O w i n g to an accident the follow ing notes on two of the matches played by the Artists C.C. did not reach us until just too late for publication in our last issue. “ Mr. Dermod O’Brien and Mr. G. H . Swinstead showed consistent form for the Artists in their two matches. Swinstead made 84 and took six wickets on Saturday v. Moorhall, and O ’Brien made 57 with tw o wickets. On Whit Monday Swinstead made 86 and O’Brien 69. When the Artists played Allahak- barrie (J. M. Barrie’s X I .) on Monday, the 20th, Dr. A. Conan D oyle’s perform­ ance with bat and ball was remarkable. H e made 94 runs and took eight of the Artists’ wickets. H e and J. M . Barrie were in together for the last wicket, but in hitting out for his 100 D oyle fell, being bowled b y O ’Brien, who took eight wickets for the Artists. J. M . Barrie was not out 6. It was discovered after­ wards that he also was ‘ after ’ his century.” ------- I t is not often that a fast bowler hits the wicket without removing the bails. Richardson did this on Monday at the Oval in bow ling to Lewis at the com ­ mencement of Somersetshire’s first innings. He hit the off-stump hard, but to no purpose, as the wicket remained intact. ------- J. E. R a p h a e l , the captain of the Merchant Taylors’ School X I ., gathered another 100—his third of the season— at Cambridge on Saturday last. The match was between Merchant Taylors’ School and Leys School, and Raphael’s contribution was 146. When did Sidney Pardon ! When he saw A. G. Steel. A n amusing cartoon appeared in the Cricket Star last Saturday. It was entitled, “ Next, please,” and represented Surrey and Lancashire as lyin g flattened out on a cricket ground b y a heavy roller pulled b y Notts and Yorkshire, the latter doing decidedly the greater part of the work. A m o n g some notes in the Daily Express on Mr. Jessop’s remarkable innings of 124 in an hour and a quarter, for Gloucestershire v. Middlesex, on Satur­ day, are the follow ing :— Indeed, during the first ten minutes he only made two runs; during the third ten minutes and during the fifth ten minutes 6. Deducting, therefore, half-an-hour from his total time, and 18 runs from his total score, he actually made 106 in forty-five minutes—a rate he beat at Bradford by scoring 100 in forty minutes. On that occasion, however, he was batting on the Harrogate ground, where the boundaries are much shorter than at Lord’s. At one period of his innings, however, duriug which he got more of the bowling
