TALE ABOUT THEODORE RoosE. WELT BEING SHOT IS SAID
 TO BE FALSE.
Was in Fine Spirits and Condition When He Was Entertained at the McMilian Ranch
 Nothing Official.

New York. Nov. 5.-Another one Of those apparently absurd rumors that bob up almost every time prominent man gets out of direct touch with the world, went skipping over the country today concerning former President Roosevelt.
 This will O the wisp had it that Mir Roosevelt had been killed in Al rica, and because of the dangers of African hunting freshly imprinted on the public mind by Mr Roosevelt's magazine articles, there was some un- easlness until Douglas Robinson, Mir. Rooseyelt's brother-in-law, said em- pbatically that he took no stock in sueh reports.
 Mir. Robinson branded the first vague reports of the day as false and when informed tonight that late rumors had l. that he (Mr. Robinson) had been advised by cable of Mir. Rooseyelt's death, he authorized an other vigorous denial. If anything had happened to his illustrious broth erin-law. Mir. Robinson was sure he would hear of it immediately and ac .6s9r'ilnglx he placed 10 credit in the reports of today
 Magazine editors and other associ. ates of Mr Roosevelt in New York. took this same view.
 |; was pointed out also that the colonial office in London would be promptly advised of any mishap to MT. Roosevelt, and as nothing had been heard there, this was taken as an additional indication that the rum. or was merely news sprite from the field Of the sixth sense. According to latest cable dispatches, MT. Roose- welt Is hunting on the Guas Ingishu Plateau and will return to Londiani about five weeks hence.
 Rome, Nov 5.--Mrs. Theodore Roo seyelt entertained a score of friends al the Hotel Beausite this afternoon, anon gthem J. E. Parrett and c. s. Wilson, respectively first and second secretary, and Major Landis, the mili tary attache. and Commander Long. the naval attache of the American em bassy.
 The rumor in circulation in the United States that an accident had befallen former President Roosevelt in Africa was cabled to Rnne but 3yas generally discredite.
 Mrs. Roosevelt had heard nothing concerning the reported incident.
 London. Nov. 5.-The East African department of the Colonial office has heard nothing of any accident to MT. Roosevelt.
 The officials state that it is incon. ceivable that any serious mishap could have befallen MT Roosevelt and not have been reported to the governor of the foreign office.
 The American embassy has receiw ed no word concerning the Roosevelt party.
 Lady Harrington, who Is a cousin of William N McMillian. said today that she had not received word of any har into Mir Roosevelt. Mir. Nc. Millian has ranch at Juia, near Nal 1ub, British East Africa. and enter tained the Roosevelt party there.

Word of Warning.

Contestants and their friends are cautioned against erroneous classified ton of subscriptions in order to SC cure the additional votes allowed to new subscriptions over old ores. It sometimes happens in contests of this kind that frieids of candidates will subscribe under the name of some other person, perhaps member of the same family. in order to give the candidate the benefit of additional votes given with new subscriptions This is unfair and will not be allow ed and the publisher of the Sentinel Record wishes to caution contestants and their friends against ssicfi action.
 Surprises Are in Order.
 Surprise after surprise greets those who are watching the Sentinel-Rec. ord's ourofEurope Cntest, and that includes about every man, woman and child living in the city of Hot Springs and vicinity and many beyond that limit. The first surprise came when the Sentinel-Record made it's first an nouncement of the tours. as it was deemed at matter of impcssibility for a newspaper in city the size of Hot Springs to make suca magnificent offer as three absolutely free tou7s of Europe in return for few weeks
The Sentinel=record., 1909-11-06

The balloting continues to increase each day in the Sentinel-Record's per sonally conducted Tou-rof-Europe sub. scription contest and yesterday 21,500 votes were cast for the candidateo. This includes both the coupon and certificates, or special ballot votes and shows, what an interest has been ere. ated in the contest. These votes came from every district and some of them from points hunmeds of miles distant, where Sentinel4Record read CTS clipped the coupons and sent them by mail to be cast for this or that favorite contestant.
 Heavy Baloting continues.
 While there is only one few leader today the ballot,ng was very heavy, and there was also some changes In positions of the candidates. Tn the First district Misses Bailey, Mark and Jones made very nice gains, while Miss Mary Mooney holds her position at the top and Miss Bancroft Is sec ond. The other contestants in this district have made nice gains and there is liable to be a change in posi- tion most any time.
 In the Second district Miss Ger rude Sanders jumped from third place to first while Miss Helen Babcock takes second place. The others are perhaps preparing for a surprise and some one of them way down On the list may come up to the top any day as there Is no doubt but that they could if they tried
 It is evident that the friends of all these contestants desire to see them take the leadership in their re spective districts and this indicates continued heavy voting, which will make the leaders step lively if they desire to retain their present posi- tiDns.

WORK ON AIRSHIP THAT
MADE RECORD JOURNEY
Mechanics Overhaul Count zeppelin's
Craft That Crashed Into Tree
After 9o0-Miie Flight.


BERLIN, June Expert mechanics
arrived at Goeppingen To-Day and are
hard at work ON repairs to Count Yep
pelin's airship, which suddenly termin-
ated its record breaking cruise of near
ly 900 miles by crashing into a tree,
badly tearing the forward part OF the
aluminium envelope and otherwise in
juring the big craft. II Is not expect
ed that repairs will be completed be-
fore Thursday when the Zeppelin ii"
will be taken back to Fricdrichshafen
for a complete overhauling.
The accident was due TO the fact
that the helmsman was worn out by
his long vigil. according 10 Zeppelin.
The helmsman's blunder caused the
collision" Zeppelin said today. He
had been on duty almost necessarily
during the long voyage and was worn
out and hardly master OF himself when
the collision occurred. | saw the air
ships danger and ordered the helms
man to put to staFAeaFa, but he put the
helm 10 port instead AMI before the
error could be corrected the crash oc-
Cured.
1T was simply a human error and
one for which the airship itself was
in no wise responsible. rhe efficiency
OF the airship has not Ueen affected
by the accident in the least
The achievement OF Cornt Zeppelin
has aroused the war ONCE as nothing
else has done in years and II is certain
that the building Of the dirigible air
ships for war purposes will be pushed
with all possible speed from now on.
