Spofforth was not a success for Derbyshire this season. He only got two wickets at a cost of 53 runs apiece.
Lookwood oaptured four wickets with four successive balls—a feat almost without parallel in inter-county cricket—in the Surrey v. Warwickshire match.
Two three-figure scores in a Yorkshire innings are few and far between nowadays, aud as Ulyett and Peel have *or years been the mainstay of the county, their successes in the last Sussex match is doubly gratifying. To the Yorkshire total of 351 Peel contributed 128, and Ulyett 109. As Susspx only made 139 and 157, they were beaten by an innings and 36 runs. "
On August 18th the Surrey Eleven had their colors lowered iv a more decisive .fashion fhan.has been the case for a couple of years, meeting with a reverse for the second time during a week; Middlesex defeating them by an innings and 20 runs to spare. The loss of the opportunity of batting first undoubtedly made all the difference to Surrey between success and victory, for rain descended heavily for several hours during the first night, and whereas on the opening afternoon the ball travelled at a rare speed, and the pitch played truly, on the last day a boundary required some getting, and the wicket played dead at first and gradually became treacherous. Middlesex 259 (Hadow 52, Stoddart 43, O'Brien 39):' Surrey 177 (Lohmann 40, W. W. Read 30, Abel 25) and 62 (Lohmann 25).
