HENLEY-ON-THAMUS, July 8 ‘The Henley Regatta will commence to-mor row, and Cornell, at 3.30 P.M, of the will meet the famoug Leander Boat Club's crew, probably the stron: est on the river. In view of tho depressing account circulated regarding the health of the 1 crew, a representative of the Associated Press had a chat with Charles B. Courty thelr coach, when he arrived at the boathouse this morn ing. Courtney looked very glum, and aie: “L do not Knew whether crew will be able to row to-morrow ‘The fact is, we have two wick men among the crew who ought not to row in their present condition, ‘They are Hager and Fennell, The latter was in 4 high fever yesterday evening. , “The two men, however, may De all right to-morrow, an I, afflicted in the fame way, feel right one day and bat the next.

Here there 1s one man who draws the names from a hat and then tears them up, none of the others seeing them. Rut this man was an old Leander Boat Club man of the highest repute and if he de- sired to favor his club he would have given them a by Courtney seems to be overanatous about the result. He has been working very hard and there is reason to believe Cornell's prospects are much better than he imagines, : Certainly there was no sign of dis- couragement among them when the boys arrived at the boat-house at 10 o'clock, It Is true that some of them looked pale, but they were all in the best of spirits and Fennell and Hager wer lively as any of them.
