This has been a favourite green for many of the matches in the cnm- petitions on the Kowloon side, but on this occasion Club de Recreio failed to find the length of the green. The result was that Kon- loon Dock had a lend of 12-1 spon after the start, and their skip drew the jack many times when the other side were lying quite a number of shots. Club de Recreio made a great effort to overhaul their op ponents, but without success.

There was one change in the teams which were played the previous time. Goodman was brought in as No. 3 in place of Cullen, while Club de Recreio dropped Ribeiro and brought H. A. Alves as No. 1. teams and scores were:-

*FANTASTIC.""

A report to the effect that the Maharajab Jam Sahib of Nawana gar ("Ranji") had promised a series of rewards to his nephew E S. Dulcepsinhji, according to the number of run, he made in Test aatches, has drawn a remarkable protest from the famous veteran cricketer. He writes:-

estimated as a motor-car or a sum of £50, for every run or number of runs which he may make over and above a century, in the Test matches.

Need I say that the suggestion is as urifcanded as it is fantastic? I feel sure that my nephew, if the paragraph chance, to have caught hris gye, will be as hurt by the sug- gestion as I have been myself.

To play for England is of itself sufficient recompense; and I am proud to think that a second mem ber of my own house should have been selected for this distinction.

To suggest, as the paragraph in question does, that I should have entered into any such compact with my nephew is, I am sure you will agree, unfair to a ruling family of India which has always done its Sir.-May 1, as one who has al-beat to sustain, so far as lies in ways been an enthusiastic admirer its power, the best traditions of
