DERBYSH IRE v. YORKSH IRE. Played at Chesterfield on June 7, 8 and 9. Yorkshire won by 33 runs. For the sixth time in succession Derbyshire lost the toss. Fairfax Gill, of Wakefield, and C. A. Midgley, a Bradford amateur, aged 32, made their first appearance for Yorkshire, Myers and Rudston standing down. The visitors gave a surprising display, being dismissed by Bestwick and Warren b9fore lunch for 130, made in 115 minutes. Rothery and Denton were out for 24, but, although Rhodes and Wilkinson put on 57 for the third wicket in 40 minutes, six were down for 84. Rhodes made 43 out of 81 in an hour, whilst Wilkinson scored 45 not out out of 106 in 100 minutes. Each hit seven 4’s. Run- getting proved no easy matter upon Derbyshire going in, Hirst in particular proving very difficult to score off. When seven wickets had fallen for 76, it appeared as though the visitors would possess a useful lead on the first innings, but the last few batsmen played surprisingly well. Needham, after batting an hour and a-half without a mistake, carried out his bat for 52, made out of 93 obtained whilst in. He hit seven 4’s, the majority being capital off-drives. Warren helped him to put on 40 for the eighth wicket, and Bestwick, who scored only 8, 53 for the last in 40 minutes. The result was that the Derbyshire innings realised 169, made in 190 minutes, or 39 more than their opponents’ total. When each side had completed an innings stumps were drawn for the day. On Friday Rothery was out at 8, and Rhodes also was sent back ere the arrears had been wiped off. Affairs began to assume a serious aspect for the visitors when their fifth wicket went down at 73, but at that point Hirst and Grimshaw came together and, by watchful cricket, added 25 for the sixth wicket in 40 minutes. After the latter was disposed of, Midgley came in and played a really great game for liis side, adding 40 with Hirst for the seventh wicket, 70 for the eighth in an hour and a-quarter with Hawke, and 32 for the last with Hunter. He gave a faultless display, which lasted 160 minutes and contained seven 4;s. Hirst batted for an hour and three-quarters without a mistake for his 53, and hit four 4’s. During the innings Humphries made five catches at the wicket. Derbyshire, set 205 to win, lost four wickets for 72 in an hour and a quarter before stumps were drawn, Wright, who was lame, and Ollivierre putting up 34 together for the first wicket. On Saturday Cadman, with only 2 runs added, was out in Hirst’s first over. Ashcroft played extremely well, but did not receive very good support, although Needham helped him put on 52 for the sixth wicket in 70 minutes andWarren 27for the seventh. Ho batted two hours for his 48. Haigh obtained the lastfew wickets quickly, and Yorkshire eventually won a close game by 33 runs. Derbyshire deserve much praise for their capital fight. Had Lawton assisted the home side the result might well have been different. Score and analysis: — Y orksh ire . First innings. Second innings.

Middlesex won by 189 runs. Except that Payne was away, the University had practically their best side in the field, the eleven being much stronger than that which opposed W. G. Grace’s XI. earlier in the week. Warner, who drove well, and made his 53 in 105 minutes, helped Tarrant to score 41 for the first wicket in 35 minutes. Foley and MacGregor fell to successive balls from Napier, the sixth wicket falling at 142. So well, however, did the tail-end batsmen score, that the last four wickets added 174. Vogler and Palmer added 57 for the seventh wicket off eight overs, Murrell and Palmer 61 for the eighth in 35 minutes, and Murrell and Trott 41 for the ninth. Vogler, who w’as missed when 8, hit eight 4’s in his 52, for which he batted 70 minutes. The innings closed for 316, which included 21 extras, stumps being drawn when the last wicket fell. On Friday, Cambridge lost Young at 8, and, after the second wicket had fallen at 46. Page and Eyre added 73 together for the third in 55 minutes. Page was missed twice- at 0 and 22—and reached 50 in as many minutes, being in altogether 95 minutes for his 78, included in which were ten 4’s. After lunch there was a very pronounced collapse, the last six wickets going down for 50, and the innings closing for 232, er 84 behind. Mignon, it will be seen, took five wickets for 7 runs apiece. When Middlesex went in the second time, Warner again played well, and had the distinction of being the highest scorer in each innings for his side. He reached 50 in 55 minutes, and, in all, scored 66 out of 96 in an hour-and-arhalf, hitting eight 4’s. Tarrant, although he made only 7, helped to put up 33 for the first wicket. Vogler and Foley afterwards added 51 in partnership, but eight wickets were down for 167. Foley and Trott then came together, and added 30 without a separation being effected, the County, when play ceased, being 281 ahead with two wickets in hand. On the following morning the innings closed for an additional 32, Cambridge being set 314 to win. At no time did the home side appear likely to obtain the runs, three wickets being down for 47 and eight for 88. Trott bowled very well indeed, and took five wickets for 5 runs apiece. Middlesex won by 189, the University thus losing their second match during the week. Score and analysis M iddlesex . First innings. Second innings. P. F.

Reese, who played well against Lord Hawke’s team in New Zealand a few years ago, and N. C. V. Turner, of Repton, made their first appearance for Essex and Nottinghamshire respect­ ively. Wass was still unable to bowl, but it is expected he will be well enough to play against Yorkshire on Thursday next. The home side began disastrously, George Gunn being held at the wicket at 3 and Jones being bowled at 15 by a ball from Buckenham which smashed the leg-stump. With the advent of John Gunn the Essex fielding deteriorated sadly, catch after catch being miased. Hardstaff, who was missed off the first ball he received, survived long enough to add 52 for the third wicket with John Gunn, who also assisted Payton in putting on 101 for the fifth in 85 minutes. John Gunn made 92 out of 167 in 165 minutes, and hit a 5 and eight 4’s, but was missed no less than five times-when 19, 32, 36, 41 and 72. Payton batted faultlessly for lOOminutes, whilst Turner, who played nicely on the leg-side, was in an hour and ten min­ utes for 44. The last few wickets increased the score considerably, the eighth adding 48, the ninth 33an d
