The following table shows the height of water in Penacook
Lake on the first day of eacli month:
January . 185.10 July . . 184.45

Tin- lowest poinl reached was October !, being 183.25; the
highest was April 25, 185.10; mean height, 184.31, which was
.98 foot higher than the mean height for the year 1897.
The water has been runiing over the overflow one hundred and
forty-one days during the year; in January, 31 ; in February, 23;
in March, li ; in April, 25; in May, 10; in June, 5; in Novem-
ber. 5; and in December, 31. At no time has the water been
lower than sixteen inches below the overflow.
The work at the overflow was completed early in the season and
the road graded.
The general work of the department has been carried on as in
past years ; the most important extensions of pipe were at St.
Paul's School and the continuation of relaying the old 14-inch
main which was extended to a little north of the terement block of
the New Hampshire State Prison.
We have had several serious breaks on Main street which indi-
cate that the cement-lined pipe in that street is nearing the end of
its usefulness ; I would therefore recommend that a new 1 0-inch
cast-iron pipe through North and South Main streets, from Cen-
tre to freight streets, be included in the plans for next season, or
that at least a portion of the work be considered.
I would also call your attention to the recommendation of the
engineer in his report which is attached hereto, and urge that the
same be carried out in order to secure the best results from the
pumping engine.
Respectfully submitted,
V. C. HASTINGS. Superintendent.

Report of Engineer of Pumping- Station.
Pumping Station, Concord Water Works.
V. C. Hastings, Superintendent:
Sir, — I would report that the pumping machinery at the pump-
ing station is m good working condition, with the exception of the
plungers. I would recommend that new plungers be put in during
the coming year, as the old ones arc badly worn and do not lift
the amount of water they should on account of so much slipping.
Following will he found n statement of the coal and supplies
ined at the pumping Station during the year, with a table showing
the work for each month :

