 Many New Candidates.
 The opening of the second week of The Advertisers great prize contest was marked by a greater number of applications for entrance to the race than were received on any previous day since the contest began. No less than ten new candidates were enrolled and number of other prospective con- testants have the matter under conEid- eration.
 One of the new candidates for the pony and wagon, a bright little maid Of years. Miss MynnStte Manning. sig nalized her entry BN jumping into trst place at 8 single bound. Miss Marie PaSchal. of Georgiana. aged 9, led the procession with a score of 1l,SO0 votes at the close of the first week of the contest. Miss Mannings campaign manager resolved to start her with enough votes to put her ahead of Miss Parchal, which he did by cashing in four yearly subscriptions in her favor, giving her 12,O0o votes, a ma aJority of just 200 over the little Georgiana girl.
 The New Leader.
 Little Wynnette, who has made such an excellent start In the race, is the daughter of H. A. Manning city sales man for the D. E. Forbes Music Com pany. He Is a native of Alabama and has an extensive acquaintance. espec- iaIIy in the Fifth Congressional Dis- trict in which he was formerly engag- ed in political work. Mr. Manning Is managing the campaign for his little daughter and hopes to win the pony and cart fer her, If not something bet- ter.
 Word comes from Georgiana that lit- tie Miss Paschsl is a regular live wire when 1t comes to securing subscriptions for The Advertiser, and that she will probably havo enough additional votes soon to recover first place and hold 1t for awhile against all corners. It Is evident that there is going to be a very warm contest for first honOrs. Miss Manning and Miss Paschal are aiming at winning ouly the pony and wagon. but if they finish as we'll as they have started, one of fhom may get the $1s GOO automobile instead of the pony rig. which Is valued at only $500, but which Is valuable enough a prize to pay any one we'll for six or seven weeks work.
