There has been handed to the Edinburgh

IS the book bore conclusive marks of hav-
ing belonging to the Advocates Library. in
auiry was made to ascertain If any light
could be thrown On when and how the MS
book had entered the New College Library
The former librarian of the New College
reported that he was not able to give any
information, and had not in fact been aware
that the book was in the library Probably
therefore, the mystery OF the passage from
the one library to the other will never be
cleared up, but II 1t could be another chap
ter would no doubt have to be added to
the romance OF missing MSS. The MS is
of the highest interest for Scottish history.

NAMES OF SAILING VESSELS.
The Biggest Of Them, and What is a
Five-M asted BarkP
From the New York Times.

FROM the New York Times.
The arrival at New York on Tuesday OF
the big German ship r. C. Rickmers called
the biggest sailing ship afoat," although
she has an auxiliary steam propeller, again
raises the question to the proper name
for vessel OF her type of rig. The r. c.
Rickmers Is q hve-masted vessel, square
rugged on all but the after mast. and is
called in Europe a ''five-masted bark" 1t
may be said that the Europeans ought to
know the proper name for their own con-
structions. but that does not necessarily fol-
low, for the first instance of four-masted
sailing ship was the Great Republic. built
at Boston, Mass, by Donald Mckay, and
never referred to by him any one else
in this country as other than four-mast-
ed Ship although the English now speak
Of her rig as a four-masted bark being
fore-and-aft rugged on the jigger The Eng
Ashman will probably ask: If you didn't
call the Great Republic four-masted bark,
how would you distinguish her from four
masted vessel sQuare-rigged on all four
masts?" The answer is simple. When the
Great Republic was built she was the only
one of her type, but when real fourmast-
ed ship was devised the rig ought to have
received distinctive name; yet 1t did not,
as it about the time the Europeans
began TO monopolize the construction of the
largest type of sailing vessels.
The only distinctive name ever devised
q
all but the jigger was that of a shipen-
tine" and on this principle the rig of the
r. c. Rickmers would be "five-masted ship
entine" If this name be adopted, there
Is no possible danger of mistaking one type
of rig for another, but otherwise what Is
known as a 'four-masted bark" is a mis-
homer for a bark Is three-masted vessel
square rugged only on the fore and main,
so that the distinction, .'four-masted bark,
means a bark with the addition of jigger
mast fore-and-aft rugged Similarly,
berkentine no matter how many masts she
may have Is square-rigged only on the
foremost A ship is square-rigged on three
masts and II is not easy to understand
how she can be made less than a ship by
having additional masts. This logic seems
very plain, but those who argue for the
bark nomenclature start from the stern In
stead of the bow, and say that bark is
a vessel with her after-mast fore-and-aft
rugged. which reasoning. however, II carried
to its logical conclusion, would make bark
out of brigantine. Is not the case lucid
in favor of an unmistakable name for yes
sells of the rig OF the R. c. Rickmers? So
far as Shipping Illustrated Is concerned,
there Is no preference for any particular
appelIation; but 'shipentine seems so nat
ural that it Is probably not worth while to
seek for any better. Some one has asked
the name OF the fifth mast on the vessel
referred to- In reply 1t may be stated
that whatever the word may be In German.
the fifth mast on an American schooner Is
known as the spanxer, the sixth as the
driver. and the seventh as the pusher.
