GLOUCESTERSHIRE. After a very even game, at least in the earlier stage, Gloucester won this match, begun on Mon­ day, at Lord’s, yesterday afternoon by 111 runs. Play had not proceeded far beyond the luncheon hour on Menday, when heavy rain interfered, pre­ venting as it proved a resumption till ihe follow­ ing morning.MeanwhileGloucestershire had scored 181 for the loss of half their wickets. W. G. and Ferris made 93 of this sum before the latter was caught at the wicket, and W. G. was Btill in when the stumps were drawn with 82 to his credit. On Tuesday morning the wicket was more in favour of the bowlers, and Captain Luard, who had made 35 of tbe last 52 overnight, only added four before he was bowled. W.G. was again unlucky enough tomisa his hundred, being bowled by Hearne when four runs short of three figures. Altogether he was batting four hours, and except for orie chance when he had made fifty-seven his play was up to his best form. Middlesex went in early on Tuesday afternoon against a total of 222, and thanks to the brilliant batting of Mr. Stoddart at the st^rt, and some very useful cricket by Bearne at the finish, got within twenty of this number. Mr. Stoddart was unluckily run out after one of the very best innings he has overplayed. The wicket was just beginning to dry, but he hit all the bowlers with the greatest freedom, and indeed his 74, which only included one chance, whoo he had got twelve, were made in a few minutes over the hour. Hearne and Phillips put on 39 for the last wicket, and of these the former scored 37 by vigorous cricket. In Gloucestershire’s second innings W. G. was out for eight, but Messrs. Ferris and Radcliffe played out time, when the total was 86 for one wicket. Mr. Ferris only added two yester­ day before he was bowled, and his partner, who had meanwhile put on 17, was caught three runs later for a hitting score of 53. For a time after Mr. Radcliffe’s departure things went ladlyw ith the in-side, and Mr. Kitcat saw Paint r, Mr. E. M. Grace, Captain Luard, and Atfield all go in quick succession. Roberts, however, lent him useful assistance, and by slow cricket 36 were added in just under an hour before luncheon, when the Bcore showed 191 for seven wickets. After the resumption the end soon came, Mr. Kitcat, who had played excellent cricket for his 56, being last out with the total at 214. Lefo with 235 to win, Middlesex started badly, losing intbree hours, six of the best wickets for only 47runs. Excepting Mr. Henery, who forced the game w.th his usual vigour, no one, in fact, made any stay, and when the last wicket fell Middlesex were iu a minority of 115 runs. Mr.*Henery, who carried out his bat, made 63 a fine display of free credit. G loucestershire . rst Innings. Mr.W. G* Grace b Heame ! Mr. J. J.

In order to give a trial to an extra man of the University, it was agreed to play twelve a-side in this match, begun at Oxford on Monday. Somer­ setshire, except for the want of Captain HedJey and Mr. Challen, was as well represented as it well could have been. Messrs. Palairet and Hill would have played for the University in the ordinary way. As it happened, neither the Captain nor Mr. Hill were able to help the University, and in their absence the team were not seen to great advantage. Somersetshire, Who won the toss, were at the wickets altogether four hours and ten minutes for a total of 317. Though nine of the twelve got double figures, the bulk of the scoring was done by [two batsmen, Messrs. Hewett and Fowler. The latter had the Oxford bowliDg per­ haps at its test, and his 44 was void of a mistake. Mr Hewett, who usually goes in first, reserved him­ self this time ti'l fourth wicket down. He made 94 in an hour and a half, and his hitting all round the wicket was marked by the usual freedom and resolution. Oxford, who, in the last hour on Monday night, had lost four of their best bats­ men for 44, only made a moderate show against the bowling of Tyler, Nichols, and Woods on the following morning, and were out in a little less than an hour and a half for an addition of 103 runs. In the follow on, too, excepting Leveson • Gower, who a second time played admirab/e cricket, the early batsmen again failed, and when the seventh wicket fell, the total was only 86. Clayton, the hero of the freshmen’s match, was the first to offer any real resistance to the Somer­ setshire bowlers, and thanks to his steady cricket, helped by that of Bathurst, and the free hitting of Wood, the innings after all reached a respectable total of 185. Wood’s cricket was particularly vigorous, indeed, he was in less than threequarters of an hour for his fifty. In making the six runs wanted to »in, Newton was caught, so th^t Somersetshire won with ten wickets to spare. T.vler’s s ow bowlingwas perhaps the best feature of the match, t e took eleven Oxford wickets at a cost of 123 ruts, and this on a pitch :which did not favour the bowler. S om erset . First Innings.
