 Two New Leaders.
 The balloting yesterday was some what heavier than the day before ant these being distributed among ten can didates in such a manner as to place a new leader at the head of each dis trict.
 Miss Mary Mary Mooney went from away down at fourth place to the tor in the first district, and Miss Gertrude Sanders took the lead in the second district by a small margin.

 The liberality of the Sentinel-Record in offering to the young ladies of Hot Springs three free tours of Europe in a subscription contest was so surpris- ing in it's magnanimity, so much above and beyond every other contest prize that has ever been offered in this city that many could hardly believe that they had read the announcement alright, and some even intimated that they must some kind of a string to 1t, but It is now known throughout the length and breadth of this section that it is a bonafde offer and that next July three young ladies will leave Hot Springs in a Pullman train for New York, will cross the ocean, visit Scotland, England, France and Canada, all at the expense of this pa. per and return home six weeks later. In return for all this expenditure for railroad and Pullman fares, meals a la carte in the dining cars, hotel bills, guides, interpreters, handling of bag gage and tips to polters and walters, the SentineliRecord only asks them that they interest themselves and their friends until the 18th of Decem- ber in securing as many new sub scribers as possible.
