The doctor was frequently bothered

ply frequently was that no such per.
son as DR.. Seroison was known at
the address. Five years of this pass

through bad telephone service. the
doctor investigated and discovered
That his number had been given to
iaundress and to still another person

Edward Frakes and Willard Sharp, in
Informatlons Filed Today.
Charged With Attempt
to Murder.
FRAKEs GIVES BOND
Edward Woods In the Hospital With
Twenty-seven Pieces Of His
Skull Gone as Assault
Result.

More serious charges were prefer
red today against Edward Frakes and
Willard Sharp, two young men of the
city who were charged with assaulting
Edward Woods Tuesday night at
Eighth and Johnson streets, when
Wood was rendered unconscious from
q blow delivered with piece of gas
pipe, to be taken to the hospital in
precarious condition, where doubts
are entertained for his recovery An
information that charges Frakes and
Sharp with assault in an attempt to
commit murder was filed IN the super
ior court this morning and their bond
was fixed at $1,000 each. Frakes'
mother succeeded in securing bonds
man for him and he was released
from jail.
After Woods was removed to the
hospital, the seriousness Of his con-
dition was soon discovered when
physicians made an examination OF
his injury. An injury Of the most
dangerous kind was inflicted in the
forehead with the gaspipe, the ply
sicians picking out twenty-seven
pieces of skull bone that had been
crushed. While the operation was in
progress Woods eyeballs were visible
through the cavity made in the fore
head.
Several reports are current con-
corning the melee which may cost
Woods his life, One OF them is to the
effect that an old feud existing among
certain employees of the canning fac
tory was resumed, and that Frakes
and Sharp at first claimed that a
mistake had been made in their ar
rest, that they were not the parties
wanted. Later they admitted having
the gaspipe. but said they picked it
UP after Woods had assaulted them
and thrown it at them. Another story
is that there was woman mixed up
In the affair. The officers think they
have the right parties in Frakes and
Sharp and think they have ample evil
dence to fasten the assault on the
two young men held. Evidence which
the officers are not giving out is said
to be OF an discriminating nature
against Frakes and Sharp.
