PETER NOT POPE SAYS DR. I'LEOD
An Interesting Lecture Treatin ; Two
Sides of a Much Contended Ques
tionSt. Peter's Character in Its
Consistent Inconsistency Graphi
cally Portrayed He Was the Most
Changeable, But the Most Enthusi
astic Disciple.
N la tbe First Presbyterian ohnroli,
Eev. James McLeod, D. D., last even
ing delivered the first ot a series of
Sunduv eveutnif discourse on "Tbe
Early Years of Christianity." His sub-
jret was -The FirBt Pope."
nis text whs Mattu. 10:18 "1 say
unto tbee, tb it thou art Peter, and
upon tbis rock I will build my Cunrcn,
and tbe gates of bell shall not prevail
iiguinst it."
"Ihese words of our Lord." said Dr.
McLeod, "have been the occasion of a
great deal of controversy. As to their
true meaning. Christendom is about
tqnnily divided. O.ie great sect of
Uunstlans claim that when our Lord
luldressed Peter, H constituted him
tbe bead of His church. Another grat
sect deny tbis claim altogether. Vol
umes bave been written on both sides
of tbis controversy. One party would
have us believe that St. Peter was the
first pope of Rome, and that the pres
ent pope is bis lineal and legitimate
successor. Tbe other party would
have us believe that such doctrine Is a
pure assumption and that it is both un-
scriptural and nubistoric. The Roman
Catholic cburcb occupies the on? posi
tion, the Protestant church occupies
lue other.
"Without attempting to discuss the
question, it may not be amiss to refer
to one or two facts which are related
to it
"If it be a faet. ns alleged, that St.
Peter was tbe first pope of Rome, is it
not strange that the New Testament
is silent on this subject? Not one of
the apostles or evangelists refer to it
If St. Peter ever was pope ot Rome, he
was pope wbeu st. Paul wrote bis
famous epistle to the Romans; and be
must have been pope when St. Paul
lived in Rome; and he .'must have been
pope wheu St. Paul wrote so mauy
letters from Rome, but neither in bis
letter to Home, nor in his letters from
Rome, does St. Paul refer to Piter as
pope. bt. Paul sends his greetings to
many Christians in Rome, but be does
not even mention the name of Peter.
Indeed there is not a word in th New
Testament that would lead us to sus
pect that Peter even was in Rome,
much less that he was pope. Is not
this silence of Scripture slgnifioaat,
THE POSITION OP 8T. PAUL.
"Still further, instead of St. Paul tell
ing us that St Peter was pope, and
that be was the bead of tbe ciiurcb,
and instead of paying to him that
homage which, if pope, be deserved, he
took him severely to task and "with
stood him to the face because he was to
be blamed" a fact which would go to
prove that, at least on that occasion,
St. Paul was pope rather thin St.
Peter. Tbe claim that St Peter be
came tbe pops of Rome about tbe year
40 A. D., and that be occupied tbe
papal ohair for twenty-live yenrs, is
made necessary in order to support the
theory of the cbuich that makes the
claim. It is a elaim which has tbe
merit of boldness, and multitudes bave
believed it in all sincerity. It is a oap
tivating illusion. Whatever merit it
may have, it is but truth to say that It
has not the merit of historic accuracy.
It is quite certain that St. Peter, after
be was rebuked by St. Paul, never at
tempted to lord it over God's heritage.
He never claimed any superiority over
his brother apostles.
"Imagine, if you oan.St, Peter play
ing the part of Adrian IV, or of a Hil
debrand, or of a Leo XI Tbe whole
world kuows that St. Peter would have
suffered martyrdom rather than b a
party to such an unholy bargain no
was consummated between Adrim IV
And Henry II of England. Imagine, if
yon can. St. Peter hugging to his
bosom a Duke of Alva, or a Philip II,
or a Charles IXl Imagine, if you can,
St. Peter bestowing his apostolic bene
diction upon, aud striking a medal in
honor of, the monsters of cruelty who
planned and who executed the mas
sacre of tbe Innocents and the slaugh
ter ot the Hugenotsl If I am not to
tell you at this time who the first pope
of Home was, 1 may and will tell you
wbo he wus not He was not St.
Peter.
IN ITS HISTORICAL LIGHT.
