And sonorous Spanish names have
been scattered over California, so that
the names of a great number of places
begin either with "San" or "Santa."
ID some cases a subtitle, as it were,
has been affixed. For. Instance, we
have San Luis Rey and San Luis Obis.

Louis the Bishop), also San ..litan

it was named "Isluestra Senora de los
Angeles" (Our Lady of the Angels).
This name 10 altogether too bulky for
frequent use, so the early officers short,
ened it to "Angeles."
One curious name among the saints
Is that applied to a picturesque little
settlement on the divide between the
San Gabriel and Pomona valleys -San
Dimas. San Dimas, he it known, was
0130 01' the two men who were crucified
at either side ef Jesus -the one who
asked to be remembered by the Lord
when he ohould enter into paradise.
He is the patron saiut of robbers. The
Way this. name came to be given to
the San Gabriel valley village was
thus; In early days a gang of Mexican
horse thieves had their "lair" in a
=yen. there, which wns subsequently
referred to as the Robbers' canyon or
the canyon of San Dimas. When the
Santa Fe railroad came along and
laid out the statioe there the name of
the canyon was adopted; hence San

followers from remote antiquity. in

history there are frequent tieferences
to this subject, while demons, python-
.esses, sibyls, augurs and soollisayeril
have their places in the secularlinuals
. of mankind.
In its modern form spiritualism,
dates only from the forty-eighth.year
of the last century, w11011, at the house
