WELLINGTON* MATCHES. SIXTH ROUND OF SENIOR CHAMPIONSHIP. CENTURY BY MIDLANE. Tho sixth round of tho local senior championship was commenced on the Basin Reserve on Saturday afternoon under conditions of tho most favourable nature. Though the wickets wore good, the batting exhibitions, with two or throe exceptions, were very mediocre. Tho best: score of tho after, noon was registered by Midla.ne in the inter-club game between East A and East U. The batsman previously particularised made HI runs and vacated tho creases at the end of the day’s play without being beaten. In the same contest Mahoney made 62 before bo was disposed of. In the other games scoring was comparatively small and nothing of an exceptional nature was achieved. EAST A v. EAST B.
In this inter-club contest the B team won the toss and elected to bat. Their form was consistent with, their displays earlier in the season. Tho small total of 83 runs was made by the side, only three men obtaining 'double figures. Gibbes was tho most, successful howler for tho A team, capturing four wickets at a cost oi 20 runs. Tho weakness of the howling of tho B team was demonstrated _ when thoir opponents wore at the wickets. Though six trnndlers were tried only ono man was got rid of by a direct hall, this Tucker, Who had 33 runs to hia credit before hawing to retire to the shade of tho pavilion, Midlano and Mahoney practically won tho match for their side by scoring 123 runs for the second wiokot. Mahoney was hatting confidently and strongly when ho. was smartly caught by Olaridge off Dickson. Midlane played a splendid innings for his 111 and once more demonstrated that ho is as good a batsman as any at present playing in tho senior ranks. Tho scores are: EAST B —First Innings.

HUTT.‘ Tlie most attractive display of cricket seen on the suburban ground this season was that marking the opening stage of the South-Hutt District match on Saturday. The home players' found themselves badly in arrears when stumps were drawn. Patrick and Vara went first to the wickots. . The former played with great confidence. Varo and Burton 101 lto Pringle without getting to ■work, but Bind emulated Patrick’s tactics and the fieldsmen were given a merry time before, he was disposed of. With only four wickets down and 153 up tilings were looking anything but encouraging for the homo team. Then Matthews got two wickets in ono over and Judd one in the next with the score still standing at 157. The next reading was eight for 159. McKay and Smith commenced to punish the bowling severely, the board showing 229 before they were separated. The last wicket fell at 255. Matthews oarao out on top in the bowling average with two. for 21. Shortly after tlie Hutt men had opened thoir innings the superior howling of the Southerners became apparent.

Pilcher’s was the last wicket to fall before stumps were drawn, Patrick’s average standing then at five
for 33. Wilson played an attractive innings. Scores:— WELLINGTON SOUTH—First Innings.
