THE HASTINGS AND ST. LEONARDS WEEK . N O R TH v. SOUTH. The management of the Hastings and St. Leonards W eek have generally been favoured in respect of the weather for the very en­ joyable function they so successfully inaugu­ rated some six or seven years ago. This year the rain did interpose, and with such effect on the second night and third m orning of the first fixture, begun on Thursday, that the game had to be prematurely abandoned without the delivery of a ball after Friday night. Still, on the whole, the Hastings folk had occasion to congratulate themselves on better fortune than attended a large number of the principal matches of this summer. As there was no colonial team to furnish a special attraction, the authorities wisely relied on two matches which have generally proved popular, North v. South and Gentlemen v. Players. There were this year exceptional difficulties in the way of getting repre­ sentative sides. The departure of Lord H awke’s Amateur team to America t'jok away one, at least, who had played an important part in the Week, Mr. De Trafford to wit. The near approach of the time for the embarkation of Mr. Stoddart’s team to Australia, too, caused the withdrawal of Mr. L . H . Gay for one. In addition, Messrs. F . S. Jackson and Ernest Smith, the two Yorkshire amateurs, were unable to play, and for some reason or other the services of Surrey’s fast bowler were not called into requisition. Still, considering all the difficul­ ties incidental to the collection o f really repre­ sentative team 3 at the close of a more than usually busy season, the Hastings manage­ ment had succeeded in getting together strong sides. The late arrival of some of the players prevented the comm encem ent of the opening fixture till nearly half-past twelve o’clock on Thursday morning. The wicket was in excellent condition, and Mr. Kemble, who captained the North, naturally gave his side the advantage of first innings. Two fast scorers in the persons of Mr. Mitchell and Sugg were deputed to open the batting. Lockw ood and Martin shared the Southern bowling, and the former was the first to take effect, getting rid of Mr. M itchell, who had comm enced wuth three hits to the boundary, well caught by the wicket keeper standing back. Gunn and Sugg played excellent cricket, till at last, with the score at G6, Gunn was stupidly run out through a piece of bad judgm ent, both batsmen being at the same end when the wioket was put down. A fter this Lcckw ood bowled for a time with great success, and getting rid of Brown, Ward, aud Tunnicliffe in quick succession, three more wickets were secured before the luncheon interval for an addition of 19 runs. Sugg, who was then not out 43, found on the resumption a useful partner in Peel. Sugg made the m ost of the runs till he was at last out, rather unluckily, the ball reboundirg off the wicket-keeper’s pads. Sugg’s 71 brought his aggregate for the season to over a thousand runs. He was batting a little over two hours, and though he ought to have been caught when he had made 30, his play was of a singularly free and attractive character. Peel aud Davidson put on 28 by steady cricket, aud later on W ainwright and Mr. Kemble also scored well. Tw o short intervals had meanwhile been necessitated by rain, so that, though the total was only 190, the innings did not close till past five o’clock. Lockw ood’s bowling was quite the best feature of the out cricket. He took six of the nine wickets which fell to the bowlers at a cost of 87 runs, a fine performance, considering the excellence of the pitch. W ith only five minutes left for play, Mr. W . G. Grace sent in Martin and Hearne, who had made three runs w ithout the loss of a wicket when stumps were drawn. On Friday the weather continued fine through­ out, and a full day’s cricket was thus provided for the large company. Martin and Hearne, who had only been put in overnight to save the chief batsmen, played extremely well, con ­ sidering that the morning’s dew made the bowliDg of Davidson and Feel rather difficult, at the outset. By capital oricket they added 56, and with 59 up for one wicket it certainly did not look as if the South would fall short of the opposite total. As it was, directly the first two batsmen were separated Davidson and Peel bowled with great success, so much so, indeed, that Abel, Mr. Hewett, Mr. Stoddart, and W .G. only made fifteen between them. A useful stand by Brockwell and Mr. W . W . Read saved the follow on, and with some use­ ful assistance from Mr. Murdoch, the total ultimately reached 152, or 38 behind. B y the time tl e North went in for their second innings, the wicket had got very m uch faster, and Lockw ood’s bowling was by no means so successful. Mr. Mitchell and W ard put on 33 for the first w icket, and Sugg, Gunn, and Brown were all seen to such advantage that by the end of the day the tele­ graph showed 109 as the outcome of an hour and three - quarters’ batting. As the North were then 147 on with six wickets in hand, with ordinarily favo arable weather there was every chance of a full and interestin ' day’s cricket on Saturday.The weather,though, for once proved unpropitious, and rain fell so heavily during Friday and the early m orn­ ing of Saturday that the w icket was quite ruined. In the absence, therefore, of any possibility of further play the game was given up. N o r t h First Innings. Mr. F. M itchell, c Wood, b Lockw ood 12 F.