"Tbeso bints are thrown out for yotii
consideration, and others will be
thrown out from time to time (f-ir thin
course of sermons is to b, in part, nt
least, historic il) in tbe hope that mum
of us may be induced to study more
closely tbe life of St. Peter as we find it
in Scripture, and in tbe hope, also, that
me may be induoed to read with card
tbe history of the early years of Christi
anity. "But if St Peter was not the first
pope he was, for a time, the wont
prominent member ot the apostolic
band.
"We know but little of bis early life
He was a fisherman and tbe son of a
fisherman, and we may be sura that bi.
hardy, rugged, fisherman's life served
him a good purpose during tbe stormy
years of bis apostlesuip.
"We bave been reminded that wheu
we first meet St. Peter in the history
we find him a married man and living
with bis mother-in-law i fact ne
creditable to her as it is to him. She
was doubtless a good mother-in-law
and we know that hewas a good son-iu
law. It is, perhaps, worthy of note,
that if St. Peter was the first Pope of
Rome, then, beyond all question, the
first Pope ot Rome was a married rutin
"The character of St. Peter was by
no means supernatural or prsteroatu
ral. On the contrary be was an in
tensely bnman character He was a
man ot like passions with ourselves.
He bad his little weaknesses and bis
glaring faults. He was thoughtless at
times and too ready to speak. His
temperament was mercurial. His lm
petuous nature got him into serious
trouble betimes. From one point oi
view ne was ai bundle or contradictions.
He was 'consistently inconsistent'
Today he ia the bravest of tbe brave;
tomorrow be Is the veriest coward.
This honr tbe Master reoognlzes bim
as His great apostle; the next He says
to mm: "(jret tbee behind Me, Sitan;
tbon art an offense unto Me.' Today
St. Peter Is ready to die for his Lord;
tomorrow be is quick to deny Him and
to ioreake bim.
HIS PECULIAR CHAR ACTUS.
"Great, grand, strange contradictory
onaraoier, ton or. Tbt. reieri as bad
bis faults, but be was sound at the
oorel One is inolined to forget his
failings Wblle.'admlrlng bis virtues, Hi
great, big.tendsr.sympathatlo heart was
iuu ot love to (jurist, lie never meant
to deny his Lord. When be said that
be was ready to follow Christ to prison
or to death he meant every word of it.
It bis fall was grievous his repentance
was genuine, and when be said to tbe
Master 'Lord, tiion kuowest all things;
thou knowest that I love thee,' be said
it with a broken spirit and a contrite
heart
Whether he was pone or not, St.
Peter has won for bimsolf, or rather,
ttie Savior bus bestowed up m turn au
everlasting nam.'.
We will have somvthiugto any. ul
another titu-, about St. Ho Mr us a
preacher aud as a valiant defender of
the faith; for he lived and labored an I
Huffered and died for Christ' i suite.
"That be died a martyr there is no
doubt, He knew that suuh w al l bs
the manner of hU dxutii, for Chi ist toll
biut. That be died iu R.uw is mora
than probable; that he was crucified
with his haad downward is a tradition
whioli can never be verified, Hint mul
titudes bave been, and still are credu
lous enough to accept as faots many
things couoerniug St, Petr wbioh are
legendary, improbable and utihlstoric
will bardly be disputed, iiut eveu
though they are mistaken it must be a
great delight to them as it lias been
said, to trace tbe footsteps ot St. Peter
by tbe banks of the Tiber, to witness
beBide the ADpiun Way the soene ot
the most beautiful ot ecclesiastical
legends, which tells of St. Peter's last
vision of his crucified Lord; to over
look from the supposed spot ot bis
death, the eity of the seven bills, aud
to believe that bis last, remains repose
under the glory of St. Peter's dome.
"As for us. while, with good reason,
we rjeet the popedom claimed tor
him, we gladly accept bis faith, aud
we rejoice in the fact that his Lord and
Redeemer is our Lord aud Redeemer,
also. Let it be our aim to follow Peter
as he followed Christ."
Dr. McLeod's topic next Sunday will
be "The First Pole's First Sermon, "
with further sketches of Sc. Peter.
VERY FORCIBLE TALK
Rev. J. A. O'Reilly Denounces In Un
measured Terms Liquor Sel
lers Who Violate Laws.
