The number of entries was one hundred and fifteen, ninety- one horses started for the different races, and £ 747 was paid to the winners without in- cluding the cups. ANGLING. SUMMER FISHING. " Confessed from yonder slow- extinguished cloud, All ether softening, sombre evening takes Her wonted station in the middle air— A thousand shadows at her back. First this She sinks on earth, then that of deeper dye Steals soft behind; and then a deeper still, In circle following circle, gathers round To close the face of things. A fresher gale Begins to wave the woods and stir the stream. Sweeping with shadowy gusts the fields of corn; Whilst the rail clamours for her running mate. Wide on the thirsty lawn, as swells the breeze, A whitening shower of vegetable down ; Amongst the crooked lanes, on every hedge The glowworm lights his gem, and through the dark A moving radiance twinkles." During the midsummer heats eventide is the best time to fish for trout. Morning is good until the sun is above the clouds or mist, which, at this season, is but for a short time, and when once the pools begin to brighten and sparkle you may put up your tackle until the cool evening breeze ripples their surface. I should recommend my readers to fish the smaller streams, the hill burns, and more particularly the lakes, as during the latter part of June and all July the larger rivers do not afford very good fly fishing. If you do fish the° larger rivers for trout, fish late in the afternoon, the evening, and even night, up to eleven o'clock. Just before sun down, a small, pale, dun fly thrown close to the bank, or under bushes, will kill well. The pale evening dun is made— Pale yellow silk for body, starling wing feather for wings ( the feather should be from the young bird, and light in colour), legs of light dun hackle. If the water is sufficiently low to admit your walking, you may by so doing fish under the overhanging bushes of the river banks; it is in such spots large trout lurk, waiting for any fly or insect that may fall from the boughs, and I have often killed a fine basket of trout, even the brightest days, by wading up stream, and cast- ing an alder fly under the banks and brushwood. Another excellent fly to fish with in this way during the day is the dark mackerel. This fly is very like the green drake in shape and size, and is said to be the metamorphosis of the black or grey drake. I cannot think this to be the case, as the mackerel makes its appearance some time after the green drake or May fly has disappeared, and the fly remains on the water for some weeks. If the mackerel was the metamorphosis of the green drake, it would appear directly after the drake, and would then be very short lived. I have also seen the mackerel fly on waters where the May fly or green drake is seldom, if ever, seen. How- ever, it certainly is a magnificent fly, and I have often killed with the artificial mackerel on waters where the natural fly is never seen. It is an excellent lake fly, and in Canada I have killed with it on the lakes at all seasons. The dark mackerel is made— Body, dark mulberry floss silk; wings, mallard mottled brown feather from the back; legs, black hackle; tail ( if you will have a tail) very long, and made of three hairs from a red dog. The mackerel is a large fly, but may be made to suit the water. For evening fishing after the sun is down the coachman is a capital provider; in the early part of the evening make him small, and later use a larger fiy. The coachman is made— Body, peacock's harl; wings, white duck's feather, or, what I think better, the tips of two small white hackles; legs, red cock's hackle. There is no better evening fly than this on almost any water; you may fish with it until dark; then put on a white moth, made— Body, white ostrich harl; wings, white feather of any bird, aquatic the best; legs, white hackle. This fly should be made large. Some prefer a brown, and some a black moth; but, speaking from my own experience, I have always found the white moth the best. When night fishing never use more than one fly and the strongest trout gut, for you take the largest fish of the water night fishing, and when you do get hold of one of these ancients it is a case of " Pull troutie, pull Piscator;" out he must come; not an inch of line can he be allowed, for if you " give him an inch he will take an ell," and as the rivers are now full of strong weed, he will very soon rush to some favourite haunt, from which neither art nor strength will dislodge him. The instant you feel you have hooked your fish give him the butt, and let