The attention of the Committee was called early in the year to the fact that the lower reading room was opened to the public at the hour of 7 o'clock A. M., and until the arrival of the attend- ants at 9 o'clock, had only the casual oversight of the janitor, then engaged about the building in his morning duties. In the short days of the year this involved the lighting of gas and some- times the use of matches by persons unknown and possibly irre- sponsible. The Committee were loath to discourage early rising, but could not countenance any practice which seemed to put the valuable contents of the Library to even the slightest risk. Finding the use of the room between 7 and 8 o'clock to be very limited, they ordered it to be kept closed until 8 and secured the special services of an attendant between the hours of 8 and 9. The Committee have heard no complaint of this new rule.
The Reading Room has been opened every day in the year, the number of hours being limited on Sundays and holidays. The periodicals, now kept for want of a better place in the Green

FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY.
Library, have also been constantly accessible to the public. So far as the Committee are informed, the behavior of the visitors has been uniformly discreet and dignified.
The accumulation of bound volumes of newspapers and peri- odicals already nearly fills two rooms in the upper story of the building. About a hundred volumes of magazines and seventy- five of newspapers are added every year. It is a collection of great value to local historians and biographers and is occasionally necessary to students in every branch of science. Its use must steadily increase and its completeness will depend on the means at the disposal of this Committee now and in years to come.
It is a pleasant, though perhaps superfluous amenity, to say that the Committee have been throughout the year in entire accord with the Librarian.
For the Committee.
CHARLES H. DOE, Chairman.

REPORT
OF THE
COMMITTEE ON THE BUILDING.
To the President and Directors of the Free Public Library :
THE increasing use of the library, and the inconvenience already experienced in serving the public and properly caring for the books in the crowded space at present occupied by them, confirm the opinion expressed in the reports of 1874, that one of the most pressing require- ments of the library is more room. We still believe that a proper elevator which will give safe, easy, and rapid transit to and from all the floors of the library building, will make available the much needed room at the greatest economy of first cost and of future mainte- nance. The cost of such an elevator need not exceed two thousand dollars; which sum would hardly pay for excavation and foundation for a building that would give an equal amount of space, on a level, with the circulating department and the Green library, did the city own sufficient land adjacent on which to build.
To insure safety in case of fire, we recommend that iron shutters be placed on three or four of the windows at the south end of the build- ing. The estimate of cost of the same is about one hundred dollars.
The cost of cases, shelving, repairs, and furniture for the past year, has been, in round numbers, two hundred and seventy dollars. We estimate that a somewhat larger sum will be required for the coming year, as more thorough repairs of the roof may be needed.
Respectfully submitted by Committee on the building.
CHAS. H. MORGAN,
Chairman.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES.
To Hon. Clark Jillson, and the City Council of the City of Worcester :
THE Trustees of the City Hospital respectfully present their Sixth Annual Report.
CONDITION OF THE HOSPITAL.
This charitable institution, which is alike an honor to our city and to those broad and enlightened men who procured its estab- lishment, now enters upon the seventh year of its usefulness with greatly increased opportunities for satisfactorily performing the work for which it was designed. In the first location of the Hospital on Front street, room was offered for the treatment of only 6 male and 6 female patients. When the removal took place to the Jaques Homestead 8 male and 8 female patients could be provided with accommodation, and since February last when the two new wards or pavilions were put in operation the number of males has been increased to 13, that of the females to 10. The whole number of patients treated since the opening of the Hospital in 1871 has been 901, and during the past municipal year 201 patients have been received.
On the 2nd of September, Dr. Charles A. Peabody, Superin- tendent and Resident Physician at the Hospital, tendered his resignation to the Trustees, as he was about to leave the country to fill the position of Port Physician at Bombay, India. The Trustees regretted the loss of an able and faithful physician and an officer of large administrative capacity, but they rejoiced that a larger field of usefulness was open to him. On the 19th of September, Dr. J. Bartlett Rich of Bethel, Maine, a physician
456
CITY DOCUMENT .- No. 31.
highly recommended and of considerable experience, was appoint- ed to fill the vacancy, and he continues to discharge the duties of Superintendent and Resident Physician to the entire satisfac- tion of the Trustees.
The Medical Staff, consisting of three consulting and twelve visiting physicians, together with an Oculist and Aurist and a Pathologist, continue to give their valuable services gratuitously to patients, two of the visiting physicians having charge of the Hospital for each two months of the year in succession ; and in critical cases or for capital operations the advice and assistance of the whole staff is called upon. The advice of so large a number of skilled physicians in consultation, thus offered to patients at this Hospital, is a privilege which cannot be obtained by the most favored of the community outside its walls, and should not be overlooked.
Each year brings with it some decided improvements in the routine management of the Hospital, whereby the comfort of patients is promoted and more favorable conditions are offered for the treatment of disease, and the most gratifying results, as the tables appended by the Resident Physican will show, have attended the experience the past year.
NEW WARDS.
The two pavilions authorized by the City Council the last year have been completed and occupied since February. The larger of these, ward G, is a building of one story, 25 by 37 feet and 14 feet in height in the clear. It has closets and a bath-room connected with it, and provides 8 beds for male patients. The smaller building, ward F, is also one story in height, 25 by 27 feet. It has a bath-room and closets attached, and a single room for the treatment of special cases which it may be desirable to separate. This building is used for male surgical patients and contains 5 beds. Both the pavilions have been ventilated on the plan introduced by Mr. A. B. Brown, which together with open fire places and windows constructed to partially open at the top make the rooms less liable to objection, than most public and by far the larger number of private sick rooms. This twofold oppor-
457
CITY HOSPITAL.
tunity of ventilation gives the means of securing an abundant supply of fresh air at all times, which is a most important agen- cy in the successful treatment of diseases and wounds. The Trustees consider the experiment with isolated pavilions success- ful, and they expect that this system of construction of Hospital wards will be followed in the future. All the male patients are provided for in the new pavilions, and the rooms in the main building are now occupied by females. By this means the con- venience and easy management of these departments of the Hospital is greatly promoted.
HOSPITAL FUNDS.
This institution possesses three funds now in the custody of the City Treasurer, the largest of which, the Jaques Fund, consists of the personal assets of the late George Jaques, together with the interest and accumulations accruing since his decease. This fund represents only a part of the bequest of Mr. Jaques, for the real estate now in the control of the City makes a part of his legacy. By the will of Mr. Jaques all his real and personal estate was given to the City of Worcester in trust to be applied to the use and benefit of the institution known as the City Hos- pital, to be set apart as a separate fund, the income of which alone can be applied to the support and maintenance of the Hospital. The most valuable part of the real estate is now occupied for hospital purposes, and during the past year no advantageous opportunity has been offered for disposing of other portions of Mr. Jaques' estate.

