PUBLIC LIBRARY.
In compliance with article 3 of the by-laws of the Turner Free Library, the fourteenth annual report is herewith sub- mitted, showing the condition of the trust, the building, library, and funds, with extracts from the reports of differ- ent committees, and of the librarian, presented to the trustees, for the year ending December 31, 1889.
66
Trust.
The trust, which consists of the library building, library, funds invested, and the income arising therefrom, remains the same as in previous years.
Building.
The committee on building (consisting of Royal W. Tur- ner, Rev. J. C. Foster, John B. Thayer, and Michael J. Daly) report the total amount expended for the year ending Decem- ber 31, 1889, has been $777.95 : - gasoline and fuel, $362.51 ; expressing, $26.38 ; janitor, $125 : insurance, :$205.59 ; plumbing and repairs, $56.89 ; other sundry supplies, $11.58. The parties who have been supplied with light and heat have paid their proportionate part of the same, as assessed by the committee. The library building will require some repairs the present year.
Library.
The annual examination of the library was made in the month of July, by the library committee (consisting of Rev. J. C. Labaree, Rev. J. C. Foster, J. White Belcher, William H. Balkam, Jr.), and the library was found in its usual ex- cellent condition.
The trustees have authorized the librarian to prepare a new Supplementary Catalogue, which it is expected will be completed and ready for distribution about the first day of July next.
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.
67
The trustees are fortunate in still retaining the services of Dr. Farnham, who has had charge of the library since it was founded. His present assistant, Mrs. Howard, from her past experience is well fitted for the position.
The whole number of volumes in the library, Dec. 31, 1889 10,711

The committee on finance (consisting of John V. Beal, Charles G. Hathaway, John J. Crawford, J. Winsor Pratt, and Peter B. Hand) "report that they have examined the accounts of the treasurer, in compliance with Article 10 of the by-laws, and find that the bills and orders for expendi- tures which have been presented for payment, have been paid by the treasurer, upon the approval of the proper committee
69
of the library, and proper vouchers therefor, by him re- tained and placed on file, and that his accounts are in all respects true and accurate ; that a cash balance of $190.58 is now in the treasury. They further find that all the rents, the interest, and all the revenues from whatsoever source, have been duly collected and properly secured. The re- maining funds of the library, exclusive of the balance before mentioned, consist of $5,000 invested in a promissory note of the inhabitants of the town of Randolph, and the farther sum of $10,000, known as the 'Turner Fund,' invested as follows :
" Two bonds of Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad, $1000 each.
" Three bonds of Union Pacific Railroad, collateral trust, $1000 each.
" Three bonds of Kansas Pacific Railroad, $1000 each.
"Two bonds of Burlington & Missouri River Railroad, $1000 each.
" For the current year, the income is estimated as follows :
From rents,
$600 00
Interest on town note
200 00
From Turner Fund
580 00
$1380 00
It is recommended by the committee that the sun of five hundeed dollars be appropriated by the town for the ensu- ing year for the general expenses of the library.

FIRE DEPARTMENT.
HEADQUARTERS OF FIRE DEPARTMENT, RANDOLPH, March 1, 1890.
To the Selectmen and Citizens of Randolph :
The Board of Engineers of the Fire Department here- with submit the following Report.
On May 1, 1889, the department organized as follows :
Board of Engineers.
C. A. Wales, Chief; John Haney, D. J. Brennan, and Con. Desmond, Assistants ; W. A. Croak, Clerk.
Companies.
Steamer No. 1, A. J. Gove, Driver; J. H. Wales, Engi- neer ; F. J. Donahue, Fireman.