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT.
REPORT OF COMMISSIONER OF HIGHWAYS,
To the (Hit Council: —
Gentlemen: — A.s commissioner of highways, I hereby submit
n report of the work of the highway department for the year of
L898. ,
But few uew streets were granted, and therefore there has
been but little work in that direction! The following amend-
ment to the rules in regard to laying out streets and highways
was passed this year by the hoard of aldermen, and has done
much to check the constant demand for new streets, except in
cases where they were really a public demand:
No petition for the laying out of any street or highway shall
be considered by the board of Mayor and Aldermen unless it is
accompanied by an agreement in writing, signed by responsible
parties, that said highway, if laid out by the hoard of Mayor
and Aldermen, shall be built at least fifty (50) feet wide and the
grade established by the City Engineer, without expense to the
city, or by certificate of the Commissioner of Highways that
said street or highway is of the width of at least fifty (50) feet,
and has been built and graded to his satisfaction, without ex-
pense to the city; except in eases where two-thirds of the board
of Mayor and Aldermen .shall deem the same to be of great
public necessity. Upon the presentation to the board of Mayor
and Aldermen of any such agreement or certificate the Mayor
shall, by virtue of this rule, declare forthwith that such petition
is denied, subject to a motion of any alderman that the public
WATEK DEPARTMENT. 205
necessity requires the consideration of such petition and its
adoption by a two-thirds vote as aforesaid.
Last year I suggested that the line he established on the
Hopkinton road, from Fruit street, west, which has been done
this season as far as the Glennon estate, and the highway is now
known as Pleasant street, from Railroad spuare to St. Paul's
school. I presume the city will soon take some action in regard
to macadamizing this road, as the travel demands a better high-
way.
A large amount of work has been done on bridges this year.
After several suggestions made by people who had occasion to
use the iron bridge on Main street across the Contoocook, at
Penacook, that an inspection ought to be made on account of its
being too light for the traffic, the following letter was sent to the
company who built the bridge. It was considered that they
would give a more favorable report of its condition, not wishing
to condemn their own work.
Concord, X. II., February 21, L898.
Canton Wrought Iron Bridge Co., Canton, Ohio.
Gentlemen: — We have a bridge in our city built by your
company in 1871, of which we would like a through inspection
made this spring.
Have you an Eastern agent or inspector who could do the
work ?
Kindly inform me in regard to the matter and oblige,
Yours very truly,
ALFRED CLARK.
Commissioner of Highways.
To this the following reply was received :
New York City, N. Y., Feb. 25, 1898.
Mr. Alfred Clark, Highway Commissioner, Concord, N. II.
Dear Sir : — Your esteemed favor of the 21st inst., directed to
the company at Canton, has been referred by them to this office.
206 CITY OK CONCOKD.
Iii further reply to the same we would say that we will take
pleasure in having our agent, Mr. John M. Braly, call upon you
and make this examination at any time suited to your con-
venience. If possible we should have a week's notice in ad-
vance of the time set, so that his movements can be arranged
accordingly. Anytime except the last week in March or the
first in April is open. Hoping to hear from you further in this
matter, we arc
Very truly yours,
Wrought Iron Bridge Co.,
Wynkoop and Braly,
General Eastern Agents.
Mr. Wynkoop, the Eastern agent of the company, inspected
the bridge in March, and made a verbal report immediately. He
condemned the bridge and very strongly advised that the travel
be restricted at once. This was done and Mr. Wynkoop was
requested to submit a written statement of the exact conditions
found in his examination of the bridge that it might be brought
before the City Council. The following report was submitted :
NewYork City, X. Y., March 22, 1898.
Mr. Alfred Clark, Commissioner of Highways, Concord, N. H.
Dear Sir: — In obedience to your request, I have made an ex-
amination of the iron bridge over the Contoocook river on Main
street, P.enacook, N. H., and after consultation with our chief en-
gineer and his assistant, as a result of the same J beg to submit
the following report :
The bridge is of iron, of the type known as Whipple or Double
Intersection, having cross beams of trussed outline and project-
ing brackets to carry the walks.
The roadway is 20 feet, and the two sidewalks arc 5 feet wide
each, making a total width of floor surface of 30 feet, not includ-
ing the portion under the trusses. The floor system of wood is
probably heavier than the bridge was intended to carry. The
workmanship is very good for the time when done. The material
WATER DEPARTMENT. 207
used is of the kind and quality incident to that period and an in-
quiry to the manufacturers has been made to learn if possible what
the records of test were on this particular structure. The reply
was that the recoids of that long past period had been destroyed
by fire, but that the standard quality of iron used at the time was
about as follows :
Ultimate strength. 48,000 to 50,000 pounds per square inch.
Elastic limit, 25,000 to 2(3,000 pounds per square inch.
The customary practice at that time was to use for compression
members, Gordon's formula, wifh 10,000 pounds per square inch
in the numerator and for tensile members 15,000 pounds per square
inch, was the usual working stress, thus giving, as was then be-
lieved a factor of safety of 3 1-3 as referred to the ultimate strength.
Then it was believed that any structure so designed with the above
mentioned working units and for a given safe had, would only
fail when 3 1-3 times that load had heen placed upon it.
The experience and discoveries of later years have shown that
this was not strictly true. That when any structure had been
once loaded sufficiently to strain its members beyond the elastic
limit, a permanent set or deformation occurred in the member and
if a tensile member, its area was slightly reduced. If the same
load were then applied successively, a comparatively small number
of applications of the same load would suffice to destroy the struc-
ture.
The elastic limit is, or was. tor standard iron used in bridges,
about 1-2 the ultimate strength, so that instead of having a fact-
or of safety of 3 1-."), such structures so designed actually had a
factor of safety of only 1 2-3 or. a margin of 66 2-3 per cent.
This margin was required to take care of the imperfections of shop
and field work, the effect of swiftly moving loads and the possi-
bility of overloading which too often ( ccurs with long span bridges.
The analysis of tic structure reveals the fact that the total
strength of the trusses, 70 per cent is required for supporting the
weight of the material, leaving 30 per cent available for carrying
capacity. This 3.0 per cent amounts to 500 pounds per lineal foot
of bridge or about 17 pounds per square foot of exposed floor sur-
face, this being the net total carrying capacity of the span per
208 CITY OF CONCORD.
square foot, provided such load is quietly and gently applied.
Anything more than that would be very unsafe and much less than
that might cause failure if it were applied in any other way than
described above.
It is the custom now to design bridges of this length to carry
safely at least 60 pounds per square foot, and four times the ca-
pacity of the structure under discussion.
What has been said above regarding the strength of the bridge
applies to the trusses. As to the floor system much need not be
said except that it is totally inadequate and will certainly be brok-
en through by any heavy concentrated load of more than usual size.
If the sidewalks were removed and a new floor system supplied,
the trusses might be relied upon to take care of the ordinary traf-
fic of a country bridge.
Located as it is, we deem it our duty to warn you that the bridge
is unsafe and a menace to life and property.
It should be closed at once to all heavy traffic and light vehicles
should be required to proceed slowly when crossing it.
Care should also he taken not to allow many cattle or sheep to
cross in a hunch and crowds of people should not he allowed to
gather on the bridge.
Respectfully submitted,
J as. H. Wynkoop,
Representative Wrought Iron Bridge Co., 183 Union Spuare,
New York City.
Upon this report the City Council thought it advisable to build
a new bridge across the Contoocook on Main street, and it was
found that by shortening and putting in a new floor system that
the old bridge could be used across the Contoocook in place of
the old wooden Twin bridge which had been condemned. The
contract for this work was let to the Wrought Iron Bridge Co. of
Canton, Ohio. It was necessary to build^a new abutment on the
north side of the Twin bridge and to repair and raise the one on
the south side. This department has expended $172.99 for
stone-work, etc., on the Main street bridge, and 81,594.28 on the
abutments to the Twin bridge.
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT. 209
A modern iron bridge was constructed on the Dunbarton road
at St. Paul's School this year. New stone abutments were built,
and the roadway raised about three feet. The cost of the bridge
was $1,39G.40, of which the School paid 8433.2:3 arid furnished
255 loads of gravel without charge. This makes a substantial
bridge which will last a great many years without much repairing.
About 550 feet of iron fence was built at the approaches to this
bridge at an expense of 6177.78.
The Loudon bridge across the Merrimack has been painted, this
season, at an expense of 6347.65, and the Moor concreted at an
expense of $299.88. The Federal bridge on the East Concord
road has been replanked. Expense, $283.93. For the expei se
on smaller bridges, see Financial Report.
The numerous heavy winds have called this department's atten-
tion very forcibly to the fact that our city's shade-trees are dying
quite fast. The number of requests from owners of property to
have dangerous trees and limbs removed, has been large.
In the month of August Concord was visited by ;i cyclonewhich
did considerable damage to our trees. One immense elm on South
Main street, opposite 15. A. Kimball's, was uprooted and thrown
across the street, tearing down electric and telephone wires.
Another at the corner of Green and Pleasant street was blown
down, beside several smaller ones in other parts of the city.
The bank wall on Hanover street gave way this spring, ami
had to be rebuilt. In re-building, it was found best to lengthen
it, which was done. The total cost of the work was $170.73.
For permanent work, this season, North Main street, opposite
the Eagle Hotel, has been concreted and the paving taken from
there used to pave Bridge street from Main street to the Railroad
bridge; School street, opposite the Insurance building, has been
concreted; North Main street from Franklin to Chapel on the
east side, and from Pearl to Court on the west side, has been
macadamized; new culvert on Noyes street; and a new iron
bridge- built at St. Paul's School. See table for sxpense, etc.

HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT. 211
The portable crusher was used again, this year, on High street,
and the material there has nearly all been crushed. This leaves
the street in a condition where it can now be put in shape at a
very small expense.
The work of cleaning the streets has been carried on this year
the same as usual, the garbage from the business section being-
collected at night. There is a great demand to have this terri-
tory extended, but it cannot be done with the present appropri-
ation. As the money for cleaning streets is raised by a general
tax, residents in the thickly settled part of the city consider that
their garbage should be removed weekly, the same as around the
business blocks. 1 would suggest that the city be divided into
street cleaning sections where collections could be made once a
week.
Quite a number of catch basins have been built this year on
new streets, and some rebuilt. Several have been rebuilt in Pen-
acook, mostly old ones constructed a number of years ago, wheie
the basin was found too small and allowing too much sand to
enter the sewer. One hundred and sixteen feet of 10-inch pipe
for surface water was laid on Main street, Penacook, and the
catch basins taken from the sewer and connected to this separate
pipe. Several years ago the department considered the purchase
of a steel sanitary dump-cart for cleaning catch basins, hut they
were found too expensive. There are several large catch basins
built along Main street from Centre to Freight, wnich are so eon
structed that it is impossible to run the water into the sewer, and
it must be emptied into the gutter before the basin may be
cleaned. This, though perfectly harmless, is quite unsightly,
and the steel cart would be a great improvement on the present
me1 hod.
Several new gravel walks liave been built, this year, and all
concrete walks granted by the board of aldermen have been laid.
The following table shows the length, cost, etc., of the gravel
walks granted b}r the board :

