As he sat there, apparently relieved when the band-shakes of congratulation were over, still unstrapping his pads, it was impossible not to contrast him with that" "old Champion whose record he had equalled and who died ten years ago.

Hobbs is not yet forty-three years of age, and he weighs under 1 stone. W. G. Grace was fifty-air when he scored his last century, and his weight at that time approached 20 stone. And Hobbs, slight in build of medium height, looked almost frail by com- parison when one recalled in memory the burly figure of, @W.G.y'a giant in stature, bulky, as broad as a door, bluff. bronzai, mad bearded. „ ·

RECORD-MAKING,

"Of course, I am very, very pleased," said Hobbs, as he took off his second pad, although I sometimes think that too much attention is paid to records and an exaggerated importaser often given to some innings just because they reach three figures. "Many a 50 or less, you know, is of more value to a side and of greater merit than some of the centuries.
