ADDINGTON t MIDLAND, j Seven out of the Addington Fifteen had • finished their second innings last week, ■ and the Midland**!-# had to deal with the _ remainder on Saturday hurt. This they did »athdftcterii¥-~for themselves, at any ’ rate—the last wicket falling with the score at 101, an increase of 27 only <m that of 5 the previous Saturday. The bowling waa i on tin spot, and the scoring calk for no 1 comment, sot one of the Addington tail 1 proving g»<»d for double figures. Even . with fifteen in the field, and a by no i means irreproachable wicket, to give . their bowler# ft lift, the Addington : men were not <*<jual to the task of proj renting the Midland team from scoring the | 32N runs refiuired to win the mat'd). They • did so with thanks, chiefly, to n ] rattling innings of 82 by Huehamin, whose j batting star has certainly l***n in the I ascendant during this match. Going in j first with Strange, Ruchanao left fourth | whket d'-*n, the score then sbiuding at | 102, ..ut f which he had made all but 20. lib ruu» were made with extreme rapidity, and included one 5, five 4’«, and eight H’u.

Fowke greatly aided ia the event of the afternoon, keep--1 ing hi* wicket up. and scoring slowly, while buchanas did run-getting enough for himself and hall the eleven beside*. Ashby, os usual, made matter# very lively during the short time before game was called, scoring double figures, n»>t out, in tour bite. Anderson, a new comer, likely to prove an nuajuiailion to the Midland Club, fely:»wed sterling, pretty cricket for 13, also not out. The conclusion foimd the eld'r Club victor# with five wiekots to spare.