In the case before the Supreme Court regarding the removal of
snow from the sidewalks by the owners of property was found to
be unconstitutional. Therefore it is left optional with the
owners regarding the removal of snow. The majority of the
citizens clear their walks, but some are left in had shape. The
walks are plowed as usual by the department, but it would be
impossible to employ sufficient help to clean the snow from the
walks without a heavy expense. If the citizens demand that
the department remove the snow it appears to me advisable to
form a precinct in which the money could be raised, so that those
in the country portion of the city would not be taxed for this
purpose.
We have two snow plows here on trial from the Union Road
Machinery Co., which do good work and have proved very satis-
factory. 1 think it would lie advisable to purchase them.
In the spring, the Street Railway Company moved their track
on Main street, Penacook to the new location. It was then
necessary to put in bank walls at the south and north ends of
Pleasant street, and opposite the premises of John Wilde and
Harry A. Cleveland. An appropriation of $800 was made, and
after a change in the plans which extended the wall opposite the
premises of Mrs. Sarah A. Abbott, 8200 more was necessary.
The total cost of the work, including that done during the fall of
1897, has been $1,620.63.
The regular appropriations for the highway department are as
HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT.
213
follows: General maintenance, $18,000.00; cleaning streets,
$4,300.00; catch basins, $1,300.00 ; permanent work, $6,500.00;
new concrete, $2,000.00; repairing concrete, $1,500.00. The
appropriation of $18,000.00 for general maintenance may seem
large, but when we consider that from this amount must come the
winter expense, such as plowing and sanding walks in the central
portions of the city, and the snowing bridges and breaking roads
in the entire town, covering over some 300 miles, which for 1898
was $5,376.15, we see that it is reduced considerably. The bal-
ance could easily be expended by the first of duly, and then not
begin to keep up with the demands of the people. As this
appropriation is expected to last throughout the year, the depart-
ment aims to fttend to the more urgent calls and those from
which the public may derive the most benefit. Therefore, really,
the amount expended for repair of the roads alone is that of
$6,500.00 for permanent work and the balance of general main-
tenance after the winter expense is deducted. On the concrete
walks is expended the $1,500.00 for repairs and $2,000.00 for
new walks, which is governed by the petitions granted by the
board. The appropriation for catch basins of $1,300.00 can no1
be expended directly for improving the streets. Of the cleaning
streets amount, a large portion is used for the spring and fall
removal of garbage from around the business blocks.
It has been quoted by many that the highway department an-
nually expends $50,000 on the streets. It may easily be seen by
the above that the total amount appropriated in 1898 was only
$33,600.00, beside that for sprinkling, which is in a precinct, and
I hope that the taxpayers of Concord will make an effort to read
this report wherein I have endeavored to make plain the amount
expended. A record is kept in the office of all work of every
description and is open for public examination at any time.
The amount raised for sprinkling in 1898 was $3,500.00, and
with the balance of $161.4!) from 1897 gave $3,961.49. We
have nine sprinklers, all repaired and painted for the coming
season. As the season was quite favorable a balance of $841.50
is left on this appropriation.
Aside from the regular appropriation a special one of $150 was
214 . ( JTV OF < i tV<)KI>.
made for a drinking fountain at Penacook, and the sum of $1000
raised for bank walls on Main street, Penacook.
The present method of paying the laborers of this department
at the office of the City Treasurer is very inconvenient. It is
impossible for them to be located where convenient to reach the
hank during hanking hours without a considerable loss of time
from the work. Considering the number of laborers employed
during the summer months, this loss of time makes quite an item
of expense. I find by inquiry that in most cities where tl e
laborers are paid by the city treasurer, they receive their wages
on the work.
[n concluding, 1 wish to thank the various city officials for
their kind assistance in all matters in which we were mutually
concerned, and express to the members of the City Council my
appreciation of their honest consideration of highway affairs. I
am especially indebted to the City Solicitor and the committees
on roads and bridges and streets and sidewalks for their many
favors.
I have endeavored to conduct the affairs of this department for
the best interest of the city, and I hope that my efforts may not
have been wholly unsuccessful.

REPORT OF CITY ENGINEER.
To the City Council:
The report herewith submitted, shows the work doue by the en-
gineering and sewer departments for the year ending Dec. 31, 1898.
The expense attending the constiuction of sewers built during
the year will be found upon the following pages.
There are some districts in the city, that have been somewhat
inconvenienced by the lack of sufficient capacity in the mains in
those districts, and some attention should be "given them as their
troubles increase from year to year as the districts are enlarged.
The contract for the sewer in Warren and Pleasant streets was
completed early in the season, and the balance due the contractors
paid over to them. This was the only piece of contract work done
by the sewer department this year
No serious breaks have occurred in the sewer system during the
season of 1898 (as in 1897) and only ordinary repairs have been
made, together with the regular spring and fall flushing of the en-
tire systt m.
The general survey of the city was extended so far as we were
able to devote time to it. and generally on the westerly side of the
city proper.
The contract for the removal of the ".Main Street" bridge, a,*
Penacook, changing its length and width and re-erecting it on the
site of the *'Twiu" bridge, together with the erection of a new
bridge on the Main street site, was let to the Wrought Iron Bridge
Co., of Canton. Ohio, for the sum of 8s. 1 (JO. 00. Only one other
bridge company submitting proposals for the work, viz : the 1] >>-
ton Bridge Works, for the sum of 89,400.00.. The Main street
bridge was practically completed on Nov. 22 but no money has
been paid the bridge company, as their contract calls for payment,
only, upon the completion of the entire contract.
The amount spent from the appropriation for this work will appear
iu the report of the commissioner of highways.
The "Twin" bridge is not yet completed but probably will be in
the mouth of January 1899. The inspection of the held work on
222 CITY OF CONCORD.
these bridges has been done by this department, thus saving the
additional expense for an inspector. The completion of these
structures will leave the city without a wooden bridge upon the
Contoocook river, so far as highway bridges are concerned.
The usual measurements of concrete sidewalks laid, setting grade
stakes and similar work for the highway department, together with
the demands of other departments, have been attended to as
promptly as possible.
The employes of this department for the past season have been:
Frank W. Brown, Russel Burroughs, principal assistants ; Fred W.
Lang, transitman ; Harry C. Hill, Charles H. Chandler, William
A. Ellis, rodmen, who have all attended cheerfully to the duties
assigned them
Whatever success may have attended the efforts of this depart-
ment were largely due to the support of the mayor and cit}T council,
and I wish to express to you my appreciation of it.
The expenses of the department for the year 1898 are as follows-

At present we have not in our possession the grades of all old
sewers and at times we are confronted with questions of grades
and elevations that are not easily answered.
There should be, in the near future, sufficient data secured to
plot profiles of the entire sewer system, thus removing some of
the doubtful elements now met with.

