from which the Federal line could be-
clearly seen. General Lee hastened to fnd

jackson observed tho line with great care,

himself he pulled his cap lower on his fore

troops TO direct some change In their for

There was one spot, however, where his

THEIR NOVEL ENTERPRISE.
Two Young Women Prepare Sermons ant

Two Young Women Prepare Sermons and
Speeches to Order.
Two enterprising young women from a
Missouri town have launched novel busi-
ness enterprise in st. Louis.
They are bright young women who have
had varied business and professional ex-
perience, and they propose to bring to bear
upon their late venture the wisdom result.
ant from that experience One Of them IL
n graduate Of the Missouri normal school
and has occupied the post Of principal In
a village school, has seen service as the
local agent of an insurance company, and
incidentally has done some meritorious
work in the line Of short stories for stand
ard magazines The other wa graduated
from st. Teresa's convent In K.nsas City,
and has acted as amanuensis for man of
literary and political note and managed a
monthly journal devoted to reform move
ments. The fist young lady Is editor and
the latter business manager Of the new
concern
The ladies have sent out circulars Of
fering to prepare essays, sermons and
speeches They offer further TO "revise
and copy manuscripts" and to exchange
advertisements and manuscripts. Tney
"solicit correspondence with newspapers,
periodicals and magazines, and state that
advertisements are contracted for with
reform and college papers
"Our business will be done chiefly with
college and reform papers, said the busi-
ness manager to a Sunday Republic man.
We intend to make speciality Of the
preparation of graduation essays and ora
tions. A great many students would
rather pay for them than take the trouble
to prepare them"
"And what about sermonsp" was asked.
1--WE have prepared some and expect to
got up Others" said the business manager;
"but, of course, all our business is strictly
confidential
The ladies live in coy bachelor maid
apartments In the west end, and there Is
no end of nineteenth century atmosphere
about their charming quarters They arc
proud of being new women, and the busi-
ness manager referred with something
that strongly resembled pride to her one
time association with the Kaweah settle
ment, socialist colony once located in
Tulare county, Cal. and now defunct, but
which numbered among its members Ed

MAI. WEBSTER'S SUCCESSOR
He Has Not Besn Chosen Yet BY
the President.
Some Gossip IA 10 How the Place
VIII Bo Filied-TwO Persons
Mentioned for It.

The appointment of a successor to the
late Major william II. Webster, chief cx-
aiEinrr of the Civil Service Commission,
il Is expected, will be made within
comparatively short time. The place in
vvlved much labor and the organization
OF the commission is not such that the work
can be turned over to Others already en-
ployed there except for very short time.
A good deal OF gossip Is already current
as TO President Clevcland's probable selec-
ton for the piace. Names IErntion ed
are those OF Mr.. John I. Doyle, secretary
OF tie conn issiOn. and Rev. 4. ID. Bailey,
assistant chief examiner. who is also we'll.
known as the executive officer OF the
Central Union Mission work. Both these
gentlemen have been with the commission
almost from its beginning. They are en-
Lirely familiar with its work In all its de
tails, and thoroughly In sympathy With
the reform which il represents.
When Mr.. Doyle was asked this morning
regarding the report that the choice lay be-
tween himself and Mr.. Bailey. he replied:
THAT is purely Il matter OF gossip. Any
one else is as well fitted to Judge of it a5
l am
Mr. Bailey said he lad no information
whatever as to who might he selected for the
place.
1t is regal Tded by many as quite probable
the President will choose someone outside
the present official circles. The work re-
quires man OF unusually wide and accurate
learning, as well as very considerable exec
utiye ability.