him play a short time on the rod; fish hooked at night are usually hooked firmly, and if your tackle is good you may hold a very strong fish in this way until he becomes exhausted, when you can land him at the most convenient spot. I know some trout, and even salmon fishermen, who always " butt" their fish as soon as hooked; and it is wonderful how soon a large fish is killed by a very pliant rod, when tackled in this style. I re- member fishing a pool in a large river in Canada. I hooked an eighteen- pound salmon juBt at the edge of a fall. If the fish went over the fall he was lest, as it was not possible for me to follow him. I therefore " butted'' the fish, and expected he would break away every instant. But no; with every rush, every bound, the pliant rod bowed its head, bending down to my hand, and regained its straightness as the salmon relaxed his efforts, until I was able to draw him out of danger. I also remember hooking a fine fish in a very heavy rapid, down which he took at a furious rate, I was following the fish over very rough and slippery rocks, when I tripped and came down a regular " burster." I managed to keep my rod in an upright position, but the line twisted round the handle of the reel, and of course brought the salmon up " all standip. g.'' The line sung like a harp string, and I thought every instant something must give way. No! there was the fish hang- ing like a log in the white water, and I " came up smiling," slipped the line oft the handle, and as the fish was considerably done by this rough handling, I very soon gaffed liim. It will not do to " butt" a heavy fish severely with a stiff rod; he would most certainly break either the hook, the line, or his own mouth ; with a pliant rod that plays down to your hand you may take great liberties with your fish. But to return to trout fishing at night. The largest trout roam at night in search of food; they lie in some sheltered haunt during the day, and this haunt is generally at the bottom of the pool. At night they move up to the head of the pool, and on to the shallows, in pursuit of gudgeon, minnows, any small fish, or large flies; and when they are thus on the roam they will take freely, and even close to you. Throw your fly to the opposite bank, and let it float down across the stream to your own bank. Do not be in a hurry to draw it out, and as the fly comes across the stream give it a quiet motion by lifting and sinking the point of your rod. If a fish takes the fly you will feel a sort of " sensation tug." I have told you what to moss and an ample supply of worms. This bag is attached to your button at the right side of your coat, so as to be readily got at. In baiting the hook place two good- sized, or three smaller, worms on the hook, thus— insert the hook into the mouth of the worm ( pleasant for worm), and run the hook down about a quar- ter of the length of the worm, bring the point of the hook out, and run the worm up on to the gut; take another worm, insert the hook as before, and run the worm right up to the head of the shank, covering the whole hook; now bring the first worm down on the second, and your lure is complete. When worm fishing in fine and clear water, you must be very particular as to your bait, not a particle of the hook ought to appear; if the point of the hook protrudes through the worm, you may as well throw your old boots in as your sup- posed tempting luxury ; no trout of high caste will look at it. In thick water, just after'a flood, you need not be quite so particular, but even then the man who baits his hook perfectly will kill most fish. One thing has always appeared to me as singular. We are obliged to be most particular in covering the hook when bait fishing, or we cannot expect success; in fly fishing half the hook is bare, and when spinning nine or ten bright hooks are not un- usually displayed, and yet fish will dash at a spinning bait with all these hooks visible. It may be said that a worm bait is stationary and the spinning passes rapidly through the water : but this is not always the case. Sometimes you spin slowly, and your worm is passed down a rapid current— a very killing process with regard to salmon, and often for trout. With the fly the fish has ample time to examine his supposed food, so that I am still at a loss to account for the fact, and if any of my readers can en- lighten me on the point I shall be obliged. I have much to say on bottom, dapping, and other piscatorial dodges applicable to the capture of fish at this season, but I have run out so much line that for the present I must reel up.

