Barrett Discounts Trouble.
In the opinion of John Barrett. director
of the bureau OF American republics. the
revolution at Barranqailla. Colombia, will
amount TO practically nothing. Mr.. Bar
rett was for several years United States
minister to Colombia. and is thoroughly
acquainted with conditions in the Central
American republic.
That the disturbance at Barranqultla
will amount to n real revolution is hardly
poss BILE said Mr. Barrett 10 Star re-
porter today, for the reason that the
people throughout Colombia are not at all
interested in It. The causes are political,
and grew out of the discussion over the
ratification of the treaty between Panama
and Colombis framed last winter.
Reason of Conflict.
The treaty has been ratified by Pan
ANA. but not by Colombia. The political
element that is opposed to its ratification
is responsible for the trouble at Barran-
quilla
"A significant feature of the situation
is that Gonzales Valencia, the man pro-
claimed president by the revClutionists, is
now in BoEota and has denounced the
movement This shows that the BEST peo-
pie of the BarranQuiila section are op-
posed to the revolution, for Valencia Is
an able and influential man. VINO COM
mands a following of the leading citizens
OF his part OF Colombia
The troops from Bogota Te now on
the way to Barranquiila and should ar
rive there in two or three DAYS Ihe trip
up the Magdalena river and across the
mountains TO Bogota takes seven days,
hut the trip down can be made In less
than one-half that time, the current OF
the river being quite swift.
People Anxious for Peace.
Colombia, it must be remembered. Is
large counlry-twice as large as the state
OF Texas. The railroad facilities are poor.
so an uprising of the kind that has just
occurred in Barranquilla could be easily
managed by small number of armed
men. When the regular troops arrive from
Bogota there will doubtless be lighting,
but the end should come quickly.
The people of Colombia have been pro-
crossing rapidly during the past few
years and do not want revolutions. They
know they have a country of practically
unlimited resources. To build it UP to IFS
proper position they realize they must
give their attention TO more important
matters than revolutions

DROVE INTO CREEK
SBvMkAL PRATTvILLE PERSONS HAVE MARROW EsCAPES.
sevsenl WoaAeu and Yoang Gzsis With Ihser Escorts Had tS wade
 Over Waste Deep in Ws-

Prattville, March 15.-{Special.)- HcQueen Smith and all the farmers along the Alabama river in Ehis coun- ty removed all their cattle and iarm help to places of safety early yester- day morning in anticipation or exceed ing high water. The weather bureau answere da good purpose in this in- stance as without its warming many farmers would not have known the great danger to live stock and hu- man life. So far as heard from there have not been any fatalities In this county on account of the flooded con- dition of the creeks and river.
 Yesterday afternoon quite number of persons went down to Washington ferry to view the Alabama river Mrs. C. G. Beckwfth. Mrs. E. B. Holloway and her daughter. Miss Lucille. Mir. and Mrs. W. A. Mckay and their daughter Miss Jenna2lte. Mfr. and Mrs. c. K. McCord ard their daughter. Miss Kath- leen. Misses Daisy and Mary Cleve- land. with quite . number of young men. went in transfer. On reaching a small ravine in the road near the fer ry they ascertained the back water from the river had covered the road to a depth of three or four feet. and con
 tinuei in their way. but the horses dra wing the transfer did not keep in the middle of the road and were soon plunged into water nearly over the head of the team. This frightened them and the transfer was drawn in water nearly two feet deep in the body of 1t. It thus became necessary to remove the horses from the tran afer | and take the party out which was
 done by the party wading their way 1 to dry land. through water waist deep and deeper to them.
 It seems some buggies ahead of the transfer had just passed through the | ravine safely and the driver of the transfer deemed 1t safe to follow. but
 missed the middle of the road with the result detailed above. They were
 all returned to their homes as soon as possible. but report the water rather cold for their experience.
 The high water in Autauga creek has been about eighteen to twenty four inches deep in the only bakery in this city and there has therefore been | no bread baked since last Wednesday.

FIND STOLEN MONEY
ANOTHER CHAPTER TO ANDALUsIA
 ROBBERY CASE.
Eight Hundred and Fifty Dollars of the Thousand stolen from City Drug store Mysterfous-
 Iy Reappears.

Andalusia. March 15.-(Specfal)- Eight hundred and fifty of the thous- and dollars which was stolen from the safe of the City Drug Store several days ago. mysteriously reappeared sometime during the day Saturday and was found by one of the clerks Sat urday night. When found. the money was lying behind & waste basket in the office.
 The robbery took place several days ago. The safe had been locked the night before snd when 1t was opened the next days, it was ascer- tained that the money was missing. The outer door of the safe was just as 1t mad been left the night before, but the Inner door had been prized open. How the tobber gained en- trance into the building. and how he got into the safe without breaking the outer door are mysteries.
 Now the finding of the money be- hind the waste basket adds still an other chapter to the affair. There is no clue to the identity of the robber nor to the party who returned the money.

Miss CottIsw's Recital.

The most important musical event of the season was the appearance last night of Miss Augusta Cottlow, a plan ist of international reputation. in the parlors-of the Jesse French Piano Com pany.
 Since the appearance of Harold Bau- CT and Joseph Hoffman some four years ago, no pianist of great importance has been heard in Montgomery, and con- sequently the recital by Miss Cottlow was hailed by all lovers of good mu- sic. and especially piano students as an event of rare importance, and the result was the attendance of an audi ence that taxed the capacity of the hall.
 Miss Cottlow was heraided as not only an artist of international repu- tation. but as the equal of Fannie Bloomfield Zeisler, who has always been acknowledged as the greatest of American pianists. She not only sub~ stantiated this reputation. but she proved herself the superior of Zeisler in that while she possesses all the ca pabilities of that famous artist she ex-
