G. made his biggest score at Lord’s (196). M .C .C . could only bat ten men in the second instalment of their hopeless task, Brown having injured his hand. 1 hey had lost six for 192 on Tuesday night, albeit Dowson hit finely for an hour.

Marshall, from Taunton School, and Bowring, the Bruton pro. The visitors profited not by winning the toss, only the veteran Braund—who can do nothing wrong just now— standing up to Booth and Drake with anything like confi­ dence. His 44*' took him 2 hours, and contained no chance till 41. It was quite a “ veterans’ day,” for when Yorkshire went in Rhodes and Hirst did most of the run-getting, after Wilson had scored 21 out of 22 in fifteen minutes. Perhaps Booth delighted the crowd most, however, for his brilliant 37 included a huge dri^e over the football pavilion. The innings closed on Tuesday for 298, Hirst being eventually 90*. He was batting for slightly over two hours, and hit thirteen 4’s. His stand with White for the eighth wicket produced 62. Seeing that the total was only two short of 300, Hylton-Stewart’s analysis of five for 72 w as remarkably good. The visitors broke down terribly on goin g in again, and nobody scored 20. Bajana was badly run out, and Drake and Bayes bowled irresistibly. Ow ing to an injury, Denton did not field on Tuesday. Yorkshire won by an innings and 25. At Nottingham, June 30, July 1 and 2. On paper, Kent were stronger than ever, with J. R. Mason— his first appear ance this season—and A. P. Day. The first d ay’s play was not unfavourable to Notts, who scored 266 and then disposed of Hardinge and Colin Blythe for 42. The home batting was marked by much unevenness, the brothers Gunn (both run gut) and Whysall making 170 between them, and Mr. “ E x tra s” securing the large proportion of 39. John Gunn, who with Whysall added 123 for the fourth wicket in just over 2 hours, was unfortunate in being run out when within 8 of his 100. Day and Fielder secured four w ickets apiece, the former' being quite irresistible after the tea interval. Mason showed what a really great cricketer he is on Tues­ day, when he scored 75 without a blemish, hitting nine 4’s. Together with Jennings, he added 85 in seventy minutes for the eighth wicket. Humphreys’ defensive effort was also worthy of the highest praise. So far a splendidly even game had been seen; but Notts on going in again quickly lost George Gunn, Lee, and Hardstaff for 40. Then John Gunn and Whysall added 72 in as many minutes, the former being quite the batting hero, of his side. Notts doubled their score for the remaining six men, thanks to missed catches. Whysall batted surprisingly well in each innings, and his future should 'be watched. Oates and Wilson merrily added 45 for the ninth wicket, and Fielder got five victims for 80. Dillon strained his leg and had to be helped from the field, and could not bat. An exciting finish followed after Kent had lost Hardinge for 23. Humphreys was badly run out by Blvthe, the latter’s 37 being the' best effort. Kent were beaten by 62, Alletson bowling extremely well towards the close. First Innings. S o m e r se t .