Fires.
April 1, 1889, 9.30 P.M., an alarm for a fire which proved to be in Avon called out the apparatus of House No. 1, which
71
proceeded about a mile up South Main St., and returned to the house.
April 10, 1889, 9.30 P.M., an alarm for a fire on Mill St., Holbrook, but near the Randolph line, called out the Depart- ment, which rendered some assistance to the Holbrook De- partment.
May 30, 1889, 9.20 P.M., an alarm called the apparatus of House No. 1 to the John Peach Factory on South Main St., where a slight fire was in progress on the outside of the rear of the building, which proved to be the contents of a tin can on fire. At about the same time an explosion occurred in the basement, which shattered several shoe-machines, and damaged doors, windows, floors, etc. The damage by fire very small.
Aug. 28, 1889, 1 p.M., fire was discovered on the roof of the dwelling owned and occupied by Daniel Kiley, on Mt. Pleasant Sq. Cause, spark from chimney. Damage slight. No alarm on the bells.
Nov. 28, 1889, 10.30 A.M., a call came from Chief Webber of the Boston Fire Department. Chief Wales responded, with two assistants and ten men, with Steamer No. 1, and they were taken to Boston by train, returning at 6.30 P.M., having been on duty at the Bedford, Kingston St. fire about four hours.
Dec. 4, 1889, 12.45 A.M., an alarm called the Department to the building on the corner of School and Main Streets, owned by Albert Hawes, and occupied by him as a market in the basement; P. Barron and Co., first floor, dry goods ; Dr. O. M. Sheridan, office, second floor ; and G. W. Pollock, dwelling, second and third floors. The fire started in a small room on the first floor, and burned up to the third floor, destroying that and the roof, damaging the building about $2,100, and the contents about the same. Hawes and Bar- ron insured, Pollock and Sheridan no insurance.
Feb. 5, 1890, 2.50 P.M., an alarm was rung for a fire in
72
the dwelling on Cross St. owned by Patrick Flood and occu- pied by John Flynn. The fire was confined to burning soot in the chimney.

Total expense,
$2,545 18
Total appropriation
2,200 00
Excess,
$345 18
As will be observed by the above figures the amount ex- pended has exceeded the amount of the appropriations, there- fore it is proper, and in order, that some statement of the reasons therefore should be made.
In the first place the committee on appropriations cut down the estimates of the Board of Engineers over $300.00. In the second place no appropriation is made for the twenty- five cents per hour service, which in this report amounts to $291.25, which would leave the actual excess of expenses $53.93. There were outstanding bills of the year before, amounting to about $75.00, which have been paid. We have also had the Ladder Truck and Chemical Engine placed in condition to be drawn by horses at an expense of $125.00.
74
This wus done with a view to reduce the number of men to the minimum, for as we have before suggested, or recom- mended, with the apparatus drawn by horses, and a good fire alarm system the work of the Department can be done with less confusion, smaller number of men, and as we believe with less expense when the Department shall have been brought to a good working basis with the apparatus complete, and, as a rule, housed under one roof.
The building of a Hose Wagon was awarded by contract to Mr. James Fardy, who has, we believe, built a first class wagon ; in his work he has been ably assisted by N. H. Tir- rell, who painted the same. We believe we have as good a wagon as can be found in the state.
Apparatus.
The apparatus of the Department is in good conditton, and consists of two steamers, one hose wagon, horse, one hose reel, hand, one hose reel, horse, one two wheel hose cart, hand, one chemical engine, one hook and ladder truck, three portable chemical extinguishers, two thousand seven hun- dred feet of canvas hose, extra ladders in the house of Steamer 2, and Chemical 1.
In accordance with the vote of the Town an effort has been made to sell one of the steamers, and hose reel No. 1, hand, parties dealing in fire apparatus have been consulted, adver- tisements have been inserted in several papers, as a result some correspondence has passed between the chief and pro- spective customers.
The ladders upon the truck have become weakened and worn from service, so much so that new ones will have to be purchased the coming year.
Houses.
While the houses of Steamer 2, and Chemical 1 are in fair condition, the house of Steamer and Hose 1 will soon need
75
extensive repairs, but before that is considered we think it would be wise for the town to consider the matter of a new house for this section of the town. A substantial brick building with modern improvements, and capable of housing all the principal apparatus, or at least one large enough to receive one steamer, one hose wagon, and a ladder truck with proper ladders upon it, which has never been done, and can- not be done in present house of Steamer 1; there is need of a hose tower attached to such a house, with height enough to take up a length of hose for drying, instead of the present method of placing hose out upon the ground for the sun to dry them, requiring the services of several men to take care of it. At present there are three houses in which fires are run through the cold weather, whereas with one commodious house with all apparatus in it that should be kept from freez- ing one fire would take the place of three. Then again, after every fire, all wet hose could be exchanged for dry hose at this house, thereby doing away with the need of fires at hose houses in the outlying districts. But perhaps we have said enough upon this subject at present ; for further information on this matter we would refer you to the committee appointed by the Town at the last annual meeting.
Fire Alarm.
The matter of a proper method of giving alarms for fires has occupied the attention of the Board of Engineers for several years past, and having alluded to the house accomo- dation, we will again call your attention to the subject of some kind of fire alarm. At present we have but one bell that can be used by the Department, and that is the one on the house of Steamer No. 1, the location being such that it cannot be heard at times only a short distance from the house, then the church bells are used, providing the parties holding the keys can be found.
76
What is needed is some system of alarm that can be used to better advantage than church bells rung at random ; a system whereby the whole Department or only a portion thereof can be called, as the case may require, thereby pre- venting confusion, saving expense, locating the fire for the information of men of the Department, whereby they may be able to be early on the spot, and ready for work. Such a system would prevent needless alarms in many instances, and enable the officer in command at fires to summon the men when needed without resorting to special couriers on horseback as in the past. For further information on this subject we would also refer you to the committee on Fire Department.
Estimate of Expenses.
The Board of Engineers have received a petition from the members of the several companies asking the Board to re- commend an increase of salary. While the Board do not approve of the form of the proposed increase as petitioned for, they would recommend that the pay of men be $12 per year, and fifty cents per hour for actual service at fires. One engineer of steamer, $40 ; one fireman of steamer, $30; and as new rubber coats for the men are needed, and new ladders for the ladder truck, including a Bangor ladder, we would recommend for general expenses $1000.

