TRUST.
The trust, which consists of the library building, library, funds invested, and the income arising therefrom, remains the same as last year.
BUILDING.
The committee on building (consisting of Royal W. Tur- ner, Rev. J. C. Foster, and John B. Thayer) report the total amount expended for the year ending December 31, 1887, has been $606.75 : - gasoline and fuel, $355.67 ; express- ing, $23.08 ; janitor, $126.60; insurance, $43.75 ; repairs, $38.66 ; other sundry supplies, $18.99. The parties who have been supplied with light and heat have paid their pro- portionate part of the same, as assessed by the committee. The building and contents are in good order and condition, and no large expense for the present year is anticipated. .
LIBRARY.
The annual examination of the library has been made by the library committee (consisting of Rev. J. C. Labaree, Rev. J. C. Foster, J. White Belcher, William H. Balkam, Jr., and Edwin N. Lovering), and the books were found in the same excellent condition as in former years.
The general work of the library varies but slightly from year to year, and beyond the usual statistics prepared by the librarian and the reports of the various committees there is but little of importance to communicate.

HOUSES.
The three engine houses are in good condition. The house of engine No. 2, and chemical engine No. 1, have been shingled the past year, and with minor repairs that have been made in all the houses we can report them in good condition, except that the floor of house of steamer 1, or rather its foundation, will need attention soon.
67
WATER SUPPLY.
On the application of the Superintendent of the Randolph and Holbrook Water Works, steamer No. 1 and horse hose 2 were taken to Holbrook on Oct. 24, 1887, to assist the Holbrook steamer to force water from a small pond on Weymouth street into the stand-pipe on Porter's Hill. On Nov. 26, 1887, the same apparatus were used to force water from a brook on South Main street, Randolph, into stand- pipe in rear of residence of Caleb Stevens on said street, about 2,300 feet of hose being laid for each machine.
On January 30, 1888, on the application of the Water Board, the Board of Engineers detailed several members of the Fire Department to assist in testing the fire hydrants, which took place at 1 o'clock P.M., in front of the town hall near the Warren street depot, Baptist church North Main street, and at the west corner near the residence of Mr. A. J. Towne. The Board of Engineers was present, also the Board of Water Commissioners, and many citizens of the town.
The exhibition proved very satisfactory in every respect, both the horizontal and perpendicular playing, and also the power of the stream. There were many favorable comments by those present upon the successful operation of the fire service as shown on this occasion, proving beyond a doubt that with the introduction of water through the pipes along our streets, there is now no further use for the bulky and cumbersome fire department of "ye olden time." At the conclusion of the exhibition .the firemen, by invitation of Mr. A. J. Towne, partook of a bountiful collation at his residence.
68
ESTIMATES OF EXPENSE, &C., FOR THE COMING YEAR.
Presuming that the town may desire some change that will conform to the new order of things, we would recom- mend that the town purchase a hose wagon to be used in place of one of the hose reels now in use ; for, as will readily be seen, a much smaller amount of hose will be needed than formerly on the occasion of a fire. There are various imple- ments that will be needed to increase the number of streams from the hydrants and to control the same, &c. We will therefore recommend the same amount of appropriation for Fire Department purposes as last year, as follows : Pay of men, $12 each, and 25 cents per hour for labor at fires ; engineers of steamers, $40 each ; firemen of steamers, $30 each ; $1,000 for general expenses.
