CAMBRIDGE CRICKET CLUB.

Thk annual meeting of the above Club was held at Fawcett's Masonic Hotel, Cambridge, on Monday evening. There was a good attendance of members, with Dr. Moon in the chair. The. minutes of the previous meeting were duly confirmed, and the balance-sheet, which showed a credit of £L 8s 4d, was adopted. The following officers were elected :—President, Dr. Waddington; vieti-prpsidonts, Dr. Moon and W. S. Stewart Es:j. ; secretary and treasurer, Mr K. Hill; committee, Messrs M Stubbing Lbii. Bull, J. 1). Ainaboldie and M. McDeimott; captain, Mr Harry Wilson. The Club has a quantity of material and tools, in fact everything requisite for a really good Club, and the outlay will, therefore, be very trilling. It was resolved that the subscription for th« current seasiin be 5s instead of 10s as last year ; and the chartre for youths under 17 years of age was tixed at 2s (id. This, it is hoped, will induce a number of yoiincr cricketers to join the Club. A hearty vote of thanks was passed to Mr W. S. Stewart—who is now iifc (ireymouth—for this great interest lie displayed, and the trouble ho had t:iken in the Clnb during past seasons, and regret was expressed that he had left the district. An equal hearty vote of thanks was tendered to Mr James Taylor for the nsu of his roller. It is few farmers who would lend their implements, year after yum , , in the manner in which Mr Taylor has done, and the Club are greatly indebted to him. The bowling and batting trophies, a lull and but, of the best quality, givon by Messrs W. S. Stewart and Mr McDerinntt, respectively, were won, the former by Mr W. Park, and the latter by Mr H. Wilson. Mr Park hits kindly offered a ball, and Mr McDermott another bat, for the best bowling and batting averages during the present season. The opening day will be on October 13th, when it is hoped there will be a good attendance of members. A voto of thanks to Dr. Moon for presiding closed the mooting.