FOURTH ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS, OF THE TOWN OF RANDOLPH, ALSO
REPORT OF THE SUPERINTENDENT
FOR THE
YEAR ENDING FEB. 28, 1890.
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.
The fourth annual report of the Water Commisioners is hereby presented to the citizens of Randolph ; also the report of the Superintendent for the year ending Feb. 28, 1890.
During the past year the principal extension of the pipe has been on South Main Street, and a portion of Depot Street.
But few leaks have developed on the main line during the entire year, and those have been easily repaired.
The stand pipe in Holbrook has been repainted and is now in good condition.
The stand pipe in Randolph will require painting the com- ing year.
The hydrants and gates have all been examined and tested by the Superintendent and are believed to be in perfect work- ing order.
The pumping engine and machinery, built by the Holly Manufacturing Co., of Lockport, N. Y .. under their first con- tract, not having been accepted by Mr. M. M. Tidd, the engi- neer of the Randolph and Holbrook water works, said Com- pany proposed to build an entire new pumping engine, and until the same was completed and in working order to the satisfaction of said engineer, the said towns of Randolph and Holbrook were to have the use, free of expense, of the pump- ing engine already in operation. After a delay of nearly two years, on the thirteenth day of February, the present year, the new pumping engine was completed and, after a thoroughi trial, was approved by the engineer and accepted by the Water Commissioners.
80
It is but due to the parties representing the Holly Manu- facturing Co. to state that from the time the first contract was made with them, they have acted honorably and endeav- ored to fulfil the conditions of their contract in every par- ticular.
The Commissioners at the present time have under consid- eration the purchase of another pumping engine and boiler as was originally contemplated, so that in case of accident or needed repairs upon the engine or boiler now in operation, the supply of water for fire and other purposes would not be cut off.
During the year ending Feb. 28, 1890, the number of water takers has increased from 229 to 394.
The gross income received from water takers for the fifteen months ending Feb. 28, 1889, was $3,282.90; for the twelve months ending Feb. 28, 1890, was $3,794.16.
For statistical and other important information in relation to the Water Department, see report of the Superintendent.
The suits brought by the mill owners on Monatiquot river against the towns of Braintree, Randolph and Holbrook have been entered for trial at the civil session of the Superior Court, to be holden at Dedham, on the first Monday in May next. Hon. William Gaston and Asa P. French, Esq., have been retained as counsel for the towns of Randolph and Holbrook.
The action brought by John T. Langford in the Middlesex County Superior Court to recover the sum of $24,325.29, a balance claimed to be due him for laying pipes, was referred to Judge Edmund H. Bennett, of Boston, as Auditor, and after a hearing occupying several days, the decision of the Auditor was in favor of the towns of Randolph and Holbrook, since which time no further action has been taken towards a settlement by said plaintiff.
Under Section 6, Chapter 217, of the Acts of the Legisla- ture for the year 1885, the town is required each year to make a contribution to the sinking fund, which, with the ac-
81
cumulations thereof, will provide for the payment of the water bonds at maturity.
The amount already invested for said purpose consists of Three 4 1-2 per cent. Fitchburg railroad
bonds, $1,000 sach $3,000 00
Six Town of Randolph 4 per cent. water bonds, $1,000 each 6,000 00
Three Old Colony railroad 4 per cent. reg- istered bonds, $1,000 each 3,000 00
One Maine Central bond of $500 500 00
Deposited in Randolph Savings Bank
134 98