Value of Fund December 1, 1875,
$17,007 85

The Isaac Davis Fund was created by Hon. Isaac Davis in 1873, who gave $1,000.00 to the Hospital, which sum is to accu- mulate until it becomes $2,000.00; after which time "the income
458
CITY DOCUMENT .- No. 31.
is to be applied to the support of poor and destitute persons who are admitted to the Hospital and are unable to pay their expenses while there." When this fund has reached its maximum, the in- come will assist in relieving a class of cases not otherwise pro- vided for, as for example, for destitute and deserving persons not residents of Worcester, who may be suddenly taken ill while in the city, who, if they were treated in Worcester gratuitously, would be liable on removal to be treated as objects of public charity at home, after being thus considered here. Such cases will be hereafter, in part, provided for by this fund.

The Curtis Library Fund was given by Albert Curtis, Esq., in 1875, to provide permanently for replenishing the Medical and Surgical Consulting Library which he had previously established at the Hospital. This Fund is to be maintained at the amount of $1,000.00 ; the income, or interest thereof, to be expended at the discretion of the Trustees, in procuring books, maps, plates, and other apparatus which may in their judgment aid and assist medical and surgical operations.

The rate of mortality (5.47) has been less than that of any previous year. Out of the 11 deaths 6 occurred from very severe injury. The number of accidents admitted (23) is the smallest that has occurred. The deaths from disease have been five which makes the rate lower than last year. Though the number of accidents is less than last year the mortality from them has been increased.
Several applications for admission have been made by women about to be confined, which have been refused.
One foundling was left at the Hospital during the year.
The State aids in support of patients not having a settlement in Massachusetts.
In all cases where the circumstances of the patient will war- rant the whole or part of the board is paid. The average price paid the past year was $7.50 per week.
When anything not usually furnished by the Hospital is provided, a reasonable payment is required.
When patients having settlement in other towns are received, remuneration has been required, during the past year, to the extent of $10 per week, which is about the cost to the city of each patient.
The daily average number of patients for the past four months has been largely increased.
If the increase continue, it is not unlikely that when the efficiency of the new system of ventilation, now on trial, and the utility of the present mode of building have been more accu-

rately tested, that new measures will be necessary and devised to increase the capacity and usefulness of the Hospital.
The patients' library has been considerably increased by dona- tions of books, monthlies and papers, and in one case by a gift of $20 to purchase books.
It has been largely used and afforded much enjoyment to a large class of patients.
There have also, been donations of flowers, articles of clothing and bundles of linen, which have contributed considerable to the usefulness of the Hospital, and are always acceptable.
The favorable results of the past year must, in no small measure, be attributed to the increased capacity of the Hospital and the judicious management of Dr. Peabody who was Super- intendent until the last of September.
It is gratifying to his successor that in all his endeavors to promote the interests of the Hospital, his efforts, are in all particulars subject to the close and frequent inspection of the Board of Trustees and a Medical Staff which spares no pains in securing the welfare of the patients.