PUBLIC LIBRARY.
REPORT OK THE TRUSTEES.
To the City Council:
The Trustees of the Public Library present herewith the report
of the Librarian for the year L89-S.
This institution, while politically and industrially of less impor-
tance than many of the departments of the city government, comes
very close to the daily lives of most of our people, and for this
reason it is interesting to observe how its privileges are used and
extended.
The large number of books of fiction taken from libraries, as
compared with those of serious character, is a subject of frequent
comment, ami is regretted by many who believe that novel reading
is a waste of time, and that it tends to weaken character and create
false ideas in life. But if it were possible, as it is not, to prohibit
or nearly suppress the reading of fiction, the loss in pleasure would
far exceed the gain in profit. As .Judge Poster wrote in the report
of 1892, • -imagination has not perished from the earth, and dull
and heavy would society become if it ever should or could."
Nevertheless, while we believe that the reading of good fiction
in moderation is healthful, it is the policy of the library manage-
ment to give special encouragemeut to the reading of other liter-
ature. l>y far the larger portion of the book money is spent upon
works of more weighty character; 'people are allowed to take from
the library several non-fiction volumes at one time ; the young are
encouraged to read books of travel, biography, history ami science:
the fieshest and most attractive volumes of this character are placed
upon the delivery desk where they solicit attention ; patrons are
welcome to the reference room ; adults are permitted to take books
from the shelves and read them in the alcoves; aud the best peri-
odicals are placed upon the tables of the reading room.
The results of this liberal policy are marked. The reference room
is well patronized : an increasing number of people are pursuing
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 233
courses of serious study either privately or iu clubs and classes ;
and the number of visitoi'S in the reading room for purposes other
than merely the reading of stories is large and constant.
The Trustees, actuated solely by a due regard for the public
good, urge that city council make ample appropriation for the sup-
port of the library. Last year, by reason of necessary repairs, the
expense of publishing a much needed non-fiction catalogue, and
the reduced amount of the appropriation, but few new books were
purchased. Every book published during (he year, of general in-
terest and permanent value, as well as the books of the day most
talked about, we should like to place upon the shelves ; but we
have come, and necessarily will come, far short of this ideal limit.
Respectfully submitted.

