STORY OF MILLER.
MATSUDA MATCH
Remarkable Exhibition Is Witness
ed by Duluth Fans
Says the Duluth Herald:

There have been some great wres-
Ting matches in this city during tho
past two or three years. but IL is ex-
tremely doubtful If the contest OF last
night between Walter Miller and Mat
suda has ever been surpassed for
speed, spectacular Incidents and some
ol the prettiest wrestling that could
be- crowded into an evenings enter
Iainment. The little Pole won in
straight falls, but he was forced To go
to the limit To get the Oriental.
The first bout ended at the conclu-
sion of 90 minutes and 10 seconds. a
scissors TO the head and "a toe hold
causing the Jap to forfeit the fall. The
second and deciding fall was broup Int
about by a rare combination of holds,
the famous Miller leg scissors over
the head, bar arm hold and a toe
hold being clamped on the brown boy
before he succumbed To the superior
strength Of his opponent.
Old Ed Adamson has not overesti-
mated the ability OF the Jap in the
least For speed, inside knowledge of
the game, posture. and an amazing
ability To forcsee a hold and anticipate

wrestling came is known as time

Miller couldn't be denied. He was

A S4oo Dollar Upton Parlor Grand
Piano Absolutely Given
AWaV

That advertising is now science is
again demonstrated practically to the
buying public Of this section by the
wonderful advertising system now en-
ployed by the most enterprising busi-
ness house Of Appel's, who are going
to give away absolutely free to some
one Of their customers on April II,
1914, the beautiful Upton Parlor Grand
Piano, which is now on exhibition at
their store. The Upton sells for $400
and is a high class instrument in every
respect. guaranteed by the max ers for
ten years. Just think OF it! A S40O
piano to be given away! A few years
ago if merchant was to do such
thing he would be considered fit sub.
iect Tor an asy Ium. but conditions have
changed, yet n-face Of the enormous
sum spent in advertising the fact Of
Appels giving away $500 piano is
stupendous undertaking and it clearly
demonstrates their desire to be al.
ways up to and little ahead Of the
spirit Of the times.
Every purchaser Of $l.00 worth of
goods from any department of their
store will receive a coupon good for
100 votes on the piano. The person
presenting the largest number of votes
to them on April llth will receive the
piano absolutely free. No favors will
be shown and every person will re-
ceive an equal chance. The reputa-
ton enjoyed by Appel's for square
dealing insures this fact. We think
the buying people will appreciate this
extremely liberal offer on the parl Of
Appers, and we predict lively scram.
