LOW SCORING IN COUNTY GAMES.

This is the fifth drawn match of the present tour, the Australians having won three of the eight matches played.
After their reverse at Southampton, Notts made no mistake at Leicester, where they defeated the home county by 180 runs in a low scoring match. Gloucester defeated Worcester at Bristol by ar innings and 13 runs after scoring only 280. Lancashire failed to proceed on their way to glory, having their match nt Lord's curtail- ed to one day's play.
Sussex were successful at Brighton where they defeated Somer set by eight wickets. In an exciting game at Leeds, Yorkshire went down to Kent by 54 runs. At Derby Northamptonshire registered their first victory of the season by defeating the home county by the small margin of 8 'runs.
Seven centuries were registered during the mid-week matches, but, taking it on the whole, the bowling gained the upper hand in the majority of the matches. At Birmingham, Warwickshire amass- ed the highest total, scoring 501-6 declared against Essex, but they failed to force a win in a game that produced three centuries.
