Two Raines in the Alcock inter-club championship were played , last nißlit. The first was between Tucker, of the Federal Club, mid Wiikeni, of tlio Uouiinioii Club, and was won by the former with the comfortable margin of 108 points to spare. J'luy at no staue of the game was interesting, except, perhaps, in Tucker's last effort, when that player ran out with a break of '25 just as ho eeenied entiled down with ideal position left. Tucker's best breaks were 25 unfinished, and two others of 20 each. The. next game was between Key, of tho Working lien's Club, and Suyer, of the Kelnnioil .Soldiers' Club. Neither player seined at home, and very considerable safety piny was indulged in, with the result that at times _ mailers were a iilllc wearying. Ceriainly the. balls ran very I Mil for both, and rrmd p'.nv at limes added few points to the. Biiores. Bad luck towards the finish held Siiyer back, and l\>v manawl lo get lo his points 20 ahead. Rayer'e best breaks were 2!), 2ii, and 20, and Key's 2". To-night: Tucker will pluy Harrison and Brice will piny his clulimale, Corson.
