284 CRICKET A W JEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. J uly 18, 1895. SOMERSET v. LANCASHIRE. A t Tau nton on M onday Som ersetshire assisted in the establishm ent o f several records, in clu d in g the h ighest in d iv id u a l and the high est collective score m ade by Lan cashire, w ho were b a ttin g a ll day, and pu t together 555 fo r three w ickets ; the record a t one tim e being 504 fo r 1. T h e p rin cip a l perform ers in th is great to tal were A . C. M a clare n and P a u l, b u t A lb e rt W a rd , w ith the first-nam ed, should be credited w ith a great share o f th e praise due, since they, in ju s t u n der tw o hours, h it up 141, and com ­ pletely m astered the bow ling. W a rd m ade 64 by very fine cricket, b u t h is d isp la y is overshadow'ed by M aclaren and P a u l, each o f w hom fa r surpassed th eir previous best. P a u l was b a ttin g three hours an d teD m inutes, and h is 177 in clud ed a s ix an d th irty 4’s ; he gave no chance d u rin g th is great perform ance. M a c­ laren ’s is the highest score on record. H e was battin g a ll day on M on day, and fo r tw o an d a quarter h ours on Tuesday. H e m igh t, perhaps, have been caught when 262, b u t h is 424 w as a m agnificent score, and included one 6, sixty-tw o 4’s, eleven 3’s, thirty-seven 2’8, and sixty-th ree singles. T h is is, of course, by fa r the h igh est score in a first-class m atch, and re­ places as a record M r. W . G. G race’s 344, m ade at Canterbury on A u g u st 11,1876. M a clare n w as a t the w ickets in a ll fo r seven hours and fifty m inutes, and, had he received the support th a t m ig h t have been expected, Lan cash ire’s to ta l w o u ld pro bab ly have reached 1,000. A s it was, the in n in g s closed fo r 801, 2 runs less th an the to tal o f the Sm okers v. N on - Sm okers m atch a t E a st M elbourne G rou n d on M a rch 17, 1887, and 42 runs below the to ta l m ade b y the A u stra lia n s against O xfo rd and Cam bridge a t P o rts­ m outh in Ju ly , 1893. T he to ta l is 75 above N o tt’s record in a county m atch m ade early th is year, and the w ickets fe ll a t 141, 504, 530, 637, 732,738, 792, 792, 798, 801, M aclaren being seventh out a t 792. Som er­ setshire m ade a fa ir start, L . P a la ire t and G . Fo w ler m akin g 71 fo r the first w icket, b u t the rem ain ing nine w ickets o n ly ju s t doubled th a t score, a ll being out in tw o h ours and th irty-fiv e m inutes fo r 143. F o llo w in g on 658 behind, in th irty-fiv e m inutes Som ersetshire lost P a la ire t’s w icke t, and p u t together 58 runs before p la y ceased fo r the day. Y esterday M o ld and B rig g s bow led w ith great effect, b u t W oods and Fo w ler m ade a fine stand, the form er a t last reaching h is 1,000 ru n s th is season.
