When Jasper Fisher. twenty three years
of age. residing at 33 f street. went home
yesterday afternoon he was surprised to
find that he was without a night key.
Jasper had no thought of waiting until
the return of his wife, who was out, but
just how he was going to effect an en-
trance troubled him. All the lower win
dows were locked. but some of those on
the second floor had been left open for
ventilation purposes.
Fisher thought he would have no ,rou-
Bile climbing to the second floor and en-
tering. thinking he could get in the house
much earlier than if he awaited the re-
turn of his wife. but when he was almost
within reaching distance Of the window
his foot slipped and the old story of
haste makes waste was repeated
Fisher fell to the pavement and sustained
fracture of his right leg. 1t then be-
came necessary to await the coming of
his wife at the Casualty Hospital. where
he will probably remain several weeks
