REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF POLICE.
During the past year there have been seven cases of breaking and entering; nothing of very much value was taken, excepting in two cases, and in one case there was nothing taken ; for this crime four persons were arrested, but while the evidence was strong against them, and even after two of them admitted they had served sentence for larceny, the court found them not guilty, and they were discharged. Two men were arrested for an attempt to break and enter and were bound over to the Grand Jury. During the year we have procured search warrants and searched fifteen places, but liquor was found on only five of them. Six persons have been prosecuted for keeping liquor nuisances and one for illegal transporting of liquor. Of all offences for which arrests are made in this section, none compare in point of interest to that of drunkenness, princi- pally because there are no crimes of a startling nature com- mitted here, and to the fact that license or no-license occupies so large a share of the public's attention.
The search of the places doing an illegal traffic, has been carried on with earnestness, notwithstanding the discourag- ing elements connected with it. Take the case of illegal transportation ; while the officer was convinced in his own mind that the defendant was doing an illegal business, and the evidence was strong against him, yet the law is such, that under the name of express, the beer peddlers find a "cloak" whereby they can do business without much fear of detection, and they are in most cases discharged when prosecuted.
The officers are obliged to depend on their own observa- tions for evidence to convict a person of a violation of this law, as good citizens, who would assist an officer in any other matter, decline to make any disclosures in regard to the illegal sale of liquor. By a vote of the town in March, the force was increased one man, and Andrew Irwin was
123
REPORT OF THE CHIEF OF POLICE.
appointed patrolman. By this appointment we have been enabled to give the upper portion of the town better pro- tection than ever before.
It is a well known fact that the Sunday travel to Arling- ton during the summer has increased very much since the advent of the electric cars, and it brings many of a lawless disposition.
I would recommend such an increase of appropriation as would enable special officers to be employed on Sundays, when they may be required to look after this element.
In submitting my report I desire to thank the honorable Board of Selectmen, also Town Clerk, B. Delmont Locke, and Wm. H. H. Tuttle for counsel and friendly advice.
I have endeavored to discharge the duties of the office faithfully and impartially, and have the honor to be, gentle- men,
Your obedient servant, EUGENE MEAD, Chief of Police.
ANNUAL REPORT
OF THE
CHIEF ENGINEER OF THE ARLINGTON
FIRE DEPARTMENT,
-
To the Selectmen of Arlington :
GENTLEMEN - In compliance with the rules and regula- tions I have the honor herewith to submit to you the Annual Report of the Fire Department for the year ending Dec. 31, 1889.
The fire loss for the year has been exceptionally light. The Department has answered seventeen calls. Value of buildings damaged by fire, $20,175; insurance on build- ings and contents, $16,625 ; insurance paid, $6,362.
NEW APPARATUS.
In accordance with a vote passed at the town meeting held in April, a committee was appointed to purchase a chemical, which committee after devoting considerable time to the matter purchased a Babcock Chemical Engine, said engine being located at the Highland Hose House.
125
REPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.
At a meeting held in November the town voted to pur- chase land and build a house at Arlington Heights for the location of the chemical. It will be necessary to form a company when the building is completed, and a horse should be kept in the building for the purpose of drawing above mentioned engine.
That this chemical may be of service to any other portion of the town a striker should be placed on the bell of the church tower at the Heights.
FIRE ALARM.
1
A committee consisting of the Selectmen and the Engineers was appointed to purchase a telegraph fire alarm, and the committee, after consulting with other engineers and visiting other cities and towns having a fire alarm sys- tem, decided upon the Gamewell Telegraph Fire Alarm as the most desirable, which system has been duly established.
We have at present sixteen signal boxes, one striker on the Highland Hose House, one fifteen-inch gong in House No. 4 on Henderson street, and an eight-inch whistle on S. A. Fowle's mill.
I would respectfully suggest that six more boxes be added as soon as convenient as follows :- One at the lower end of the town at the corner of Broadway and North Union street, one corner of Warren and Park, one at the corner of the Avenue and Schouler court, one on Mystic street near Mr. Huffmaster's, and one on Lake street. Also that a striker be placed on the bell of the Wm. Penn House.
The efficiency of this fire alarm has proved itself to be of valuable assistance in case of fire, although we have had but two genuine alarms since the line was completed.
126
REPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.
BUILDINGS AND APPARATUS.
