A t the beginning of this match Mr. De Trafford played one of those innings which are often d-scribed as wild and reckless by throe who do not understand the nioetir s of the game of cricket, but by connoisseurs as well calculated to completely up-et the bowling. He at once began to hit very hard and often, and in about a quarter cf an hour bad got the Surrey bowl­ ing in a knot. He continued to hit, and, as generally happens, the field became a}little demoralised, and when a chance of dispo ing of the foe came to them did not take advantage of it. He is credited with at least four chances, but at least two of them were so diffi ult that it would have 1een extraordir ary if they had been taken, while the first one, when he made 22, was next to impossible; in fart, not a chance at all. As a result of Mr. De TrafFora’s brilliant crick* t the Leicestershire men were greatly Mn ouraged, and kept Surrey in tbe field for the rest of the day. thus h tving a very good chance of making a draw, whijh was as mucn as they could ever h a'e hoped for. Surrey gave a splendid exhibition of batting, A el being in great form, while Lockwood surpassed himself, and Hayes, who has hardly done himself justice of late, played a very fine innings. When their innings was declared clos-d at 5^2, Surrey had a lead cf 169, and there was just a chance that Leicestershire might collapse in their second innings, as they/have often done before For a tim •it looked as if Surrey would htve almost a walk over, for Lockwood, when the total was tight, had disposed of Mr. De T r’ fford, Whitehead, and Coe for three runs. This was the dangerous moment of the match for Leicestershire. But Knight and Mr. W ood steadily wore down the fowling, and by the time that they were separated they had gone far towards making a draw almost certain. King and Geeson quite settled the matter, y nd when the time came for Surrey to go in again they had to make 112 runs, with on y a quarter of an hour before them. L eicestersh ire . First innings. C.

T W E N T Y YEARS OF KENT CRICKET.—Full scores of 331 Matches, and also Averages. Price Is., postage 3d.— M ar sh a ll , Benenden, Cranbrook. YORKSHIRE v. NOTTS. Played at Scarborough on July 5, 6 and 7. Drawn. This match was quite spoiled by the rain, only about half-an-hour’s cricket being possible on Fri­ day. When the game was abandoned for the day the position was that Notts had scored 279 and Yorkshire 114 for fonr wickets, so that it was pretty obvious that the game must be drawn unless something quite out of the common happened on Saturday. As things turned out the unexpected nearly happened, and Notts had to struggle hard to aveit defeat. This result was chi <ly due to the splendid batting of Birst. who in three hours and twenty-five minutes scored a faultless innings of 155 for Yorkshire, who came out with a lead of 32. Notts went in at half­ past three and in a very short time lost four wickets for 22. The collapse was stayed by W . Gunn and Mr. A. O. Jones, who for once played a stiictly defensive game, and although the sixth wicket fell at 57 and there was still a chance of defeat, Mason kept up his wicket in partnership with Gunn until the game was saved at about half-past five. Stumps were then drawn. Mr. Goodacre’s first innings for Notts was one of the features of the match. N o tts . First innings. A .
