ber of ladies present, such an important
featuie OF the Henley regatta.
At the start, every competing boat
must carry a flag at its bow, showing its
college or clup colors, and any infringe
ment of the rules lays the crews open to
disqualification.
Ihe course over which all the races are
rowed is exactly one mile and $50 yards
long.
The start is made just below Temple
Island on the Bucks (Bucking hamshire)
side of the river and IS, practically, q
straight course, from start to finish, the
bends of the river being very slight and
not of nature to bother any competent
coxswain.
The races are rowed with the stream,
which runs at the rate OF about three
miles an hour, while piles at frequent,
even distances are, used to plainly mark
out the course on both sides Of the river
and white flags upon tho piles at each
quarter mile mark these distances.
The width of the course between the
piles is 130 feet.

Next to the racing the great features OF
Henley during regatta week are the fleets
of housebo ats which are ranged on the
Bucks side of the river and which extend
TO all intents and purposes from Temple
Island, at the start, TO Phyllis Court,
which is almost opposite the finish.
Phyllis Court is beauiful and pict-
uresque place, having velvety lawn,
shaded by magnificent elms, which ex-
tends from the house itself 10 the river side
" here it is eight or ten feet above the
water. The lawn OF Phyllis Court on re-
gatta days, is one OF the most attractive
sights, as it is occupied by crowds of
saily dressed ladies, who, with their
escorts, stroll beneath the shade Of the
old elm and witness the boat racing
under conditions which naturally excite
the envy OF the less fortunate excursion
lists.
Above Phyllis Court is the Isthmean
Club, to which the majority OF the row.
ing men belong. They have charming
quarters and the grounds arc bright with
many colored tents and gardenseats.
Further on is n delightful institution
known as "Clubland," to which mem
hers Of any recognized London or we'll
known out-of-town club are admit
ted.
1t has reserved lawn foe ladies and Is
very popular during the regatta week.
From Clubland on, up the course. the
houseboats, made wonderfully beautiful
with floral decorations, some Of them
being actually floating flower gardens,
are moored or anchored, side by side,
PAINTED in the brightest of colors and
having over them awnings and iron rods
to which are attached lines OF colored
lamps which are lighted at night anc
which transform the river into deligh hit
fully illuminated spectacle. On the

the performers and the endurance OF the

ON the Berks (Berkshire) side OF the
Thames in this vicinity there Is wide,
fiat plain which extends from the river
for about half a mile, at the end of which
distance beautifully wooded hills, almost
rivalgng those about Clivedon. now the
residence Of William Waldorf Astor, rise

pleasant contrast TO the lower surround

The famous towing path is on the
Borks side % the river, and along IL tho
friends of Yale expect to run todoy and
cheer the American crew to victory.
There, however, tho rushing crowd is
motley and generally uDplessant TO all
but rowing enthusiasts. Gypsies, male
and female. In various shades OF sobrlety