At the 9 o'clock mass in St Peter's
cathedral yesterday morning, tbe rec
tor, Itev. J. A. U Reiliy, denounced in
no uncertain terms the saloon keepers
wbo violate the law by keeping open
nntil long after midnight on Saturday
and during Sunday, Not satisfied
with ruining bodies ana souls by deal
ing out their liquors to whomsoever
has the price to pay for it, some seek to
iucrease their revenues by allowing
questionable characters to friquent
their places, while others apparently
lost to all sense of decency rent apart
ments to these people.
Th justice ot Uod, Father O Ksilly
SAid, will certainly overtake these
harpies whom greed for wealth bas
tnrned into vultures and tbey and their
descendants will; be punished in God's
own way.
1 lie speaker besought parents to
watch carefully over their children
nod save them from tbs evils which
suoh resorts spread broadcast. He ad
vised good Christians and good citi
zens to stand up for their Tights and
rid tbe community of all drinking
places which conduct their business in
open defiance ot the laws of God and
man.
Tbe proprietors of these place, be
said, will go to cbnrch and proitrate
themselves before Uod, but to wbut
avail? Tbey have no sincerity and
make a mockery of religion by their
hollow protestations of love for tbe
Savior ot munkind. They must give
up tbeir present method of doing busi
ness, he declared, for it will not be tol
erated. The evil is a crying one and
calls loudly for redress.

Mrs. B.T.. Jovns sanu. "Cl.rlut U
Passing This Wuy"and was followed
by Rev. Warren Q. Partrldiic who In
a brief address said tbat during bis
resiuence in Scranton he bad not seen
a time when people of the city bad
oeen so anxious to banr of Christ and
it was a glorions privilege to him to
stand there and eommend to the
young converts tbe words, "Tbat
without faith it was impossible to
please God." Tbey had beard tbe
rofflj of the clothing of tbe Divine
Presence in tbe meetings and tbe emo
tions of men aud women bad been
stirred, but as Evangelist Schiverea
had said early in tbe mission It was not
quantity bnt quality ot Christian dis
ciples they wanted. He then made a
powerful exhortation to tbe young con
vorts, urging them to remain strong In
tbeir new faith aud to put tbeir entire
trust in Him wbo oonld save all.
Rev. W. 11 Pearce said it was a ioy
for bim to utter bis thoughts end ad
vised tbs young converts to bave an
unyielding fuitb in Jesus to carry tbsm
tbrouih their whole life, and tbey
wonld journey through the world euo
ccssfully in tbs face of all assailants.
General Secretary Mabv of tbs
Yonng Men's Christian association also
spoke upon the same subject. The
greatest temptation to yonug Chris
tians was tbat tbey allowed their light
to go out when tbey should shine
brightest, and urged upon them that
wherever tbey may bs to let tbeir
Christianity be known, to gather
strength and also to do good nnto
others.
Evangelist Schiverea spoke upon the
word "Now." God's time was "now"
so far as man's peace, salvation, re-
lemption, pardon aud beaven was con
cerned, it was ready "now," and now
we may know if we are tbe children of
God. It was only a question of princi
ple. God must be taken at His word.
Faith in Him wonld bring ai out the
certaiuty in the young convert that be
bad been saved.
tiARQEBT OltOWD YET.
The largest crowd irntbsrsd during
the mission was asstmbled last night
within and without the tent. A praise
song was beld for about an hour, con
ducted by C. F. Wbittemore. Tbe
evangelist delivered a sermon on tbe
parable of the rich man who set up
greater barns an i saiJ:
I could not understand why Christ called
this man a "fool." He was a man wbo
was wuely preparing his plans for tbe
future. If this man was in bcra iton and
carried out the snma pinna, be would be
nigniy respected aud would be tie center
ot attraction, yet uoil calls bim a fool.
Why does be so call himf Because be does
not tnae Uod iuto his calculation, although
he makes use of Uod's sun, bis dew, and
his grounds; he bas uo ue for Uod bimielf,
Uod was not recoguized lu bis plans.
