A woman in Malmo would not send
her boy to school because his teacher
inculcated a "perverse Christianity anG

asked for an explanation, said that he
had told the children that there is a
natural explanation to some of the
phenomena mentioned in the Bible, or,
in other words, that there exist explain
atoms which differ from that of the
Bible and the orthodox people. The
superintendent gave orders to have the
boy transferred to another school with

Wants Him Liberated

G. r. Phinney charged with passing
q fictitious check, was examined yes
terday before Police Judge Rose and
was bound over for his appearance in
the superior court.
A pathetic side Of the hearing was
the presence of his child wife, soon
to be a mother, who is left totally des-
tltute. She pleaded tearfully for her
husbands release.
II. Gadreau, a butcher on Wesley
avenue, testified that Phinney. who
went under the name Of Charles Cor
don, asked him to cash a check drawn
by G. NJ. Nelson & Son for S14.55. The
check was found TO be worthless when
day.
II is stated that Phinney has made
a confession and is prepared to plead
guilty when arraigned in the superior
court.
Phlnney is the man who made a
sensational run down Fifth street
February g. when officer Tslamentes
attempted to arrest him, and who
only surrendered after several shots
were fired at him.
Deputy District Attorney McCor-
