CRICKET.
There will be great doings in the Albion Club (Dunedin) on Monday, October 28, when it is intended to celebrate the jubilee of the club with a match between past and present members, to wind up with a social in the evening. A continuous existence of 50 years is, probably, unknown by many clubs in New Zealand, and few, possibly, even in Australia, where the history of cricket can bo traced back to the aborigine who wielded a waddy in place of a cricket bat. It should, therefore, be a red-letter day in the history of the game in Now Zealand when the Albion Club produce on the field men who played cricket for the club back in the sixties. It is interesting to note that the Hon. T. Mackenzie was one of the original members.
