DR. CURRY PREACHED
 A SPECIAL SERMON
Services Attended by Members of the G. A. R. Post and Camp or the Sons
 of Veterans

George A. Custer Post, G. A. R., and George H. Thomas camp, Sons of Veterans of the United States attended divine ser vices in a body at the First Presbyterian church yesterday morning and listened to an eloquent and edifying sermon by the pastor, Rev. Dr. A. 5. Curry. The mem bers of the organizations occupied seats re- served for them near the pulpit all other seats in the house being filled by members of the congregation and their friends.
 Dr. Curry selected as his text: Right ousness exalteth nation, but sin is a re- proach to any people. "-Proverbs 14:34.
 In few felcitous remarks the preacher alluded to the reunited country. He said that while the veterans who fought on the side of the north were present in a body and while many who conscentiously fought against the north were scattered through the congregation, memories of the conflict of thirty-five years ago and more might naturally be revived. There were two re- >publics then. Now there is only one There were two armies then; now there is only one. There were two flags then; now there is only one.
 Dr. Curry then took up his sermon proper, and after explaining that righteousness meant in its etymology simply rightness which here meant the law of God, dwelt upon the necessity of having at all times the law of God before and acting in ac- cordance with this law. Without righteous ness he said, no nation could survive and prosper. There must be, he emphasized, righteousness in our family life, righteous ness in our social life, righteousness in our national life, and more important than all righteousness in individual life. For nations as such would not come before the judg- ment bar of God, but every individual must answer there.
 pr. Curry pointed out many evils that characterized the nation in it's social and political life and urged his hearers to strive to remedy these evils He scored. among other things, political corruption. There was no defense for election abuses; tissue ballots had been wrong in the south and the purchase of "blocks of five" had been wrong in the north. The preacher rejoced to see a moral awakening throughout the

ANOTHER ATTEMPT
To Break Out of the City Prison
 Frustrated

The fifth unsuccessful attempt to break out of the city prison was made Saturday night, and but for the timely appearance of Night Warden Rittenberry on the scene, a number of jail birds would have made their escape.
 When Warden Rittenberry went into the prison to lock the prisoners up for the night his attention was attracted by a noise in the rear end of the corridor, which on investigation was found to have been made by the would-be free men, who had succeeded in removing the brick from the wall, and were only the thickness of a brick from liberty.

 During the week the Boers have suc- cessfully deceived even the best informed residents with reference to the probable course of events when Lord Roberts enters the Transvaal.
