Played at Lord’s on August 27, 28 and 29. Middlesex won by an innings and 3 runs. It was a miserable day on Monday at Lord’s ; a steady rain in the morning was the cause that the match was not begun until the afternoon, and the dismal surroundings seemed to take all the life out of the players—batsmen included There was nothing spirited about the game until Mr. Mason came in. for although Kent was always doing pretty well, the play was most uninteresting on the whole. A t the end of the day stumps were drawn early owing to the bsd light. Kent had then made 191 for four wickets, Mr. Mason being not out 64 and Mr. Dillon —a most useful recruit—20. On Tuesday, Mr. Mason was at once dismissed, but Mr. Dillon snd Mr. Blaker played good cricket. The total came to 247. Against this Middlesex put on 57 before lunch without losing a wicket. There was afterwards a succession of good score*, and when stumps were drawn the total was 282 for seven wickets. Yesterday the tail played remarkable cricket, Mr Nicholls hitting vigorously, while even Rawlin, who is not in the habit of scoring very quickly, put on 60 in eightjr-flve minutes. Kent had to make 191 to save the innings defeat, but began badly. Alec Hearne and Mr. Aiason, however, did so well that they put on a hundred in a hundred minutes, and until they were parted there did not seem much chance that the match would be played out. But once the charm was broken the wickets fell with rapidity, and even the innings defeat was not staved off. K bnt . First innings.

Played on the United Service Ground at Portsmouth on August 27, 28 and 29. Drawn. There was no play in this match on Monday owing to rain. On Tuesday, Hampshire won the toss, and began fairly well, Barton being in fine form. Mr Bill, Mr. Sprot and M r. English all playfd good cricket, and the total was fairly large for a dead wicket. A tth eclo se o f the day Sussex had scored 194 for the loss of 4 wicketp, but these included Mr. Frys and Ranjitsinhj’s ; both batsmen had played brilliant cricket. Yesterday, the innings came to an end pretty soon, and then Hampshire did so well that thev were able to declare. Webb and Mr. Hill were chiefly responsible for this happy state of affairs. Sussex had no time to make the runs. They lost Mr. Fry very quickly, but Ranjitsinhji and Latham played fine,cricket. H a m p s h ir e . First innings. C.

Played at Taunton on August 27, 28 and 29. Somerset won by 26 runs. So often have the Somerset men given Surrey a surprise in this match, that nowadays no one would venture to prophesy as to the result. It was not a very promising beginning which Somerset made when they won the toss? but happily for them, Mr. Palairet kept up his wicket, and played a splendid game. Despite his efforts, however, four wickets were down for 79, of which he had made £0. A t last, when he was joined by Gill, the much-wished-for stand was made, and before the two batsmen were separated the total had been raised to 135, the partner­ ship having produced 56 in less than an hour. Mr. Palairet was the first to g o ; he had been playing the very best of cricket f «r two hours and ten minutes. Afterwards, Mr. Dunlop, Air. Fowler and Tyler made useful scores, and Burrey had to go in against 221, a total which was quite large enough for the wicket. A tine start was made by the visitors, Mr. Crawford promptly hitting two 4’s and a 6. He was then promptly bowled, and Abel, although he seemed in good form, did not last long. W hen stumps were drawn the total was only 78 for 4 wickets, Hayward being not out 14, and Holland not out 9. In the course of the afternoon Tyler was twice no-balled for throwing by Phillips, standing at square leg. The rest of the innings on Tuesday was chiefly remarkable for the splendid cncket played by Hayward, who was within four runs of his hundred when he was disposed of Tbanks chefly to him, the score at lunch time was 202 for seven wickets, so that there was nothing in the match. Richardson's bat­ ting was the surprise of the day; he scored 51 in forty minutes, Lees also played fine cricket. Against a balance of 60 runs Somerset began badly by losing Mr. Palairet, Kobson, and Lewis for 29 runs. Then, however, Mr. Woods and Mr. Daniel hit up 104 in eighty minutes, and at the end of the day the total was 168 for four wickets—103 runs on. Mr. Woods was then not out 67. Yesterday Mr. Woods played a wonderful game. When his scoie was 88 he hit three successive fours to complete his hundred, and was not disposed of uutil he had made 121 in a little less than tnree hours, tturrey had to make 233, with all the time after lunch before them. Things did not go well with them. Abel and Hayes were out at ttO, Hayward at 65, and Mr. Crawford at 73. It required a man line Mr. Woods to save the situation but such a mau was not for.hcoming. Mr. Jephson, however, played a great game, and fuuad in Holland a most us ful partner. But bfier the steadiest of play Mr. J- phson was magnificently caught in the country with han outstrei ched near the ground by Mr. DunUp, aud Surrey’s chief hope was gone. A t 128 Lees was out, and six wicketi were down. Ihe game seemed over, but (Jlode and Kicbardson played as desperate men can sometimes play, and very nearly pulled the mitch out of the fire. If Air. Crawford or Jdayes had come off, all might have gone well, but it often wants more thau two men who can hit in a team to win a mat h of this kind, and Lockwood was not playing. S omerset .
