J dly 25, 1895. CRICKET: A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. 299 YORKSHIRE y. SOMERSETSHIRE. A t Headingley, on Monday, the wicket was sticky enough to suit the most exacting bowler, and in the day’s play 21 wickets fell for 176 runs; Peel for York­ shire, and Captain Hedley for Somersetshire having remarkable analyses. The game was most exciting in its incidents. Each side was strong, but Somerset­ shire missed L. C. H. Palairet, and Yorkshire Hunter. Winning the toss, Yorkshire, but for Tunnicliffe’s fine forcing innings of 32, would, indeed, have fared badly. The Pudsey giant’s 32 was the highest score o f the day, and in Yorkshire’s first innings Mr. F. S. Jackson was the only other bats­ man to score double figures. In fifty-five minutes after the luncheon interval, seven wickets went down for 30 runs; Captain Hedley’s nine overs and four balls—five maidens—for 9 runs and seven wickets being the cause of the failure. On Somersetshire going in, Woods and R. Palairet failed, but Hill and Fowler took the score to 46, when the third wicket fell. Then, as in the case of Yorkshire, came a collapse, Peel being almost unplayable; Wainwright, curiously enough, being unsuccessful on a wicket which should have exactly suited him. Peel’s last few overs compare very curiously with Hedley’s— eight overs, three balls, one maiden, 9 runs, and seven wickets. The last seven wickets added but 43, and Yorkshire were 4 runs ahead on the first innings. Going to the wickets a second time, Tunnicliffe was well caught at 11, but Mitchell and Denton played out time, and took the score to 34. Resuming next day, Denton played a very fine innings and was out seventh at 128 for 60, made in one hundred minutes. Messrs. Jackson and Mitchell assisted him chiefly, but Moor­ house was thrice missed in the course of his not out 15. Denton’s innings so far as could be seen was without the least chance, and the position of his county was entirely due to him. Captain Hedley again did a fine performance ; going on a second time at 101, he sent down 58 balls for 24 runs and six wickets. In the match he had 14 wickets for 70 runs. Somersetshire had 168 runs to win, but with Peel to meet on a very tricky wicket they never had the least likelihood of success. Wainwright again failed to get wickets, but Jackson going on at 41 actually dis­ missed four batsmen for 13. Peel as in the first innings bowled throughout, and in the whole match took 15 wickets for 50 runs, a performance of the highest merit, even allowing for the state of the wicket. The batting of Somerset needs little remark, Hill and Fowler who alone reached double figures forced the game a little, but no stand was made, and Yorkshire won in the end very easily by 103 runs.

One of the most dismal batting failures which have marked the advent of unsettled weather was that of the Kent eleven at Catford on Monday. Surrey had left out Lockwood and Smith in favour of N. 1. Druce and Lohmann, the latter quite justifying his selection by his play. W ith the exception of Lasby no Kentish batsmen reached double figures, and the only semblance of a stand was that between the player named and Alec Heame, who put on 17 for the second wicket. Easby was at the wickets fifty min­ utes, and he was the first of four men dismissed from following balls, the sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth wickets falling at 42. The wicket had of course much to do with this wretched display, the sky being bright and the ground soaked by the.previous rains. Surrey began much better, Abel and M. Read making 59 without loss before rain came on very heavily at a quarter-past three, and rendered the ground quite unfit for further play for the day. On Tuesday Easby replaced Le Fleming at the wickets, and was a con­ siderable improvement, almost at once stumping Abel. Hayward and Holland failed, and Mr. >N. F. Druce made but 7 on his first appearance for Surrey. Lohmann hit very hard, and his 20 on the tricky wicket was a capital display. Maurice Read left at 102, of which he had made just half in ninety minutes, and in his 51 were nine 4’s. Brockwell played in good form, but nine wickets were down for 163. Richardson then hit out and made 23 of 28 for the last wicket in a quarter of an hour. Kent were 148 behind, but Mr. J. R. Mason and A . Heame, for the fourth time within a month, made over ICO for the first wicket, which fell at 118, after one hundred minutes play. Mason’s 46 was a good display, but Hearne’s 71 was a brilliant innings, and on a bowler s wicket a wonderfully fine show; he was batting ten minutes longer than Mason. Before the dismissal of these men Kent looked like making a tight, but after they left there came such a downfall, that whereas no wicket had fallen with 118 up, all the side were cut for 157. Richardson and Lohmann, as on the previous day, could not be resisted, and no one of the nine last batsmen made double figures. Surrey needed but 10 to win, and Brockwell and Read made these in eight minutes, thus securing a victory by ten wickets. Lohmann’s re-appearance was quite successful, he obtaining in all nine wickets for 90, but Richardson had ten for 76. Score and analysis:— First Innings. Mr. J. R.
