NOTES ON THE GAME. The Middlesex teams nearly always contain a largo proportion of amateurs, two exceptions being J. T. Hearno and Albert Trott, the latter being 'the wellknown ox-Australian player. These two, with Tarrant, are the only professionals in the team now playing. G. Macgregor, who is tho captain of the Middlesex team, is the- famous amateur wicketkeeper. Bosanquet, who did sucli havoc with tho ball during tho latter portion of Warner's tour of Australia last year, and has com© off against tho Australians •this season, cannot play regularly for his county before August. Middlesex has been expecting great things from Tarrant, a young Australian left-hand bowler, who has qualified for tho county this jnonth, and who has done- well in ■England with both bat and .ball. The team has loiig felt the want of a. lefthander bowler. The Beldam Brothers are as -wellknown players in other fields of sport as Avell as cricket. Weils (20) stood second to Hearne (16.07) last season on tho county liat of bowling averages, and Stogdon headed the batting averages -with 50.75, but ho played only in five innings. Albert Trott got 405 runs in 28 innings, with three times not out, and captured 68 wickete for -1655 runs. Bosanquct got 79 wickets for 1729 .runs, and Hearno 83 for 1334. Tho House of Lords hns given an important, decision in an appeal under the Workmen's Compensation Act. Tho question at issue was whether the widow of a workman employed as a wool sorter in a carpet manufactory was entitled to compensation for the death of her husband Joseph Turvey, who, while employed as a wool sorter, was infected with anthr.ix. It was admitted that he contracted the disease from the wool with which he was working. Four days after the disease manifested itself, in s,pite of an operation, the man died from suffocation, the disease attacking the throat. Tho widow, who was left with three children, all dependent upon tho father's earnings, claimed compensation for tho losa of her husband, under the Workmen's Compensation Act. The case came before Sir Richard Harrington, tho County Court Judge of Worcestershire, who held that tho death was caused by accident, arising out of and in the course of the man's employment, and he awarded tho widow £201 3s 2d as compensation. Tho case was carried to the Court of Appeal, which upheld tlic Judge's decision..
