in the morning, stepped on
the blade of the knife, and fairly buried il
in his foot. ltpcnetrated the flesh to the
depth of two and half inches, inAictng
very painful and serious wound.
a number of bare-feet boys arc in the
habit of playing in that vicinity, and one
of them may have dropped the knife dur.
ing the preceding night; but there Is rea.
son for believing that it was placed there
by design. Only the most flendish nature
could think Of such an Internal trap, The
negro will probably be disabled for week
or two
