Hunt wore the first to play, the former giving his opponent half fifteen, i.e., 15 every alternate game. Tho scores were ; —WilsonHimt, o—2, 2—o, o—l.0 —1. Wilson therefore won by 14 games to 12. S. Chambers and E. Porter then played, the Litter giving 30 each game and 40 every fourth. At first Porter looked like winning, but in the second set Chambers reversed the order of things, and finally won by 13 games to 11, the scores being : Chambers-Porter, 3—o, o—o, s—l. In the final set Wilson will have to gjve Chambers a similar handicap to the one hereeeived from Porter. It will probably be played next Saturday.
