First Innings. Second Innings. THE CANTERBURY WEEK. KENT v. GLOUCESTERSHIRE. The time-honoured festival on the St. Lawrence Ground,commenced on Monday under inauspicious conditions. Rain had fallen pretty heavily over­ night, and a leaden sky and more showers augured ill success for the first match of the week. But a change was at hand, and the five thousand spectators were in the end treated to three hours’ cricket W. G.’s. absence from the West countrie side was a great disappointment to hundreds who had come in the hope of seeing him bat. Mr. Manley Kemp was too unwell to keep wicket for Kent, and Mr. Marchant, who has failed so often this season, determined to stand down. Mr.W. H. Patterson was fortunate to win the toss for Kent, and thereby got the best of the wicket. Kent monopolised thethree hours of Mondayandwell into the Tuesday. Everything in the batting paled before the fine performance of Alec Hearne, who went in first, and took his bat through the innings for 116. Without making a mistake, he was batting four hours and a quarter, and his chief hits were fifteen 4’s, five 8’s, and thirteen 2’s. On a wicket grown treacherous under the influence of tbe aun the Gloucestershire batsmen cut a sorry show against the admirable bowling of W. Hearne and Martin, and Mr. Ferris proved to be the highest scorer with 26. Martin bowled unchanged, and his five wickets only cost 40 runs. Following on 165 to the bad Gloucestershire fared much better at the second attempt. Mr. Radcliffe and Painter played ia good free style, and the latter was not out when play ceased on Tuesday with 19 out of a total of 106 for six wickets to his credit. Painter continued to hit freely yesterday, and of the 82 added, his share was 46. He was in less than an hour and a half, and ultimately carried out his bat for 65, in which were ten fours. Though at the finish, Kent onlv wanted 24 to win, Murch and Mr. Ferris were so well on the spot that Messrs. Knowles, who again failed to score, Fox,jand Weigall were all dismissed before the winning hit was made. Kent accordingly won by seven wickets. K ent .—First Innings. Mr. E. M.

Some high scoring was the result of this match at Darlinuton last Friday and Saturday. In the two days, 945 were got for thirty wickets, a substan­ tial proof of the excellence of the ground. Wardall’s batting was again one of the best features on the Yorkshire side. There were three scores of a hundred in the match. Wardall and Wainwright each made 107 in Yorkshire’s second innings. The game was drawn, Durham wanting 242 to win with all their wickets in hand. D u r h a m . Butler, c Hall, b Peel 18 Mr. J. Brown, b War­ dall ........................46 Mr. H. B.

LANCASHIRE v. YORKSHIRE. The great promise with which the Yorkshiremen began the season has not recently been fulfilled. Yesterday witnessed another reverse at Man­ chester, the verdict being an innings and 83 runs in favour of the Lancashire Team. Going in first on Monday, Lancashire put together 437 for four wickets, and on Tuesday the remaining batsmen added 34. There were three partner­ ships of over 100, those of Ward and Smith, Ward and Briggs, and Briggs and Baker. Ward has never played such a fine innings for his county as his 180 this week. He made no mistakes, and contributed 28 fours during his stay of four hours and a quarter. Briggs ran up his 115 in two hours and a half, and his chief figures were sixteen fours. Lancashire’s innings lasted altogether six hours, so that the rate of the scoring was just under 80 an hour. Yorkshire, on
