 Indian Chief.
 White Eagle, chief of the Ponce tribe of Indians then requested that he be allowed to speak. He was introduced to Governor sJellzs, Congressman Underwood and others He said he had travelled through the state in a train and had seen the tall pines and the great ores and the wonderful resources and that it was not thus in his country He said his section furnishes the grain to eat, while Alabama furnishes the woods to build houses and the iron for knives, and other hardware. He said he was glad of the hospitality extended to him and his peo- pie and that their hearts were made warm by 1t.
 White Eagle said it was the habit of his tribe and the Indian race to always present the chief of the tribe they were visiting with gift, not for it's value, but as a token of friendship. He then pre- scented Governor Jelks with a handsome tobacco bag. studded with beads and made by the Indians He said he under stood there were three big chiefs, so he had remembered every one of them. He sent Mayor Drennen a gorgeously colored blanket, and also one to President Krebs. who he calls the big chief of the fair.
 President Krebs presented the chief with gold headed walking cane and the chief acknowledged the present with few fitting expressions of his apprecia- ton. He said usually presents were not valuable except for the friendship they carry with them, but that this one was valuable in two ways.
 Seeing the Exhibits.
 After the speaking and the presenta- tions the governor and his staff were es- corted through the various buildings and shown the exhibits. The women's build ing was the first visited.

resources are being concentrated near
La Victoria, which is three days dis
tant from Caracas. and which is near
the noun famous district of Guarico,
where the advance guard of revolu-

forces retreated, however, to join
Gen. Mateo's army, which today was
in the neighorhoond of Ell Sombrero,
and advancing by forced marches.
Once these two forces effect juno

the offensive against President Castro.
The situation of the government is far
from clear, Notwithstanding the revo-

Or. S. P. Simpson Dies in Rowland
town From Cancer.
He Was Born in south Carolina and
Was Q Union Veteran OF the
OWL War.
BURIAL WILL BE IN TENNESSEE

DR.. 8. p. Simpson, q member Of
the board of health, and highly re-
spected physician, died at 1910
O'Clock last night at his home. 1926
Langstaff Avenue, Rowlandtown,
from cancer, after long illness. The
deceased had been very low for some
little time, and death was not unex-
pected.
DIR. Simpson was born in South
Carolina in 1924, and was n years
old. He graduated in medicine early
in life, and when the Civil War broke
out enlisted as a surgeon in the 18th
Kentucky Federal army, serving until
the end Of the war.
He located in Tennessee after that,
and had lived in various places there
until about ten years ago, when he
came here from Union City, and had
since made this place his home.
DR.. Simpson was quiet, unassum-
ing gentleman, but one of more than
ordinary intelligence and affability,
aud those who knew him enjoyed him
very much. He lived a retired life
with his wife, and leaves no imme-
dat family, with her exception. He
had been q member of the board of
health for several years.
An adopted son lives in Martin,
Tenn, and arrived this morning to
make the funeral arrangements. The
remains will prohablysbe taken to
Martin this evening for burial.

The Question Now is What is to be
Done With the Library Material
About 200, 900 Bricks Have Been Un-
loaded on the Site by One of
the Contractors.
STONE ORDERED WORTH $1,000

People who pass the public library
site at Ninth and Broadway have for
several days past, in fact ever since
the trustees called off the contract and
advertised for new bids, wondered
who owned the huge piles of bricks
that cover quite large area Of the
property, and what is going to be done
with them.
The brick, it is learned, belongs to
Chamblin and Murray, who were
awarded the sub-contract under B. 7.
Davis for the brick and stone work at
a cost of about SIS, 900, and there are
about 200, 900 of the brick already un-
loaded and ready TO be laid. When
they were hauled no hitch in the pro-
ceedings was anticipated, consequently
the contractors had no hesitaucy in
piling them up as high and as rap
idly as they could with pretty
weather and plenty of wagons.
Unless the same contractors get the
sub.contrsct when the new contract
for the library editice is let August
IL they will be at a heavy loss. 1t
will cost 300 alone to move the
brick, not counting the loss from
breakage.
But this is not the worst misfortune
Of the contractors. They have order
ed 81 900 worth of stone, it is under
stood, which is on its way here now,
and cannot be sent back. II it is not
used IN the library it will be almost a
dead loss to them.
There is not much interest being
manifested over the contract, and a
number of contractors who were
CARED before from bidding will not
offer estimates this time. A great
many ssem to think that the trus-
tees should have attempted to ar
range so Mr.. Davis conld retain the
contract, and avoid complications.
MI Davis, it is understood, will bid
again next time.

CAsTRo's STRENGTH.

Although there is much opposition
to President Castro, he will control
the situation, and a single defeat in

leave Caracas for La Victoria Thurs
day. the revolutionists have reap
peared on the outskirts of Caracas.

The slaughter house of Mr.. Charles

The chimney runs through the roof

was extinguished before the South

PRESENT DELAY IS DANGEROUS.
Affairs of Peoples Bank Should Be
Settled.

The delay in the adjustment of the
affairs of the defunct Peoples Bank Is
causing much worry and discomfort
among the creditors.
It is a we'll known fact that delay on
such occasions is always dangerous to
the parties interested, and it was
talked yesterday that the numerous
creditors would hold a meeting and
try and determine upon some action
towards protecting themselves.
Mr.. G. r. Ellis was made assignee
on Thursday last, Goth. one week ago,
and he claims that he was arduously
endeaVoring to get at the true status
of affairs of the bank until enjoined by
the appointment of temporary re-
ceiver last Saturday night
Since that time nothing that would
tend to clear up the failure has been
given the public, and Mr.. Ellis states
that he cannot proceed further until
the application for receiver is heard on
April 4th.
Thus the trouble thickens and the
chances, seemingly, grow less each
day for any speedy settlement. The
Times-Recorder had hoped that the
people of Americas would profit by
past experience of two broken banks
and not allow the assets of the Peoples
Bank, whatever they may be, to be
gobbled up by delays and court costs.
It would seem the better part of dis
erection to agree upon a good business
man to wind up the affairs of the Peo-
Piles Bank and put him in charge at
