Report of the Superintendent of the Wayland Water Works.
GENTLEMEN : -
We have this year taken up and replaced with larger pipe two thousand (2,000) feet, eleven hundred (1,100 ) feet of four (4) inch and nine hundred (900) feet of two (2) inch. We have also laid nine hundred ( 900) feet of new service pipe, so we have laid twenty-nine hundred (2,900 ) feet of pipe this year. We have also had a large amount of service pipe to clean out.
We believe the time has come to increase the supply of water by enlarging the basin, as we believe we are too near the limit of sup- ply of the present basin for safety.
The maintenance account is :

Report of Engineers of Fire Department,
We beg to report the following fires, to which the department responded, for the year ending March 1, 1900 :
March 16. 7.50 A. M. Alarm from box 27, for fire in poultry house of Geo. Richardson, Happy Hollow road, which was extin- guished with small loss by our chemical extinguishers, property being situated beyond reach of hose.
April 18. 7.20 P. M. Alarm given from engine house for woods fire, rear of O. Atwell's, Pleasant street.
April 20. 11.30 A. M. Alarm from box 25, for wo ds fire near the above.
May 12. 1.10 P. M. Alarm given from engine house for woods fire, in Bullard's woods, near Lakeview cemetery.
August 22. 6.30 P. M. Lightning struck barn of Chas. E. Fiske, Wayland road, setting same on fire. The electrical storm at the time having burned out our fire alarm system, no regular alarm could be given. Although this, also, was beyond reach of hose, the department succeeded in saving the house and contents, the barn, only a few feet away, being totally destroyed.
November 10. 9.50 P M. Alarm given from engine house, also from box 24, for fire in barn of Jos. Mathieu, Willard street, which was partially destroyed. Contents total loss.
The department also responded to a false alarm, rung in, sup- posedly, by some one maliciously inclined.
53
In accordance with our recommendation of last year, the select- men have turned all matters pertaining to the department over to the Engineers, and we appointed W. C. Hunting, superintendent of fire alarm.
The carriages and equipments, and hose and coats, also the fire alarm system, we consider are kept in the best of condition, con- sidering what we have to do with. The two chemical extinguishers purchased last year have proven their value at every fire, more particularly in brush fires, and beyond reach of hose. We are hampered, however, in cold weather by the liability of their freez- ing in the engine house ; and would recommend that some system of heating the house be adopted for the coldest part of the year, at least.
We have received for firemen's pay, $448.00, and have turned over to the companies, $424.00, leaving an unexpended balance of $24 00 in our hands.
We have also received the $100.00 specially appropriated'for re- pairs, etc, last year, to which we have added the $14.63, unex- pended from the $500.00 appropriation of a year ago, which we have expended as follows : -
E. WV. Marston, labor and material on engine house $29 31

There never having been a foundation under engine house, we have put in cellar wall and new sills, dug out cellar two feet, and properly drained the same ; also, made such other repairs as were absolutely necessary. The house has been blinded and painted two coats.
Respectfully submitted,
E. W. MARSTON, Chief,
A. J. RICKER, Ist Asst., F. E. YEAGER, Clerk.

Report of the Library Building Committee.
To the Citizens of the Town of Wayland :
Your committee. respectfully submits the following report :
Your committee, with the assistance of Prof. Chandler, held an architectural competition for plans for the library building; and decided in favor of Cabot, Everett & Mead, whose plans offered the best solution of the problems presented to your committee.
Proposals were submitted by- numerous responsible contractors, and your committee awarded the entire contract to the lowest bid- der, Fales & Co., of South Framingham, Mass.
The work on the building has proceeded satisfactorily, excepting an unavoidable delay caused by the assignment of Fales & Co , for the benefit of their creditors. However, your committee is assured by the assignee that the contract will be speedily and properly completed.
The town's interests in the building are thoroughly protected. Twenty per cent. of the money due Fales & Company has been withheld, and the Fidelity and Deposit Company of Maryland is surety on their bond of ten thousand dollars to ensure the perform- ance of their contract.
Respectfully submitted,
WILLARD A BULLARD, E. W. MARSTON, C. B. WILLIAMS, ALFRED W. CUTTING, CHARLES F. RICHARDSON.

We recommend that the sum of six hundred and forty dollars be transfered from water rates to pay interest on water bonds.
That the selectmen be authorized to draw from the contingent fund such sums of money as may be necessary, not exceeding five hundred dollars, for assisting needy soldiers and their families.
That the selectmen be authorized to draw from the contingent fund, not exceeding five hundred dollars, to pay back salaries.
That the overseers of the poor be authorized to build a wagon and tool shed at the poor farm from money appropriated for sup- port of poor, if in their judgment there is sufficient money for that purpose.
That the sum of three thousand dollars be appropriated for interest on town debt to be taken from the contingent fund.
That the money for removing snow be drawn from the contin- gent fund.
We have carefully considered the needs of the various depart- ments and find that the sums recommended, if adopted, will meet the needs of the departments and are as low as can be safely recommended.
