The telegraph read 31-$-0. In Allison's next over, with but a single added to the score, he brought Pearson's innings of 11 to close. The last two batamen proved somewhat troublesome and added 18 to the score when Raws thorne got through Sherwin's defence, the innings closing at 5.15 pm for 8 or runs behind Shanghai's total

The analyses of Allison and Rawsthorne speak for themselves, the former with five wickets for 40 and the latter four for 28, each bowling 18 overs unchanged.

Shanghai resumed their second venture at 3.30 opening with Tait and Murray and the pair remained unbeaten at the close of play with 11 runs on the board.

SECOND DAY'S PLAY. Shanghai continued their innings on Friday, taking the field at 11.10. The weather was still hot, but a slight breeze made conditions more congenial than during the first day's play.

From Parson's first ball Murray' scored a single, but from the fifth ball of the over Tait skied a ball and was caught by Crawford-12-1-7. Pearson opened at the far end, his first prer being a maiden. Murray was missed in the slips by Roland of Parson's second ball. A four to leg by Merritt of Parsons, followed by another boundary hit by the same player of Parson, enlivened the proceedings to some extent, but after adding a single to his score he was stumped, the score being

The great Military Tattoo at Wem- bley gave a fine boom to recruiting in London, says a correspondeat of the China Express and Telegraph. The de- tachment of the 2nd Battalion of the East Surreys, ander the command of Major M.

M.C., from J. Minog Jersey, did its share ext dingly well.

The following appointment was made by the Admiralty on September 17th;- Payr-Comdr. G. T. Smyth, O.RE., to Cardi (on recommg.).

The total number of British destroyers, which was reduced from 180 to 179 by the recent crapping, is to be further re- duced to 137, as compared with over 300 American and over 100 Japanese destroy-

The new destroyers Amazon and Ambuscade are to be finished in April, 1926, but three or four years will elapse before any more are ready, as the des troyer replacement programme is not to be started until 1927-29.
