9 cents each or four for sl, instead of three for Sl as heretofore. The resi- dents of Prescott certainly have no kick coming on the treatment they have received at the hands of the Prescott Electric company. Although the company has no competition it has kept the price of lights, fixtures and power down to the minimum, and the prices charged are lower in many cases than those charged in large cities where there is sharp con- petition and where such an institu- tion can be maintained and operated at much less cost.
 There are scores of openings for young men in the Philippines, accord ing to ocffiers of the insular bureau of the war department, and the next few weeks they will be filled. The largest number of places are for male teach CTS, but there are places as telegraph CTS, as officers of constabulary and as live stock inspectors. The depart ment is now arranging for the ap- pointment of l50 teachers. In every case they must be males except the immediate relatives of teachers who are already in the islands, or who are about to go there, or women who are betrothed to teachers. The exam nations for teachers will be held on March 29 and April 13. Their passage will be paid from the places where they are examined and accepted to Manila. The salaries will commence at the time of their appointment in this country. They will range from S9OO to s120O.
 The parlor talks at the residence of Mrs. J. L. Munds last evening by | Mrs. Yelling and Miss Broadbrooks, were very greatly enjoyed by all those present. On account of the storm there was not as many present as was hoped would be there, but the rescue work with which these ladies are interested was discussed in a very interesting and beneficial manner. Mrs. Yelling has charge of the Crit tenton rescue work in Trenton, New Jersey, and was commissioned by Chas. N. Crittenton, the founder of the Florence Crittenton homes to visit all the homes in the United States and try and increase and broaden the work. It is contemplated to add a hospital to the homes where ever it can be done. Mrs. Yelling left this morning for California where she will be a short time before re- turning to her home in New Jersey.
