tt THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1900. TRIBUNE'S EDUCATIONAL CONTEST Miss Grace Simrell Again Is in Nfntli Place. HOW THE LEADERS STAND A Number of Contestants Improve Their Standing, but Only One Change In Leaders The Time Is IUpe Now for New Contestants. An Opportunity Seldom Offered. Yesterday, the sixty-seventh day of The Tribune's Educational Contest, wns noteworthy for the determined ci forts of several of the leaders to get back some of the Ground they had lost during the past week, some making returns who had been quiescent for quite a time. There was only one change In position In spite of this, for the other leaders who have been working steadily all along, kept at it yesterday, and tho result Is that the same distance Is maintained thla morning In nearly all tho positions. David Spencer, of Bloomsburg, made the largest return for yesterday, cloven points. David V. Mrtley gained ten points on Rodriguez for first place, and tho same number on Callahan, who follows him. Arthur Kemmerer, of Factoryvllle, gained fight points on Callahan for third place, David Spencer got two points nearer Kemmerer and eleven points further away from Eugene Boland, who lias been threatening him for fifth place, and Miss Grace Simrell, of Carbondale, won back ninth place from Sidney W. Hayes, who deprived her of It last Friday. Tho special rewards offered for the contestants in this competition are worthy of serious consideration by every young man and woman in thi3 section of Pennsylvania. No opportu nity to equal this has even been of fered In this city before, and It should bo taken ndvnntago of. Less rthan three weeks' work now remain, nnd there nre as good chances for tho one who becomes a contestant now H3 there ever were.
