A Genuine Four-masted Bark.
The New York Herald of Sunday had a
lie column articla ascrihinn tia poa.;

The New York Herald of Sunday had a
half column article describing the Ameri-
can sailing vessel Olympic and character
izing her as "a freak ship" The Herald
says: 'Certainly she is not a masted
ship, nor yet a masted bark OF barken-
tine, though surely she has four huge
masts.'' Then it goes on to say that the
two forward masts are square rugged,
while the two aftermasts are fore and aft
rugged. The Herald writer, however,
makes no explanation of what he calls
4 masted bark, if this is not one. To our
mind she can be nothing else than f.
masted bark; that is to say, if she had only
her three forward masts she would be a
full rugged bark, and having an additional
mast cannot make her less than a bark.
consequently she must be 4-masted
bark. 1t she had only three masts and
an were square rugged she would be a
ship, and if she ha four masts, all square
rugged, she would be 4-masted ship.
The rig of four masts, with all but e
aftermast square-rigged, has been mis-
takenl y termed by the English 4 masted
bark, but for this rig the Marine Journal
some years ago devised the name of ship
entlne. 1t seems strange that the Herald
man shouldn't know bark when he sees
one. 1t is to be noted that the Olympic
was built at Bath, Me-, by the New Eng
land Co., in 1892, and has always been
registered in the American Record, as we'll
as in Lloyds' Lists and the Bureau Yer
itas, as 4masted bark and nothing else
That this rig seems desirable one is evil
denced by the good record Of this vessel,
which is l, 469 tons gross, and has sailed
from New York to San Francisco in ia
days and from Seattle to Boston in ITO
days. Marine Journal.
