CRICKET.

' Cricketers were vouchsafed a beautiful 1 xlay for their games on Saturday, hub the ! heavy rains during the week placed the [ batting sides at a disadvantage. This was | especially the case in the continuation of 1 the game between the United and Wflre--1 housemen's Senior Elevens, as their wicket ! was in a very sodden state. The game ' between the Midland and Lancaster Park 1 Elevens was continued upon a turf which had not suffered nearly so severely, but 1 for all that the wicket and outfielding ground were on the Blow side. SENIOR CUP. Lancaster Pabk v. Midland. The Lancastrians, with nine wicketß down for 309, continued their innings with Bates and Cant. Nine runs were added before Lawrence got a "yorker" past Cant. The Midland started fairly well, as, although Treweek leCt early, good play by Macdonald, Aahby, Barnes, Wheatley and Lawrence eet 139 on the score sheets with only four men out. After that a tail exhibited itself, and 178 was the total at i the close of the innings. The follow-on has bo far produced 17 runs for the loss of two wickets. The Park's fielding was fairly good, and De Maus' bowling was most successful and difficult. Scores :—
