The great Spsniard landed in Jime-
nez bay May 3, 1886, and changed its
name to Santa Cruz. Here the fearless
conquistador remained nearly a year,
but owing to the hostility of the In.
dams he was unable to retain his hold
on the country and was forced to
abandon the inhospitlble shore.
In 1889 he sent Francisco de Ulloa,
who penetrated the inner waters of the
gulf and then, rounding Cape San
Lucas, sailed up the western coast Of
the peninsula. 1t must be remarked
here that the Gulf of California was
originally called Ell Mar de Cortez, and
Ell Mar Vermejo (the Vermilion Sea-,
80 called either in consequence of the
red color which it assumes at TIMES
from the countless animalcul@, or
more probably on account of numerous
red sand-patches along the shores. The

Story of Hans Christian Anderson

This new end very remarkable story
comes from Arthur Waugh, London
correspondent of The Critic, about
Hans Christian Anderson's naivete-
an almost Incredible performance,
and yet vouched for as entirely au-
thentic:
"That prince Of fairy-lore received
one Christmas box of cakes from an
unknown admirer, and at first was all
qualification at the compliment. Sud-
denly, a strange apprehension siezed
him. He had just read some account
of poison conveyed in this fashion,
possibly the gift was the murderous
device of rival. With more aptitude
than grace, he decided, in a half-absent
fashion, to send them on to his friend,
Nine. A, to test their quality. A day
or two later he called. is Nine. A.

She was we'll? Yes. The children
we'll? Yes. And she had received the
cakes sent? Eaten some? And was

And then at last the old mans excite
ment boiled over. You can't think
how pleased am, he said; those cakes
were sent me by an unknown admirer,
and 1 was afraid they might be
poisoned. So sent them on to you.
And you have eaten them, and are

wonderfully under the matchless can

snowy white flowers forms q vision of
beauty in the desert never to be for
gotten. Silence reigns supreme, 81
lence Of sepulchre, for there are
scarcely any creatures to enliven the
scenery.
Special attention must be called to
the peculiar geological formation of
the peninsula, especially north and
south of La Paz, the capital of the ter
ritory, for it is Of great Importance, as
the reader will see. Igneous eruptionS
have occurred more than once at many
points and vast areas are covered with
dark lava. GRANTEES and syenitos form
many crests, especially south of La
Paz, where the granite forms tremend-
GUS ridges, one of them being over
5000 feet high. In that rocky coast
documentary formations are also repre-
sented, cropping out here and there
among deep ravines, gulches, and dark
cliffs of the surf-beaten shore. These
sedimentary deposits consist mainly of
carbonifefOus limestone of light
color, contrasting strangely with the
dark masses of igneOus rocks. Some
times the limestone forms regular
cavities-white spots on black back
ground; often again it shows in blazes,
its shining, white surface glistening in
the sunlight like FURNISHED silver,
This is peculiar characteristic of the
coast, especially if one approach it
from the gulf. In places the forbid
ding coast is rent asunder, small
playas of deep red eand appearing here
and there, while on some rocky vol
canic point q white cave or shining
blaze will rivet the travellers attention
at once. The deposits of limestone
are occasionally found far up towards
the north, even near San Borjas, an old
mission facing the island of Angel de
la Guards, stupendous mass Of rocks
over 1000 feet high. Near these lime
stone formations are occasionally
found mineral and thermal springs.
The inhoepitable shore of Lower
California was first visited by Fortune
Jimenez in 1888. About year before
that time OOrteZ sent out vessels from
the mainland in search of unknown
lands The voyage proved disastrous
and Cortez sent two other vessels in
search of the first. These vessels were
commanded by Grijalva and Bercera de
Mendoza, cousin of the great con-
quistador. This voyage proved also
disastrous. Grijalva soon abandoned
the search and returned south, while
Bercera was murdered by the crew of
his vessel. The mutineers, led by For
tuno Jimenez, a pilot, sailed northward
and landed in bay on an island, as
they supposed. The bay was un-
doubtedly the modern La Paz. Thus
Jimenez was the first white discoverer
OF Lower California, and the beautiful
bay in which he landed was called
after his name. He did not remain
there long. The Indians rose and mas
sacred the discoverer, with twenty of
his followers. The few survivors were
able to escape with the vessels and
carry the news to Cortez, who had
resolved to go northward in person.

white spots of lime on the black shore
and wished to know what they were
1t is also easy to imagine that he called
one of the sailors acquainted with the
coast and asked him the same question
as did my Indian guide, "Que cosa esq"
The answer WAS undoubtedly the same,
"Cal forno," forno being at that time
used and not horno.
Ulloa, struck with the remarkable CO.
incidence between the answer of the
sailor and the name in Montalvo's
book, adopted the name at once and
chrstened with it the country which
before that time, as we positively
know, had no name.
Such is the theory which has all the
probability on it's side, and which is
based on peculiar characteristic Of
the new county impossible to overlook.
The question now remains: How did
Montalvo obtain the name california"
for his romance? Was it purely fanci-
full, or can its etymology and its source
be ascertained?
Edward Everett Hale suggested cal
ifa or khalifa as the possible root, but
there is nothing on which to base that
theory. think the name in Montal-
vos book can also be connected with
zeal forno." Montalvo lived for a
considerable time in the mountainous
region between the headwaters of the
Guadiana and the Granddaughter, on
the outskirts of Andalusia. That re-

