CuriOusly. Lily has always been
vaguely identified with Cecilia.
Since the former was found difficult
to trace, the Italian name LiliOla
was thought to be one OF its pro-
genitors. Ii was borne by Liliola
Gonzaga i'm 1910. but was soon soft
ened i'm I1aly to Ziliola or Cecilia.

is also sponsor for Lillian. but in
recent years the heroine OF "Roswal

flower is the accepted motive for

DISPUTE HOLDS UP
BOOZE STEAMSHIP
City of MinmHs Pal0ti0l Bar
May Be Reason.

BosToN, Feb. IA difference of
S125. 900 between what was said to have
been the estimated price Of repairs OF
the steamship City Of Miami and the
price demanded by the Bethlehem Ship
building Corporation Is responsible for
holding up that vessel In the Fore River
yards Of that company at Quincy. Mass.
The City OF Miami. which formerly was
in the ferry service between Key West
and Havana, has just undergone a thor
ough overhauling and a modern, palatlal
bar installed No one here to-day inter-
ested in the case would say whether the
cost OF the bar represented the 1925, 200
which Is in dispute.
The care came into court when the
Havana Steamship Corporation, owner
of the vessel, filed q libel action in the
Federal District Court asking for a re-
stralning order to prevent the Bethle-
hem Shipbuildng Corporation from
interfering with the steaming OF the
vessel from the Fore River yards. The
Havana company asserted that 1t was
understood that repairs to the City of
Miami would not cost more than $780,
900, whereas $4,000 was demanded.
The case will be heard tomorrow.
No matter how It is settled, travellers
between Key West and Havana will be
reJoiced to know that when the City
of Miami again is in that service she
will have a bar that will bring Joy to
the souls OF thirsty men who take pas
sage aboard her from the land OF the
