THURSDAY, JULY 11th, 1901. The abstract and brief chronicle of the time.— Hamlet. F ew things have been more remarkable this year than the bowling of Hirst and Rhodes against Leicestershire on a wicket which had just seen Yorkshire pile up 562 runs. Hirst’s analysis in the first innings of Leicestershire was : 14'3 overs, 5 maidens, 21 runs, 7 wickets; while Rhodes in the second innings had the following figures : 31 overs, 10 maidens. 46 runs, 6 wickets. Contrast this with Woodcock’s analysis in the same match, viz., 45 overs, 6 maidens, 169 runs, 0 wickets. O n Saturday last Lockwood and Mr. C. H. B. Marsham both scored exactly a hundred runs not out, both making most of their runs when other men were failing, and both succeeding in getting their side well out of its difficulties. M e . G . H. G a r n e t t was within measurable distance last week of scoring two separate hundreds for Lancashire against Sussex. In the first innings he made the highest score but one of his career, viz., 110 and in the second innings he got as far as 89. Ranjitsinhji was also not so very far from accomplishing the feat, for he made 69 and 170 not out, his second innings being one of his very best, and all the more remarkable for having been played at atime when his side wanted runs pretty badly. C. J. POSTUMA, who has already made his mark on Metropolitan grounds, is to captain the team coming over here at the end of the month to represent the Gentle­ men of Holland. Now that the pro­ gramme is complete it will be of use to repeat the engagements the Dutch cricketers have to fulfil:— AUGUST. 5, 6.—Lord’s, v. Marylebone Club. 7, 8.—Bath, v. Marylebone Club. 9,10.—Oval, v. Gentlemen of Surrey. 12,13.—Crystal Palace, v. London County C.C. 14, 15.—Worcester, v. Gentlemen of Worcestershire. T h e other members of the Dutch team will be A. A. Kool, C. Feith, H. Beu- kema, A. Bourlier, K. van Booven, A. Broese van Groenon, J. W. G. Coops, E. Schroder, F. Rincker, H. Hisgen and H. S. Isbriicher, manager. The committee of the Marylebone C.C. have kindly granted the use of Lord’s on August 2 and 3 for practice. F o r the Free Foresters against School of Gunnery at Shoeburyness on June 28 and 29, Lieut. J. E. Bray scored 219 out of a total of 445 for 5 wickets. The score of the Free Foresters was as follows : — F r e e F o r e s te s s . G. F. Vernon,c Blount, b W arren...................20 W . E.
