G2 HAMPSHIRE COUNTY CLUB. A meeting of the committee of the above club was held on the 20th inst. The principal business was to consider a scheme of Dr. Pen­ craft, the hon. secretary, for providing a new score-box, ladies’ pavilion and football stand, at a cost of about £320, to be raised by £5 debentures, paying four per cent, per annum. Dr. Bencraft’s scheme was carried unanimously. The football stand is intended to hold 350 persons, and will be erected and ready for use by February 1st. When the debentures are all paid off, the stand, ladies’ pavilion and score-box will be­ come the property of the County Club. M id d le s e x C o u n ty C lu b . —At the annual general meeting of this club, held at Charing- Cross Hotel on Dec. 1, it was shown that the balance in hand had increased (apart from a sum of £700 invested in Consols) from t*3C8 168. lOd. to £1014 17s. 9d., of which it was resolved that a further sum of £700 should be invested in Government securities The year’s working with regard to matches showed a clear profit of .£886 17s. 6d., apart from the home fixture with Surrey in August, given as a benefit to Buiton,who cleared about £272. The officers (president, Earl of Stafford ; vice-presidents, Lord G. Hamilton, M .P ., and Mr. V. h. Walker; hon. sec., Mr. P. M. Thornton, M P. assistant sec., Mr. J. A. Mur­ doch, with the Committee) were re-elected. THE ARISTOCRACY OF SPORT. The Globe , which sometimes allows itself to drift into the humorous, is re­ sponsible for the following :— General regret will be felt among all lovers of the national game that the famous Surrey professional, George Lohmann, has, acting on the advice of his medical man, decided to winter abroad. Mingled with this feeling of regret, however, an emotion of pride and satisfaction can hardly fail to be awakened in the minds of all enlightened sportsmen at the mode in which the announcement is made. It is not thrust away in some obscure corner, nor set forth in small type, but it is to be found in the personal paragraphs which immediately succeed the Court Circular in the Times. There, in immediate juxtaposition to a notice of the matrimonial intentions of Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria, and following close on a series of paragraphs relating to the movements and health of Ambas­ sadors and Cabinet Ministers, we encounter the intelligence ^that Mr. George Lohmann has determined on the step in question. What ampler or more significant recognition of tho social im­ portance of the professional cricketer could be wished for ? Times indeed have changed from the days when attempts were made to belittle his status. Not many years ago, an article appeared in one of our great public school magazines in which the professional cricketer was denounced as the “ apex of absurdity,*’ and it is related that the old Yorkshire county cricketer retained to coach the school eleven, on being shown the passage, retorted with considerable spirit, “ Apex ! ’O’s ’e ? ” The insult has now been triumphantly avenged. The announce­ ment in to-day’s Times is, we think, a conclusive answer to the critics. More than that, it is thoroughly in keeping with the democratic spirit of the age. The exclusive privileges of the aristo­ cracy of birth are a thing of the past. The average man takes quite as much interest in the fortunes and movements of the aristocracy of sport. W isden ’ s C ricketers ’ A lmanac , 1893.— The thirtieth edition of “ W isden, ’ in its fam iliar buff cover, is as true to tim e as ever, In the way of “ original m atter,” it contains on this occasion two very readable short articles, “ Hints from the Press-box,” by O. S. Crane, and “ A Few W ords on F ieldin g” by G. A. Lohmann— the former paper containing some decidedly “ b roa d ” hints to the man­ agement of those cricket grounds which do not afford adequate accomm odation to the Press. Having already given photographs of famous professional batsmen, the editor has inserted by way of frontispiece the portraits of five noted amateur bats, in Messrs. W . W . Read, Stoddart, Stanley Scott, Hewett, and Palairet. Needless to add, the editing of “ W isden,” in the able hands of S. H. Pardon, has been as ably performed as in previous years.
