Yorkshire. Sheffield, June 15 and 16. It was not a long nor by any means a glorious affair for Surrey, this first home match of the Yorkshire eleven. Surrey had, as is nsaally the case in its out matches, an indifferent team; and the “ lobs” of the Yorkshire slow bowler (Armitage) could hardly have been played worse by infants. Jupp went in first for Surrey and carried his bat through the first innings, scoring 37 out of 74runs. Elliott got 13 in that, but Japp’s 12 was the sole double figure in the second venture, which only exceeded 41. Armitage (47), Llyett (46), and Greenwood (20) together, in one innings, scored as many runs as did Surrey from the bat in their two efforts, Yorkshire won by an innings and 58 runs, ami the match was over before two p.m. on the second day. Yorkshire, 173. Surrey, 74 and 41; total, 115. Armitage7s analysis was remarkable for a lob bowler. Overs. Maidens. Runs.

The Surrey executive, for the first time, made the experiment of plaving a match on the first three days of the Canterbury week, and. as Monday was a Bank Holiday, with signal success. Considering the scanty bowling ru each side, high scores were expected, more especially as a splendid wicket had been provided. Sussex began badly, only scoring 28 runs in fifty- five minutes, and at first losing three wickets for three runs. Charlwood’s not-out score of 59 represented more than one-half of the total, as only 101 were scored, and of these seven came under the denomination of extras. Jnpp (38), Mr. Game (23), and Mr. Bead (21), were mainly instrumental in* enabling Surrey to head their opponents by 26 runs on the*first innings, and to Soutkerton’s arm a second time was due the dismissal of the Sussex team for such a paltry sum as 129. Surrey had 10 4 runs to win, and won__ite first win in a county matdb- by 5 wickets. Surrey, 130 and 101 (5 wickets) - total, 234. Sussex, 101 and 129; total, 233, ®vers. Maidens. R im s . Wickets.

Surrey was not well represented, and, with a few exceptions, the cricket shown was very much below county form. The first innings of Sussex was considerably prolong d by the bad fielding of Surrey, and Chari wood had 7 *•' .
