I amiIiar Names OF
Ocean Steamers.

Boston, Nov. THE approaching
transfer, to take place December l,
of the Boston-Liverpool and Boston
Mediterranean services of the Domin-
ion line to the White Star line will be
attended with perhaps the most re-
markable change of the names of
steamships that has ever yet taken
place-one that will, for the time be-
ing, astOnish the Atlantic ocean. That
is to say, the ships on the sea have
quite as distinct personalities as peo-
pie in the streets, and sea-faring folk
can identify them anywhere-can tell
what line they belong to and in most
cases what flag they fly by the family
traits of their names, so to speak, as
well as by their distinctive physical
characteristics. When the four big
ships of the Boston contingent of the
Dominion line fleet become White
Star liners by the change of manage
ment they will drop their appellations
peculiar to the Dominion of Canada
or to the New England states and take
up designations all of which end in
the familiar SIC" of the great fleet
they join. People who first made
their acquaintance under their pres
ent names will, for a time, be as per-
picked and make the same mistakes.
perhaps, as if a quartet of their wo-
men friends had been married at
once; but, just as inhabitants of a vii
lace soon are accustomed to the
changed names of newly made Mrs,
so the maritime native will quickly
get used to calling the Commonwealth
the CanOpic; the recently launched
Columbus the Republic; the New Eng
land the Romantic; the Mayfower the
Cretic.
To some people this changing the
names of vessels of a fleet may seem
an insignificant matter. Doubtless the
great poet who set the whole world
asking What's in a name?" when
ever the occasion offers for that famil-
lar quotation, might still argue, were
he alive to uphold the question, that
an oceangoing steamship would cross
the pond as speedily and comfortably
under distinguished numeral as I'M
der any of the steamship names so
well known to Atlantic travellers. Yes
sells might be numbered, like the

SYLLABLE land" which finds its latest
extmpIes in two American-bullt yes
sells. Finland and Kroonland. In the
international Navigation company,
which formerly controlled the Red
Star and American lines, there is an
other group OF vessels that suggests
comparison with the Dominion line
already mentioned. The names OF
this group are names of suburbs either
of London or Philadelphia.
In the nomenclature of the half hun
dred vessels of the Leyland line there
is invariably a final IAN" and more
often a final ian. The Canadian De-
vonian Winifredian and Californian
are examples of the more numerous
class: the Jamaican and Texan of the
other. So closely are the systems of
steamship nomenclature followed out
nowadays that within two months the
Levland line renamed two of its best
known craft, the Pinemore and the
Chicago, calling them the Oxonian
and the Etonian that they might bear
the family strawberry mark"
1t is not difficult to go through the
list of 140 odd ships of the Interna-
tional Mercantile Marine, for example,
and assign each to the subsidiary com
pany to which it belongs. The Geor-
gian thus stands Immediately revealed
as a Leyland steamer; the Celtic, Ced
ric or Cymric and the four big liners
to be transferred from the Dominion
fleet as ships of the White Star; Me-
nominee, Marquette, Mackinaw or
Mississippi as Atlantic transport YES
sells; or the Friesland or iceland as
Red Star liners. Once the method of
naming the vessels of a given line has
been started it is rigidly adhered to
by the owners and the great trans
Atlantic steamship companies are as
likely to change their respective sys-
tens as they are to change their flags,
the cOlors of their smokestacks or the
familiar cut of their official uniforms

oceans, and the Republic in honor OF
the United States-the latter appella-
ton now. in the case of the newest
Atlantic liner, to be substituted Tor
Columbus with particular proprlety.
Without any special intention on the
part of the company the four names
established a precedent, and in seek
ing a fifth title the final syllable OF
the first four were Joined to the word
Celt and the naming of TIE new yes
sci paid honor to the inhabitants OF
early Briton. Since the christening
of the first Celtic-for there is now
second Celtic that floats among the
very largest of the modern passenger
steamships-every vessel of the White
Star line has been given title end
ing in that one clicking little syllable,
so that wherever you see a liner or
cargo steamship with name ending
in &c" you may recognize it as be-
longing to that particular division of
the International Mercantile Marine.
Every one of the conspicuous ocean
steamship lines has the habit of nam
ing its vessels in a similarly distinc-
tive fashion. The American line, for
example, follows the custom of NAM
ing its ships in honor of the larger
American cities, as in the case of the
st. Paul and st. Louis-which have
now resumed peaceful navigation
after their more exciting service in
the Spanish war under the names of
the two oldest American universities
the New York and the Philadelphia,
the last vessel that will long be ia
nous for its part in the development
of wireless telegraphy. The Inman
line, which was the predecessor of the
American, followed a somewhat sim
liar policy, except that it named it's
ships for important cities on both
sides~of the water And the Cunarders
like the White Star liners are recog-
nizable by two distinctive final let
tiers, "ia" instead of SIC"
Usually the first vessel in the squad
ron of given company has been re-
sponsible for the christening of all
later additions, again suggesting a
certain similarity between a family of
steamships and a family of humans.

and they would be justas great a pub
lie convenience; the giant Cedric
could doubtless carry the output of
something like 400 average sized west
ern farms as successfully under a nu-
neral as under her present title. Not
only do the names exist, however, and
to the pleasant memories of ocean
travel. but they serve incidentally as
means of identifying the different
lines of steamships. AS is sometimes
the case in a human family all the
names borne by the vessels of a
given company have, with a very few
exceptions, certain distinct family
likeness, and a person closely familiar
with the sea can place almost any
deep sea steamer in its proper class

Ordinarily the modern steamship
