SPORTING NOTES.

In this (for Hongkong) rigorous weather some keen cricket and football will be looked for to-day. The main evont is the game on the Cricket Ground between the Interport X1 and the test of the H.K.C.C.; but there are also threo League cricket matches, and a Rugby icotball game, The Rest of the Club ought to be able to give the Interport toam (minus Lumsden, Cooper, and Lowe, a valuable tria) a good fight, but they would have been stronger still had the Blenheim not been in Mirs Bay.

It is a pity that the Interport team is not a fully representative one. A variety of circum- stances have combined to prevent ils being se.

The Associationists rest aftor their dofirst on Thursday by the Royal Army Temperance Association by I goal to nit.

The date of the bowling match between the Hongkong Club and the German Club is fast approaching. On Thursday the Hongkong Club team did very well in practice on their opponents' alleys, and indeed the impression is now in favour of a victory for them, though the Germans started warm favourites. At any rate the contest on the 11th and 12th instant promises excitement in bowling circtos.
