4 Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov’t Report ABSOLUTELY PURE THE EXPOSITION. It Will Be Held at Piedmont Park After All. A COMPROMISE PLAN Which Gives the City a Park as Well as a Great Exposition. The Atlanta people have settled their aorthside and southside squabble and they will have the exposition. After all it will be at Piedmont park. Besides this Atlanta will get a new park on the south side of the city at the old water works site where the city •was three or four hundred acres cf beautiful land. I - The following is the compromise"plan reached by Mayor Goodwin and Mr. W. A. Hemphill: Seventy-five thousand dollars to be appropriated by the city to be expended in buildings and improvements at the . Piedmont park to be paid as follows: Twenty-five thousand dollars in 1894, $30,000 in 1895, and $20,000 in 1896; and ' the said sum to be expended on not less than five acres, to be leased by the city i for a term of years, with the right of ■ removal of said buildings, and said ap propriation not to be of force until sub scriptions amounting to $125,000 have ' been made to the stock of the exposi tion company. We recommend that all further details bo perfected by committees and the city attorney, to be subimtted to a meet ing of the general council as soon as the ; name can be had. < In considering sites the undersigned and other committees have had occasion j to become acquainted with the advan- , tages and the beautiful tract of land owned by the city and known as the old water works land, and while the com mittees differ as to its adoption for an exposition all are agreed that it is a every valuable and attractive spot of land that ought to be used for public ■ corporate purposes, and after confer- ; ence with committees on the subject we deem it proper and hereby recommend , that $40,*>09 be appropriated by the city for the impprovement of the said city property in walks drives, fencing, etc. Said sum to be alied as follows: SIO,OOO in 1894; SIO,OOO in 1895; SIO,OOO in 1896; SIO,OOO in 1897. We further recommend and. urge that the county commissioners extend Capitol avenue and Pryor street to said old waterworks in 1894 and 1895. W. A. HEMPHILL. JOHN B. GOODWIN.

Johnson exhibited to a Tribune reporter a check for $1666.66,which he had re ceived form the Fidelity and Casualty Accident Insurance , Company of New York, through Bilbro Bros., of this city. This is paid on an accidental policy taken out by Mr. Johnson on December sth, ’93. He lost his hand by a gunshot wound on the 17th of December, just twelve days after he had paid the pre mium.

The North Rome Council say they will at once take steps toward building two school houses; one for white and one for the colored children. There is dierence of opinion existing among the citizens as to whether this can be done without a bill. Last night at the opera house Mr. Daniel Sully and his company of play ers presented “The Millionaire.” The playing in the main was good and the plot was well carried out. The audi ence was appreciative and showed their appreciation at every turn of the play. The entertainment last evening at the Shorter college, given for the benefit of the collge library was largely attended. Quite a nice little sum was netted. The large audience showed thir appreciation by their enthusiastic applause.

Therefore, the blood is purified and kept in good condi tion by the use of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, it necessarily follows that the benefit of the medicine is imparted to every organ of the body. Can anything be simpler than the method by which this excell ent medicine gives good health to all who will try it fairly and patiently. A Peculiar Cause of Death. Toledo, March 9.—Sewell Parker, a young man of ‘,'3, died suddenly while sparring with a friend. The post mor tem examination showed that Parker’s death was caused from a broken heart, that organ being rent literally in two. A peculiar coincidence is the fact that Parker’s lather died only a few mouths ago from a similar cause. Vasquez Coining to the United States.
