Crick et. I USK V. POXTYMISTER. I In delightful weather, Usk opened their season, oa Saturday, their opponents being Pontymister. The wicket proved a sift one. The visitor- won the toss and elected to send the U.-kites to the wickets first, A. G. Wallace aud J. Jenkins starting to the bowling of W. J. Lewis and G. I Lewis. A. leg-bye and a couple for Jenkins, was all that was scored in the first over, and, in the former truudler's second over. Wallace succumbed to a eftfeh by R >botham behind the sticks, after J contributing a single. Hill joined Jenkins, and ten was soon registered. The former cut a ball from W. J. Lewis splendidly, but a smart field saved a boundary. At lo, Jenkins snicked a ball into the hand* of Rosser at point, after making six. Rees filled the vacancy, and got a single first ball, and Hill with a beautiful drive to the boundary sent up 20. These two kept together till 32 runs had been scored, and then on the seventh ball of the over, given by the visiting umpire, Reen was taken behind the wickets. G. Edmunds followed, and without cracking his duck retired at 37. G. Lewis who was bowling at the bottom end, then came off the field, being ill. and G. ('lev^rley took up the trundling. W F. Roberts joined Hill, and with a couple of 2's sent up 40. At 42, Roberts was cleverly taken at mid- on, by Morris, from a hard drive after contributing 5. The Usk skipper then appeared, and registered a couple in his first over. Hill got yorked at 47, being top scorer with a well-played 26, and A. J. Thomns, who followed, rau himself out with no addition to the score. Parker and Edmunds, were now together, and the half century was signalled, but one run later the skipper was clean bowled by W. J. Lewis. Saunders opened his account with a couple, and Parker also got a couple from a good drive. Sixty went up, and with au addition of 2 singles, Saunders came a oropper to a ball from Cleverley, 62-9-8. Marfell, the last man, obtained a single, off Cleverley, and then Parker skied one to A. Cleverley at square leg, the innings closing for 63. Cleverley took 4 wickets for 15 runs; W. J. Lewis 4 for 28; and G. Lewis I for 17. Pontymister sent in Morris and Robotham to the bowling of Roberts and Wallace, and the former got a boundary off Roberts' last ball of the over. Robotham was caught by Marfell off Wallace before he had scored, and G. Lewis, who followed, scored a couple, and then fell to a very smart catch at point by G. Edmunds, 6-2-2. Cleverley joined Morris, but came down to a catch by Ross, off Wallace, one run later. Morris joined hi namesake, and came down first ball. Wallace had now taken 8 wickets for 1 run. G Oleverley went in, and 10 was sent np with a bye and a couple of singles. At 19, Cleverley was caught by Hill off Wallace, 19-5-6. W. J. Lewis followed, aDd the 20 went up with a single by Morris. At 23 Marfell re-placed Roberts at the bottom end. Wallace disturbed Morris after he had made 14, 26-6-14. Rosser joined W. J. Lewis and the 30 went up, but at 36 Rosser was bowled with a good ball from Wallace, 38-7-8. Horton followed, and Lewis took the score to 41, when the former came down to a catch by F. J. Edmunds off Marfell, 41.8.0. With Evane in runs came faster, and the half-century wae registered. Lewis sent up the 60 with a 4 off Wallace. Hill re- placed Marfell, and bis first ball was sent to the boundary which won the match, 70 went up with a couple by Lewis. Hill captured Evans after he had made 16, and Tyrell was ran out for nil. W. F. Roberts took one wicket for 8 runs; A. G. Wallace, 6 for 39; J. Marfell, 1 for 15; and F. Hill, 1 for 10. Score tTSK. A. G. Wallace, c P. Robotham, b W. J. Lewis i J. Jenkins, c G. Rosser, b W.

