Breadboarding it up with your Schematic, It does NOT WORK.
The First 3914 works, but the Second 3914 Does Not Work.
Joining Pins 4 & 8 Together on the Second 3914, allows it to Work, BUT it will NOT Adjust Correctly as Alex recommended it should.
And when LED's Above LED 10 are On, LED 10 Also Stay Lit up.
Resistors: 1/4 watt resistors are OK.
That PNP transistor is OK.
As to that CAPACITOR, Not sure on Correct Value, and until the Circuit Works to test it, there is no way to know what is the best value or type.