ASTON CBOSS GROUNDS.— The All England Half- mile Han- dicap ( the proprietor of the grounds giving £ 8 as a first prize, 30s as second, and 10s as third) came off on Monday and Tuesday, June 22 and 23, and it is with great pleasure that we have to re- port that there is no appearance in the old hardware town of Birmingham, or in the immediate districts around it, of a fall off in patrons or supporters of pedestrianism, when we state that up- wards of 1,000 persons paid admission to the grounds on Monday, and upwards of 400 on Tuesday, to witness the above handicap. The proprietor has further improved the running ground by fixing strong posts, and roping the straight run home. The weather on both days was most propitious for out- door amusements. For the above handicap there were 61 entries, and 38 accepted. Mr T. Clulee was the Btarter, and Mr Coates referee. At half- past three o'clock the bell rang for Lot 1, for which the following men were placed on the card: W. Jones of Worcester 60 yards start, C. Deacon of Sutton 75, G. Mordyke 78, J. Watts 78. The three first men not putting in an appearance Watts ran the distance over.— Lot 2 : De Grass 58, 1; G. Eaves of Minworth 78, 2 ; A. Crudging- ton of London 54 and W. Sheppard 78 did not appear. The men got off well together, Eaves keeping the lead for two laps and three quarters round ( four laps round for the half mile), when De Grass, who had gradually crept up, passed his man at the third lap, and Eaves, seeing he had no chance of winning, gave in, De Grass finishing leisurely.— Lot 3: A. Warner 74, 1; H. Appleby 68, 2 ; T. Newbold 58 ( did not appear). This was a well- contested heat, Warner leading the whole distance, Appleby not having a chance, Warner winning by three yards. 7 to 4 agst Warner winning the handicap ( taken).— Lot 4: T. Cooper ( a well- known Birmigham Boniface) 80,1 ; J. Clarke 56, 2 ; W. Dodd 78, 3 ; J. Jackson of Tipton 70 ( absent). This was a well- contested heat, Cooper keeping the lead the whole distance, and winning by four yards ; in the first lap round Dodd's pump came off, yet he in the most plucky manner ran the distance out, keeping close to Cooper for three laps, when Clarke passed him; a good race home between Cooper and Clarke for second place; Dodd a good third. Betting: 2 to 1 on Clarke.— Lot 5. C. Smith ( alias Mills) 68, 1; E. Cooper 66, 2; W. Beet ( a lad) 78 ; S. Barker of London 40, did not put in an appearance. Mills oaught Beet at the first lap round. Cooper also gave place to him. Beet gave in at the third lap round. At three laps and a half Cooper followed his example, Mills running in an easy win- ner.— Lot 6. H. Dodd 60, 1; G. Hartshorn of Ison Green 58, 2 ; J. Win spar 72, 3 ; J. Weston 76 ( absent). At the first lap round Dodd had passed Winsper, Hartshorn close up. At the turn for the second lap the men were all of a ruck ; a severe race between Dodd and Hartshorne. On passing the referee at the third lap they were shoulder to shoulder ; at three laps and a half Dodd spurted forward and got the lead, and Hartshorne at the straight run home gave in, Dodd winning easily.— Lot 7. C. Catling 76,1 ; H. Gurley 40, 2 ; C. Barrett 75, 3 ; J. Beet 74. Beet and Barrett ran close together the first lap round, Gurley every stride gaining ground. At the second lap Beet had the lead. After passing the referee at the third lap Barrett cannoned against Beet, knocking him over, Catlin also, who was close up, coming in contact, but he quickly disengaged himself and dashed ahead. Gurley, who had been running in beautiful style, was close up, and before Beet could get out of the way Gurley ran against him, throwing him- self out, as he lost ground, otherwise there is no doubt from his style of running he would have won his heat. Catlin improved the advantage gained, and ran in first, four yards before Gurley. Betting : 3 to 1 on Gurley.— Lot 8. T. Brown 54, 1; D. Taylor of Coventry 52, 2 ; T. Browning 64, 3 ; J. Weston of Emscote 64, 0. Weston and Browning ran together till the turn of the second lap, when Browning took the lead. Brown, who was close up at the third lap, dashed forward, got the lead, and won easily ; Taylor came in second, Browning third. 2 to 1 on Brown.— Lot 9. J. Neary of Hulme 49, 1; T. Mordyke 54, 2; D. Popwell 54 ( ab- sent). Mordyke contested it well with Neary for two laps round before Neary was able to collar him, when Neary spurted forward and won by three yards. 2 and 3 to 1 on Neary. The winners of the above heats drew the same evening for places, and came to their marks as follow on Tuesday, at four o'clock, to run off, viz, Lot 1: A. Warner 74 yards start, 1; De Grass 58, 2; J. Watts 78 ( did not appear in time). At the signal the men got away at a good pace, Warner keeping the lead for a lap and a half round. On passing the referee for second lap De Grass got in front for a short distance. A well- contested race to the straight run for the third lap. When at the turn De Grass fouled Warner, knocking him against a tree. Warner stopped. De Grass ran the distance, and claimed the heat. As is usual a noisy discussion ensued, which was ended by the referee ordering both men to run again, when at once the men again got to their marks. Warner dashed off at a food pace, and De Grass, seeing he had no chance of winning, gave up at the quarter of a mile.— Lot 2 brought T. Brown 54,1; C. Catiin 76, 2 ; T. Cooper 80, 3. This heat was well contested, Cooper keeping the lead for three laps round, when Cooper and Catlin ran shoulder to shoulder for the next half lap, when Brown, who had been wait- ing his time, dashed ahead, got the lead, and went in a winner three yards before Catlin, Cooper well up. Even betting, Brown over the two.— Lot 3 : This was a walk over by Neary 49, neither Dodd at 60 nor Mills 68 appearing. At half- past five o'clock the bell rang for the deciding heat, when Brown 54, 1; Neary 49, 2 ; Warner 74 appeared. Betting: 2 to 1 on Neary. Warner went away at a good pace, and kept the lead for two laps and a half, when Brown wrested it from him, and at the third lap Neary had also given him the go by, and catching Brown just previous to the straight run home a close race ensued, Brown, completely exhausted, running in a winner, according to the decision of the referee, by a foot; Warner a good third. Brown therefore re- ceived the first prize of £ 8, Neary ( second) of £ 1 10s, Warner ( third) of 10s. Average betting: 3 to 1 against Neary, 4 to 1 against Gurley, and 6 to 1 against any other. T.

