Johnny Burdick Given a Good Thrashing - Sam Laneford Keats Peter Jackson.

Pittsield, May 27.-The boxing car nival of the Pittsfield Athletic club, last night, in the Academy of Music, was the largest attended and most sue cessful from the spectators standpoint, held here this season. Fully 1000 men of all profess Ons and classes, from Albany to Springfield, and all surround ing towns, saw Tommy German add to his laurels and popularity here by out chasing Johnny Burdick in eight rounds, the referee stopping the bout. The scrap was good to look upon, but far from satisfactory. Referee Me Carthy ordered clean breaks in clinch- es, but for three rounds Burdick was conspicuous offender, and was repeat edly cautioned, while German was also careless. Honors were even in the first, second, third and fourth; the fifth was Burdick's, the sixth Germans and the seventh even.
 The exhibition was simply a series of clinches, with fast hard body punch ing noted only occasionally. German wrestling bit and hanging on hard at other times. Germans ducking was very clever. Burdick covered well un- Ill LUCKY puncn cduSllI HILL. III tnc eighth, after repeated clinches, Burdick was caught full on jaw with left up percut in clean break, and wentto the mat.

But far overshadow- ing the game itself in interest was the behaviour of the audience" pres ent, the spectacle of nearly 800 Holy oke enthusiasts roofing heart and soul for a visiting aggregation and cheer ing it's victory as sincerely as though the home team had won a decisive battle. being unprecedented in -the annals of baseball in this section, and moving even cigar-stand Indians to wonder. Not that the contest itself was devoid of incident, the expulsion of Corcoran being alone sufficient to provoke excitement, while the injury to Rogers and the unloosening of the fioodgates of Happy Connolly's elo- ouence still further suggested the summoning of the militia.
