260 CRICKET; A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J u l y 19 , iss3. where’s the match going on ? What’s all this ? Unsophisticated Friend. A sort of TownDerby, ain’t it ? [There is some applause in the distance. On hearing this, the crowd, who are inspect ing the hind-wheels o f carriages , try to struggle through some of the shafts. Theq are swept up agai st an open barouche. Old Etonian (losing his temper). Confounded crush ! Call this the Eton and Harrow Match ? Why, it’s more like a prize-fight! It’s dis graceful. Where are the Police ? Why, the last time I was here, in ’54, one could watch the whole thing as comfortably as— (There is another bu'si of dis'ant applause that again suddenly exci es the croivd, who are still inspecting the hind-wheels of carnages , to push , hustle, and climb frantically on to something. He is driven with a jerk on to the steps of the barouche, and his hat falls in 0 the middle o f an alfresco luncli. About to me a big D , but noticing that the lun cheon is being devoured by Ladies.) Oh, thank you, I am sure, very much. (Receives hat.) I beg your pardon ; but I really couldn’t help i t ! (Observing that the fair occupants , who smile, are quite gay with blue satin.) Ah ! perhaps you could tell me. Who are at the wicket now ? Obsetvant Young Lady who knows Everybody (rot heeding him, and continuing her conversa tion). Yes; and there are the B rotherton S m iths ; and that funny old creature in that Harrow carriage, the fourth on the left—is Lady P oppenham . And, yes,—there are the F il t e r G rubbs ; and N e ll ie and T opsy C low s . What hats!—do look at them ; and over there, just by the G r im - l e y ’ s drag, do you see him, there’s Major F oot m a n , ah, he sees, us. (Boxes knowingly to some one in a white hat and a gardenia on a carriage- wlieel two hundred yards off). Dear me, what a lot of people there are one knows here to-day. I think it’s better than it was last year. (Goes on with her lobster-cutlet. Fashionable Momma ivho knows Everything (continuing another conversation in undertone to tremendously well-dressed Friend who is deeply interested). Well, after that, my dear, there was a terrible scene,—as you can imagine! (IF/tis- pers.) Yes—and she’s at Paris now, and serve him right. Then, of course, you’ve heard all about that dreadful affair at Wimborne! Every body knew how it would end. (Whimpers again). Oli, but she did ! But people never believe any thing till it’s too late. And they’ve had to put down the carriage and everything. In fact, Entire nous , they do say—. (Whispers again, and continues to recount a long and stirring series of social horrors carefully gleaned, but not selected, for a quarter of an hour. Old Elo ian (hearing ano'her distant shoutand unable to restrain ldmself any longer). Might I ask you to be so good a3 to tell me who are at the wickets ? Fashionable Mamma who knows Everything (graciously). Well, I really don’t know, but we can soon find out. Who is it, C is s y ? Where are the wickets, dear ? Can you see ? \L 00 ks vaguely towards the entrance. Observant Young Lady who knows Everybody [glancing brightly over a sea of carriage-boxes). Oh, I think it must be Harrow ! No, it’s us, I think ! (A fter deliberation). No, it’s Harrow— at least, I think so. (Laughs pleasantly). But, to tell the truth, I really am not quite sure which it is. Ah ! there’s some one o u t! E Loud shouting to’.celebrate the conclusion oj the match. After a desperate struggle for life, during ivhich he is jammed against a wall, tripped up, deafened, and dusted, the Old Etonian, hopelessly separatedfrom h isUnsophisticated Friend, finally finds himself, exhausted and with his hat crushed, swept fonvard among a chaos o f cabs to a secure spot outside Lord's. Old Etonian (saved at last). Well, if they call that beastly picnic Cricket—I’ll be------ lUses a final big D. And there is every excuse for Old Etonian. —From Punch. LORNE v. MOSTYN.