A large lob worm, on a strong bait- hook, thrown across the stream and let float to your bank is a killing lure. A live minnow I think even more deadly. I do not think night- fishing quite a sportsman- like way of killing fish; but there are some waters in which it is hardly possible to kill a fish during the hot bright days at this season of the year, and it is a real satisfaction to circumvent those cunning old dodgers the menarchs of the stream, to say nothing of the dainty dish they make, now in full and prime condition after being gorged with the May fly. Never fish in company with another rod at night; a companion is always agreeable as well as useful, but don't let him carry a rod. 1 once had a large hook whipped into my eyelid— a close shave for my eye- by a friend fishing near me at night. During the warm weather of June and July trout take the worm well; in fact, the weather must be warm and the water very considerably heated before the fish will feed well on the worm ; and I believe that with all ground bait the same fact will hold good. Trout are never in condition, or fine condition, until they have been well glutted with various sorts of flies— a week of the May fly will do more to fatten them than a month of any other of the epheme- ridje— all( i this is the reason the trout in rocky streams are so sel- dom in the same splendid order as those found in rivers running through rich land ; the beds of these streams are alive with water nympha, and untold millions of flies swarm on the surface ; it is on such waters the trout becomes really in fine condition. The beds of rocky streams do not breed the same food, and the fly is scarce on the surface, so that you seldom see the fish from such streams bright and fat; they are usually dark in colour and lanky. When trout have become sated with the fly they seem to look for some more substantial food, and the worm, the minnow, the crab, and other baits are more killing than the fly. As I have said, trout seldom take the worm well save during warm weather, and when the water is in a high state of tempera- ture. I don't think I every had a really good day's sport witli the worm when the wind was blowing cold from the north, and the water chilled my limbs as I waded the stream. The best time for worm fishing is when the mild south wind is gently stirring the heavy foliage; a bright and warm sky, and indeed even a hot sun is agreeable— in fact, just such weather as would be termed a " lovely day." There are several Borts of worm used for bait, but I think the" red head is the best. This worm is found in rich ground, such as ground where a manure heap has been placed, or on any highly manured ground— that is to say, ground which has been enriched by farm yard or stable manure. Those lands mixed with lime and artificial manure do not yield many worms. The red head is a bright pink, nearly the whole length of the worm, and when cleansed possesses a most attractive appearance to the fish. gles— the total 131. Rain now put a stop to the day's play. On Saturday Jackson and Willsher commenced the shooting, and could not be looked at. Six wickets fell for 3 runs, and ten for 21. Mr E. Rowley made things look better by staying and playing a good innings of 21 by four threes, a two, and singles. M'Intyre and Mr Rutter hit away for their runs, and made the total look respectable, leaving the Eleven 52 runs to make to win, which task they accomplished with the loss of six wickets. Greenwood and M'Intyre bowled very straight indeed; Hayward was in a full hour for 3 runs; and Carpenter had to appear with 1 to tieand 2 to win; he made the required number, the Eleven winning with four wickets to fall.

