solved the cause Of their recent defeats
by securing a brand-new coaching staff
with new ideas and harmony as the key
note.
After a series Of conferences follow
ing the 1908 season, the Tigers secured
an advisory board Of coaches, consist
ing of Phil King, Howard Henry and
Walter Booth. All of these men were
Of all-American caliber in their day
and with the exception Of Henry, have
been very successful in coaching, King
at Wisconsin and Booth at Nebraska, in
addition TO assisting at Princeton. In
addition Mccormick, captain Of two
years ago, has been made head field
coach. He viii have the assistance OF
Thomas Butkiewicz and II. II. Short In
the line, while VI. b. Sheffield and John
ny Poe viii have charge Of the scrubs.
This is undoubtedly one Of the best
coaching staffs that Princeton ever had,
and if the material that presents itself
is as good the Tigers may spring a few
surprises.
The Tigers principal weakness will be
the loss of Dillon at quarterback, though
Dillon was not at his best last year on
account Of injuries At any rate, there
is an air Of optimism among Princeton
men which seems to forecast a success

The Harvard game is the new one on

Up at Dartmouth there is plenty to
do with games against Harvard and

coming to the front with a rush Of late
years, and have hUmbIed Harvard and
Princeton just enough to make them
selves feared. This year Dartmouth is
well fortified to continue her excellent

General Corbin had been i'll for two
years. Accompanied by Mrs. Corbin
and his daughter Mrs. Usher Parsons,
of Ardsley, n. Y, he went to Carlsbad
for treatment on June II last. The
waters there appeared to have i'm
proved his condition after two weeks
stay, and he returned to England,
where his former trouble recurred, and
he went to Paris to consult physicians.
The trouble developed more seriously
while he was in Paris and he deter
mined to return to America.
]. G. Schmidt of Cincinnati met him
in Paris, and with Mrs. Corbin they
sailed for New York on the steamer
Rotterdam, which arrived here on
Sunday last.
The general was taken to the Hotel
Martinique in this city, and DR.. Frank
Erdwurm was summoned.
Removed to Hospital
The physician advised that General
Corbin be removed to the Roosevelt
hospital, and he was taken there on
Monday.
The operation was performed Tues
day morning by DIR. Lucuis Hotchkiss,
the hospital surgeon, assisted by Or.
Erdwurm and DR.. Peck.
Former Governor Herrick, who also
was staying at the Martinique, was
with the general and aided Mrs. Corbin
in the arrangements for the generals
removal to the hospital.
Following the operation, General Cor
bin revived and the work of the sur
geons was regarded as success, but
about midnight last night a weakness
of the heart developed and death en-
sued a few hours later.
General Corbin's body was taken to
his home at HighWood, Chevy Chase,
near Washington, this afternoon, and
funeral arrangements will be made
there. His burial will be in Arlington
cemetery.
