A 1904 picture of the British fishing fleet's hospital ship Alpha

The Alpha was a ship with nice and clean lines.

According to the information I have, this is the British fishing fleet's hospital ship Alpha in 1904. The ship brought the fishermen, who's ship had been bombarded by a Russian Navy ship in the North Sea on the night between October 21 and 22, to safety in Hull.
