HARRISBURG'S FIR
ONE STORY L
THIRD AND WALNUT STREET
Tale of the Days of Old Writ
ten by Dr. Forney Tells
of Forming of Church of
God
, In his history of the Churches of
•God. soon to be Issued. C. H. Forney,
"D. D.. IX. D.. the author, has pre
sented an interesting chapter which
throws light on conditions that ob
tained In the early church history of
this city.
Prior to the advent of John Wine
brenner in October, 1820, the peopl*.
of all Protestant denominations In the
town worshiped together—when a
minister came—ln a one-story log
wchool houae standing at the foot of
■what is now Capitol Hill on the north
west corner of Third and Walnut
streets. When the town was laid out tht.
.pioneer settlers took measures for the
ierection of a church building, with k.
'thirty-ftve-foot front in Third street.
The logs for the building were hewn
in the neighboring forests.
The Rev. Mr. Winebrenner, central
figure of the early chapters in the
book and founder of the Church of
God. appears to have had a pretty
wtormy time of it when he started
to preach and that It. was owing to
«he "kickers" that he founded his
church. Among the complaints sent
to the *sy:icd of the Reformed Church
%vere allegations that "he proceeds In
the affaires of the church at Harris
,i.jurg as If there were no vestry, as he
Haver consults therm on any occasion."
Tho Crisis
Church conditions at Harrisburg re
mained unsettled during the winter of
j $22-23, continues the history, and
finally came the crisis. Winebrenner
engaged a Mr. Brown to preach on
one occasion when he was unavoidably,
absent. As the appointee was not a
tnember of the church some of the
authorities of the church looked it up.
TYinebrenner thereupon announced
that he didn't know whether he wouki
Xiame a time for another meeting, as
he did not know whether he could
retain the pastorate.
This brought on a critical con
dition. Efforts were made by Wine
brenner's friends to bring about har- I
in on y, but affairs grew more and mor&
discordant, the vestry finally insisting
that he must conform to their rules. 1
which, of course, he refused to do
I'he Sunday following the conference
between the vestry and Winebrennei
be went to the church to preach, but
the door was locked, and a large crowd
bad collected on the pavement and |
etreet. This did not deter him and hi.'
friends, for he went to the bank of the
Rusnuehanna and there began to
preach.
Hie First Church
After an effort to heal the breech
the withdrawal was at length perma
nently made and the new church
started. There lias been a good deal
of contention over the question of
priority in the organization of Churches
of God. Claims have been urged in
favor of each of three organization,
Viz.. Lower Paxton Township, Lingles
town and Harrisburg. An exhaustive,
analysis of the matter leads the author
to the belief that the Mulberry Street
TJnlon Bethel wm the first house of
•worship built by a Church of God.

Professor Scanlon Is Figure of In

Fight on Rum
sbi
PROF. CHARLES SCANLON
Of Pittsburgh, who Will speak at Tem
perance Convention here April 3.
Onp of the great international fig
ures in tlie temperance world, Profes
sor Charles Scanlon of the Presbyter
ian Board of Temperance, will take a
most aggressive part in the first State
convention of No-license Leagues to be
held here April 2-3.
Professor Scanlon has been sent
abroad three times by as many presi
dents of the United States to speak
and to act for the temperance cause in
America. He has inaugurated and
successfully carried out the most ela
borate missionary temperance move
ment in the history of temperance
education and is now organizing a fly
ing squadron of 250 clergymen and
laymen to Invade five Pacific coast
States to make war on liquor.
Professor Scanlon recently declined
the Prohibition nomination for gover
nor because of his tremendous re
sponsibilities incident to working out
a plan to organize a world's temper
ance movement under the auspices of
the Presbyterian board of temperance.
As a member of the International com
mittee charged with the responsibility
of bringing to America the great In
ternational Alcoholic Congress In 1915
Dr. Scanlon finds himself helpless in
the matter of taking on any new du
ties or any new responsibilities. He
is also a member of the executive com
mittee of the Temperance Commission
and in his address here in the Chestnut
street auditorium at 8 o'clock, Friday
evening, April 3. Professor Scanlon
will presest the exact temperance situ
ation as it is throughout the world
with specific reference to the church
and the liquor traffic.

BISHOP SHANAHAN TO
VISIT POPE AT ROME
Head of Harriiburg Diocese Plan
ning to Go to Italy Some Time
Before End of Summer
MMaHaaaMHB About ninety arch
bishops, bishops and
monsignori, with their
secretaries and suites,
numbering in all some
.. six hundred prelates,
•' ..l i | will go fro ni the
MKrB United St a te a and
Canada this spring
,-lyjHH and summer upon offi
cial visits to Rome.
lifcLJl!iWUlr number includes
,wo ° lho three
Mm Jjßm American cardinals,
Gibbons and Parley,
and eight of the thlr
»|' r fi.l teen American arch
bishops.
Bishop J. \V. Shanahan. of the Har
risburg diocese, will be among the vis
itors to Rorpe. He has not yet set the
date for his sailing.
Under Pope Pius X a new order has
been followed. Instead of bishops of
many countries visiting Rome at the
same time, dates have been agreed
upon for individual countries, so that
the Vatican considers Catholic outlook
and Interest by countries. This year it
will consider North America. Hence
the large number of prelates attending
to make reports.
Bishop Shanahan arriving in Rome
will at once hand his official report to
the sacred consistorlal congregation.
The secretary of this famous congre
gation is the Cardinal de Lai, who, if
the next conclave continues present
policies and follows what are thought
to be the wishes of Pope Pius X, will
be the next pope. He has been rap
idly promoted by Pope Plus X until he
is now the most influential of the
Italian members of the college, and,
with four others, holds the highest
rank. Hishop Shanahan will next go
to pray at the shrines and to appear in
the parish church to which he is offi
cially assigned if a cardinal. In each
case he will see that his visit is regis
tered, that he may prove his visit if
need be. Lastly he will visit the pope,
make verbal report of conditions In his
diocese and answer any questions that
may be asked of him, Here the offi
cial visit ends.

Introduction of new and progressive
ideas and a steady hand at, the helm

been guided over many rough places,

Dr. and Mrs. Leidy, with their fam

THE REV. JAMES F. BULBITT
When he decided to enter the church
in 1892, seven years after he had been
graduated from the university, he left
a home of wealth to become shepherd
to a parish, the majority of whose
members were poor laboring people.
It is characteristic of the man that he
was as much at home and as well
liked in the humble dwellings of his
parishoners as he was at the dinner
table of a Drexel or a Biddle.
Builder of Young Churches
The Rev. Mr. Bul'ltt has been rec
tor of St. Andrew's for three years.
This is the largest parish he has had
since he entered the church, for the
reason that he had spent his years as
a* missionary and builder of young
churches. He counts as his greatest
achievement his work at Westlield,
Massachusetts, and Clifton Heights,
where he cleared the church of debt
and rebuilt a parish that was losing
heart. At Parkesburg he built the
present church structure. When he
was sent there, only a few members
attended the services which were held
in a little room above a tinshop.
Mr. Bullitt is a man who Interests
men and holds them in his ohurch.
He understands them. He Is a minis
ter who can make men feel that he
is human without losing their respect,
lie has presented for confirmation only
three less boys and men than girls
and women in the twenty-two years of
