After the disgusting weather aicted the Colony in the early days of October, the Clerk of the Weather seems to have been overtaken by at of re- morse. The match on Saturday "oposed in perfect cricketers' weather and pro- ridentially the Over Thirty batted frst. Brace was not available and M. M. Watson took his place and de Rome transferred to the Under Thirty. It is the 29th supposed he was born on

Hayward and Mitchell opened to Bowker (Naval Yard end) and Goodwin. Both batsmen played good cricket on what appeared to be a fast and true wicket.
With the score just short of alty Owen Hughes relieved Bowker and an over or two later Parker, who had at
last finished at the office, came en for Goodwin. In the latter's last over Owen Hughes failed to hold a very hot one at second slip from Hayward. He only got his right hand to the ball, and few fields

An open letter to the Officers of
The King's Own Scottish Borderers. GENTLEMEN,—There is a very strong rumour that you are keen riding men and we have given eredence to it because we want it to be true.

NOTES, For the Over thirty, or I believe should say Thirty-one,-Mitchell and Hayward played very nice knocks though the latter was dropped twice and perhaps was lucky, not to be out on two other Bowker bowled well but with ocensions. no luck. I and my previous reference, to It should his slow ball was not correct.
The Hermes scored early in the game, Tinker securing a try near the posts, which he easily converted. Scrappy play followed, and eventually Blake, for the Club scored a clever try. Millar failed to convert.
Our Polo Ground is within easy reach of Town and is in excellent condition thanks to the time and money spent on it by the Hon. Secretary Mr. W. Stanton. You'll like Stanton. Play is on Mon days, Tuesdays and Saturdays commenc ing about 4.20.
YACHTING.
OPENING OF THE SEASON.
CHAMPIONSHIP RACES.
The yachting season opened at the Royal Hongkong Yacht Club on Satur day afternoon, when the first of a series of Championship races was sailed.
The weather conditions were very favourable. The course, of a distance of about nine miles, was to the Channel Rocks. Kowloon Rock, Lyemun Beacon, the finish being at the Club line.
In the Handicap Class" there was very little difference in time. Bella was arst, Lu Linda second, and Durathen third.
Daphne was first in the Guels, Joan second, and Thecla third.
Good times, and a keenly-contested race took place in the Heyward Hays Class Boojum was first, Bluenose second, and Adele third.
Detailed Results:

Ramsay played a delightful knock, though he gave one easy chance at deep square leg off a hook which he failed to get hold of quite. I sincerely wish him a speedy recovery from his injury. The force of the blow may be judged that but for a fielder at square leg the ball would probably have reached the shou dary almost at right-angles_to" the wicket!
Leach slung them down very fast but he does not seem accurate at present. Lightfoot coats runs but seems to gut wickets. Owen Hughes, batted nicely when he was in. As usual the trial has left the selection of the team in na seven more perplexing position.