Concord, February 9, 1899.
Report of the City Librarian.
To the Board of Trustees of the Concord Public Library:
Gentlemen : —
The report for 1898 can be given in a few gratifying statistics : —
the circulation has increased 1000 orer last year, bringing it up to
almost 89,000, out of wliieh only two books have been lost; 716
new borrowers have been registered, over 100 more than in 1897;
and the reading of tictiou has decreased 5 per cent.
The gain in circulation is especially gratifying because many li-
braries complain of a loss owing to the assiduous reading of news-
papers during the war.
The increased reading of the more solid works may be ascribed
largely to four causes, 1st, the lists for collateral reading given
teachers and pupils by our school superintendent; 2nd, the refer-
ence work cloue by the yearly increasing scientific, literary or cur-
rent events clubs ; 3rd, the interest aioused in travel and history by
the Walker Lectures; 4th, the rapidly growing use of the no>n>
fiction card.
It is interesting to note that a new book set forth in the boy's
corner is snapped up in five minutes, while a book in the girl's
corner may remain unnoticed for days ; yet when they are grown
up, the girls become better users of the Library than the boys and
seem to believe it has books which can help them ; while it is to be
wished that men realized we try to keep a supply of books useful
iu their vocations, from those on municipal g'overment to those on
sanitary plumbing or poultry-raising. Again I will say that we
want recommendations from experts as to the best books in their
specialties, particularlyiu science and the useful arts, in which de-
pal tments books get so quickly superannuated.
Resides the Library's prosperity along its regular lines, it has
gained during 1898 in two unusual matters of great importance;
it has a n.-w roof, and a new, complete, printed non-fiction cata-
logue. Upon the latter the ''Library Journal," the national organ
of the profession, has set the seal of its approval, and in conse-
PUBLIC LIBRARY. 235
quence we are getting bequests from as remote states as New York,
Illinois and Louisiana for samples of what the '•Journal" was
pleased to call ua good working model for other libraries."
The expense attendant upon the roof aud the catalogue has
cramped our action in other respects, but this year the appropri-
ation can be divided so as to allow the purchase of more books and
the making of improvements in incidental ways.
It has taken four years hard work to modernize the Library. It
may be more puzzling to keep it from standing still. But there are
always the library periodicals to ponder, library conventions to at-
tend, the inspection of other libraries and best of all, the study of
local needs, to give one fresh ideas as to policy and management.
The writer has^made it a point to visit libraries in twenty-two dif-
ferent towns and cities since she came into office. The recent an-
nual meeting of the State Library Association held this year in
Portsmouth, was most helpful and interesting.
If, as George Elliot says, "the way to get much out of an indi-
vidual is to expect much of him," may it not be so with institutions ?
Let the public try [it on the Library,
Respectfully submitted,
GRACE BLANCHARD, Librarian.
SANITARY DEPARTMENT.
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH.
To His 1 1 on ok The Mayor and the City Council :
Gentlemen : — In submitting our annua] report we desire to con-
gratulate our fellow citizens upon the excellent sanitary condi-
tion of Concord during the year, and to express our appreciation
of the hearty co-operation which we have received in our efforts
to secure a thorough and impartial enforcement of the regulations
under which the business of this department is conducted. Our
sanitary officer, Mr. Charles K. Palmer, has fully maintained his
reputation as a model official, and his report to this hoard which
is herewith submitted gives ample proof of his zeal and industry.
We think the city is exceedingly fortunate in possessing an official
who tills a position of so great importance to the welfare of the
community in a manner which, meets with the unqualified ap-
proval of all with whom his duties bring him in contact. His
report indicates that the work of the year has been carried on
along the same general lines as formerly, and if a greater amount
has been accomplished it has been because the co-operation of
your honorable body, the medical profession, and the community
generally has made the prescribed tasks easier of accomplish-
ment.
Our Schools.
.VII must admit the great need of providing the best arrange-
ments for lighting, heating, ventilating and plumbing in buildings
occupied for so many hours every year by those of tender age,
and must recognize the menace to health occasioned by serious
defects in any of these essentials. Our school buildings may be
in as o-ood sanitary condition as the average in the state, and yet
SANITARY DEPARTMENT. 237
be. far from the standard of today; many of them were con-
structed years ago and have not been improved as the progress of
the times demand. It' the conditon is such as to warrant changes
in order that the best interests of the scholars and teachers may
be subserved, then these changes should lie made without delay.
In many cases the basements are poorly lighted, and particularly
in those parts wherein are placed the water closets and urinals;
the ail' here is had, unpleasant odors are prominent, and yet much
of this finds its way to the floors above by the natural outlets, and
even through the loosely jointed wooden boxes supplying what is
supposed to be pure air to the furnaces, in some instances the
main sewer pipe of the sewer is ventilated a few feel from the win-
dow occupied by the cold air duct for the furnace. It is not difficult
to believe that those rooms receive impurities in the air furnished
them for heating. The drinking water is supplied in the basement,
and, in some, from wooden pails, with tin dippers, not always bright
and clean. There is a reasonable doubt about the ventilation of
the latrine-' : the cover of the vault is open a good part of the time,
and the seats of the closet are more often open than closed.
Some of these, when examined, showed xwy Utile suction power
to the ventilating pipe. It would seem wise to have this system
replaced by the more modern sanitary arrangement in use in the
schools recently built. Three of our schools in the compact part
of the city still maintain outhouses not connected with the sewer:
the Tahanto school has had new heating and ventilating intro-
duced during the past year, and sanitary water closets: the Wesl
End school will remove the objections to the Bow Brook school.
leaving the Manual Training and Sewing schools to be provided
for this season. Everything considered, the West Concord
school is probably in the poorest condition of the schools in the
city, and radical changes will lie necessary to put it in a sanitary
state.
To attain the best results, more thought and work must be de-
voted to the physical side of school life ; a sound body is as necs-
sary today as ever to maintain a sound mind, and all the environ-
ments of school children must be jealously guarded to realize the
full blessino-s of education.
238 CITY OF CONCOKD.
City Ambulance.
Some years ago the city purchased an ambulance, but so far as
we can learn from a careful perusal of the city records, did not
place it under any specific regulations. It was put in charge of
the police department without any definite instructions. In a
matter of so much importance, there should be no doubt on any
point — the police should he given such rules for their guidance
that there could not he at any time any question as to their duty
in the premises. There are cases such as small-pox, diphtheria,
scarlet fever, and measles, which would properly be placed in our
charge with full power. All others, as emergencies, accidents,
and ordinary cases of illness not specified as being under our
board, could with safety and propriety be delegated to the police
department.
We would respectfully recommend that you draft rules and
regulations for its equipment and management that will remedy
the existing condition.
PLUMBING LAWS.
We have at different times in our reports referred to the great
necessity of having some wholesome supervision of plumbing in
our city, and have been instrumental in giving opportunities to
physician-, plumbers and others to consider the question. We
have not found any opposition to such a measure; all are agreed
that it is urgently needed and that its results from every stand-
point will he beneficial. There is every reason of assurance that
the present legislature will enact a law compelling cities to regu-
late and supervise all plumbing done in its precincts. As it is to-
day, every one having any alterations in his plumbing or any new
work done is entirely dependent on his confidence in the ability
and integrity of the man doing the work: there is no authority to
say what shall he done. Hence so many unscientific specimens of
so-called sanitary plumbing. A- much of the work is buried
under ground or placed between floors, its worst features are often-
times not recognized until some obscure illness developes and the
SANITARY DEPARTMENT. 239
attending physician calls in our Health Officer to examine the
plumping. Then the cause of the trouble is found — a loose joint
or broken pipe with sewer gas freely pouring out. The effects of
this poison are so gradual, yet at the same time so ruinous, that it
usually happens the system is severely damaged before the origin
of the trouble is discovered. We have known in this city of many
instances of flagrant violations of even ordinary workmanship
where sickness was directly traceable to it : fixtures improperly
trapped are not vented, joints not closely made, pipes imperfect.
all turned over to the property-owner without any test having been
made. This very serious menace to health 1ms been too long tol-
erated in our community; our common interest demands its imme-
diate remedy. If these conditions were not so. we would not hear
so much talk of the greater safety in the old-fashioned earth-closet
nor meet with the opposition, as at present, to make connections
with the public sewer. Our hope is that every party advertising
to do plumbing must satisfy competent examiners of his efficiency
before he can engage in business, that all his work shall be done
according to specifications furnished him by :i legally authorized
commission, and finally have the results of his labor examined
and approved by an inspector before it is accepted.
Contagious Diseases.
The hoard have been highly gratified at the uniform success at-
tained in preventing the spread of such contagious diseases as have
appeared in our community.
While in placing credit tor this happy outcome, the medical fra-
ternity should not be ignored, the afflicted families are also deser-
ving of much praise for the faithful manner in which they have
seconded our efforts ; they have seemingly appreciated that it is
our wish and as we believe our duty to render every assistance in
our power to the sick, as well as to protect the public health. It
is certainly never our purposs to impose any unnecessary hard-

ter which if approved will materially aid boards of health in the

REPORT OF SANITARY OFFICER.
To the Board of Health :
Gentlemen : I have the honor to present herewith the report of
my labors as Sanitary Officer for the year ending December 31,
1898, in which report will be found a brief account of the sani-
tary conditions ol i y during this period, and the results
which have been attained by the department in its various lines
oJ sanitary work.
GENERAL HEALTH OF THE CITY.
As our reporl for the year 1897 stated, so we can say in our
report for the past year, there has been no epidemic of a serious
character. This is undoubtedly due in part to the existence and
maintenance of proper sanitary conditions throughout the city.
Urgenl efforts have been continually made to cause the abatement
of any nuisance which has come to our knowledge, as speedily anil
completely as possible, and as a result the c been kept al-
most free during the past year.
The number of deaths L*egi luring the year was 303, 46
than the previous year. This includes all that died at the
hospitals and other institutions, a large number of whom came
here for treatment from other localities, and are eliminated from
the death rate.

