ORIOKET.
EnEiishnen Far Ahead OF tho new Yorker. In
the First InpinE.

The English crickoters, under tho leadership
of p. F. Warner, made their initial bow to an
American audience yesterday ut Staten Island,
and although there were many things disap-
pointing about the play tho 1900 spectators
seemed to enjoy the exhibition. Ono OF the sur
prises was tho failure of O.. L. Jessop to show
some OF his hard-batting procllvitics, but tho
catch which dismissed him brought down tho
house. ]. Adam, who was away out on the
boundary when tho little Worcestershire man
'skied" tho ball In his direction, had to run
nearly fifty yards before no could Just get his
hands on the sphere, and when the ball stuck
there tho young Manhattan man received an
ovation.
H.. D. G. Leveson. Cover did by far the best
batting OF the day. Ho took no liberties with
the bowling. for his placing of short-pitchod
balls to leg wns done with so much oase that
there appeared to be no danger about these
usually risky strokes. j. II. Head also played
nicely. 2. +. Warner contributed a steady In
ming, and u. II. Marriott scored 81 rather freely.
N. II. Cobb and +. +. Kelly both bowled re-
markedly well, and the Englishmen's total Of
1876 was thought mono too big for the homo team
to face.
The New Works sent In c. II. Clarke and J. B.
Curran, the two New Jersey cracks, to start tho
run. getting, and from the manner in which play

men exhibited the utmost confidence against
the fast bowling Of g. l.. Jessop and the slow
Clarke was bowled by Bull. Hurditch, the next
man, was responsible for the downfall Of Cur
rams wicket. for when the latter called him to
run he stood his ground and tho Lcinster man
was run out. Hurditch might have had to sac
rihce his own wicket had he attempted to run,
and he Immediately showed II was an important
one by starting in to hit fours with great rapidi-
ty. His score reached only 10, however. and.
with Cobb the only other donble-figure scorer,
tho inning WAS over for 70. This was only two
runs below the necessary 100 which would have
compelled q follow on.
Tho Englishmen then went in for their second
attempt and they lost g.. /: Jessop and J. n.
Head then played out time. the score having adj
vanced to 80 when stumps were drawn. Play
Will DO continued this morning at IL o'clock,
and. in order TO induce the New Workers to put
forth their best efforts, p. q. b. Wonham will
present q handsome silver cup to the highest
scorer. 1t has been arranged that should tho
game end to-day. a one.inning match will DO

Thomas Jackson and Arthur Ridway, col
ored, appeared before Judge Mills this
morning to answer a charge of murderous
assault committed upon WillamP P. Johnson.
1t appeared that Jackson at one time stood
high in the favor of a dusky maiden living
on street, between Four-and-a-half and
Sixth streets.
Recently Johnson supplanted Jackson
in the affections of the girl in question and
the latter has been hunting for his rival
eversince With Ridway as an aid Jackson
went To the house of the girl on Monday
evening and found Johnson there. He en-
tered the house, and while Railway held the
complainant, Jackson belabored him with
a bed Stat, battering him up generally.
Judge Mills let Ridway off, but Jackson
was not SO fortunate. He was given six
months in Jail.
