W a r n e r o n B a r n e s ’ B o w l in g . Inter-State Matches. The Englishmen’s visit to Tasmania resulted in a couple of victories, both of which were gained with consider­ able ease. A t Launceston, where the .margin was in their favour by eight wickets, the home side showed some good all-round cricket. The Tasmanians, upon winning the toss, did so well for a time that it was not until 186 that their fourth wicket fell, but Iremonger subsequently bowled with such effect that the innings closed for 217. Martin, who had made a hundred against the South Africans a year before, played a useful innings of 48, and Tumilty (sound a,nd free) and McKenzie (patient) put on exactly 100 for the fourth partnership. Playing free cricket, the visitors gained a lead of 115, ten of the side reaching double-figures. Mead, with 98 to his credit, was scorer-in- chief : he put on 69 with Woolley and 85 with Iremonger, and offered only one chance—when 7. Woolley, during a lively display, hit 24 runs from two overs sent down by Martin, and at the end of the innings Strudwick and Hitch added 60 together by bright cricket. On the third day, with the Tasmanians struggling to effect a draw, the play was very slow. Hawson, who went in upon the fall of the second wicket, carried out his bat for a very X>atient 36, and England, set 51 to win, obtained the runs for the loss of Vine and Foster. At Hobart everything was dwarfed by the wonderful batting of Woolley, who made the highest score ever obtained in matches between English and Australian teams. He went in upon the fall of the first wicket at 62, and in three hours and a-half made 305 out of 512 and was
