326 CRICKET : A WEEKLY RECORD OF THE GAME. A ug . 7, 19 02. and w hen stumps were drawn L ord Hawke and H aigh had put on 121 runs during an unfinished partnership. There is not m uch doubt that if the Surrey fielding had I een as good as it ought to have been, Yorkshire w ould all have been out for a m oderate score som e tim e before play ended, but the catching was at fault. A t the beginning o f the m atch it looked as if Yorkshire w ould .m ake a small score, for Lockw ood had taken a couple o f wickets w hen the total was only seventeen, his bow ling getting up in an awkward way. B ut Brown a n d T . L . Taylor settled dow n and put on 92 runs, and for the rest of the day the batsmen had the best of matters. Taylor played a m ost attractive gam e, m aking his runs so m uch m ore quickly than usual that he was only at the w ickets for an hour for his 64. M eanwhile Brown was keeping his end up w ith the greatest steadiness, but he was out the second ball after lunch for a m ost useful 42. F. S. Jackson was in no great hurry to score, but D enton hit out boldly, m aking som e very fine drives and cuts. Still half the wick ets were down fo r 184, w hile the sixth w icket went at 214, so that there was nothing in the score so far to cause alaim to Surrey m en. B ut the fielding becam e slack, and Jackson was twice missed. H e was, however, dis­ m issed at 266 after batting for iw o hours and a half, and then the stand of the day *a s m ade by L ord H aw ke and H aigh. The form er gave a difficult chance, and then proceeded to hit the bow ling all over the fie ld ; he gave one or tw o m ore chances, and was not out 88 when stum ps m ere drawn, and H aigh not out 48. On the next m orning Lord B aw ke continued to play delightful cricket, despite a dam aged thum b, and it was not until the partnership had produced 165 runs that H aigh w as disposed o f, having batted for tw o hours and a halt for his 62. W hen 20 m ore runs had been m ade, L ord B aw ke was out for a splendid innings of 126, w hich included tw enty- one 4’s ; his runs were m ade in a little less than two hours, and were o f inestim able service to his side. W hen the innings cam e to an end, Surrey had nothing to play for but a draw, and they easily succeeded in their object. A t the end o f the day their total was 268 for six wickets, so that they were in a better position than Yorkshire had been on the previous afternoon, fo r Yorkshire had lost seven w ickets for 266. The chief feature o f the innings was the patient batting o f Hayward, w ho, having a definite object in view , nam ely, to bring about a draw n gam e, was content to keep up his w ick et; he was batting for about four hours for hid 95. On the next m orning Craw ford and Leveson-Gower, w ho were not out over­ night, soon settled the question of a follow -on, and were not separated until their partnership had pro­ duced 99 runs. Leveson-G ow er w a8 ninth out, having played a m ost excellent innings of 70. It was ten m inutes past one w hen Yorkshire went in again, and as the w icket was in perfect order they did not seethe use in declaring. A ccordingly they kept in for the rem ainder o f the day, scoring S63 runs for the loss of only three wickets. Every m an w ho went in m ade a good score, and when the m atch ended, Jackson and Taylor had put on 155 runs dur.ng an unfinished partnership o f an hour and a quarter. On paper the Yorkshirem en had an im m ensi advantage, being 474 runs on w ith sevtn w ickets in hand, but if the Surrey m en had excited themselves w hen they saw how things were going, they w ould have I een alm ost m ore than hum an.

They had no tail, and nine o f the side m ade double figu n s. The test innings was played by E . B. M axw ell, w ho made 74 b y very attractive cricket, but T . A . Grose, who went in ninth, gave the m ost brilliant display. E x­ cept fo r a very fine innings o f 83 by Bevington, and a good 31 by Powell, the H aileybury batting was dis­ appointing. Each side had com pleted an innings at the end o f the day, Cheltenham having a lead o f 126. In the Cheltenham second innings P . D ’A . Banks played very sound cricket for 113, and as several other m en did w ell, Haileybury had a very big task before them when they w ent in for the fourth innings o f the m atch. A gain Bevington did exceedingly well, but the bow ling o f Clayton was too much fo r m ost o f the rest o f the team, and Cheltenham won very easily. C heltenham . First innings. Second innings. M .

ESSEX. Played at Leyton on July 31, August 1and 2. Drawn. A fter their fine display against the Australians the Essex men were bound to have a feeling o f confldenc e in themselves w hich w ould m ake them hard to beat. T hey pave a rem arkably good account o f themselves against M iddlesex on the first day, and against a total of 189 they had run up 113 for the loss of tw o w ickets when stum ps were drawn. Several good innings were played during the day, but none of them over fifty. Beldam and J. Douglas put on 81 for the M iddlesex second wicket, the latter playing very taking cricket. Beldam was going strong at lunch tim e, when t ie total was 106 for tw o wickets, but he was dismissed soon afterwards for a m ost useful 49 m ade in tw o hours and ten m inutes. Som e very fast bow ling by Buckenham brought about the dow nfall o f R . N . D ouglas, Beldam , 0. M . W ells and R . W . N icholls after lunch, only thirty runs being hit off him . On Friday K ortright and M ‘Gahey were both in great form . D uring the first half-hour o f their partnership 70 runs were m ade, w hile the next hour produced 49, and before they were separated they had put on 134 runs in an hour and a quarter. M 'G ahey was out fifth for a brilliant innings o f 126, w hich had taken him three hours to com pile. W hen he had m ade 53 he was apparently caught in the slips by T ro tt; tu t the um pire could not see, while the other um pire could not give a decision for the same reason. The latter part of the innings was chiefly remarkable for the fine bow ling o f C. M . W ells, who, going on for the third tim e when t ie total was 254, bowled lu overs for 37 runs and five wickets. Sewell and M ead m ade things lively for the last wicket. M iddlesex, who had to face a balance o f 138, lost W arner for a duck’s egg, but Beldam and J. Douglas then knocked off 68 o f the runs. Douglas and his brother added 47 more, D ouglas and llobert- son 67, and then D ouglas and W ells played out tim e the form er being n ot out 112 and the latter not out 40. M iddlesex were now leading by 107 with si*
