EVENING NEWS."}
So ran the newsрpæer "Lucky Denton!" headline one stay recently when Yorkshire were playing at Taunton; and then. were sot out in order the three chances their batatano was said to have given in compiling his iftieth century in first-class cricket..
"Lucky Denton!" One has heard the senio expression so often in the last few years that you begin to think there must be something in it. But when the same batsman pulled a crooked ball into his wicket the other day before he had got a run should wo not have expected to hear | of "Unlucky Danton!" The critics were silent. Now I hold no brief for Denton or ang other aricketer. I am to believer in tack, good or bad, especially in games of skill.

There is lack, if you like, in the spin of a coin, and also in varia ions of weather during the progress of a first-cises match. Apart from". that, inok oute both ways, if it operates at all in cricket, no matter whether he be batsman, bowlor, or older.
But who is it that is perpetually complaining "Just my luck"; "I never of his bad look? have any lack," is the wail of the daffer appeal- ing in vain for sympathy. la aineteen cases ont of twenty bad luck is simply bad judgment, that ie,, bad play.
So in future, my dear young friend, hold your tonghe; study rather how you may in fatary woo successfully this coy malden.
I was watching a club match on Saturday afternoon, when a really good batsman was bowied first ball that would have been found nplayable by a Hayward or a Tyldesley.
Then what was the bateman's bad luck was the bowler's good lack. I don't beliova he could bare bowled another such ball had a £100 noto been forthcoming from a generous dike,
The otherday a Leicestershire bataman was dismissed without scoring in four consecative innings. What of luck in his case! He must be able to bat, else he would not be ohusan for a first-class' match. The explanation of his and similar failures, is that a good ball came along before he hat got his eys in.
The first ball is always more likely to prove fatal thau is the hunireland-first, for in the latter case a cricket ball begins to look as big as a football. Eren W.. has found a first ball too much for him.
Witness the Test Match at the Oval in 1890, when, but for a let-off by Harry Trott at point, our old champion would have got the spectacles for the first and only time in his first-class career, which lasted more than forty years.
Ent there are chauses and chances. I some. times ask myself, when watching cricket from the roaf of a pavilion or from the Pre-box, whether it is possible for me or my neighbours
to decide what is a fair onuco, For
you cannot properly judge the night of the as seen by the cricketers, when you do not occupy the same level as they.
OR IT MAY'.
A ball hit hard and high may suddenly swerve and so doceive the fielder. Cr, it may have a spin on it which defies the safest pair of hands. Or it may be out hard and low to a fielders left hand; or to may touch it with only the tips of his fugers; or it may come to band with such forco that nothing short of a miracle can ensure that it shall be hold.
How, too, can a spectator know for certain that s fast ball was first touched by the bat? Oh! it will be replied, by the bowler's shout "bold it." But is that always a reliable test f Dossn't a bowler frequently appeal for a verdict which the umpire will not give in his favour?
Of course there are many chances that are palpable to everybody. And the fauny thing about cricket is that a brilliant fielder, like Tratt, will sometimes miss the softest catches.
Missed catches, however, are all in the game. If every chance was accepted cricket would not be worth playing. Flakes and accidents keep the game alive. Suppose a bateman never made a mishit, nor played under a ball, nor held a crooked bat.
And suppose a bowler never bowled a bad- length bail, nor one off the wicket. And sup- pose a fielder never mulled a catch nor let the ball go past him from a hard, low drive. Then in that case we shall have perfect batting, perfect borling, and perfect fielding; and that would produce a deadlock.

GREAT POWERS FRIENDLY TO NEW PEACE LEAGUE,
WILL, ALL THE WORLD COME IN?
All the leading nations of the world may agree to sign a single arbitration treaty, in con- sequence of the preparation of the draft of the Anglo-American Treaty by Mr. Knox, the Sec- retary of State.
Such united action hos, according to a Wash- ington despatch to the New York World, boon suggested for discussion by the Diplomatic Corps at the Federal capital. The idea is said to have originated with Germany.
The World adds that the leading Powers are friendly to the proposal for the equalisation of all arb
arbitration treati-s, and that Mr. Ku favours the proposal that no provision shall be male for compulsory arbitration. The chief object of a single treaty for all the nations is the automatio avoidance of technical differences by the elimination of varying provisions occur- ring in separate agreements, which might cansa conflicting theorice in the settlement of inter- national diferences.
World correspondent
to the According Mr. Bryce, the British Ambassador. M Jusserand, the French Ambassador, Conut Bernstorf, the Gorman Ambassador, and Mr. Ucuids, the Japanese Ambassador, will outer on the proposal, it is not known whether the Powers concerned will set in conjunction with Mr. Knox thronghout, or will draw up an alternative draft to Mr. Knox's proposition as

Yes, there are chances and chances, as remarked before. Many catches are accidental. W. G. when fun America, ont a ball hard to point, who happened to be so carpaleat that that was the only place in the field where ho could possibly be of any use; bu might stop the ball with his body.
One interesting point to be discussed in con- nection with the world wide treaty will be whether naval and military officials should be permitted to join any arbitration commission.. The World asserts that there is a decided influ- ence against recognition of the two services in- connection with arbitration.
Well, as it happened, he did; that cat of WAS SUPPLIED TO THE HOUSE OF G.'s catching him fall in the pit of the stomach,