DIPHTHERIA.
While diphtheria has prevailed in many cities and towns around
us to an a) arming extent, it is a pleasure to record the fact that
we have had but very little trouble from this dreaded disease.
There have been but four cases reported during the year.
The culture method of assisting in making the diagnosis of cases
of diphtheria is very generally employed by the physicians in the
city. Tubes for the purpose are furnished by the health depart-
ment,.and can always be procured at this office.
SCARLET FEVER.
There were but eight eases reported at this office during the
.year. All proved to be very mild, and no deaths resulted from

This disease has declined in the past year, but eight cases being
reported, with a fatality of three, not including those brought to
the hospital for treatment from other places. While many physi-
cians think this disease is not contagious, it is essential that it
should be reported to this department, that the proper care and
investigation of the cause of the disease may be attained. Proper
measures relative to the disinfection of the discharges of such
patients, and their disposal should be invariably and thoroughly
carried out, and in no way can this be accomplished without the
board having knowledge and authority in these cases.
MEASLES.
< )ur records show one hundred and twenty-six cases of measles
reported with no deaths. Of this number of cases sixty-five de-
veloped at St. Paul's school and nineteen cases were at the Or-
phan's Home adjoining the school.

SAN ITAR Y INSPECTIONS
The ordinance requiring house to house inspection has been com-
plied with, as time would allow. And the results obtained by
these inspections show the same interesting features of improve-
ment that have been developed in the past. These inspections in-
clude the business blocks, school houses, all the buildings located

factories, stores, markets, alleyways, tenement and private houses.
In making this inspection I have tried to impress upon our citizens
the necessity of good sanitation, and have endeavored to he con-
siderate in my demands for cleanliness, exacting that which I
thought best for the interest of the public health.

SEWER INSPECTION.
As in other years, I have endeavored to perform my duty in re-
gard to the enforcement of the rules and regulations relative to
sewers and drains. During the past year there have been one
hundred and six (106) connections made with the public sewer,
and a complete record made and kept on file in this office, and copies
sent monthly to the city council. The following table shows the
various sizes and kinds of pipe used :
1.5*7 feet of 6 inch Akron pipe. ■

1 N S PECT I ( ) X OF PLU M B ING .
From personal observation 1 am, and long have been, thorough-
ly convinced that one of the urgent and indispensable needs for a
proper sanitary administration in Concord, is an inspector of
plumbing.
While defective plumbing is not universal in our city, I believe
there is much bad workmanship in existence, in both old and new
work. In many instances I have been requested to examine the
source of bad odors in dwelling houses and business blocks, and
almost invariably these complaints were in direct traceable connec-
tion with faulty plumbing of water closets, bath tub, or wash basin.
There is no ordinance on the subject of plumbing, and I earnestly
renew at tins time my suggestion of other 3'ears, that an in-
spector of plumbing be appointed, and the enactment of ordi-
nances, similar to those in force in other cities. Honest, skillful
plumbing alone can secure the inhabitants of dwellings having
modern conveniences in them against the poisonous sewer gas.
Careless and dishonest plumbing is always and under all circum-
stances, full of danger to the inhabitants. There is but one way
possible out of this difficulty, and that is to have a sanitary plumb-

SANITARY DEPARTMENT. 259
Report of City Physician.
To His Honor the Mayor and City Council:
Gentlemen : I take pleasure in submitting, herewith, my report
for the year ending Dec. 31, 1898.
Number of visits . . . 36
Vaccinations of schoolchildren . . 55
Office consultations . . . 12
There has occurred very little of interest or importance in my
department during the past year.
The prevailing status of good health throughout the city, espec-
ially as to contagious diseases, lessened, materially, the demands
made upon the city physician.
To the credit of our efficient Board of Health, may it be said,
that this condition of things is largely due to its watchfulness and
painstaking interest, whereby unsanitary conditions have been
removed and the spread of contagion limited.
The custom of sanitary inspection, now in vogue, and the
establishment of the office of inspector of plumbing, a movement
toward which, is already oa foot, will add very much toward
establishing a greater sense of security in our midst. The public
mind is fasl becoming accustomed to hygienic improvements and
less resentful toward the modern and scientitie methods of pre-
venting and handling disease.
Instead of the old feeling, born of ignorance, that their liber-
ties are being curtailed and rights ignored, people are now looking
to it themselves, that no unsanitary conditions be allowed to exist
in their midst.
The world-wide reputation of the successful employment of
Anti-toxin in the treatment of Diphtheria, has lost nothing, what-
ever, by its use in Concord, where many cases, treated promptly,
are now living examples of its great efficienc}*. Liberal appro-
260 CITY OF CONCORD.
priations should be made, that the Board of Health and City Phy-
sician may not be handicapped, but able to act promptly when
this dreadful disease appears in our city.
- In many cities, the City Physician occupies a position on the
Board of Health, either cx-ojficio or by regular appointment. I
think this custom a good one, inasmuch as it -would bring him into
closer touch with the board and increase the etliciency of both
departments. This would prove especially important during a
prevailing epidemic when the two departments are necessarily
brought more c^sely together.
On July 17th I was called, by the City Marshal, to the morgue
of Louis A. Lane, to view the remains of an unknown man,
found floating in Soucook River. I found the body in an excel-
lent state of preservation, but as no signs of violence could be
discovered pointing to foul play, it was not deemed best by the
coroner to act further in the matter.
In my work at the Police Station, I have nothing but praise to
offer for the courteous treatment shown me by the City Marshal
and all of his officers, and am pleased to commend the prompt
action on the part of the department in attending to the inmates,
when medical or surgical aid was needed.
That better service may be rendered to the sick and injured
whose condition is not serious euough to require removal to the
hospital or their homes, but whose temporary retention the law
requires, I would suggest that the best adapted cell for the pur-
pose be supplied with proper furnishings to make such persons
comfortable. Also, that a stock of medical and surgical supplies
necessary for emergency cases be constantly provided. Both of
these suggestions can be carried out with but little expense and
better service can thereby be rendered.
The question of a contagious hospital, which was considered
several years ago but dropped on account of serious objections
made by property owners, is still just as important as at any
other time. The main objection then raised by owners of adja-
cent property that the presence of such a hospital would injure
the value and rental of property on account of the supposed dan-
ger of the diseases spreading to houses in the vicinity, are falla-
cious ones in the light of modern knowledge, inasmuch as the his-

