GAMES REVIEWED. The outstanding feature of the malclies
was that in every instance, and on perfect pitclies, a decisive result was arrived at. This was all the more remarkable in view of tho fact that six teams passed the double cen tury, and two players made a serious asaault on the League record of 146, lield by J . G i l man. In both cases, however, they faded when only a few short of the coveted num her, That tho weather was an important factor in tho results is proved by tlie fact that five of tho tcaiii-s wlucb hatted first secured the'verdict, tlio tropical heat haung an oxhaustiug effect upon tho men n

Taylor, Clitheroo’s pru., took liis benefit in the match at Chathuni-road, on Saturday, when CJiorley were o good “ gate,”

Tlio visitors wore Into, owing to tlio overheating of tho ongmo of their dmra, consequently it was tlirco o’clock when Clitlieroo opened tlio inuint^s with Southwortli nnd Ahloreley.

AT Ribblesdalo Wanderers are entirely failing

TRIUMPH AT In every RibbleMlalo League match on
show. Hollins was tlmt man. He is a baU- mnn of polish nnd punch. Jtony of his strokes aro very graceful, displaying tho in finito resource of tho batsman, but ho docs not stop thoro. Ho can hit hard nnd true and on Saturday his bnt nev(?r camo into violent contact with tho air Having com piled 50 in fairly leisurely stylo ho engaged In the ploaflant pastime of attempting to knock tho leather covering off the ball. Ho had already knocked tho length out of the bowling and knocked sweat out or the fields-
him and understood aright both we’s arc do- lightfully in tho singular number. On a wicket Inu-d and true, Hollins and Stirzaker survived an uncomfortoble oi>cning, and be fore long had tho Whalley attack subdued and
submi.ssivo. Nixon howlwl with rnro vim at tho boginning bub the sun soon ex- tracteid the sting. Peters bothered Hollins not n littlo for a couple of overs and then providctl excellent hitting practice. Imko- land bowled threo ovens for two runs and a wickot and wna forthwith hit off hi.s length. Boddy bowled and lIolliiKS hit and Green trundled and Uio hall was twice lost on the railway ombnnkmo.nt. Ijiuigslmw took a turn and vnih infinito compnasion. HoUims di-i- clfirKl. Tlmt. in brief is tho stor^f*- of AVlmlloy’s bowling travail. Jjoyland's innings wns largely a one-man
Saturday, tho team which won the tow won tho match. I t was so at Burrow mid nobody need marvol at tho home leum’s downfall. ,A correct gues-> gave tbe Settle captain tho privilego of tiring his o)q>oiient.s out in Uio field. Hie sun boat pitilewly on tho fields- inon and few after that strain could go to Uio wicket and do tliemsolveo justice with the Imt. Be that us it may, Settle’s innings ■was a pretty \mtchy display. Two men only took advantago of tho condition.s for though sovcral got. doulilo figuics they failed to make a real mark. Of eourso, everybody cjinnot scoro a huiidrixl and Settle are entitled to retort that the men who did the trick are members of their team and that if they hatln’t ” come off ” Bomcbo<ly else might have done -SO. Ck>rtainly Barrow Mipiiorters found littlo to
enthu.so about but there was plenty of good cricket nnd tho game wns always in- leresUng. Tho outstanding figure of tho game was
