Shanghai Lawn Bowls Championship.
Monday evening, on the Shanghai Recreation Club Ground, the final next of the Championship was played off, the contestants being D, McAlister and 8. BL Wallace. The bowling was not quite up championship form, and the game was not nearly so closely contested ax had been expected. MeSlister led off with a 2 and 1, and at the sixth end the game was 4 all. Abthe 10th end the game was 8-5 in favour of Wallice, who took the next three ends with 1, 1, 2;, but at the lith end McAlister had his first ball right on the jack an the second touching the first (12-7). From that time forward Wallace made all the points, with the exception of the 14th end—in which McAlister scored 2—and finally iminer by 21 to 9. Wallace victory on points, but the score does not give much criterion of the evenness of the game, Although Mealister was behind on' the 21 ends that composed the game, he was very near on several occasions, and the result of this game could not be taken as any measure for handicap on future ocesions. Never theless, Wellxce bowled in splendid style nnd well deserved his victory.
