Believes In Evolution

1901

Salina, Kan., June 11. — Professor Frank D. Tubbs, recently removed from the chair of natural sciences in the Wesleyan university for alleged heresy, said of his case:

"I knew nothing of the movement to oust me until the thing was actually done. I am not a heretic. I challenge any member of the board of trustees, any preacher in the northwest Kansas conference or any one else to point out a single utterance of mine that he has heard that is in opposition to the doctrine of the Methodist church. I am a consistent believer in evolution as the method which God has employed to bring things about in this world."