I Usk and Ebbw Conservators,…
Usk and Ebbw Conservators, i An ordinary meeting of the Board was held at the Castle Hotel, Brecon, on Thursday in last, week. Sir Shirley Salt, Bart., chairman, presided, and there were also present:-Lord Gltititisk, Colonel W. J. Morris, Colonel H. R. Jones Williams, Mr J. P. W. Gvrynne Holford, Cuprain Frank Travers, Major W. Williams, and Mr J. Straker (Abergavenny), Mr Hurchardt Ash ton, Mr R. C. Rich, Mr Howell Powell, Mr E. N. J oiieH, and Mr H. S. Lyue (clerk). The report of Mr Matthew William*, super- intendent water bailiff for the Monmouthshire intendent water bailiff for the Monmouthshire district for the past four months, showed that in his district the salmon uprwuiutf lIeason had buen successful. In March one fish, 19|tbs, was killed, and in April ten were taken. Salmon pink were usually numerous ill the river. The trout season had been a good one. Up to the present there had been plenty of fly on the water with a good rise. Mr Vaughan Powell, superintendent water bailiff for the Brecon district, reported that in his district the salmon spawning season had been g')od throughout; but, unfortunately, on the 18h of January the flood disturbed many spawning beds. A good number of fish that had run up into the Senny Bridge district died from fungus or disease and weakness after spawning. The river had been very full of young salmon of large síze- in fact, so numerous as to be quiie a nuisance to fly fishers for trout, one rod taking over 1U in a single day's fishing. The salmon fishing season so far had been very bad-a fact attributable to the long drought. On the 22nd March, Mr William Samuel killed a salmon of 201bd about two miles above Brecon, and on the 16th of April, Mr Grey took one of 12-ilbe in Seethrog waters. A great number of trout had been taken. The trout rod licences were going well, and in the Brecon district there was no outcry against the rise in the licence (from is to 215 6d), either by fishermen or the Town Council, or the County Council. He saw that the Board had been petitioned to extend the trout fishing season from the 2nd September to the 2nd October in each year, but in hi* opinion this would be a great mistake. He never yet saw a true sportsman fish for trout in September, and if the season was to be extended at all he should never recommend it to go beyond the 15th of September. The Clerk submitted petitions from a number of fishermen at Usk and Abergavenny, asking for au extension of the trout fishing season and a return to the condition of things which existed before the alteration, when the season extended fr >m February 15th tu October 1st. They desired to be placed on an equal footing with fishermen on the Wye. Under the altered arrangement the trout season on the Usk now begins on the 2nd of March and ends on September 2nd. In reply to Lord Olanusk, the Clerk said the close season on the Wye was from the end of October till about the middle of February. Mr S. N. Jones and Mr Rich thought there shoald be uniformity in this matter, the lalter pointing out that under the present arrangement Usk trout after the close season had commenced were caught and sold as Wye trout. It was resolved, on the motion of Mr S. N. Jones, seconded by Mr Straker, that the CLerk write the Wye Board of Conservators asking them if they would appomt a committee to consult on the matter with a committee of the Usk Board, con- sisting of Lord Glanusk and the Chairman (Sir Shirley Salt), and Vice-chairman. The Monmouthshire County Council wrote to the effect that it be an instruction to the repre- sentatives of that Council on the Board of Con- servators to oppose the proposal of the Board of Conservators to increase the salmon licences from £1 to £1 10. and trout licences from Is to 2s 6d. The Clerk said neither of the superintendent water bailiffs had received any complaint respect- ing the increase; and at present he could see no difference between the number of licences issued this year and last. Major Williams said it meant at Abergavenny that a man must pay £ 2 10a before he could kill a salmon, £1 of this going to the Abergavenny Council for the right to fish on their water. Mr Straker said he and his friend were instructed by the Monmouthshire County Council to oppose this increase, but it appeared that they were a day behind the fair, as the resolution for the increase had been passed at a previous meeting of the Board. from a return read by the Clerk it appeared that in the Monmouthshire district during March and April of this year only 10 salmon were killed as compared with 74 in the corresponding period of last year, the difference in weight being 2,20ilb as against 1.2201b last year. During the same montba two were taken in the Brcoon district at apiDIStllr" last year.
