Arlington Avenue.
The most extensive piece of work the Highway depart- ment has had, has been on this avenue from Alewife brook up to Linwood street, on account of moving the horse-car tracks to the middle of the street, which the town voted to have done at the March meeting. Before this work was
finished, the County Commissioners came on and ordered the street to be widened in various places, which has been done as far as we were able to do before winter set in. The sand and loam taken from the old horse-railroad location have been used to fill in the low places near the brook, and

SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
in its place a good depth of crushed stone and gravel has been placed, making a good hard road and a broad avenue to the Cambridge line. Whenever the city of Cambridge widens the street on their side of the brook, a new bridge will have to be built and also some land damages paid, which will have to be provided for another year. Portions of the avenue from the Lexington line down to the lane leading to the stone crusher have been repaired and the street is in good order thus far, but from this point down to the Electric R. R. terminus, the road will need considerable repairing next year. A 15-inch drain-pipe has been put- across the road at the foot of Jason street, which takes the surface water from that vicinity and is a great benefit to the avenue in wet weather.
Academy Street
Has been gravelled in places and the gutters have been cleaned out. The drainage of this_ street is getting to be a serious problem ; the abutters on one side object to having the water run through their land and on the other side complaints are made of water in the cellars and puddles in the street. Some plan should be devised whereby this can be remedied, especially now that new territory is being opened for building purposes on the high lands above.
Beacon Street
Has been repaired by crowning with gravel and opening out the gutters.
Bartlett Avenue.
That portion accepted by the town has been graded and the road bed crowned with gravel mostly taken from the high parts of the street.
10
SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
Forest Street.
This street, although very little used by the citizens of our town, is an expensive one to keep in repair. A great portion, being a steep grade and taking the water from the hills around, gets badly washed every year. It has been put in good order by opening out the gutters, crowning the road bed, and making culverts across the street.
Florence Avenue.
The road has been crowned with gravel and a gutter paved on one side from Park avenue to Hillside avenue.
Hillside Avenue.
A portion of this street, being of a loamy nature in its foundation, was a source of inconvenience to travellers in wet weather. It has been well crowned with stone and gravel and is now in good shape.
Henderson Street.
Very little work has been done on this street for the past few years and it was much in need of repairs. That portion accepted by the town has been graded and coated with stone and gravel and is now in good order.
Jason Street.
One thousand dollars was granted by the town for the grading of this street. As there was a large surplus of stone and gravel to remove, this material was used to repair other streets in the neighborhood, and by giving credit to Jason street for this, we were able to keep within the ap- propriation. Curbstones have been set at some of the side- walks and the street is greatly improved.
11
SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
Mill Street
Has been repaired mostly with gravel taken from Jason street. The lowest portion near the mill has been raised, the road bed crowned, and the drainage improved, so that it will need very little work on it for some years to come.
Mystic Street.
A portion of this street has been crowned with stone and gravel, gutters have been opened out, and a sidewalk made. There still remain a few places where water stands in wet weather which can be attended to another year.
Medford Street
Has been repaired where needed with stone and gravel. The bridge over Mystic River has been replanked and railing repaired.
Oakland Avenue
Has been crowned with stone and gravel.
Oak Street.
This street is so situated as to require more or less repairs every spring and fall. Although little used, it must be kept in a safe condition for travel. 'The gutters have been cleaned out, culverts opened, and the road bed has been crowned with gravel.
Park Avenue.
Repairs have been made on the upper part of this avenue by grading the road bed and opening gutters. Some con- creting is needed on the gutters, which should be attended to next year.
12
SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
Pleasant Street.
Very little has been done on this street the past year. It is in good order with the exception of a short piece which should be macadamized next year. In Pleasant street place the gutters have been concreted, sidewalks repaired, and the street has been made the proper width as accepted by the town.
Summer Street.
That portion between Mill street and Fowle's Mill has been renovated by cutting out the brush, removing trees, and making a sidewalk. The road has been graded and is now in good order.
Warren Street
Has been gravelled in places, the drain pipe taken up, cleaned out, and relaid.
Webster Street.
This street has been graded, sidewalks have been repaired, and the drainage has been improved.
Sidewalks
Have been repaired in various places by using the dust coming from the stone crusher, which proves to be a very good material for the purpose, and a large amount of con- crete sidewalks has been recoated. There are still many other places where the concrete is badly worn and should be attended to next year. About 1800 feet of curbstones have been set, the abutters furnishing the stone and the town doing the labor.
