LIE BOUTILLIER CELEBRATION
Drygoods Business Has Been in Same
Family Seventy Years.

Celebration of the SEVENTEEN anniversary
OF the beginning of their business of deal
ing in drygoods is a great event in the
history of lie Boutillier Brothers, whose
present establishment may be compared
in the minds eye of the oldest inhabitants
with the modest store in Broadway, next
door to the onetine residence of John
Jacob Astor. at Prince street, where this
firm made the start that led to greater

running through TO West I'D street, now
occupied by lie Boutillier Brothers, know
only of the extent of tho business at its
present location, the result of seventy years
Of growth.
Last Tuesday this firm began to ceIe-
brate its anniversary, and made elaborate
preparations for so doing. Much below
usual prices, drygoods are to go to the pub
lie as a mark of the esteem in which the
lie Boutiller firm holds all those who have
contributed TO it's success. There will be
a series of these underprice sales. They
will meet the public more than half way

LIE Boutilier Brothers have been doing
business. whether In the little store on
Broadway where they had their start or
in any of the four establishments they
have since occupied. honest treatment or
customers has been their ruling policy.
The lie Boutillier firm lays claim TO hav-

of them were employed by the firm in Sep
tember, 1851. Everything that appeals to
women on shopping bent awaits them at
lie Boutillier's. The methods of the estab-
lishment are such that anywhere within
hundred miles of New York goods can be
delivered free to customers. This step is
brought about by modern equipment and

CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS NEWS
PROTESTANT E PlSC0PAL HURCH NEEDS ENDOWMENT
FUND FOR DISABLED AND RETIRED MINISTERS.

The pressing need for an adequate en-
dowment fund for disabled and retired
ministers Of the Protestant Episcopal
Church has long been emphasized. That no
such fund has yet been raised despite the
earnest efforts of the Church Is fact
which may we'll cause surprise when one
considers tho enormous endowments that
are being constantly made for less needed
and less pressing endeavoTs.
After years of service ministers in the
Church who have no independent means or
their own, and who have been unable TO
save from their small salaries. may have
nothing better than the poorhouse TO look
forward to when age forces them TO retire
from active wOrk-certainly they cannot
expect suitable provision from the income
of the present endowment fund
This is indeed a sad state of affairs. and
one that the laity of the church as well as
its ministers and bishops should make
every effort to remedy. The former esRe-
cially should contribute TO such an endow-
ment fund literally, and il is doubtful II
donations could be made for anything bet
ter than TO relieve this situation.
1t is true that collections are devoted
from time to time for such an endowment
fund.- but these collections aggregate but
small amounts in comparison with the sum
needed, and so far no philanthropist has
seen fit to make any really large contribu-
tion.
The time has come for the clergy and
the bishops of the church TO bring the ques-
tion of this endowment fund more strongly
before the public than it has ever yet been
brought. When this is done some real re-
suits may be expected

GATHERED HERE AND THERE.

A bill now before Congress provides that
all migratory birds which, in their north
ern and southern migrations. pass through
or do not remain permanently the entire
year within the borders of any state or
territory, shall hereafter be deemed within
the custody and protection OF the govern
ment of the United States, and shall not be
destroyed or taken contrary 70 regulations
stated in the proposed act. This bill is pri-
marIly drawn for the protection Of such
game birds as geese, swans, ducks, snipe,
etc. but Our Dumb Animals" assures its
readers that if II passes it will enable the
federal government TO prevent the killing
Of all migratory birds, whether game birds
or others. If the report is true that 10000
robins have lately been killed in a period OF
three weeks in Tennessee, for the excellent
reason that they could be sold in the mar
ket for 10 cents a dozen, all lovers of that
friendly and serviceable bird will be inter-
ested in measure that promises to protect
him in his WanderingS.
