characteristic of the Maine men in Con-
gress, he was generally we'll informed on
public questions and capable Of discussing
intelligently anything brought into debate.
Personal Relations Cordial.
Though partisan in the House Cap
tain Boutelle had many bitter encounters
with men of the other party, and though
he not infrequently commended sharply with
members of his own side OF the House on
questions not of party significance, his
personal relations were almost universally
cordial through a long term Of service He
was fearless and generous and a good
friend. This assured him the respect and,
generally, the affection of his associates in
either party. The esteem in which he was
held was testified to by the promptness
with which Congress adopted the sugges-
ton to provide for his restoration to the
navy as captain on the retired list.
when he resigned from Congress on ac-
count of i'll health, early last winter.
Varied and Brilliant Career.
Capt. Boutelle had a brilliant career in
the navy during the war, having entered
the volunteer service. He was also sue

committee, belongs much of the credit for
the upbuilding of the navy to its present
rank among the navies OF the world. He
first entered the House of Representatives
from Maine at the opening Of the Forty
eighth and was in continuous service
until the beginning of the Fifty-SiXth Con-
greSs Though elected to the Fiftv-sixth
Congress, a sudden attack of illness pre-
vented his serving in that Congress. De-
cember u, 1899, he was seized with I'M
consciousness while in Boston. and never
recovered his health sufficiently to attend
to his congressional duties. Finally, at the
beginning of the closing session, he re-
signed and in compliance with a special
act of Congress, he was appointed captain
in the navy and placed on the retired list
His History.
Capt. Boutele was born in Lincoln coun-
ty, Maine, in 1889. His father was a ship

Later he commanded the Nyauza at the

Wing, and in 1874 its controlling owner
Two years later he was chosen a del gate
to the republican national convention at
Cincinnati. Unanimous nomination for Con-

his services. AT the republican convention
in Chicago he represented Maine on the ua-
tional republican committee.

free mail delivery ii is necessary
to do $4,000 worth of business

The receipts of the office from
July |. 1899, to July |. 1900, was
S7.435 2s, and from July l. of
last year to May |. of-this year the
receipts were SS,9l7 80 OF this
amount 81 SOB - worth of bust

fourteen days of this month, and
Postmaster Davie thinks that by
June lst $1,000 worth more bust
