PATEAROA V UAXFURLY. ] (By Ook Pateakoa Corresponds :t.) This match came off at Ranfurly on *satuiday week last, and play started •it iii'lf-past 2 in tropical weather. N'eilher team had its full strength, Patearoa being without the help of Grev, Cambridge, \V, Johnston, J. M'Dowell and E. Carr, and Jlnnfurly minus live good men in Wilson, Marshall, Armour, J, Forrester. Armour has never yet, played t uur fellows. I have read of him us having p'ayed against several other clubs, and have tine after time been disappointed in n.y expectation of forming his acquaintance, and am now forced into the c ■nvietimi htld bv Hetsv Prig about Mrs Harris, and don't believe there's no sech a person. Patearoa had only ten men, and H. Screen played as a substitute. Ilanfurly OfUted first, and in their total < f 33 Ja>. Pottinger was top scorer wi'h r l . Clii.mside and M'Lean bowh d well, and the fielding was good. For Pacearou, Chirnside and M'Lean were out v. itliin a minute of each other, both well caught, in the lou field by •J «*. Pottinger off I3ell, and Johnston £ 11 for a rourd un to the same bowler Three down for 22, and Patearoo looking blue. But from that oui things begin lo look up. Schrick ami Wilson showed their form of a few seasons back, and the score went up rapidly. The total was 70 whim Wihon was caueht. Schrick got good heip from some of the. others, and the score came to 120. Wrighc and Bell bowled excellently, and Cameron kept wickets in tine form durina his bout with the glove*. Johnston and Schrick bowled i:i Uanfuily's second innings, and the home team batted—from a Patearo-. point, of view—with admirable moderation. The procession lasted only a .-h.irt time, and irtun the book the.-:' staff s at. you a round-eyed list of nine ducks. The two Bells struck a ff.v scoring notes, and the totni was 20. eight of i hem extras. Young M'Bkiiuiniiig'madea cipi'al one-b-inded c-.tch, and all through hotli sides fielded well. Mr J. Crerar and others umpiied, and .Messrs .UilW a-id Pottinger kept the scores accurately. We warn treated to • good spretd at Mr ""b-ewitt/s diningrooms, Patearoa won by an innings and 68 runs.

(13v O.ue Patsaroa ConaEepoNDEST.) This game was played here on Saturday Inst. The visitors could only musLer. seven men, and there was a little trouble. i." fiudlng. batting and fielding substitutes for the absent four.

. Waipiata put up 35 in (heir first innings, Frank Mat bias getting a double by good batting. Tin-*, team got 57, the excellent bowling of tliH brothers Matliiiis keeping the runs down. Waipiati improved in their second innings, their total of 64 leaving Patearoa with 33 io get in 50 minutes. They got then) with half-an-hour to spare, (he first hat.-inen (M'Lfiiu nni) Scinick) being uhmiquered with 25 and 9 respectively. The fielding was not at h'l .somnolent, no less than 14 men being caugh> <>ui. Keeley caught two and .stumped .ii-, M '.>kiinmitki; and Saumels i-ac'i «:H,ng ; il two, and I>, Chin.side 'three.' 'ihe wicket-keeping of Keeley, 11..re Mini T, Jo!inst-<i, w.is so s.ife that the S'ops had nothing ro do, ihe on!> extras being two leg-byes and tlm-e wides ; ljut alvhough it seems a pits that these fieldsmen's services were lost to their respective sides, it is consoling to feel that they were sub jected to the healthful influence of a 60yds sprint every sixth ball. Pa tearoa won by 10 wicket* and four runs The only permanent officials were umpire J. Crerar (of course) and scorer A, Urerar. .VI r L'uck prowueu h g..on square tm>al »t.