tory of such diseases from year to year shows no such baneful
results attending their treatment in private houses in all sections,
high and low, of the city. How much less, then, would be the dan-
ger from a hospital, set a little apart from private dwellings, well-
appointed and scientifically managed. In much larger cities than
Concord, where land is higher and buildings mere crowded, these
valuable institutions are found located, either as distinct hospitals
or pavilions connected with some general hospital. Such a build-
ing, modern in all of its appointments, located in connection with
the Margaret Pillsbury General Hospital, heated by the same sys-
tem and conducted under the same management, could be most
economically run and at all times prepared to receive patients.
Such an institution would not be a menace to this section of the
city, but would save the spreading of disease and the depopu-
lation of whole families, should a severe epidemic occur in crowded
tenements or blocks, or under other conditions unfavorable to its
proper management and control. The conception of a contagious
hospital should not embody the idea of a "pest house," as it
would still be necessary to care for Small Pox in the building on
the plains, but the more common diseases of Diphtheria, Scarlet
Fever and Measles that at times appear in severe epidemic and
malignant form.
Experiences during the last war have illustrated well, both in
successes and failures, the wisdom of the old adage, "in time of
peace prepare for war." So may this city not be flattered by the
peaceful serenity of good health that has prevailed for several
years, but prepare in season for the successful handling of con-
tagion whenever it may come.
CHANCE Y ADAMS,
City Physician.

Albert W. Braley,
I will renew my recommendation for a stable suitable for a horse,
wagon and ambulance.
It can be built after the same architectural design as the police
station for 61,000.
A police telphone line from the South end to Penacook with
twelve boxes at convenient points has been constructed by the N .
E. Telephone Co. and has proved to be a very effecient aid to this
Department.
The number of duty calls that have been rung in by police offi-
cers-from May 8 December 31 is 19,438 besides a large number of
emergency calls the cost being only about S1G0.00 per year for use
and repairs.
The total cost of the police department for the year 1898 was
274 CITY OF CONCORD.
$11,203.26 the receipts from fines and costs Lave been $1,174.82.
The total cost to tbe tax payers for the police department dur-
ing the year Inks was $4,028.44.
On account of the increased business at the South end there is a
demand for an additional night officer, only one night officer being
on duty south of Pleasant street at the present time.
There is also a demand for an officer at the West End for night
duty and I would most respectfully recommend that provision be
made for the appointment of two additional officers.
It is customary in man}' cities to have one police officer for every
thousand inhabitants, so it can be readily seen that we have a very
small force for a city of this size.
In submitting my report I desire to express my gratitude to the
board of police commissioners. His Honor Mayor A. B. Wood worth,
and the city council for their considerate treatment of this depart-
ment. Thanks are due to Harry G. Sargent, city solicitor, for val-
uable assistance rendered.
To all who have contributed to our success we extend our thanks.
To the members of the force my grateful acknowledgement and
thanks are tendered, for their efficiency and' promptness in the dis-
charge of their duties.
Eespectfully submitted,
G. SCOTT LOCKE,
City Marshal.

276 CITY OF CONCORD.
Report of City Solicitor.
To the City Councils: I respectfully submit my annual report
as solicitor :
The suit of Trueworthy L. Fowler against the city of Concoid,
referred to in my last annual report, was terminated at the Oc-
tober term, 1898, of the Supreme Court for Merrimack county by
a verdict against the city for the amount of damages claimed
which was less than fifty dollars. Up to the time of the trial, it
appeared that the city had some defense to the action, but at that
time the solicitor became satisfied from the statements of credita-
ble witnesses who were present for the plaintiff, that the city ^as
liable and a verdict was entered by agreement against the city fur
the aforesaid damages.
In 1897. Lyman Jackman instituted a proceeding to test the
constitutionality of the city ordinance requiring abutting land
owners to shovel the snow from the side-walks in front of their
premises. This question was transferred to the law term and
was twice argued orally by the solicitor and two briefs were also
hied in behalf of the constitutionality of the ordinance. At the
July law term, 1898, the court in an elaborate opinion, rendered
by the chief justice, decided that the ordinance was unconstitu-
tional.
At the September term, 1898, of the Supreme court for Belknap
county, an action was brought in that county against the city by
Edward Rhobidas in which damages wrere claimed against the city
to the amount of ten thousand dollars. The plaintiff claimed
that he had received injuries while employed m the water depart-
ment of the city of Concord during the previous year for which
the city was liable to the above amount. The suit was brought a
very short time before the commencement of the September term
and notice was served upon the city to be ready for trial at that
REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR. 277
term. The city was greatly embarrassed by the fact that at the
time of the alleged injury Rhobidas had made no claim against the
ciry. Many of the workmen employed who knew about the cir-
cumstances attending the injury had left the employment of the
city, the whole matter had been forgotten, and if the city went to
a trial at the September term, it was almost certain to be crippled
and hampered in its defense by reason of its inability to make ad-
equate preparation for the defense of so important litigation. It
coming to the attention of the solicitor that the plaintiff was not
an inhabitant of Laconia, as alleged in his writ, but on the con-
trary was a resident of Canada, a plea to the jurisdiction was
filed based upon the proposition that the plaintiff could not main-
tain any action in Belknap county, he being a non-resident.
The questions of fact and of law arising upon this plea were
referred by the court to Judge W. B. Fellows of Tiltou, who after
a lengthy hearing decided in favor of the city and dismissed the
suit.
Since the suit was dismissed the plaintiff, Rhobidas, has moved
with his family to Laconia and has now brought another suit
against the city claiming to recover damages to the amount of ten
thousand dollars. The city has now been enabled to look up the
facts in the case and are prepared to defend the case upon the
merits should occasion arise. Since the last suit was brought the
city solicitor has caused to be filed a special plea setting up the
defense that, as the immediate management and control of the
water department is vested in a board of water commissioners
who have the entire charge of the management and details of oper-
ating said department, the city is not liable for the negligence of
any workmen employed by such board of water commissioners
who are public officials and not servants and agents of the city.
Another defense set up by said special plea is that the water
precinct established by authority of the legislature does uot in-
clude the whole city but only a portion thereof, and that it was
provided in the act of the legislature authorizing the establish-
ment of said precinct, that all taxes levied are to be levied and
assessed upon the taxable inhabitants and property of the pro-
duct and not upon any other part of the city, and the city as
such has no beneficial ownership iu said precinct except in a gov-
278 CITY OF CONCORD.
ernmental and legislative capacity and the city is therefore not
legally responsible for injuries occasioned by any alleged negli-
gence to the employees of the water department.
The questions of law arising i pou this plea filed by the city
have been transferred to the law term and will probably be
argued at the June law term, 1899. If the decision is in favor of
the city upon these legal points, judgment will be rendered for
the city without any further trial. If the decision is in favor of
the plaintiff upon these legal points, then the case will have to be
tried by the jury upon the merits.
The suits against the city, referred to in my last annual report,
in favor of Arthur Henry, Edmund M. Proctor, Laura P. Clough,
Honor M. Clough and John Callahan for damages to the amount
of two thousand dollars caused by surface water as alleged on
account of the raising of Pine street have been referred to Hon.
James W. Remiek for decision. A hearing in said suits was com-
menced on the 27th day of December, 1898, and was adjourned
from that time until the tenth day of January. 1899, at which
time the testimony of the witnesses will probably be completed.
It is necessary, however, in order to properly protect the interests
of the city that a «view of the street in question be taken after the
snow is goue and while the ground is bare. The case will prob-
ably not be argued until some time in March or April after the
view is taken.
There are at present pending against the city claims for dam-
ages in favor of Henry A. Clsveland, John G. Hook and Nellie
Merrill, guardian of Joshua B. Merrill. The first two cases arise
out of the change of the location of the track of the Concord
street Railway at Penacook. N. H. The amount claimed by
Cleveland is live hundred dollars and the amount claimed by Hook
is four hundred fifty dollars.
In the Merrill case, the city government awarded three hun-
dred dollars in full payment of the damages but the amount
claimed is one thousand dollars.
There is also pending against the city at this time a suit
brought by Bertha E. Braley through her attorneys Leach &
Stevens to recover for alleged damages claimed to have been suf-
fered in 1892, on account of the laying out of a highway known
REPORT OF CITY SOLICITOR. 27(J
as "Jackson Street Extension." This claim had been presented
to the city government some years ago and was disallowed and it
was supposed that the matter was ended before a new suit has
now been brought as above stated. There is also pending against
the city a suit in favor of Edward E. Hodgmau and a suit in favor
of Mary J. Gay, William H. Gay, and Walter C. Gay to recover
for damages claimed to have been suffered in changing the grade
of a highway and laying out a highway. Ii is hoped that these
cases may be disposed of by au amicable settlement.
There is also pending against the city a suit in favor of Daniel
Higgins. This action was entered at the October term, 1897, and
should have been referred to in my last annual report. It was
brought to recover for damages occasioned for the alleged negli-
gent construction of a sewer at the north end. The suit was
brought by the late Daniel I>. Donovan and since his decease no
counsel have been employed to cany it on. As it is claimed that
the trouble with the sewer resulted from the construction of the
tracks of the Beston i!C Maine Railroad across the line of sewer,
the city solicitor has caused the Boston & Maine Railroad to be
vouched in a-, a defendant. If new counsel appear to represent
the plaintiff, the action will probably be tried at the April term,
1899 of the Supreme Court for Merrimack county.
During the year advice and assistance have been furnished by
me to the officers of the different departments of the city govern-
ment as requested.