13
SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
Watering Streets. 1
A portion of the street watering was let out by contract, the highway department having all they could attend to on the roads. Mr. Warren A. Peirce, being the lowest bidder, was awarded the contract. The remainder was done as usual by the teams of the highway department, the abutters pay- ing a portion of the expense.
Teams and Tools.
The highway department has eight horses, one of which is now unfit for service, and should be replaced by another in the spring. One pair are kept in the Highland hose house to do duty at fires, and a shed has been built in the rear to store the carts, etc., used by them when working on the highways. The tools have been kept up to their usual standard.
Stone Crusher.
In February the new building was finished and machinery put in. It has done good work and a large amount of stone has been crushed and placed upon the roads at a much less cost than under the old system. In fact we would hardly have been able to accomplish some of this year's work with- out it. Some little repairs will be needed in the spring and it will be in good order for another year. A large amount of stone has been taken out of the town gravel pits, but not enough to supply the demand, and considerable has been purchased.
Almshouse.
The buildings are in good repair and very little will be needed on them the coming year. Many of the small repairs
14
SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
have been done by the Superintendent, Mr. Darwin A. Proctor, who, with his wife, seem to have the faculty of keeping the premises in good order, and of caring for the inmates.
The sanitary arrangements of the house should be improved the coming year. The vaults and drains, having been in use so many years, are fast becoming a nuisance and dangerous to the health of the inmates. We would recommend the making of a large cesspool at a good distance from the house and draining into it all the sewage and waste water from the buildings.

Cemeteries.
The grounds under the superintendence of Mr. J. H. Hartwell are kept in good order. The town tomb has been thoroughly repaired, the hearse house shingled and a new fence built across the lower end of the occupied portion of the cemetery. We would again recommend that the ceme- tery committee be allowed to draw on the money coming from the sale of lots, when it is needed for repairs or im- proving the grounds.
An article was inserted in the warrant at the last meeting to see what action the town would take on the question of receiving money for the perpetual care of lots. It was voted that not less than $200 be accepted from each lot owner, and that the income be devoted to that purpose. Your Committee were requested to report in print at some future meeting in regard to making additions and alterations in the by-laws of the cemetery.
We make the following recommendations :
FIRST. The Trustees of Soldiers' Monument Fund, Robbins' Fund and Cemetery Committee shall be consolidatcd in one board and elected one for one year, one for two years and one for three years. They shall have the same power and authority that is now vested in the above boards.
SECOND. No monument, tablet, or any structure shall be placed in the grounds without a proper foundation, said foundation to be placed by the Trustees or under their direc- tion.
THIRD. The Trustees shall be limited in investment of funds in their hands to same investments as allowed by the Commonwealth for Savings' Bank funds.
FOURTH. The Trustees may sell and convey lots to residents at schedule prices, and by vote of the town to non- residents at one hundred per cent. advance.
16
SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
FIFTH. The Trustees may receive funds for the perpetual care of lots, but no sum less than $200 shall be accepted. The funds received shall constitute a repair fund, the sur- plus after care of lots may be used for the care of the grounds.
SIXTH. The Town Treasurer shall be Secretary and Treasurer of the Cemetery Committee. .
Town House.
The building has been renovated on the outside by cutting off the old mastic and painting the walls. The inside is in a fair state of repair, but we would recommend that some painting and whitening be done in the halls the coming year. The roof will need reslating before long. It has been patched many times in the last few years, but still it is diffi- cult to make it water tight, and the only way to make tho- rough work will be to take off all the old slate and replace with new.
The time will soon arrive, if it is not already here, when this building will be too small for the accommodation of the town, and while we do not recommend that any unnecessary expense be put upon it, it should be kept in good condition, as it will be valuable for business purposes whenever it shall cease to be used as a town hall.
Street Lights.
Six thousand four hundred dollars was granted by the town for street lights. There are 25} arc and 193 incan- descent lights. . The town of Belmont pays for one-half of one arc light at the junction of the towns on Pleasant street.
17
SELECTMEN'S REPORT.
Coal.
In accordance with the usual custom, bids were requested for supplying the town with coal.
Mr. Warren A. Peirce, being the lowest bidder, was awarded the contract.
The prices were $5.45 and $5.70 for furnace coal ; $4.70 for Cumberland coal; $6.20 for H. B. Lehigh coal ; $5.95 for stove coal.
Licenses.
We have issued one sixth class license, in accordance with Chapter 431 of the Acts of the Legislature for 1887.
Police.
The force now consists of a chief and four patrolmen. Details will be found in the report of the Chief.
Fire Department.
The Chief Engineer's and Treasurer's Reports will furnish the details of this department.
