C A N T E R B U R Y v. SO U TH M E L B O U R N E . In in flictin g upon the strong S outh Melbourne team a rev e rse b y an innings and 34 runs, th e home side did an exception ally good perform ance. T h e p itch w as perfect throughout, and p layed as w ell on th e last d a y (January 19) as on th e first (Janu ary 16). H . M. T ay lo r kep t w icket fo r C an terbu ry instead of C. B o x s h a ll; Sims, P atrick , and Harold L u sk were u n availab le ; and R . G. H ickm o tt m et w ith so n a s ty an acciden t while fielding (his left thum b being b o th sp lit and dislocated) th a t S. A. O rchard was allowed to ta k e his place. Splendid bow ling b y Sandm an and B en n ett, backed up b y th e keenest of fielding, disposed of the tourists for th e p a ltry to ta l of 80. W hen four C an ter­ bury w ickets had fallen for 73, there seemed little prospect o f a b ig score ; b u t P atterso n and R use played excellen t cricket, and added 113 for th e fifth in less than fifty m inutes. Sandman, a g rea tly im p roved b at, helped his skipper to add 63 for th e sixth n ex t d ay, and later on B en n ett and C arlton put on 70 for th e ninth. Reese was a t th e top of his form , took 140 m inutes o n ly to m ake his 130, and gave no chance. P atterson ’s 53 was e q u ally good, and th is p layer ou gh t to make a big nam e in th e near future. T he feature of South Melbourne’s second innings w as a stan d of 122 for th e first w icket b y M cCorm ack, p la yin g a defensive game, and Pu rvis, hittin g finely. A fte r th e y were parted the o n ly stand of an y len gth w as one of 44 b y T ro tt and D eas for th e eighth wicket. On the first and th ird d ays there were o n ly sm all attendances ; b u t on S atu rd ay th e gate-m on ey reached ^ 111— a good to ta l for N ew Zealand. It should be noted th at th e C an terb u ry innings adds u p 381, and the runs off the S outh M elbourne bow lers to ta l 348, while the batsm en ’s scores aggregate 304; b u t no correction could be obtained.

T his w as the last m atch o f S outh M elbourne’s tour, which w as due to th e enterprise of the W ellin gton W ednes­ d a y A ssociation, and despite th e croakers w ho prophesied disaster turned ou t a huge success. C. G. W ilson and the R ev. E. O. B lam ires helped th e hom e side ; T ro tt was absen t from th e visito rs’ ranks. R ain cu t short the first d a y ’s p la y (Jan. 21), W ellin gto n ’s to ta l standin g a t 91 for 4 when stum ps were draw n. T h e y com pleted th eir innings for 165 on the n ex t day, and, th an ks to some excellen t bow lin g b y M cIn tyre, the v isito rs were dism issed for 132. S co tt and K y le had done w ell w ith th e b a ll in th e hom e team ’s first ; K e n n y and G iller did even b etter in the second, when B lam ires w as again to p scorer.
