The fact that drummer5 have been
unusually slow in taking out drum

business men in other states have

ty, where the lpce-cuttlng troubles
were inaugural. in which che wri-

and hopes that ftce cutting troubles
are ut an end, adj that the former
prosperity of the,ate will be speedily
revived.
A large pastm owner of north
Texas, who calledo see the governor,
said he would d,everything in his
power, no matter hat the expense or
Inconvenience, tt comply with the
new law, aud wod exert his infiu-
ence to induce othS to do so.
The secretary of tate has received
the fourteenth vollhe of the reports

Messrs. Jackson ad Jackson, the
official reporters.
The expenses of he extra session of

Commissioner Brewster yesterday

1t has been suggested that the lanG
board should lease waered sections OF

ties who have enclosed them, so as tt
allow them opportunity to comply
with the new law, without in thu
meantime being subjed to the penalt,
of the law for noncompliance. TIL,
question will probably be presented a
Me next meeting of the board.
The reason the land board refuses
to lease the watered sections WAS be
cause they supposed the legislator
might want to dedicate them perma

likely they will adhere to this line 9

ExtempOre Speech-HOw to Acquire
and Practice 1t.

BY Rev. William Pittinger, author
of ''Oratory." This new book deals
with subject of deep interest to all
who have occasion to speak in pub
lie. 1t therefore appeals not only to
those who are connected with the af-
fairs of government-natio state
and municipal-but also to members
of boards of education, or public insti-
buttons, or public works, of exchange,
of finance, to officers and directors of
railroads, tanks, insurance and other
companies, and to all who have plans
to present and opinions to express
upon current questions, and who de-
sire to so marshal their thoughts and
words as to carry conviction to the
minds of their hearers and advance
the cause advocated by the speaker.
While the different modes of speech
are fully described, and the special
merits of other forms of address are
clearly pointed out, the particular
object of the book is to show how a
man of average ability may learn to
speak extemporaneously with ease
and certainty. Some parts of the
work are simple enough to be compre-
hended by a school boy, and may be
applied by him in his first efforts
other parts may be read with profit by
the orator already in the maturity Of
his powers. 1t has PIG pages, hand
somely bound with cloth. Price

Gov. Ireland does not join in the
apprehension which has somehow OBJ
tanned currency as to the condition of
the walls of the temporary capitol.
He considers them perfectly secure
and the building safe in every respect,
He finds no occasion even for their in
spection.
Military movements indicate that
the rangers are being drawn into the
lines of fence cutting districts, so as
to be more readily used where such
disturbances are likely to occur again
if at all. Capt. Secer, of Company d,
and his force have moved to Brown
county, and Capt. Gillespie, who was
in this city yesterday, will probably
be withdrawn from his station in Pc
COS county and sent with force to
Frio OF Coleman county. Other de-
tachments are posted in DE Witt and
other counties where fence cutting has
been perpetrated. The governor and
acknowledgement are evidently actively
engaged in planning their campaign
for future, and it is to be hoped, etfec-
tive operations against fence cutters,
If any are still to be found.
Charters of the Ennis Cotton Com
press, capital $4,000, and of the Waco
Cotton Compress, capital $4,000, were

The comptroller yesterday made adj
ditional transfer of $4,000 from the
available school fund to the general
revenue on accounts of moneys of the
latter used in taking up school certif-
