Jtetotiton Gossip, The abstract and brief chronicle of the time.— Hamlet. F or the moment the fashion of scoring a separate hundred in each innings has given place to that of making a duck’s egg in one innings and a hundred or so in the other. At the end of last week, Holland made 0 and 129 for Surrey v. Essex. Mr. C. B. Fry, 0 and 219 not out, for Sussex v.OxfordUniversity,and Carpenter 72 and 0, for Essex v. Surrey. I t is quite remarkable that no fewer than three men should have got so near their second hundred in matches at the end of last week. Mr. Palairetmade 182 for Somerset v. Lancashire. Mr. F. L. Fane 195 for M.C.C. v. Cambridge, and Mr. Knox, 198 for Oxford v. Sussex. There are not very many men who have scored between 190 and 200 in first-class matches. T h e irregular bowlers are getting more chances nowadays than ever of dis­ tinguishing themselves, and are proving quite worthy of the honour of being trusted with the ball. Mr. Goldie was very useful to Sussex against Oxford; Mr. McGahey did well in the first innings of Surrey for Essex ; while Humphreys proved useful to Kent. Brown, W. G. Quaife, and many others have often of late shewn that a style which is not quite like that of the ordinary bowler is not without its advantages. And now Storer has had a fine time against London County T u n n i c l i f f e made four catches for Yorkshire in the first innings of Derby­ shire last week. A t i e match took place on June 24th at Aldershot between the 3rd Battalion of the Worcestershire Regiment and the Royal Artillery, each side scoring 161. There were four extras (byes), in the innings of the former, and a leg-bye in that of the Boyal Artillery. A m o n g well-known cricketers who have ecently made big scores in club matches are Captain E. G. Wynyard, 103 ; Mr. G. W. Beldam, 95 ; Mr. A . J. Turner, 133, not o u t; Mr. W. L. Murdoch, 73; Captain J. G. Greig, 84, Mr. G. J. Y. Weigall, 101, Mr. H. C. Stewart 138, Mr. K. J. Key 106, Sir T. C. O’Brien 130. I t is intended to attempt to revive a theatrical cricket club on the lines of the old Thespian C.C., and it is understood that Mr. C. A. Smith, the old Sussex and Cambridge cricketer and well-known actor is taking an active part in the preliminary work. The honorary secre­ tary is Mr. H. Nye-Chart. T h e team to represent Oxford to-day (Thursday) at Lord’s is as follows:— O x f o r d . *F. P. Knox (Dulwich and Corpus) (capt.), *C. H. B. Marsham (Eaton and Christ Church), *R. E. More (Westminster and Christ Church), *J. W .F. Crawfurd (Merchant Taylors and St.John’ s) E. W . Dillon (Rugby and University), F. H. Hollins (Eton and Magdalen), H. J. W yld (Barrow and Magdalen), J. W . F. Kelly (Stnnyhurst and Lincoln), R. A . 'Williams (Winchester and University), and W . Findlay (Eton and Oriel) J. S. Munn (Newton Abbot and Hertford). •Signifies an Old Blue. Mb. L. Y . H a r p e r and Mr. P. H . Johnson received their blues for Cam­ bridge on Friday, and the team was then complete with the exception of one place, This has since been filled up by the inclusion of Mr. J. Daniell, who played in 1898, 1899 and 1900 with great 8 ucc 088 The team will therefore be as follows :— *3. H. Day (Malvern and Queen’s) (capt.), *E. R. Wilson (Rugby and Trinity), •R. N. R. Blaker (Westminster and Jesus), *E. M. Dowson (Harrow and Trinity), •A. E. Hind (Uppingham and Trinity Hall), .. H. C. Fargus (Haileybury and Pembroke), •A W . P. Robertson (Harrow and Trinity Hall), P. R. Johnson (Eton and Trinity), H. K . Longman (Eton and Trinity), L. V . Harper (Rossall and Christ’s), and •J. Daniell (Clifton and Emmanuel). * Signifies an old Blue. T h e match between Eton and Win­ chester this year ended in the greatest excitement for after Winchester had led by 27 on the first innings Eton required 36 to win with only two wickets in hand. In any match this would have been a trying time for the two ninth wicket men, and in a school match of such importance they required a great deal of nerve. But steadily and surely they knocked off the runs, and Eton won without further loss. The two heroes were R. G. Ellis, not out 12, and J. Egerton-Warburton, not out 16. M r . J . E. R a p h a e l , the captain of Merchant Taylors School, brought his total for the season up to 1,075 on Satur­ day. In 1897 Mr. V. F. S. Crawford made 1,340 runs for Whitgift School, but Raphael has still to play in several matches. He had to be contented with a couple for Merchant Taylors School v. Surrey Club and Ground at Bellingham last Tuesday.
