SPORTING NOTES.

It is unfortunate that the match which was 1.5 bave been played on the Cricket Ground to day he fallen through, sad that we bare to wait a little uger Tefore we see the first an- counter between the Clab and the Barrison; In its stead a game between a Service and a Civilian team bau bein arranged, the latter side not being fully made up yet. Only three of the late Interport champions appear, all in the civilian tean, while the Service eleven includes eight military and three naval men. The ex- citement will be rather wild probably. The inst Club v. Garrison game should be worth watching, thangh, apart from Inmeden, the Garrison is hardly as strong as it has been in some recent years; but Lumsden is half aside in himself, and Chichester, Davies, Rimington and a few more can be relied on to give him support. The Club XI. naturally is locked on a stronger just now than it has

been for some time..
