Nottinghamshire. At Canterbury, August 7, 8, and 9. It was a great pity that rain should have interfered with the later stages of this match, a pity alike for Humphrey’s sake and because the game was left in a very interesting position. On Thurs­ day (Ladies’ Day), when between 8,000 and 9,000 paid at gate, Notts batted all day. George Gunn left in the third over; and there was no run made until the sixth; but A. W. Carr (twice missed, off successive balls, when 10) and Lee added 99 in 80 minutes before the latter played on; Carr and John Gunn put on Ji for the third wicket, and John Gunn and Payton 61 for the fourth. The rest did com­ paratively little, and from 211 for four the innings finished off for 308. Payton and Lee each batted 135 minutes. On Friday, after rain in the night, the wicket was slow, but the absence of hot sunshine kept it from becoming very difficult. Only a few overs were bowled in one brief spell before lunch, owing to more rain; afterwards, Hardinge and Seymour played fine cricket in adding 127 together, and averting all danger of a follow-on; and when they had gone Woolley stayed 105 minutes for an admirable 50, the score at the close being 258 for 7. On the last morning Woolley left with only 2 added, and the total was 14 behind that of Notts, though Carr and Fielder had made a plucky eifort to put Kent ahead. The men of the White Horse badge meant winning, and Blythe played havoc with the Midlanders’ wickets. He had 4, Woolley 1, and 5 were down for 28 when a storm broke over the ground and ren­ dered further play impossible. N o tts . First Timmare.

Sussex v. Middlesex. At Eastbourne, August 7, 8, and g. The home side had a bad match. Their fielding was poor; their bowling lacked sting; and, making all allowances for the fact that they had the worst of the wicket, their batting was anything but distinguished. V. R. Polley, of Richmond, played for Middlesex for the first time, and Sussex lacked Cartwright, Holloway, and Cox. Neither Saville nor Tarrant was at his best; but Warner and J. W. Hearne made a big third wicket stand, adding 206 in a couple of hours. Warner gave no chance, and hit a 5 and seven 4’s. Hearne’s inn­ ings was also free from fau lt; he batted three hours, hit nineteen 4’s, and off-drove in most telling style. At the fall of the fourth wicket, Mann joined Hendren, and, slash­ ing about them, these two added 130 in a trifle over an hour. At the close, the score was 431 for 5. It reached only 473 on Friday, the brothers Relf quickly disposing of the tail. Play ceased soon after 5 o’clock, owing to rain. Sussex were then 216 for 8. Jupp and Vine (principally Jupp) added 75 for the second wicket in an hour, and Albert Relf and Vine put on another 75 for the third; but then J. W. Hearne’s googlies caused a collapse. The innings closed for 227 on Saturday; and in the follow-on only Chaplin and Wilson, who added 54 in 40 minutes, could do anything against Tarrant. Middlesex won by an inn­ ings and 137 runs.