men would have done as much. ไป Parker's first over Summers put down Hayward at thiril slip-it was a very hot!
The score continued to mount catch. until Hayward lashed out Owen Hughes and failed to get hold of the ball Fincher ran across to long-on and made a nice catch. He apparently had it all the way. With Lightfoot in Mit- chell proceeded to lay on to Parker, driv. ing him twice for four and putting a full pitch away to leg for two in one ever..
In Owen Hughes' next over Lightfoot seemed to try anil tura him to leg and misjudged the break: Goodwin fell for. ward and made the catch at full length. Morris succeeded but was 1.b.w. first hall, The batsman evidently thought the ball pitched clear of the off stump but the umpire was against him. Sayer made some very nice shots during his short knock and was freer than usual and he was unlucky to be beautifully e and -by-Owen Hughes off a very hot Feturn Hancock succeeded but played a very weak shot as his second ball and was taken at slip. At this poin: Owen Hughes, who had previously been a bit varied in his length, was bowling really well. After. Alitenell had tried to turn a length ball from Summers to leg and been bowled in the process, Owen Hughes yorked Evans. 123-7-2. A no-ball later Summers, who was bowling very well, bowled Lyal with a beauty. A few balls later Watson had a go at the same bowler and was well taken at cover by Bowker who, running back, held the ball at the third or possibly fifth attempt.
Only two second division league. With Sergt. Leach in Bowker came on
matches were played on Saturday, the again. The new-comer, who has not pre-match between Kowloon C.C. and Indian viously played in local cricket, has nb: a particularly good style but he watched RC in the first division having been the ball and managed to take runs off changed to a "friendly." Summers who previously had got 3 wickets for no runs. He put a couple of hard drives for four before Jex was de- ceived by Bowker's slow ball and waa caught in the slips. It was a surprising collapse as the first two batsmen collect ed 100 between them and the rest, includ ing Mr. Extras only got 5. But, apart from locse balls at the start of Owen Hughes trundling the Bowling was un- commonly good and the fielding excellent. The innings closed at 4.10 p.m. 151-10-3.
Rumjahn and Ramsay opened the innings
for
the Under Thirties to Leach at the Naval Yard end and Lyal. The former slings them down pretty fast but he did not at first trouble the batsmen and Rumjahn in particular gut him nicely away to leg. Lyal wast on the short side too but at 35 he got an uncommonly nice one past Rumjaba who up to then had been batting con- fidently. After 40 went up Evans relieved Leach, but it was not until Lightfoot took the ball from Lyal that the second wicket fell. Bridgeland who had ap parently been trying to play himself in made a very poor shot at a short one which locked up a bit and gave Bayer an easy chance at cover. Hans came quicker when a most unfortunate accident happened to Ramsay. Lightfoot bowled
faster on a bit abort and in trying to hook Ramsay took it just over the left eye. It was a very nasty knock and the batsmah had, of course, to retire.. Owen Hughes had a merry' knock, and committed a serious assault on a passing tram, but next ball he was excellently caught by Morris at back- ward point. Fincher previously had been out off a weak shot on the off, being caught at first slip off Sayer. The light failed rapidly and at about 8.40 stumps and the match were drawn. Had there been another half hour a most interest- ing finish might have been seen as at the close de Home and Parker were both going hard for the bowling.

FRIENDLY MATCHES.
If you want to see a replica of à Home side country Steeplechase Meeting come out to Fanling next Saturday the 30th. The Kwaqti Course is not far from the Border connecting our Territory with that of the Chinese. The Course was started over a year ago by a few ardent spirits led by Dr. Pierce Grove, who is at present at Home on leave. His son is a well-known rider and Master of the Cambridge Drag. The Jumps may seem low to you but, after all, the Ponies are not very high except, of course, in the summer. Mr. H. Birkett is Master of | the Fanling Hunt," and helps to create the illusion that we in England. In appearance be is a typical English Squire, generously and solidly built with a strong but kind face. His lieutenant, Mr. A. H. Potts is of the newer school, a typical cavalry shiekh, and one of our more cheery citizens Hunting starts early in November, the Meets being on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays.
Our Race Course at Happy Valley we are naturally very proud of, more specially as it is only preserved from destruction by a stern battle-with-the elements during at least half of the year. You probably know we get Typhoons here and storms of unusual strength, and the placidness of Happy Valley seems to act as a magnet to elemental fury. In this connection our Public Works De partment comes in for a great deal of criticism, but they seem to expect it and in pidgeon Chinese." It bilang all same water on duck's back." The Jockeys are gentleman Riders and the weights vary. from 140 to 165 lbs. So, if you have any one who turns the scale at about 10 stone we hope to see them in the saddle at our future Race Meetings By the way there is a Meeting on November 5th, which you shouldn't miss. The Clerk of the Course is Mr. R. J. Pater son, a Cavalryman during the Great War, and a keen rider who has the mis- fortune to be unable to follow his favourite pastime to any extent owing to the effect of an accident austained a few years ago. Yours faithfully,"
