Played at Tonbridge on June 17 and 18. Middlesex won by ten wickets. Middlesex had a splendid side but were not quite fully represented, E. A. Beldam taking the place of Hunt. Kent commenced fairly well, the first wicket realising 31 and the second adding 35 in as many minutes. Seymour was third out at 71, and half the side were out for 90. Hutchings was never com­ fortable, and, after batting fifty minutes for 18, played a ball on to his wicket. Marsham was in twenty minutes for a single, and by lunch time the whole side had been sent back for 114. Mignon obtained six wickets for 57 runs, taking his last five for 18, and Trott, who varied his pace well, secured four for 21. The collapse of the home side naturally disappointed the spectators considerably. Middlesex were indebted much to Warner and Tarrant for obtaining a lead of 62 on the first innings, the pair making 86 for the first wicket in an hour and a-half. Tarrant, however, was missed by Huish in the first over, but Warner, who was fourth out at 132, batted one hundred and fifty-five minutes without a mistake and hit eight 4’s. Eight wickets were down for 148, but, thanks chiefly to a useful 23 by MacGregor, the total reached 176, stumps being drawn for the day when the last wicket fell. On Tuesday, on a wicket by-no-means difficult, Kent gave a shocking display, being again all disposed of prior to lunch. Hardinge and Woolley were out before a run had been made, Hutchings was caught in the slips at 8, Mason was held at the wicket at 23, Humphreys met with a similar fate two later, Seymour had his leg stump sent careering a dozen yards at 34, and at 35 Blaker was bowled. Marsham and Huish put on 27 for the eight wicket, but both left at 62, and, after lasting eighty minutes, the innings closed for 67. The side seemed helpless against the fast bowling, but Middlesex thoroughly deserved their success, their fielding being very good, and MacGregor’sform behind the wicket reminding one of his best days. Mignon again bowled well, and in the whole match took a dozen wickets for 90 runs. Middlesex won by ten wickets. Score and analysis ;— K ent . First innings. Second innings.

CAMBRIDGE UN IVERSITY . Played at the Oval on June 17, 18 and 19. Surrey won by eight wickets. With Lord Dalmeny, J. N. Crawford and Strud­ wick away, Surrey were not at full strength on the occasion of Cambridge playing their first match away from home. Play on Monday was rendered rather remarkable by Payne’s brilliant batting prior to lunch. OfF the second over sent down by Hitch he scored 20 by means of five 4’s, and kept up the pace so well that he reached 52 out of 65 in twenty- five minutes. A little later he obtained 31 off two consecutive overs, punishing Lees for 17 (four 4’s and a single) and Rushby for 14 (three 4’s and a 2.) When, at the end of forty minutes, the hundred was reached, Payne had made 86 and Young 13. The pair remained together ten minutes longer, and then, with the total 121, Payne was caught off a skier for a chanceless innings of 92. The Cambridge captain gave a faultless display, and, driving with great power and making many daring pulls, hit a 5 and seventeen 4’s, and only five singles. Baily then came in, and he and Young remained in until lunch time, when the total was 176. Two runs later the latter was caught at the wicket for a faultless 53, which took two hours to make, and at 185 Baily was bowled. Buchanan, after starting rather unsteadily, settled down to good cricket and drove well. Goodwin and Mugliston, after the sixth wicket had fallen at 237, put on 50 in thirty-five minutes, and both succumbed to Marshal, who also obtained the two following wickets. The innings, after lasting four hours, closed for 318, of which number as many as 133 were made in the first hour. Iu the last seventy minutes of the day, Hayward (32) and Hobbs (34) made 68 without being separated. On Tuesday play was very slow at the start, and Hobbs took half-a-hour to score 5. It was not until 106 had been made, in 115 minutes, that a separation was effected, Hayward then being caught for 54 off Napier. With Hayes in, 61 were added in 45 minutes for the second wicket, Hobbs then being bowled, at 167, for a patient and faultless 72, whieh took two hours and 40 minutes to make 5 he hit four 4’s. A run later Hayes, too, was sent back, and at 187 Longman was beaten by Napier, who was bowling admirably. The association of Holland and Marshal increased the score by 58, but none of the remaining players did much, although Hitch hit Goodwin out of the ground, the ball being lost. Lees, owing to a damaged foot, could not bat, and the innings closed upon the fall of the ninth wicket, at 311. Holland carried out his bat for a most useful 54, which con­ tained six 4’s and took two hours io make. Napier’s record of eight wickets for 111 was excellent on so good a wicket. With a lead of 7, Cambridge lost Payne with only two runs scored, and neither Baily nor Buchanan reached double figures. Wright and Young, however, added 35 together, and at the end of the day Palmer played free cricket and carried out his bat for 21. The best cricket of the side was shown by Young, who, driving well, hit eleven 4’s in his 63. He was twice missed after completing his 50, and afterwards played so cautiously as to be in for half-an-hour without adding to his score. Yesterday Hitch bowled with such effect that the five outstanding wickets fell for 29, of whieh Palmer claimed 22. The player named bowled Mugliston and Goodwin with successive balls, and made his record for the innings four for 27. Set 152 to win, Surrey made light of the task, and at lunch time had made 95 without loss, the 50 having been reached in as many minutes. In the afternoon Hayward and Hobbs remained together until 125, when the latter was caught in the slips for a flaw­ less 56. Hayes made only a single, but Holland helped to obtain the rest of the runs, and just before 3.30 Surrey had won by eight wickets. It will be seen that Hayward and Hobbs performed the rare feat of scoring over 100 together in each innings of Surrey. Score and analysis :— C ambridge U niversity . First innings. M. W.
