iTJhe JianJiume yacht-like American
barkentine Puako, commanded by
Captain A. C. Pedersen, and carrying
J,400,000 feet of , fine Washington
lumber, loaded at the Columbia mills
at.Knappton, cleared from this port
yesterday, and will fpread her white
wings today, for a long flight over
two hemispheres of the blue Pacific,
en route to Sydney, Australia. She
' shipped her,', crew? yesterday, ' eight
men and a' first mate, and is in per
fect sailing order, in every detail of
seamanship, equipment, and , busi-
. ness, ..
She takes out with her as pas
sengers, Mr. and Mrs. Clugston. well
known actors in the New York dra
matic field, who came up from San
Diego to join the ship, the . voyage
being made in the interest of Mrs.
Chilton's health, which is none of
the best. These two were busy here
yesterday, purchasing steamer chairs
nips, and other impedimenta essen
tial on a long cruise of the sort, and
they leave with many pleasant antic
ipations of the delights incident to a
tropic and sub-tropic journey, on so
fine a ship; for the Puako is one of
the star vessels of the American
registry and is built for all manner
pf services. She is a reputed racer,
and on her trip to this port from the
IIavaiian Islands, kept a crack
steamship in clear sight for 50 hours
and would have gone " into coast
range with her if the wind had not
fallen. s
There are three of the fleet to
which she belongs involved in a
time-bet of ?500, which are the Koko
Head, hence from this port for New
Zeland a few weeks ago; the Kohala,
due to depart from Willapa Harbor,

hip that sails this morning,' the .bet
as between the Puako and Kohala
being for the vessels that covers the
run first; and as among the three for
the best time made on the two cours
es; and it may be weU . understood
that the Puako will not lose a foot
of . distance nor a breath,-, of wind
between the mouth of the Columbia
and the lights that mark the Sydney
entrance. . , - .
It is said that the Puako has a
lively and capable crew and is well
officered. With "IIeH-fire' Pedersen
to direct her every movement and
guage her sailing powers to the
course he will lay, there is a fight
worth the telling, in the adjustment
of those bets. The Puako was built
at Oakland in 1902, pf the very finest
materials ever, used in the construc
tion of a vessel on this coast. She

At a meeting yesterday of several
of the gentlemen who are interest
ing themselves in .the formation of
the Athletic Club it was decided to
hold another stockholders meeting
nest Thursday niht at 7:30 o'clock.
The meeting will be held in the
county court rooms. : - '
' It will be good news for many to
learn that the project of financing
the club now looks very promising,
and that comparatively litle difficulty
is anticipated in successfully launch
ing the enterprise. Ur course the
question of maintaining interest in
the organization and of continuing
the requisite income ear after year
is one that cannot be determined
now, but the future looks bright
enough and it is hoped that no dim
eulties will arise.
While no definite time is set for
the opening of the club, it is hoped
by Thanksgiving to have everything
in full swing, and plans are being
made to celebrate the launching of
the organization by a ball on the
night of that holiday. -
The committee on bylaws, consist
ing of Harry Hoeflcr, J. C McCuc
and Herman Prael, will be ready to
report at the stockholders meeting
Thursday night. Some of their pro
posed by-laws will doubtless meet
with favor from most of the well-
wishers of the dub. One by-law wilt
absolutely forbid all sorts and kinds
of gambling. Another will forbid
cigarette smoking. There will, how
ever be a smoking room, where the
adults may smoke a pipe or cigar. ;.. :
A billiard room will also be pro
vided. Two tables have been arrang
ed for. Thus it appears as if the
men . back of the' organization are
seeking, to add some of ' the-attractions
-of a club to the gymnasium,
and in this respect the organization,
can perhaps fulfill a want that is a
lamentably felt in Astoria, and has
been felt for many years. It appears
as if the men are going at the mat
ter very sanely and with much prac
tical wisdom. It is planned to make
it neither too narrow nor too broad.
In addition to the smoking room and
the billiard room, there will be a read
ing room. . Of course the athletic
part of the club will remain the main
consideration, and these other fea
tures are only brought in to strength
en the club and because they are felt
to be a necessity for the town's
young men.
There are now over 300 applicants
for membership. There may be a
falling off,-' there may be gains on
this number. This of course includes
all ages. Much will depend on the
selection of a physical director, but
nowadays it is., an. easy matter to
secure men specially trained for
just such services, as thc Y. M. C.
A. alone throughout the country
uses at least several thousand every
year, and they are trained - for the
work, just as men are who take up
any profession. Their trainng con
sists in athletics, and especially in
handling men and boys, to the end
that interest may be maintained, and
in all those things that are required
of a man who is placed at the head
of a big organization of this' nature.
Years ago it was; found that a man
might be a first class athlete and yet
be simply , worthless as the" head of
such an organization. ;
The running expenses of the (lub
will come pretty high, it is said. - The
rent alone t will amount to . upwards
of $150 a month. Perhaps the entire
running expenses will amount' to up
wards of $400 or $500 a month. - ....
