Riehter,s conductinu.

It is difficult to define just what diff
ferentiates a good conductor from a
mere time beaten but story that is
told of Richter may help indirectly. In

ours beautiful passage for the oboe.
which rises. swells and dies away to a
pianissimo most effectively. To in
dictate the quality of the playing which
he wanted from this instrument, Rich

sponded to direction all inclusive in
its simplicity and intelligibility.

Fine Exhibition Staged by
Beers Club Monday Night
Two Bouts Go the Limit and
Washburn Lad Wins in
Second Round.

Before a crowd That was
somewhat disappointing in size
the F. T. Beers Athletic Club
staged their second boxing con-
test at the Opera House in this
city Monday evening and it
proved to be one of the best ex-
hibitions that was ever staged
in this city.
The main bout of the evening
was a ten round no decision con-
test between Anton, the Greek,
of Milwaukee, and Tommy Krieg
of Marshfield. Both boys were
about evenly matched and the
contest was a good draw. Krieg
was somewhat the heavier but
the Greek made up for the
Weight in his suppleness and the
match was dandy. During the
entire ten rounds the boys did
not need any coaxing to get
them together for both seemed
anxious to carry the fight to the
other.
The first round started out
with both boys feeling" out
the other fellow but this did not
last long until both started to
mix freely. The mixing was
kept up during the entire ten
rounds and the exhibition held
the close attention of the fans
during the entire ten bout.
The semi wind up was won by
Bat thing Johnson of this city in
the second round with a clean
Knockout. His opponent was
Young Anglers of St. Paul.
Anglers riled his opponent at the
start Of the battle when the
boys started to shake hands
when he hauled off and hit john
son as he was extending his
hands. Anglers was as quick as
chain lightning but even that
did not stop him from receiving
awful punishment. In the first
round he was fioorede with a
punch to the jaw and in the
second round he again hit the
floor twice on the same style of
a blow, the last time remaining
down for the count of ten.
The preliminary was a six
round two minute contest be-
tween two Ashland boys and
was a thriller. The boys fought
all Of the time. Soldier Flynn"
was outpointed by his younger
opponent and received quite a
beating which he took good
naturally.
Jack Walsh of Washburn
referred the bout while George
Buchanan of Ashland appeared
in the capacity of Inspector for
the Wisconsin boxing com
mission. r-
The fans were all satisfied
with the match which they
witnessed and should the Beers
Club stage another bout it will
be we'll attended. The Beers
Club is in for clean sports and
the crowds which attend are
a bout as orderly as could be
fou nd in any part of the state.
The Club has been complimented
on the class of shows which they
stage.

BEGINNING OF OIL REFINERY

The beginnings OF the oil refining
century. and perhaps earlier. 1t Is
definitely known that refineries were
operated in the Baku district of Rus
sio in the early part of the nineteenth
century. The industry In this country
may be said to date from the small
scale disallation Of several barrels
of crude petroleum to a Pittsburgh
druggist named Kler, in 1858. The
real father OF the industry however.
was Professor Benjamin Sillman of
Yale university, who made the first
comprehensive examination OF Amcrl-
can petroleum, and who first pointed
out the possibilities inherent In frac-
tional distillation of such crude mate
rial His remarkable report has be-
come one of the classics OF the pc
troleum industry
At the time of the drilling of the
Drake well I'm the vicinity of Titus
vile, Pa, In 1853. which started the
oil producing industry in this country
there were approximately fifty refin-
cries, so-called, In the United States
built and operated for the production
OF burning oil from coal distillation.
These refineries had sprung into being
as the result OF the discovery of James
Young In 1S47 that burning oil of
satisfactory Illuminating quality might
be obtained from the distilation OF
coal or related material. This dis
covery by Young started the Scottish
shale industry and the industry spread
to this country. The discovery by
Professor Sillman that burning oil
of superior quality TO the coal oil then
on the market could be obtained from

Pennsylvania crude petroleum revolu-
tionlzed this growing coal oil business.
The result was that numbers OF coal
oil refineries were either forced out
OF business or were converted over
into reflneries for the handling OF
Pennsylvania rock oil
From a small beginning, handling
two thousand barrels a year, the in
dustry has grown and expanded until
today several hundred million barrels
OF crude petroleum are handled yearly.
and investments aggregating over a
billion dollars have been made for the
refining and distributing OF petroleum
and It's products. Individual refineres
have developed capacities up to nearly
100000 barrels day, as compared
with few hundred barrels sixty years
ago. Transportation devices have
been developed until today there Is
hardly a city or town in the United
States where petroleum products are
not sold

WHEN CALAIS WAS ENGLISH

Calais was held by the English, their
occupation of the town beginning Au-
gust 3, 13i7. and continuing until / 155S.
Calais fell into the hands of the
English during the hundred years
war, when England and France were
esgaged in "A struggle which continued
for more than century. Edward III,
as grandson of Philip the Fair. claimed
the French crown and sought TO gain

recognized Edward as their king, and

were OF great assistance to the Eng

1t was not until 1853 that the French
army. led by the duke of Guise, drove
the English out. Queen Mary who
then ruled England. was deeply
grieved at the loss of Calais, and when
she died a few months later, her last
words were: when | am dead Calais
