T rott have been elected honorary life members of the South Melbourne C.C.—the highest dis­ tinction a club can confer. T he Earl of E gm ont, who is disposing of his Irish estates, has sold Lohart Castle, near Kanturk, on which it is stated he recently ex­ pended £40,000, and the beautiful grounds, to Mr. T. C. O’Brien, the well-known M iddlesex cricketer. Up in Johannesburg Mr. C. H . Vintcent has been showing brilliant batting form— three centuries, the first tw o in following innings, 102 not out, then 140 not out, and the highest total in his third century 168 run out. This, it is said, is unequalled in South African cricket records. T he Annual Smoking Concert of the H igh­ gate Bohemians C.C. will be held in the Grand Hall, Freemason’s Tavern, Great Queen Street, W .C ., on Dec. 12. The chair will be taken by Mr. W . W .