Nearly six years ago, while travelling
in Lower California, fortunate acct
dent-a random query-led me to the
discovery at this late date of what
seemed to be the real origin of the
name California and the history of it's
application to the great country on the
Pacific.
Since that time I have infinitely ex-
amined all the literature bearing upon
the subject, and have, believe, fully
confirmed my theory, which is set
forth in this article.
1t is not an easy thing to travel in
the wilds Of Bsja California through
dreary and waterless wastes which re-
semble the parched plateaus Of Sahara
and barren hills of Cobb, with the diff
ference that the crests and slopes in
many instances present au impenetra-
BILE wall of enormous cacti AMI other
prickly plants. There is no stream in
which to quench the thirst, no tree to
shelter the traveller frora the burning
sun, for the agave stretches it's thick
leaves upon the ground and the san
dlewood tree with it's long and thin
twigs gives no shade. Rocks and sand,
tremendous walls of granite, deep ar
royos and frowning canyons, hills Of
gypsum and limestone, binding with
it's luster and trescherous charms
make it country over which hangs
the curse of desolation.

center of Bsjs California. 1 was COM

boundary line near San Diego to the
rocky cliff known as Cape San Lucas.
In all this extensive region there are
scarcely 10000 inhabitants. who live
chiefly in the northern and southern
part of the peninsula. Two tribes Of
Indians are still to be found on the
peninsula-the Oochini in the north,
and the Guayacura or Guaicuri toward
the middle. They are probably re-
lated to the Yumas of Arizona, whom
they closely resemble.

erse the country, steep, rocky and in
accessible. Deep canyons, immense
ravines, adamantine mesas and burning

the cloudless sky silent and gloomy,
and in its neighborhood no less tall

stretches its light stem resembling an
immense upturned carrot some sixty
feet high. The rnagney (agave shawii),
with its bright yellow blossoms, shows

gulf is even now called by the Mexicans
the Sea Of Cortez..
1t was Fran cisco de Ulloa who first
applied the name OF California to the
region he visited, as we can see in Pre-
ciados diary of this voyage. This
name was originally given to sup
posed island, on which the bay OF La
Paz was situated; afterwards it was
applied to other islands in the gulf,
and finally to all the territory north Of
San Lucas. Later the popular form
was "Las CALIFORNIA;" plural from La
California.
There is no evidence at all to prove
that Cortez ever applied that name to
the peninsula, yet there are some geog-
raphers who attribute to him the nam
ing of the country. Professor Jules
Marcou asserts without any reason,
that Cortez called the country "calida
fornax," that is, "hery furnace" and
the celebrated geographer Elisee Rec
lus, in his work on North America,
says: ITO the great captain this burn
ing region (Lower California; owes its
very name of calida fOrnax (hOt fur
nace), afterward corrupted to Cali
fornia.
The truth ie, the name of California
does not occur in any report of Cortez,
consequently he could not have named
the country.
It ia now known beyond all doubt
that the first mention of the name
California was in the old Spanish
romance by Ordonez de Mantalvo,
published in Seville, and not in Mad
rid as some assert, either in 1910 or a
few years afterwards. The romance
was entitled, "The Exploits of the
Very Valiant knight Explandian, Son
of the Excellent King Amadis of
Gaul." Montalvo describes an iceland
The herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1893-1900, 1895-12-22

of California on the right hand of the
midas, near the Terrestrial Paradise"
peopled with black women, grifhns,
and other horrid creatures of his i'm
agination.
The romance was very popular in its
day and was undoubtedly very familiar,
If not to the crew, at least to the Off
GERS of the different expeditions who
sailed from the west coast Of Mexico
to explore the countries toward the
north. But, known as it undoubtedly
was, it is impossible to think, that the
name "California" was given to the
long peninsula without any reason
and reason there was, as it will be pres
emily shown, though it escaped the at
tention of our geographers and histori-
ans. Even Bancroft himself, in his
History of California" thinks that
the name was applied in derision by

gion traversed by the Sierra Moreno
furnishes the best lime in Spain. Be-
sides the mountaineers of the country
have a curious tradition According
to it the souls of negroes, Moors, Gyp-
sizes and other intidels who become
converted must pass through bath OF
quicklime befor- they can enter the
paradise. 1t is therefore probable that
Montalvo was acquainted with the tra-
dition, and, peopling his imaginary
island near the terrestrial paradise
with black women, etc, thought the
most proper name for it would be that
which refers to lime-"cal forno,"
that is California.
In Bancroft's History of California
there are many suggestions as to the
possible derivation of the word, and
though the historian comes on one or
two occasions very near to it and even
guesses rightly the second half of the
word, the first half he derives either
from the Latin calidus or the Spanish
caliente, meaning hot. 1t seems Ger.
tain that the old Californian families
the Vallejos, Alvarados and others
had the true word from the natives of
Lower California, but they thought the
