McEwen took Mash's place to try and divide. Sharpe and Billings, and the first named drove his third ball to the off for four and then to the en for one. But Sharpe's days and moments were quickly flying for Poster, with his second ball (a daisy), bowled him after he had been in 2 hours and a half compiling 16. Score 168-8-76, Shoups had been in since 33 way on the board, and played the game all through, bitting all round the wicket, slogging the loose ones and saving his side from an ignominious failure. Mactaggart was next, and ushered in the beginning of the end, but he got McEwan' away for four for a start, put, Potter' to the screen for the usual, and then nicely guarded. against one of his hottest.. Potter was still kept on, and while he continued good bowling. warranted it. Foran over he would occasion ally get off the wicker, and for the next would perhaps send down some real clinkers. McEwan slatted his next with a medium paced. one from which Mactaggart was very nearly bowled and stumped. He got bis fourth to leg for one, and the ball beat Billings in the last of McEwan's over, Station commenced in place of Potter, but seemed to he played with ease! McEwan was hit to the railings by Billings, and one from Metagant's bat put 190 up: Mactaggart was hitting freely and suffered accordingly, as he drove Stanion to Price, al loog off, and he held it. Dane was next in, and was welcomed by Rings cutting Stanion for eight in two successive balls. 200 up. Mann next went on at his old end in place of McEwan, and me put him to leg.
Dane strikes one as having a thorough know ledge of the game, but is out of practice, til ings was slashing freely at Mann, nothing seeming to come amiss. 210 up, Dane drove Stagion's third along the grass in, a very finished manner for four, and he again
·fared Mann and got him to leg for two. Stanion appeared to be sending down good straight balls that were on the wicket, but Billings seemed to find no difficulty in playing them. Dane was batting carefully and looked dangerous McEwan went on, in if he once got set. place of Mann, and was. twice driven to leg and the off six being notched, 220 up, Dane made two by one of the prettiest cuts of the innings off Stanion. Billings, and then Dane, put him to leg for one each, and the former also to square leg for four. Nine scored off Stanion's last, and the men fast getting set. But the end was at hand as Dane put McEwan feebly up in the air and was taken by Turnbull, Total for the side, z30, leaving Shanghai to to tie.
At 3.50 the Straits took the field, and A. E. Lanning and McEwen came out for Shang. hai to bat to the bowling of Billings, who started from the lower end, and, McEwen took the first ball. Mackenzie, in spite of a strained tendon, commenced from the City end bowling his first to Lanning, who drove his second to the stand 'fur four. Green,
in the slips, took two hard cuis from Lanning and was applauded, from all round the ground. McEwen cut Billings for four and again for one. Mackenzie was bowling medium pacers and getting a good break on from the off. Blilings was making them jump, and his next over was a maiden. For a time nothing of moment occurred as Mackenzie and Billings were dead on the stumps, and it had taken fifteen minutes to put up 10.
hackenzie's next was a maiden, as when he kept to medium speed breaks he was danger- ous. Wright was saving runs in the slips and, in fact, it was the best exhibition of fielding that had yet been seen from the Straits. The cricket was deadly slow it seeming the batsmen's object to play out time and start good and fresh tomorrow marinig. Lanning glanced to leg a fast one from Mackenzie, and Dane well saved a boundary. Fifteen runs had taken thirty-five minutes to make, Mackenzie's first went to the screen for four from a flukey hit by McEwen, and a hard cut by the same bats- man put 20 up after 40 minutes play.

Lanning was having hard luck as he was hit four times on the inside of the thigb. Sharpe took the ball from Mackenzie at the top end and bowled a maiden to McEwan. Lanning made three to leg off Billings the only score of the over, and one only was made off Sharpe's bext five. The game still continued of the tament description, Sharpe and Billings both being on the spot and the pitch playing very bumpy, Stumps were drawn leaving Lanning at 12 and McEwan, 13. Out of twenty-two overs thirteen were maidens.
