I On the sparkllnjr fall day In 1925 a trim freight craft loaded to the Pllmsoll mark wtth a rich carRo. was warped Into a towering dock od the San Fruiwiso water front and spnn down the bonne flag from tiier main truck for the last time. These two events marked the bc fflninR and the end of the Pacific Mail Steamship company, oldest team water carrier on the contin ent with the exception of the Cunard, and once credited wtth be ing the greatest of the world's ocean transportation companies. From the time that the Califor nia paddled Into the harbor uutil the trim Solana tied up and handed over her papers to ber new owners, the history of this company was spiced with romance and shadowed deep by tragedy. I The Caliiomla put to sea from i New York on October 6, IMS, with a happy company bound for New i Granada, far to the south where I the Americas Join, and for the' Ore gon wilderness. While she was on i the way. word came to her that gold had been discovered In Cali fornia, The news brought on a sort of treasure madness to the ship's company. She moved swiftly j down the Spanish Main under ! throbbing boilers until she came to i the isthmus of Panama. There the . treasure seekers left her in one eagr horde. Their hope was to get to Fana- Ba and catch a boat there which would get them to the new Gol or. mi a before the California arrived. They drifted up the Charges Kiver. In canoes "pole.1 along lazily by the eoppery natives who would stop for rest at very shady place. They choked the boulder lined trails that had been biased out three centuries beforu by the SnanUh conquerors bringing back the treasures of the Incas and tho Aztecs. They fell and died of fever and exhaustion when the trails gave way to tan gled Jungle growth. A tew pitiful . hundreds reached Panama at last to find no ship there. Many dropped from tho dread Charges fever while they waited. Other hundreds Joined them from other ships. The California came in sight at last.

Another who fair ly leaped over the California's side was William Van Vtiorhfe. who later became Sxrotary uf Slate of ihe United mates. The Califnruia waited and wait ed In the harbor, but her gold and mnd crew never returned.
