CIUSTOBAIAUOLON, the jint city of Coon in. the republic of Panama, and Cristobal In the canal zone, is the Spanish name for man who sought an all-water route across l-lll.‘ isthmus, in his qucstfor a new path to Asia. But hlstotgv shows that Columbus never bore that name while living. He was born of a family known as "Colom- ho“ and when he entered the Span- ish service he changed his name to "(frlstobal Colon," yet we insist on calling him "Columbus." The Panaman and American cities of Colon and Cristobal, situated at the Atlantic entrance to the Panama canal, are so named in recognition of the great explorer, and a mas- sive bronze statue representing Col- umbus presenting before the court of Spain one of the native ind-inns of the new land he had discovered was erected many years ago on the sea front of Cristobal-Colon, and still stands as a monument to the .memury of one of the world's most intrepid explorers.
