In the hour and a half match Burke won the first fal in 47 minutes with a toe hold. The second fall went to Karasiok in 19 minutes with a headlock that practically put Burke in an un conscious condition. When the two sturdy wrestlers returned to the mat there was but six minutes of time remain ing and that was not enough for either to score a fall. The attendance which was only fair until the doors were thrown open to everyone without charge when the hall became fairly well filled and those who paid no ad mission showed t'heir apprecia tion of the clean sport by throw ing in a voluntary collection which helped to meet the ex penses. The preliminaries were inter esting and showed considerable skill on the parts of several who took part. These events consist ed of two boxing and two wrest ling numbers. The spectators, among whom there1 were a number of women, pronounced the entire entertain ment as a clean and interesting show and one that merrited a crowded house. It is expected that another wrestling match will be staged in the near future with Burke matched against some man of note, possible the noted Hindu wrestler Sin Rlngh, who is now in the Bay region of California and who Is classed high as to ' skill and also lor clean, clear-cut port.
