With the arrival of the steamer Hai llas (Captain M. Herlees) from Haiphong, came one bundred and sixty Filipinos from the Hanef Exposition. They came at the cabled request of Senor Dominador Gomez, the President of fe Union Obrers Dainocratica of Manila who was advised to take this step by Governor Taft. It will be remembered that a few weeks ago some

The general weakness of batting may be judged from the fact that between them four men made 129 out of the 148 runs scored and no less than seven men were clear bowled, and that on a comparatively easy wicket! True, the light! was bad, but it is to be feared that kek of practice was the chief cause of the weakness of defence. Garde was in excellent form

bohind the sticks" and, as will be soon, gave away no extras. The Salding was good, though at least one catch was mised. Toulmir bowled uncommonly well and took 5 wickete for 34 rans, Allenby and Gaide started the batting for the Navy, and Dixon and Bird bowind. Allenby gave little trouble, as also did Conke, but, on Moore joining Gardo, s determined stand was made, and, despito several changes of bowling, the score was taken to 33 before Garde was well caught. in the long-feld by Gray for an excellent innings of 45. Pannelt did not stay long, being well caught and bowled by Rimington, but Corter again played good cricket and materi- ally helped Mours to increase the coore, The Intter played splendidly and his was the highest Individual score of the match. He was not get rid of until 120 had bean telegraphed,” at which total he was caught for an admirable 52.

Blair' 31, coming when Filipinos were treated by the French authorities, it did, was most useful and it is the intention of Senor Gomes to pro- séents the Exposition officials for damages on account of insuficient protection afforded the natives as per the terms of their contract.

Carter's excellent innings was brought to a close by a very pretty catch at short slip by Hanoo, who had given up the gloves to Elborough.

handicapped by the wind, the civilians were having more than a fair share of the game, the forwards combining nicely. Responding to an appeal from their supporters to comeaway." the Argonauts sticked and Ainsley sent a hurd, Ligh slot into the corner of the goal, which OF THE FOLLOWING RACES : Hickling cleared. Keeping up the pressure, the Shila fualists twice in quick snscossion bad hard lizes in 'not scoring, Hickling having to bandie, on both occasions. Benuar was playing his usual hard game, his heading being perfect rawarded The Argonauts at last were for their constant pressure Austen miskicked into the far side of the goal, out'of. Hickling's reach, and Bouvar, making a placky effort to stave off a score, headed through the goal, the ball striking the inside of the upright and falling into the net. All the game was now oloen in on the Club's goal, and three abortire cornera fell to the navy. It looked odds on their inercasing their lead, but half-time was called with the score

Then the Club defence had an anxious time, but with the aid of a little luck kept, the goal intact. A dangerous, attack was brilliantly cleared by Austen, who was playing a reliable game. In running out to save, Hickling was impeded and though the ball was sant into the net, the foul aullified the point. Play at this period was mostly in favour of the naval 'mon, who were showing first-class combination. The chance of the game fell to Cooper. Henderson contred right into Cooper's feet, but the centre lifted the ball high over the bar. The homesters at this stage werofull value for a goal, but the forwards, though excellent in the open, failed sadly when it came to Enish. Full-time arrived with the score:-
