Interfering With the Capitol Work.

AUSTIN, TEX, February 90, 1889.
To the Editor of the Statesman
During this fine weather the work at the
capitol ground is progressing as fast as
busy hands can possibly make it. But,
while we are all trying to do our best to
make the grounds pleasing to the eye,
there seems to be desire on the part of a
great many to hinder us in our work aud
also to deface it after 1t is completed.
Now ever since have been working on
the cement walks it has been a great
trouble to keep the people out of our way
and at last we put up temporary fence
80 as to keep them out. Bot they will
climb over it and of course we have to
order them out. Friday afternoon during
the many occasions that 1 had to order
people oHt man got very angry with me
and picked up a rock to strike me and
also threatened to kill me. 1 am sorry
l could not learn his name. But
he is one Of our lawmakers. He, as we'll
as every true citizen of Texas, should re.
Joioe to see the surroundings of our noble
capitol building rapidly nearing compile
ton, and his class should be the last to
try to hinder the work or intrude on
grounds when they see them fenced out.
But great many of them think the work
belongs to the capitol, and they can do as
they please with it. But they are greatly
mistaken, for the work does not belong to
the capitol until it is completed and re-
oelved by the proper officers. Until then
it belongs to the contractors.
Hoping that this man may not want to
fight the next time he meets me, (for some
times | run like deer when a man wants To
fight, but at Others 1 fight like tiger,) l

threats, and drawn revolvers de-
manded his money. Mr.. Yoder i'm.
mediately yielded to their demands.
They obtained about $500 in money.
but not being satisfied with that
amount. they demanded more. where
upon he replied that they had every
cent. They then commenced to tor
ture him by holding lighted candle
to his arms and setting fire to his
hair, but he could not give them any
more information. They then took
him out to the barn. fastened rope
around his neck and pulled him up
off of the ground and then asked,
again, but by this time he had dis
engaged one of his arms. They then
knocked him senseless and pulled
him up the second time Threatening
to burn down the building with hiiS
alive. They also wanted him to tel
of neighbors that were likely to havl
money. but he could not give any in.
formation concerning his neighbors'

The National Garment Cutter.

To cut. fit and make garments of
every description that will conform
with prevailing fashion and fit per-
fectly is most desirable attainment.
1t is one that any lady will find a
valuable and economic requirement
in her domestic education. TO the
wealthy the ability to correctly sup
erintend the cutting and making of
garments for family use is both a
pleasure and saving, while to the
poor it is necessity. By the use of
the National Garment Cutter this
can be accomplished. 1t is no Chart

fine folding square, a scroll or draft
tool, a full set of scales, and a book of
diagrams and instructions so simple

know how to cut. make up and trim
all kinds of clothing, heretofore the
tailors' and dressmakers' rules have
been shrouded IN mystery, or kept
beyond the reach of the masses. as in
most cases it requires payment of
various sums, ranging from $25 to
500. and weeks OF time DEVOTED to
study and practice.
But by the use of the NATIONAL
