Lancashire won by 9 wickets. Thanks chiefly to the batting of three men Lanca­ shire ran up a total of 419 on the first day. Tyldes- ley’s innings of 196 was the most noticeable feature of the first day’s plav. but it was hardly one of his best efforts, although, as always, he made a great many beautiful strokes. He was batting for three hours and a quarter, and his hits included thirty 4’s. Maclaren played a very steady game, but it was per­ haps as well for Worcestershire that he was not allowed to remain much longer than he did, for he was begiming to get well into his stride. The third innings of note was the 60 fy Hallows, but thin again was not one of his be»*t When Worcestershire went in on Tuesday W. B. Burns, who played such a fine innings fcgainnt Oxford University last week, was unable to bat on account of an injury to his hand received on the previous day. The V*orcestershire men gave a mot-t disappointing display, although H. K. Foster played a good innii gs, and the result was that they had to follow on with a balance against them of i00 runs. In the follow-on Worcestershire made 105 for two wickets before htumps were drawn, Id. K. Foster pla>ing a fine innings. The light became very bad tefore the end of the day and twice interrupted play, Lain then fell and there was no cricket after abiut half-past five. Whtn half the wickets were down yesterday Worcestershire still required 75 runs to save the innings defeat, but Simpson-Hayward proved such an efficient partner to Arnold that Lancashire had to go in again.

MIDDLESEX. Played at Lord’s on July 11, 12 and 13. Drawn. The combination of a perfect wicket and moderate bowling on a day of great heat gave Esfcex an oppor­ tunity <»f running up the large score of 445 for seven wickets on Monday. There was nothing at the beginning of the game to suggest the probability that many runs would be made, for the first three wickets fell for 69. But Perrin and Gillingham then came together, and, long before they parted, the bowiing had become indifferent, and the fielding hardly up to Middlesex form. It would be difficult to imagine more attractive batting than was played by these two men, who both have a cjmmanding style, and a way of miking the most powerful strokes without any apparent exertion. They were together for two hours and a half, during which the total was increased by *227runs. Perriu was l.b.w. almost immediately after the tea interval, but Gillingham went on in triumph to the end of th 9 day, when he was not out 189, after being at the wickets for about three hours and a quarter. Sewell played a lively game, and during his partnership with Gillingham 125 runs were put on in an hour and ttn minutes. The last three Essex wickets only increased the total by a few runs, but there was time for Gillingham to reach the second hundred. He was out tenth for a splendid innings of 201 , which lasted for about four hours and three- quarters, and included twenty-seven 4’s. Owing to a few mistakes in the field Middlesex wtre able to score 105for two wickets before lunch, but afterwards there was a breakdown in the batting. Rawlin played his old and steady game, and his most careful innings ( f 63 lasted for two hours. Ai.othtr slow and cartful innings was that of C. P. Foley, who was at the wickets for an hour and ten minutes for his 14. As Middlebex were 242 runs behind they were made to follow on. Warner went in first with btogdon, the Old Hanovian, and so finely did the two men bat that they put up 134 runs before the day’s play ended, Warner being not out 60 and Stog- dou not out I'S. Thus Middlesex, with all their wickets in hand, were still 108 runs behind. Warner was dismissed yesterday with the total at 161 and Stogdon followed him at 186. Both men playeu attractive cricket, Stogdon taking two hours and a quarter to make his 96. Bosanquet, Rawlin, E. A. Beldam and Trott all did so well that eventually Middlesex were able to declare, leaving Essex to make 192 runs in two hours. Essex went for a draw, and easily accomplished their obj ct. E ssex .
