' The above views of the six-masted schooner Oregon Pine were snapped
In the open ocean off the mouth of the Columbia river as she dropped her
tug and set sail for the Antipodes with a cargo of lumber. The voyage of
this schooner is being watched with keen interest along the Portland water
front as an indication of the behavior of a Peninsula type shipping board
hull under canvas. The barkentlr.s Anne Comyn, a Ferris type hull, broke
a record of nine years' standing by reaching Sydney, Australia, in 52 days
from San Francisco. The Alicia Haviside, now on passage from the Golden

Puget sound to Sydney, are Ferris hulls rigged as barkentU.es.
The Oregon Pine is the first of two such schooners completed from
shipping board Peninsula type hulls by Grant Smith & Co. She set sail from
