W ith only ten minutes to bat, Read was sent back for nothing, Briggs and Preston playing out time. The match was drawn, the Eleven having 155 runs to make, with nine wickets to fall, which, on such a batsman’s pitch, would not have been avery difficult task. J u n io rs . First Innings.

The cap­ tain quickly knocked a 5 and four 4’s, when he was well taken in the long-field for 29. Mr. Docker soon after was taken at mid-on for a ?ood innings of 28. Lohmann was run out 'or 7, Preston only made 1 before putting one up to mid-on, Pougher was taken at slip for nil, and, after getting 6, Brann was also captured at mid-on. Briggs (not out) 16 and Shrewsbury (not out) 10 were in when stumps were drawn, the score standing at 107 for seven wickets. The weather was very fine, but only about 400 visited the ground, which is within seven minutes’ walk of the centre of the town. S econd D ay — W ed nesday , M arch 7. In perfect ciicket weather, the game was continued at half-past twelve. The not-outs, Shrewsbury and Briggs, scored rapidly, the latter getting 14 in one over. It occupied just the hour to add 73 to the overnight’s score. Briggs was bowled for 34, the highest innings of the side, Shrewsbury was well caught at long-on, and Pillingbowied, Mr. Newham being not out 13.—Total 180. After luncheon the local men commenced their second innings. Read and Mr. Brann opened the bowling, but the Eleven had to fall back on Briggs and Lohmann to finish the innings in time to win. The second venture of the Eighteen closed for 129. W ith 7 runs to win Briggs and Preston were sent in to wipe them off. Briggs was clean bowled by the second ball delivered, and from the last of the over Mr. Newham was out “ leg-before.” Mr. Smith and Preston then quickly made the required number, the Eleven winning by eight wickets at ten minutes to six. The attendance was a very poor one, not more than 500 being present. B athurst E ig h t e e n . TWENTY-FIRST MATCH.-v. E IG H T EE N OF BATHURST. F ir s t D ay — T uesday, M a rc h 6. The team reached Bathurst at 4a.m. on March 6, and the same day began a match against Eighteen of the district. W inning the toss, the local team elected to bat on a very fast wicket, which quickly broke up, and they could do nothing with the bowling of Mr. Sm ith and Pougher, being all disposed of for 57 runs. The Eleven opened badly, as Read was caught and bowled from the first delivery, Messrs F irst Innings. Studdert, c Sm ith, b Pougher .................. R . Palm er,b Pought r Davis, b Pougher ... G.

On the second dav the innings collapsed in somewhat remarkable fashion. Blackham, who was at his best, defied all bowlers until he had scored ninety-seven. M ’Donnell (fifteen), however, was the only one of the others who obtained double figures, and the essay ended for 190. Thanks to some very fine batting on the part of Shrewsbury and Briggs the visitors then contributed 101 for the loss of one bats­ man, the scores when stumps were drawn being as under.

It will be recollected that the first meeting terminated on February 25 in a victory for the Englishmen by an innings and 42 runs. On that occasion the Colonials were decidedly unfortunate, as they had all the worst of both luck and wicket. For the match under notice they were not so strong as on’the first occasion, Jarvis, Moses, and Burn having given place to Boyle, Wood and Richardson. The weather was fine, but despite this the attendance was small. A capital wioket had been prepared and the Englishmen winning the toss electec to bat first.
