354 CRICKET; A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. aug. 27 , m a . sity, at Oxford, and runs were got at such a rapid rate while he was in that 100 were added in an hour. Though for a time, after this he was comparatively unsuccessful with the bat, he has recently, several times shown capital cricket, and more than once at vary important periods of the gam#. His plucky play with Mr. Horner won Surrey a most exciting match at Gravesend against Kent with one wicket to fall, and too much praise could hardly be accorded te him for his excellent score of 34 not out. The following week, against Notts, at the Oval, he played sound cricket for his thirty; and again, a little later, showed to the greatest advantage against the Kent bowling, oarrying out his bat for 92 in the second innings without a mistake. In the early part of the season his bowling proved very effective, and in the first few matohes he got a large number of wickets. His best record was at Southampton, where he secured twelve for 31 runs. The heavy work, though, of the Surrey programme seems of late to have told on his bowling, and his only notable performance of late has bsen this week at Taunton, where he was credited with eight Somersetshire wickets at a cost of 57 runs. With care, Lohmann ought to make a first - class all - round cricketer. He bowls fast round, with a high delivery, and when the wicket helps him at all gets a lot of work on from the off. He is not afraid of pitching the ball up as to many bowlers are, and varies his pitch jndpace with judgment, his slow ball being '.par­ ticularly dangerous. He is likely, too, to train on into a good batsman. He plays the ball hard and can hit freely, although a little more discretion in his hitting, which will come with experience, will improve his play materially. Lohmann is also a capital field anywhere. Our portrait is from a photo­ graph by E. Hawkins and Co., of 108, King’s-road, Brighton. minority of 238, five Middlesex wickets fell before play ceased on Tuesday, four from Mr. Grace’s bowling. Yesterday West hit brilliantly, while Mr, Webbe played excel­ lent cricket, and the game assumed a better condition for the Middlesex eleven. They were unable, though, to put Gloucestershire in again, and the latter won by an innings and five runs. West’s fiuelyhit 67 included eleven fours. Mr. W. G. Grace took eleven Middlesex wickets for 120 runs. H s 221 not out is the highest score he has made since his 261 for the South against the North at Prince’s in 1877. G loucsstkbshire .

Following up their excellent performance against Surrey at Cheltenham the Gloucester­ shire eleven secured another creditable victory at Clifton yesterday, defeating Middlesex by an innings and five runs. The credit of this success was, as will be seen, in a very great measure, due to the extra­ ordinary all-round cricket of Mr. W. G. Grace. It is a long time since the great cricketer has been seen to such advantage, and everyone will be heaitily pleased at this latest proof of his matchless ability. Win­ ning the toss he went m first on Monday morning, and was not out at the finish of the innings, just after one o’clock on Tues­ day. He was altogether six hours and twenty minutes at the wickets, and his score was made up of twenty-one fours, nine threes, twenty-two twos, and sixty-six singles. He gave three chances, one to mid- off at 20, another at 72—a hard one, and a third when he had reached 182. Despite these faults*, though, it was a remarkable display of batting in every way, and one in every way worthy of his reputation. Mr. Griffiths deserves the highest praise for his defensive cricket. He was altogether two hours and forty minutes at the wickets for his 28, and as 148 runs were added during his s>ay the value of bis steady piay can be fully understood. When Middlesex went in Mr. Grace proved as successful with the b ill as he had been with the bat, and Woof and he unchanged succeeded in getting rid of Middlesex for a small total of 110, a very creditable performance, Following on in 18 Mr, H.

Score and analysis :— N otts . DERBYSHIRE v. NOTTINGHAMSHIRE. The NottinghamA ire eleven scored heavily in this mat'ch, begun at Derby on Monday, and were left yesterday with a decisive vic­ tory, having at the finish an innings and 250 runs to spare. Shacklock owing to a strain was unable to help Derbyshire, and his bowling was greatly missed. Notts winning the toss were not dismissed until they had reaehed a total of 451. Of these 291 were contributed by two batsmen, Shrewsbury and Flowers, who put on 182 runs for the fourth wicket. Shrewsbury’s 118 was worthy of his reputation. He was altogether in four hours and twenty minutes, and only gave one difficult chance when he had got 66, Flowers, though he gave several chances, hit in brilliant form. He was only at tbe wickets foiar hours in the compilation of his 173, wh’chwas made up of fourteen fours, eleven threes, nineteen twos and forty-six singles. The wicket towards the close did not play well, and the Derbyshire bitsmon made only a p >orsho?v.
