THOUGHT KAISER OWNED HOTEL, so
 MOB MRECKS IT

Calgary, Alberta, Feb; 12-vMayor Costelly called a meeting of the city council to take steps to prevent re- currence of the rioting by mobs of soldiers and citizens which last night wrecked the Riverside Hotel and on Thursday night the White Lunch res- taurant. It is understood that the military authorities will hold the sol- diers of the local garrison in the bar racks tonight to prevent another out break.
 The only known motive for the at- tack on the Riverside Hotel last night was the belief that it was owned by a German, John Kaiser. It was said. however. that the hotel was pur- chased by a native born French-Cana- dian some time ago.
 Crowns Rathskeller was marked for attack by the mob in the belief that the proprietors are Austrians but the move was foiled when the authorities stationed a picket about the place. An illuminated sign which read: tRath- skelIar'' which gave offense to Soldiers was taken down. The attack on the Riverside HeteI was made in the face of an appeal by General Cruikshank, the barracks where the battalions were quartered and requested the sol diers to respect the law and refrain from rioting.
 General Cruikshank yesterday con- ducted an investigation into the riot ing of the previous night.

GEORGIA DAY

While the North is honoring Lin coin today. the5 Empire State of the South will celebrate Georgia Day, the anniversary of the landing in 1733 of James Oglethorpe and his co1onists.
 Most of the co1onists who sealed the Yamacraw Bluffs on the Savannah river on that February day 1S3 years ago were men and women who had suffered imprisonuaent for debt or had been persecuted because of their re- hgious beliefs.
 General OgIethorpe's pioneer set tiers were 12o in number, with S5 families represented. They sailed from Gravesend in the ship Ann and reached Charleston early in 17S3 Having obtained the consent of the Creek Indians to establish a settle ment, OgIethorpe and his followers landed on the site of Savannah The first habitation for whites in Georgia, a clapboard house was built a few days later A few months later 40 Jews arrived at Savannah, and they were soon followed by a company of Bavarians, who had fled from the fatherland to escape persecution. Then came a party of Saxons to found a Moravian settlement a hundred High flanders from Scotland, and more Eng fish and Germans. Many of the Geor- gians of today are descendants from those pioneers of many nations who laid the foundations for the future greatness of the state.

 UNUSUAL CLAIM
Steel Corporation Sets Stan dard, Says Youngstown
 Manufacturers.

(Comnittee. on Industrial ReIations)
 Washington, Feb. 12-J. P. Nor gan is chairman of the finance com mittee of the steel corporation. In vestigation at Youngstown showed the the shamefulIy low wages and long hours imposed on the steel workers there were defended on the ground that the steel corporation sets the standard. Independent manufacta- rers say they can pay. no more than the steel corporation.
 Morgan's personal views are fInpor- tant because of his command ding posi- ton in the greatest of employing cor porations. Testifying before the Commission on Industrial Relations in New York a year ago, Morgan was asked if he considered S10 a week a sufficient wage for longshoreman.
 3tIt is if s1O is all he can get, and he takes it," replied MT. Morgan.
 That was honest, anyhow. Morgan didn't pretend that his corporation Is benevolent father to his 23O,000 em- pIoyees, and that they can trust to its generosity and conscience. He frank 1y admits. in effect, that it hasn't any conscience. If the steel workers can get more, they are entitled to it, The Youngstown workers who struck and formed unions gave a valuable obj oct lesson in how to go about it,

ENGLISH QUEENS

The first reigning queen of England was Jane, daughter of the Duke of Suffolk and wife of Lord Guildford Dudley, who was beheaded S62 years ago to-day, Feb. 12, 1854. Lady Jane Grey. as she was known prior to her marriage and brief elevation to royal dignity, was of the blood royal, being the at-granddaughter of Henry VII. She was an unusually accom- plished girl. King Edward VI be- queathed his crown to her in conse- quence of his aversion to the Cath olic principles of his sister Mary. On the death of Edward, Jane, who had been married to Lord Guilford Dudley. son of the Duke of Northumberland, was proclaimed queen, but withoUE the slightest manifestation of enthu- siasn son the part of her subjects. It was the custom that the first days of a new reign should be passed in the Tower of London, and Jane was com ducted thither. After ten days of the vain pageantry of royal state, Jane re- turned to private life, and Mary as- sumed the crown. At first Mary was disposed to permit. her rival to live, and an instruction of her followers caused her to change her mind, and Jane, then only seventeen years old, was beheaded in the Tower.

A. Lincoln, Tavern Keeper,
 Served Meals for % Gents

In 24 of the states of the Union this is a legal holiday in commemoration of the birthday of Abraham Lincoln. No better illustration could be afford spiration of America than the fact that the man whose memory is thus treasured spent his youth in a log cabin and tailed as a rail-sp1ttter, skipper of Mississippi f1atboat, farmer, hunters clerk in a, country store, grocer and tavernkeeper. It is true that when Lincoln became Presi- dent in the darkest days of the repub- lies history, many of the fashionables of Washington society sneered at him. and looked upon him as socially i'm possible These critics. happily, are dead and forgotten-although their descendants still exist in large num- bers-while the fame of Lincoln is imperishable. Nor is it confined to his native land, for some of the great est democrats of Europe have paid tribute to the backwoodsman as the greatest man of his time. and among the greatest in all time.
 It Is interesting to recall, on this day, that Lincoln, as member of the firm of Berry & Lincoln, of New Sa- lem, H., played the AroIe of taven- keeper, and was mine host to the travellers who visited that village on the Sangamon. Under their license, Berry & Lincoln were restricted to certain prices for their wares and accomm odations- Twenty-Five cents was the legal rate for either break fast, dinner or supper, except in the case of stage passengers who could be required to pay 3715 cents for a meal. Those who spent the night at LincoIn's inn were charged 12h cents for lodging, while twice as much was charged for putting up a horse over night, and 12 5z cents for single feed for the animal .
 Those who felt in need of liquid re- Treatments could be supplied from Berry & Lincolns stock at very req sonable rates. A half pint of whiskey was served for 12 E cents Wine cost twice as much. Apple brandy, pop ular tippIe in those days, was quoted as 12 cents per pint Peach brandy, Holland gin and rum commanded 18 cents per half pint. Lincoln's GUS toners took their ''pizen'' straight, and mixed drinks were unknown

ERZERUM

The Armenian city of Erzerum-al- so called Erzerun, Erzrunn and Arze- roum - which has been the scene of fierce fighting between the Russian and Turkish armies, is one of the most important strategicaI points on the Turko-Russian frontier. The city is now protected by modern fortifca- tions, and the old part of the town is surrounded by a triple wall of stone The ancient citadel, encompassed by a double wall, has been modernized Erzeroum is a filthy, squalid city like
 most of those controlled by the Turks
 but 1t has a beautiful situation on a lovely plain about 5000 feet above sea level. surrounded by mountains of considerable elevation. It is 12O- miles from Trebizond, the nearest port the Black sea- and is near the buphrates. The population of about 10000 is three-fourths Turkish, and there are about 5000 Armenfans and 2,000 Persians. The streets are mar row and filthy, and, like those of Constinantinople. are infested with savage-looking dogs, The houses are mostly of wood, mud, or sun-dried bricks. Erzerum has just passed it's fifteenth hundred birthday, for it was founded in the year 415 by the Elm peror Theodosious IT., who named 1t Theod dosiopolis It was taken by the Se1jul1 Turks in the thirteenth century and hy the.