Score: HEALTH OF THE METROPOLIS.— In the week ending June 20, the births of 938 boys and 941 girls, in all 1,879 children, were registered in London. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 1853- 62 the average number ( corrected) was 1,864. At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich the mean height of the barometer in the week was 29" 705 inches, school, and even some of the younger. It is one of the most beautiful worms we have, being ringed with alternate stripes of red and white, but it has a most offensive smell, a fetid, yellow matter oozing from its body on the least touch, so that baiting with the little reptile is anything but agreeable. Brandlings are not so numerous as other worms. They are chiefly found in dung heaps, old hot beds, and such places. It is a very tender- skinned creature, and for that reason, as well as its stinking pro- pensities, it is no favourite of mine ; and I do not think, with all due deference to my elders, that it is so great a favourite with trout as was generally believed. The lob worm or dew- worm is not usually used for trout fishing, but it is well known to the salmon angler, and is at this season about the best lure that can be used for his capture. The lob worm is found in almost any rich and light soil, grass lands in particular. It may be seen when the dew is on the grass, even- ing, night, or morning. The best time to take the lob worm is at night; a lantern is necessary. The worm will be seen stretched out full length : a quick hand is requisite, for the tail of the worm is always in his den, and the instant the worm is alarmed, in he pops, like lightning. Though not generally uBed for trout, the tail of a lob worm is a very good bait in thick water after a flood. A very good trouting bait is the button worm, and by some it is thought superior to the red head. It is found chiefly in gravelly soils and old garden mould, and may be known by its habit of coiling itself up in the form of a ball. It is also free from that knot general in almost all other worms. There are other worms, but the above are those usually sought by anglers, and of these I give the red head or the button worm the preference. Many anglers take great pains preparing their worms previous to baiting with them. Now I do not consider any preparation necessary; and, in- deed, I think the sooner the worm is used after he is taken from the ground the more tempting he is to Master Troutie. A fine fresh worm no doubt has a considerable scent ( we know the brandling has to our cost), and fish seek their food under water very much by scent. To keep worms must destroy the natural scent; you may, as you suppose, render them more attractive to the eye of the fish by scouring them; they certainly are more transparent and brilliant, for there is nothing in their internals, but, save that they are more tough and stand more wear and tear on the hook, I do not believe that any art can render a worm more " taking" than it is in its fresh and natural state. However, " doc- tors differ," and I do not wish to pit my opinion against the very many excellent anglers who fancy that they improve their lure by putting the worm through a regular course of diet. Not a hundred years ago very good anglers supposed it ne- cessary to taint all these baits with certain strong scents. Bruised ivy was a favourite scent for the worm, and the oil extracted from the thigh of the heron was a " certain cure." I may be wrong, but I look upon all these unnatural attempts to render the bait more attractive upon a par with the juvenile idea that spitting on the bait makes it " lucky." If you wish to pre- pare your worms in the most " artful" manner, you must get some moss— that which is found in damp boggy ground, and is long in the fibre, and free from earth, is the best. If your moss is not clean and free from earthy substances, wash and dry it. Before putting your worms into the moss, place them in a basin of water for a short time, take them out and let them remain on a dry cloth until they have recovered the effects of their bath. They will now be clean, and ready to place in the moss. If the moss is perfectly dry there will not be anything for the hungry little reptiles to feed on, consequently they will very soon become bright and transparent. They will not live long in this state as a matter of course, but you may feed your worms on various diets, and by that means greatly improve their attractive powers— at least so say the learned on worm fishing. Bole arme- nian is a favourite food to train the worm on. Mixed with milk it is sprinkled over the moss, and the hungry creatures imbibe the mixture, which is supposed to give them a reddish cast. There are very many other pigments with which worms are supposed to be made more brilliant, but really I have so little faith in these " artful dodges" that I must be excused naming them. My advice is, if you wish to fish with the worm, get a good supply of redheads, and use them as soon as possible. I do not believe you can improve on nature. The best way to carry your worms is in a flannel bag, and it should be made large enough to contain a considerable portion of Both men had actively trained for the event, and were brought to scratch looking in first- rate condition. Wood was made the favourite, and so confident were his backers of success, that they laid 3 to 1 on him. At the start Wood got away with full a yard the best of it, which he gradually increased, Darell never having a chance of winning, Wood finishing by running in a winner by two yards.

