QuestiOn-"What is the sig

times it is spelled that way and
sometimes with all but the first

Answer-In the Old Tesla
ment, when the word is spelled
with large and small capitals
it represents the holy and un.
pronounced name Of God. In
Hebrew it is spelled something
! like "YHVH." Some Bibles
have translated it Jehovah
but most scholars agree it is
best to leave it untranslated

When the word is spelled

oungeon is clearly stated IN
Jeremiah xxxviii,6 king James
Version). There. Is some ques-
ton as to whether the Hebrew
word is properly translated
dungeon" or "cistern," but he
was imprisoned.
But, about the manner of
the deaths of Isaiah and Jere-
miah there is less certainty.
Isaiah lived in the 9th century
B. c. The last record Of Isaiah
ends when Sennaeherib Qater
King Of Assyria) invaded
Palestine in TOT B. C.
There is, however. an old
Apocalyptic writing called
"The Ascension of Isaiah" at
tributed to st. Jerome CAT
420 A. Do. In the fifth chap
ter of that writing there is a
statement that Manasseh. the
sinful King Of Judah $685.
64D, ordered Isaiah sawed in
two. But the documentary
proof OF this statement of st.
Jerome has been lost.
There Is a late Jewish legend
to the effect that jeremiah
was stoned to death, but this
IS not Substantiated BY any
Biblical record. --.

QuestiOn-"When was the
word catholic first used in
connection with the name of
the Catholic Church, and who
was responsible for the manner"
Answer-St. Ignatius Of An
tioch, third Bishop of Syrian
Antioch, seems to have been
the first to use the phrase,
rthe Catholic Church." to tes-
ttfy to the universal character
Of the church. The word
catholic" comes from the
Greek words ''kath holou" and
the literal meaning is Sin
tegral."
st. Ignatius is believed to
have been martyred at Rome
under the reign of Trajan (98-
lit A. d..
Question-"What is meant
by Shining against the Holy
Ghost'?"
AnSwer-This question prob
ably refers to the statement Of
Jesus Christ recorded in Mat
thew Kills, Mark iii,28 and
Luke xii.l0, which declares
that one who "blasphemes
against the Holy Spirit" can
not be forgiven. This is the
only objectionable" sin men
toned in the New Testament.
1t is a Christian belief that
God works actively as the Holy
Spirit, that God touches the
life of man and all creation IS
a spirit. When God forgives
sin. that is an act Of God as
the Holy Spirit.
Furthermore 1t is a Chris
tan doctrine that. while God
forgives the sins of the peni-
tent, He cannot forgive those
who become so hard-hearted or
callous as to refuse to seek
pardon and divine grace. In
other words. how can one ex-
pect to be forgiven by the Holy
Spirit If one denies the exis-
tence or agency of the Spirit? |

1881, when most Of it was carried away
by an ice jam.
After the loss of 1881, the Long Bridge
Co. sold its interests to the Government
for $4,000, and plans were made by the
Army Engineers for bridge to be made
either of steel on stone piers or of
allstone construction. President An
drew Jackson, however, rejected these
plans as too expensive, and finally
wooden structure was built after Con-
gress had appropriated $4,000 Presi-
dent Jackson and his Cabinet opened
this new span on October 1, 1885.
Like Chain Bridge upstream, Long
Bridge was heavily guarded during the
Civil War. Railroad tracks were laid on
part of it, and later separate railroad
span was built beside it.
But when the railroad engine Wizard,
pulling more than % tons of freight,
crashed through the span in 1865. the
railroad company tackled another track
onto the old Long Bridge.

just above the present Francis Scott
