The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1895-01-27

thieves recently taken in San Francisco
and now in the County Jail in that city,
received the wound discovered in his groin
while attempting to hold up DR.. Ambroseuf
on the night before Christmas, on Sixth
street.
Wilson, Smith and Fraser, three of the
hoodlums were in Oakland at about the
time mentioned and had been seen loafing
about the neighborhood where the shoot
ing took place. They were tough-looking
trio, and the police had eyes on them.
Just after the shooting they were missed
from Oakland and it is supposed they
headed for San Francisco, where they were
shortly after captured. 1t has only re-
Gently been learned that Fraser was
wounded and had concealed the fact from
the authorities.
The impression prevails that this wound
was caused by the pistol of the plucky
doctor. On the night in question be was
on his way home in the dark, when sud-
denly voice commanded him to hold up
his hands. He looked up and saw muir
derous dirk glitter before his eyes, and
quick as flash he slipped out his pistol
and fired at the robber, who turned to run,
but fell, then stumbled to his feet and was
quickly lost in the darkness. The doctor
was always certain that he 'pinked" his
man and now the police believe so too.
Poor Tilted JageIs.
Diedrich Jagels has brought suit for
divorce from his wife, Emma J. Jagels, on
the ground of extreme cruelty.
In the complaint plaintiff alleges that
for the past eleven years he had been
shamefully treated by his wife, and says
that his former barkeeper, w. B. Christ, is
responsible for all his troubles.
Some time in August, 1898, Jagels dis
charged Christ, and his wife has been
heaping abuse upon him ever since. In
November she threw a beer-bottle at her
husband and invited him to take trip to
warmer climate. The next morning
Mrs. Jagels struck him with roast of
beef and attempted to stab her husband
with a fork.
The following month she attempted to
burn the house down and broke up the
furniture, all of which ruined her hus-
bands health and business and made it
necessary for him to go to the hospital for
treatment. In his complaint JageIs asks
for hecustody of the two children, boy
IA years of age and girl II. He also asks
for the property, which is valued at $1,000.
Thomas Clarity is acting as attorney for
Jagels.
