MOB STORE FOR SHOWING
PORTRAIT OF ROOSEVELT

New Orleans, Nov ga dispatch
from Bogota says: The republic of
Colombia has issued orders for all its
consu,s, ministers or other resident of
ficials in other South American states
to take absolutely no part in the recep-
ton of Colonel Roosevelt. Such was
the nature of the orders that in sew
eral cities the Colombian representa-
tives are said to have gone out their
way to 'snub the man who took Pan
anna.
Colombia is bitterly jealous of the
attentions showered upon the former
American president. and the Bogota
papers daily publish caustic editorials
and news articles denouncing him.
Several cartoons display the colonel
in the act of annexing all South Amer
lea to the United States.
AS an indication of the feeling on
the part of the populace. an art store
which displayed a Roosevelt picture
was wrecked by a mob several nights
ago. Several gendarmes who tried to
restore peace were beaten by the
crowd, and the picture of Roosevelt
with the head cut off was nailed upside
down TO a post.
