A Former Fargo Preacher Is
Up Against Charges Of
EnbezzIement
Failed to Turn Over Money
Sent Church by John
D. and Hill

Fargo, Aug. SIS Rev. C. W. Fin
wall, four years pastor of the con-
gregation of the Norwegian Baptist
church at Fargo, an embezzler?
The former Fargo divine is now
the principal figure in a scandal that
threatens to disrupt the fashionable
congregation of the Logan Square
Norwegian Baptist church OF Chi
cago, of which he has been the pastor
for the past five years, having re-
signed in order to accept call from
the Chicago congregation.
Details of the trouble that is
brewing between Rev. Finwall and
his flock are related in the following
dispatch from Chicago:
Did James J. Hill give $1,000 or
800 for the support of the Logan
Square Norwegian Baptist church of
Chicago?
There is an awful row on in the
church with the pastor, Rev. c. w.
Fihwall, supported by the younger
element on one side and the older
pecDle opposed.
The latter claim that John D.
Rockefeller and J. ]. Hill each sent
the pastor $1,000 to carry on the
work, and he spent the money as he
pleased.
The friends of the clergyman claim
that not more than 500 was receiv-
ed from Mr. Hill, and If it should
be proven that he received ST., -.
the church WI probably have a new
pastor.
Mr.. Finwall has good support to
start with as of course his wife and
five children are arrayed on his side,
The trouble has been brewing for
some time, and came to climax
the other day because Mr. Finwall
declared that the zDorcas societies,
sewing societies and church festi-
walls We're out of order.
The women of the congregation
rose in their might and declared
that their pastor must look for
new field, and he says that he will
remain where he is. The basis of
the whole difficulty is the question
of Mr. Finwall's right to spend the
church funds as he sees proper.
"a 1t is claimed that he received large
sums of money that he never account
ed for, but this claim is denied.

Mlnot Man Loses a Leg BY
Accident boys Life
/. Was Saved
Boy Is to Wear 100 Pieces
of Skin From the In
jured Man

Minot, N. D., Aug. 9.-In years to
come SeYert .Legred,l the Great North
ern fireman whose limb was ampu-
tated last evening, may take consi1-
cradle comfort from the fact that
while the limb was lost to him it
may have been the means of saving
the life of little lad who has suffered
untold agonies since his celebration of
last Fourth of July. ..>
Our. readers will recall the seri-
Gus injury suffered by Master Walter
Skeoch on the night of July Fourth.
The little fellow was carrying bunch
of firecrackers in his trousers pocket,
and in some manner the bunch ignited
and exploded in his pocket, setting
fire to his clothing and burning him
frightfully about the thighs. Since
the injury the wounds have failed to
heal and the attending physicians
have been preparing to graft on sew,
eral inches Of skin Walters little
sister had consented to sacrifice
enough of her cuticle to cover, the
wounds of her brother, and within a
day or two the operation was to have
taken place. .ES-a- .u a."
I Last night, however, when it was
learned that Legred must sacrifice his
| Deg, the doctors conceived the. plan Of
using the skin from the severed limb
to cover the wounds of Walter Skeoch
No sooner said than done. Arrange
| ments were made for both operations
and when the limb had been severed
several inches of the euticle We're re
moved and 100 small pieces were
grated onto the thighs of the boy
This latter operation was performed
after 10 O'Clock last evening, and tx
all appearances it was most success
| full. III
| This Is truly. an age of science, ant
while Legred meurns the loss of his
leg, it should be some comfort to hin
to know that 1t was a boon to the Lar
who fell victim to Americas indie
lpenednce day celebration.
