The force consists of chief, sergeant and four patrolmen, officer Barry having been made sergeant the first of the year. In my report two years ago I asked for another officer to enable me to divide the route at the lower part of the town. This should be done.


We should have a telephone at Arlington Heights, also one at the lower part of the town, so that an officer can communicate with the station when necessary, as it often is. We can hardly expect to have the police signal system for some time yet, so two telephone boxes would be of much service at very little cost.


Five persons have been prosecuted for violating the liquor law, three of whom were convicted. Persistent efforts have been made to prevent the sale of intoxicating liquors, and to prosecute and convict offenders.


In order to successfully prosecute offenders against the liquor law, we must have testimony that will convict, and we are continually on the alert to procure such evidence, for it is worse than useless to proceed otherwise. Frequently it takes months to get such evidence.


In closing my report I wish to thank the Board of Selectmen for their encouragement and assistance to me the past year, and the entire force for the prompt and will- ing discharge of their duties.


I am respectfully, EUGENE MEAD,


Chief of Police.

MEMBERSHIP.


The membership is the same as in the last report, the Department consisting of the same number of men.


BUILDINGS.


The buildings are in fair condition. A new furnace has been placed in the Chemical House and the floor of the cellar has been cemented.


122


REPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.


I would call your attention to the expiration of the lease of the land on which stands the building occupied by Hose No. 4. This lease expires in June.


APPARATUS.


The apparatus is in about the same condition as when last report was made.


Hose Wagon No. 2 needs to be varnished.


I would suggest that a pole be added to the Chemical Engine for a pair of horses.


Hose No. 3 should be repainted.


A new hose trough should be placed in the Wm. Penn Hose House immediately. We have at present 3800 feet of good hose, 500 feet of which was purchased this year.


Company No. 2 have been provided with new hats, and badges have been purchased for the Hook and Ladder Com- pany during the past year.


I would once more respectfully suggest that a four-way post hydrant be placed near the Town House and also that a new hydrant be placed on Lake street near the tenement building of Wyman Bros., and one on Medford street, near house of P. T. Hendrick opposite the cemetery.


FIRE ALARM.


Although the Fire Alarm has given us no trouble during the past year, it needs, however, great care and constant attention.


The line on the avenue above the Railroad crossing as far as Park avenue has been changed to the left hand side of the street in order to avoid contact with the electric light wires.


Two new boxes have been purchased this year, making the change in location of two numbers on Pleasant street.


As now located, box 35 is situated between Wellington and Addison streets, and the new box 34 is situated on Pleasant street, opposite Gray street. Also new box 4 is located on Jason street near the residence of Wm. P. Night-


123


REPORT OF CHIEF ENGINEER.


ingale. Keys are placed in the houses in the immediate vicinity of said boxes.


I would call your attention to the fact that the lease of the steam furnished for the Fire Alarm Whistle expires the coming October.


FIREMEN'S RELIEF ASSOCIATION.


I would report that this Association has paid out one hundred and seventy-seven dollars for sick benefits and forty-nine dollars for one death benefit.


The Association has sustained a loss of one of its mem- bers. I refer to our ex-foreman, the late G. P. Peirce.


APPROPRIATIONS.


I would recommend an appropriation of four thousand two hundred dollars to meet the expenses of the coming year.


In closing I desire to express my thanks to your honor- able Board, to my Engineers for their assistance, and to the members of the Department for the cheerful manner in which they have aided me in the discharge of duties.


Respectfully submitted.


CHARLES GOTT,


Chief Fire Department.


REPORT


OF THE


TRUSTEES OF THE ROBBINS LIBRARY.


To the Town of Arlington :


The new Robbins Library having now been occupied for more than a year, and ample time having thus been afforded to judge of the actual working of the library in the new building the Trustees desire to state that they have been very much gratified at its fitness for library purposes.


It has proved admirably adapted to the convenience both of its patrons and the librarian.


The increase in the number of Trustees trom three to six has been found very satisfactory.


It not only affords an opportunity for different parts of the town and different interests to be represented, but enables the Board to apportion the duties among its members, which has already been done, in a measure, by the appoint- ment of two sub-committees, one on books and another on the building.


There have naturally been some unusual expenses during the first year in a new building, such as screens for the windows and doors, wires and fixtures for a few additional electric lights, in particular locations, where it was found by experience that they were needed, and other minor matters. Then the building not having been occupied until quite late in the fall of 1892, and consequently the coal for the follow-


125


REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF ROBBINS LIBRARY."


ing winter not having been bought and the bills paid during the previous summer as usual, we have had to pay the bills for two years' coal supply from our appropriation for 1893. For these reasons we have been obliged to curtail the expen- ditures, especially the amount expended for new books.


Miss Dupee has been employed afternoons in the reading room, not only to look after the room, but to advise readers, especially children, and to assist them in obtaining the par- ticular books needed.


This task she has performed to the entire satisfaction of the Trustees and we trust of the public also.


As the usefulness of the library depends not so much upon the number of books it contains, as upon the methods by which they are made easily available to the public, this advisory work in the reading room seems to us very impor- tant, and it is hoped that persons will avail themselves freely of the services of the attendant, who from her familiarity with the books and the card catalogue can often save them considerable time.


During the year many valuable suggestions have been made by the Superintendent of Schools in regard to books which are useful to the school children, and in some instances duplicates have been purchased for their use.


The Trustees believe that the library is becoming more helpful to the schools than is commonly the case.


The continued interest of Mr. Winfield Robbins in the library has been evinced by various valuable gifts during the year. As the citizens are well aware we are indebted to him for the two beautiful bronze statues which stand in the rotunda, also the medallion heads of American authors, hang- ing in the catalogue room. Mr. Robbins has also given a fine collection of Confederate money, which may be seen in a small room, opening from the gallery.


The branch at the Heights has been continued as formerly for a reading room and for the delivery of books.


There is considerable interest in the reading room, and the number of books sent there is large.


126


REPORT OF TRUSTEES OF ROBBINS LIBRARY.


It will be noticed that the whole number of registered book borrowers, as given in the Librarian's Statement, is about one-half the number returned a year ago. There has been no actual decrease in the number of persons taking out books, but the smaller number given, is the result of a revi- sion of the cards, throwing out those in the name of persons who have ceased to borrow books, and renumbering the remaining cards.


Since this report was written the Trustees have heard with deep regret of the death of Mr. Elbridge Farmer, whose noble endowment of the Library will be long remembered by the citizens of Arlington.


At a meeting of the Trustees the following resolution was adopted :


" Resolved, That the Trustees of the Robbins Library desire to express their regret at the death of Mr. Elbridge Farmer, in whom they feel that the Library has lost a generous benefactor, and would extend to his family their heartiest sympathy."


JOS. C. HOLMES, For the Trustees.