The men who competed were R. Mills of Radcliffe and E. Meadowcroft of Bury, they having agreed to wrestle two out of three back falls, in the Lancashire style, for £ 10 a side. Probably owing to the fact that one of the above men is a brother of J. Meadowcroft, the present holder of the champion wrestling belt given by Mr Hayes, of the Copenhagen Grounds, Manchester, the Bury athlete was installed the favourite, odds of 7 to 4 being laid on him ; but many persons declined, and others were slow, to make wagers on the event. Shortly after the speci- fied hour the contest was commenced, and in the first round, which was prolonged for upwards of an hour, Meadowcroft, in whose favour it ended, failed to display those tactics which his relative possesses in an eminent degree, his opponent ( Mills) also lacking activity at times. In the second bout, however, Mills ac- quitted himself better, seeming more quick in action and firm in grasp, and in less than 10 minutes he caused the game to become " one and one,'' by placing Meadowcroft on his back. After the final round had been continued for more than half an hour Mea- dowcroft, who in this bout wrestled with considerable determina- tion, laid fast hold of Mills, again threw him, and thus won the match. During the contest the winner was esquired by his bro- ther ( the champion), and Mills was waited upon by J. Cross of Ashton- under- Lyne. EARNSHAW AND WILLIAMSON.— Mr Holden has now received £ 210s eachfrom J. Earnshaw of Thongsbridgeand A.

The only point worth noticing in the match was a peculiarly rapid yet unsuccessful attempt of the latter to put down a man.

Marshall's bitch Flora, of Gil- dersome, which had previously won seven matches, never yet hav- ing been defeated in rabbit coursing, and Stead's dog Brannan of Horsforth. On this occasion it was by many thought the bitch could not run in form at the weight, 15| lb. On their being weighed J. Wild of Gorton, who officiated for J. Holden of Man- chester, who had been appointed stakeholder and referee, re- marked that he was surprised at the dogs being so equal in weight, for a halfpenny would draw the scale either way with the dogs in them. Not less than £ 300 was laid on the event. The Horsforth party, who appeared confident of their dog, were anxious for the odds, which were 5 to 4 at the opening, and increased as the match progressed. When they had run six courses, the bitch hav- ing obtained the whole of them, odds were then laid that the dog would not secure one rabbit. The next was a splendid course, and, to the surprise of many, the dog secured the rabbit, which had never a turn. One remark was bandied about respecting She biitch, which appeared verified in one of the courses, that she could turn as quick as the rabbit, for in the course alluded to she in the turn mouthed the rabbit, and in doing so fell upon her back with the rabbit secured in her mouth, the dog running over both. The dog only obtained the seventh rabbit. W. Ellis of Idle is open to match his bitch Polly to run the best of from 21 to 31 courses against any other dog or bitch of 19jlb weight, for any sum from £ 25 or more. A match can at any time be made at the Brown Cow Inn, Idle. KNUR AND SPELL.— Mr Wool foot has received arti cles and £ 1 a side for a match between J. Hardy of New Wort ley and W.

WIMBLEDON v CHRIST CHURCH, OXFORD. This return match was played at Wimbledon on Saturday, June 20, and ended in the defeat of Christ Church in one innings. The ground was level and true, but excessively dead, a circum- stance much in favour of Wimbledon. Mr Morres played a capital innings. The bowling and fielding on both sides were good.

This match was played at Harrow on June 20. Time did not permit of its being played out, in which case the Harlequins, owing to their strong batting talent, would probably have won. Mr Walker's " slows" were again unaccountably fatal to the School, who deserve great credit for their bowling and general fielding. The large number of " extras" given in the second innings by the Oxonians is solely attributable to Mr Mitchell's " extra fasts" and the bad light „ Score: HARROW SCHOOL. lst inn 2d inn C. L.

WALMER GARRISON v OFFICERS 9TH BRIGADE ROYAL ARTILLERY. Good fellows, a good wicket, and a warm afternoon, combined to produce a most pleasant day's cricket at Waimer on June 11. The Garrissn went in, and scored 84 in three hours, then " tiffin,'' and then the gunners were polished off for only 75, and then the sun got low, and Campbell's bowling got high, which rather bothered the fusiliers of sorts, and they all went out for 37, and then it was 20 minutes to seven, so time was called. One or two of the players came to the conclusion that Law X. was " one of those things no fellah could understand." On the part of R. A., the I. G. stopped A 1; there were some " Smart" catches made also. Bcore: GARRISON. lst Inn 2d inn Capt Waller, b Scott 12 b Campbell 14 H. O. Lloyd, c Milner, b Campbell — 13 c and b Campbell 0 B.