Huve ne not msny of these inea in our
midst today f Why, only todny a man
publicly acknowledged that he did not be
lieve in immortality; that he would die us
a cow, aud his ihiluren as pui py iloits.
lbe young man going to coil ge, vuo
shapiug l.u future destinies lesve- Uod ont
ot bis pluus, cun bop for no ultimate
good, unci the (atner or mother who, fi.y
iu their children sil educational facilities
but leaving out all prayers and ail mention
ot the name of Jesus, cunuot hoj e for tbe
wellitre aud happiness of their chlldieu.
I was preaching ut the couu'y jail this
itfiernoon, ami did not meet witu one man
who bad talteu (iod Into bis plans. If we
did so we would not know what a police
man was ; the Juils und saloons would
cease to exist.
AN INSANE ACT.
It is an hisaue net to try to satisfy the
spiritual soul with temporal things like
the man of tbe texi.' Traveling nd luxu
ries will not satisfy the cravlnit of the
soul ana that feeling of unrest until Uod
ir j art or your plans.
It it aWo i:iNne to m ike all li plans
for this earth with uo tbuugiit of tbe lifro-
uftor. Tuere are plenty of men before
me who hsve never kIvwii live minutes
tbjught to the great hereafter although
t hey have witnessod tbe si ores wbo huve
bean swept swiiy unprepared wh it an in
sane act for a man to live for this lire
without preparations for tbe next world
Lay not your treasures my friends
lu trying to satisfy yourselves on
earth aud having no treasures
in heaven. Be savs to you tonight, "Thy
soul may be saved." Bow? By taking uiin
as your Saviour. By laying ti e mures in
beaven as well as on earth. We ought to
take care ot our bodies but bow much
more care ought we to take of onr souls. A
man has beeu after me through tbe valley
wanting to Insure my life, but I told him
tbat my life was insured, and agninst fire,
too. The man appeared surprised, but ap
peared to grasp the matter when I told
bim it wss the fire of eternal damnation.
Let me beseech you In God's name get your
soul's Injured. xour wits and children
will be well provided for. Don'tstop there;
what about yonr own soulr Remember
there Is a next world. Don't, I pray yon,
leave this tent and God to call you "Thou
fool." Be a man Dy deciding to bave your
soul saved, and God bless you, men and
women, let your never-dying soul be saved
tonight.
An after meeting wss held, in which
several knslt at the penitent bench.

covery, loose hopes were shattered
yesterday when a telephone message
from bor o nisin.Dr. Charles IL Uobsn,
uunouoc-d h -r death.
Miss Ruddy bad lived in Scranton
since ber childhood. She was educated
in tbe Scranton schools, graduating
from the high sobnol in the class of
8i0. Soon afterward she was ap
pointed a teacher in the public schools
of tbe city and bad taught successfully
ever since, tbe greater part of tbe time
as principal of tbe primary department
in scbool building No. 10 on the West
Side.
Deceased was a most amiable and
engaging girl. No person who cams
within tbe sphere of ber influence
could fail to be attracted by her. At
borne she was a model ot daughterly
love and obedience and of sisterly af
fection. Ia society she was the light
and life ot tbe circle in which she
moved. Her brigbt and joyous tem
perament prevailed even during the
months of her illness, when a less buoy
ant nature would bave yielded to des
pair. She loved children and delighted
in imparting to them her stories of
Knowledge and there are many proofs
tbat ber love was reciprocated by the
tbe little ones. She was most popular
also with ber co-workers in edncation
wbo willingly attest ber zealous work
and ber great success as a teacher.
From her earliest days Miss Ruddy
wss piously inclined. She was a faith
ful member of lbs Catholic cburoh and
tnuoh devoted to church woik in tbs
Cathedral congregation. Her last
moments were cheered by tbe consola
tions which religion gives to the trne
believer.
Tbe surviving members of tbe fam
ily are ber mother, Mrs, Elizabeth
Ruddy, her brothers, Rev. John J.
Ruddy, reetor of tbe Catbolio church
at New Bethlehem, Pa., Messrs. Jamss
b., Thomas A. and Michael, and ber
sisters, Misses Maggie, Nellie, Sarah
and Mamie.
Telegrams last night indicated tbat
the remains would arrive in tbis city
at 1 o'clock this afternoon. Tbey will
be aceompunied by Mr. and Mrs. James
Hi. Kuddy, wbo went to Philadelphia
ou Saturday, and Miss Nellie A.
Rnddy. Funeral notice later.
