SATURDAY-'S MATCHES, ' '.■'•'. FIRST GRADE. Albion v. Caiusbrook A. Tho Albion-Carisbrook A mateh was concluded on Saturday, and resulted'in a twopoint win for the former. At the commencement of the' ■ A'e second strike it looked as though Albion were going to secure a. four-point- win, Wilson, Barron, Siedeberg, and Godfrey being? dismissed in quick 6iiccessioiir Watson (who gave an easy catch to squarelcg before ho had pot into doubje figures) and Rutherford, however, again, oamo to tho rescue of their side, and were at the wickets for the last hour'and a-ha3f;qf play. Albion are not too strong in bowling talent this season, but it is doubtful if the best use was made of the bowlers in the team; oh Saturday. Cummings was bowling well and keeping a, good length when he wa6 taken off. Ideal weather prevailed, and tho large number of spectators who assembled proves that the game is not on the wane in'tho''north end. The wicket played-true, and the outfield was faster than on the- preceding day. Rutherfordv ■ Watson, and Cameron batted well for tho A's, as did Duthie and Cummings for the Albion.