The buildings are in good condition as well as the appara- tus. Swinging harness have been placed in the Wm. Penn and Highland Houses with patent collars, thereby saving a great amount of valuable time. The Highway Department have furnished horses for the past year, for the use of which we pay this Department at the rate of $100 per horse.
SALARIES.
The firemen receive $35 per year, with the exception of the Eagles who receive $10 apiece for fire service below Lake and Winter streets.
The chemical being placed in the Highland House made it necessary to increase the company by two members, which company will assume its original number when the chemical is removed from the building.
APPROPRIATIONS.
I would recommend an appropriation to meet the current expenses for the ensuing year of $3000. -
PERSONAL RECOGNITION.
I take this opportunity to thank your honorable Board, the Engineers, and members of the Department for their aid and support during the past year.
Respectfully submitted,
CHARLES GOTT.
REPORT
OF THE
TRUSTEES OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY
To the Town of Arlington :
The Trustees of the Library have no very detailed report to make for 1889. With an institution so well established as this, one year must necessarily be much like another, and the twelve months just passed have presented little to call for special comment. The figures in the Librarian's Statement appended to this report show that the use of the Library in- creases with the growth of the town. New names are con- stantly added to the list of takers of books, while it is safe to say that those who have once become well accustomed to use the Library are not likely to leave off.
Miss Newton remains in charge of the Library, and her devotion to its interests is too well known to all who frequent it to call for special mention here. Necessarily as the Library grows in size and use, the work of the Librarian changes in character and becomes less obvious to the public than it used to be when one person could do substantially all that was to be done, but it is more responsible and difficult. It now largely consists in the careful selection of books from the great number that are constantly being issued ; in the thorough
128
REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY.
analysis and cataloguing that the experience of modern libraries shows to be the best means to make books do the most good, and in personal help and direction to readers. The ordinary work of receiving and giving out books, keep- ing accounts with readers, keeping books in repair, and the like, falls now in great part to the assistants. It is only right to say a word in praise of the faithful way in which they perform their multifarious duties, and of their readiness to oblige, and willingness to aid those who come for books. The assistants are not paid by fixed salaries, but according to the time during which they are employed ; at some hours it being possible for the Librarian alone to attend to every thing necessary, while at other times several persons are needed.
The reading-room is an attractive and popular part of the Library. In general, the order, propriety and respect for the rights of others shown by its users are commendable- even young children behaving with an admirable understand- ing of the manners appropriate to such a place ; any thought- lessness being readily checked by those in charge. There was, however, some disturbance there last Fall, not of a very serious nature, but likely to lead to greater trouble in future if not suppressed at once. The Chief of Police took charge of the matter and fines were imposed by the District Court upon those who were guilty of the offence. This action seems to have put an end to any disposition to make trouble. If anything of the kind should again happen, the Trustees pro- pose to take similar measures, to the end that quiet and well- disposed persons shall not be annoyed.
The new catalogue was distributed at the beginning of the year,-a well-printed and attractive book. In style and arrangement it differed from the former catalogues, but the public soon became accustomed to it. No pains were spared to make it correct and convenient, and it is apparently well
REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF PUBLIC LIBRARY. 129
liked. In it are included all the books which were in the Library at the end of 1888. By permission of the Select- men, a title-list of books added in 1889 is printed with this report. This method of publication is in use in other towns and has been found good, as the additional expense is not great and the list of books is in a convenient place for reference. The list as printed is really a consolidation of the separate lists printed from time to time in the Advocate.
The weekly delivery of books at Arlington Heights has been successfully continued, under the charge of Miss Lucy C. Bailey. The Trustees would again call the attention of the residents of that part of the town-especially those who have recently come and may not be familiar with the system -to the advantages of a plan whereby books are delivered to them in their own neighborhood, without expense, thus saving them a journey to the centre of the town.
The Trustees desire also to call attention to their plan mentioned in the last report, which has been in use some years, of getting the help of users of the Library, in the choice of books. Any one who knows of a book which is not in the Library, and which he thinks ought to be there, may fill out a printed form to be obtained at the desk, rec- ommending the same. If the Trustees get the book, and they usually do so, unless it is very costly, or is of a specially technical character or otherwise unsuited to a Library like this, the person recommending it is at once informed of its arrival, and has, if he likes, the privilege of the first reading.
The Trustees desire again to commend the Library to the continued favor of the town. It is in the best sense a public institution, designed to be of as much service as it can be to every one who comes to it; and all those connected with it are glad to do what they can to bring about this result.
