Lancashire. At Lord’s, June 12, 13, and 14. Lancashire played the same team as against Gloucestershire; Middlesex lacked E. L. Kidd, G. G. Napier, and M. H. C. Doll, and took the field without a bowler above medium pace. Perhaps this largely accounted for the fact that they were kept in it all day on Thursday, when Lancashire ran up 408 for 6. Their fielding was good on the whole, though Sharp was twice missed off hot chances ; but their attack lacked sting. Hornby and Makepeace sent up 139 for the first wicket before the Everton man was out for 76, made in 110 minutes and containing nine 4’s. John Tyldesley and Hornby added 57 more; then the skipper was caught at the wicket for 73 (four 4’s), made in 150 minutes— a good innings, but scarcely as sound as Makepeace’s. Five men were out for 276 ; but with Heap and Sharp together runs came fast, and in 80 minutes these two added 113. Then Heap ran himself out. One 5 and five 4’s were included in his forcible 55. Sharp passed his century before stumps were drawn. On Friday the innings closed for an addition of 37, the veteran J. T. Hearne taking all four wickets at a cost of only 17 during this part of the venture. Sharp batted 205 minutes for his capital century, gave only one chance (at 50), and hit eleven 4’s. The day was dull and cloudy, and rain caused half-an- hour’s cessation of play. Middlesex had an uphill task, upon which they started well, the first wicket realising 65. But by the time the score had reached 115 four more were down, Heap and Huddleston bowling finely, and being backed up by splendid fielding. This fell away somewhat while Haig and Hendren were adding 60 in a bad light, two catches being missed. At five o’clock play had to be adjourned on account of bad light. Haig and Hendren took their partnership to 95 before it ended, having been two hours together. The follow-on was still likely, but Lee kept up an end while Murrell hit, and, though 37 were wanted when Jack Hearne joined Lee, the veteran and the colt proved quite equal to the task. Lancashire’s second innings was a case of mistaken tactics. To make a hundred or so quickly and attempt to get Middlesex out again might have been worth while. But 118 in 135 minutes was a dull, objectless (stay!—there were the three points) performance. Only Whitehead showed any sparkle ; Hornby’s 17 took 70 minutes. There was some slight excuse, perhaps, in the fact_ that Tarrant bowled in his best form; but the slow tactics made a mirac'e necessary for a Red Rose victory, and_ the miracle failed. Tarrant and young Hearne put on 7 3 in 25 minutes for the second wicket, and F. T. Mann also hit finely. First Innings. L ancashire . Second Innings. A. H. Hornby c Murrell, b J. T.

Umpires : J. Moss and W. A. J. West. Aldershot Command v. Incogniti. This match, played at Aldershot on June 9 and 10, had so many remarkable features that the full score is worthy of preservation. In the course of it 1,103 runs were scored. J. H. Ryan, of Northants. who went in last for the Com­ mand in the first innings, was sent in first in the second, and made 208. Capt. W. G. M. Sarel, who has played for Surrey, Kent, and Trinidad, scored a century in each innings of the Incogniti. Set 251 to win in two hours, the famous wandering club got the runs with five minutes to spare. Archdale 'took 9 wickets in the first innings of the Incogniti. Ryan’s big score had the more merit, as it was made against Major H. B. Fawcus, who performed so sensationally in the Navy v. Army match at Lord’s, and G. V. Campbell, not to mention the other bowlers. In the match Capt. Douglas- Jones caught five batsmen and stumped two. First Inning?. A ld ersh o t C om m and , Capt. A. D.