PUBLIC PARKS.
REPORT OF PARK COMMISSIONERS.
The Park Commissioners submit herewith their annual report :
The appropriation foi ystem of parks for the past year has
been :
White Park, .... $2,850.
Rollins Park. . . . 650.
Bradley Park. . . . 75.
Penacook Pai k, . . . 75.
WHITE PARK.
The appropriation has been expended during the past year, and
while it has been not much more than sufficient to keep the park in
good order, some new work has been accomplished.
The commissioners had hoped to construct a tool-house, also to
complete the play-ground, but the funds did not admit of this.
The force at work consisted of four men besides the superintendent,
together with a horse an 1 cart. The work was necessarily slow as
so much grade has had to be moved in order to fill up the low and
wet parts of the play-ground. If this could be completed at an
early date, various questions might be settled in regard to this feat-
ure of the park, but with the scheme which is being developed in
White Park, making it of use to all classes, it cannot be judged
by its iucompleteness. but as a whole.
"A park, being a living, growing thing, designed with au object
in view that can only be realized in years, should be continuously
under one management ; hence the positions of park commissioners,
and especially the positions of park employes, should be of lon^
terms and free from all political interference."
'•A park is to remain a possession of die people for all time and
the measure of its perfection is *o be determined by the thorough-
ness of its preparation.
The lot on the corner of White and Beacon streets was formally
PUBLIC PARKS. 283
accepted and paid for at a cost of $1-400. during the past year.
The possession of this lot will not only complete the territory which
is now bounded ou every side by streets, but will yeild an income
from the large amount of grade thereon.
It is also planned to iu some way extend Beacon stmt to High
street, thus giving a complete drive about the park.
ROLLINS PARK.
The work at Rollins Park has been of the usual character, but
very little new work has been attempted. Plans have been made
to develop the opening space bordering on Broadway, and from
year to year the work can lie carried out as the funds admit.
The street, so generously given by Mr. John II. Lamprey, border-
ing the southern line of this park, should be laid out and graded
by the City. The use of the park for picnic parties has been large
and some of the open air conc< rts have been held here. The use
of the park is freely offered to all. but a few try to see how much
they can abuse it, and. when reprimanded, are insolent.
"Visitors should have a sense of absolute security while in a
park. They should be encouraged to have a seuse of ownership in
the park, and to quickly resent any acts on the part of those who
interfere with the pleasure and comforts of others."
The shelter, which was built late in the fall of 1897, lias proven
a good feature in the park.
The lower pond has been deepened and will be crossed by a
bridge, from which paths will extend following the line of the pond.
BRADLEY PARK.
The care of Bradley Park has cost the city about eighty dollars,
and the beauty of this little bit of landscape work has been a de
light to the many who pass it daily.
The coming year seats should be placed in the positions reserved
for them.
Some change in the arrangement of the shrubbery maybe neces-
sary, but with an annual expenditure of $75 or 880 tin's s pot can
be well cared for and be a continual source of pleasure.
L;Sl CITV OF CONCORD.
PENACOOK PARK.
The sum of $80.81 has been expended on the grounds, together
with some needed repairs on the building. This park has been
used but very little as compared with former years, there being no
attraction todraw the crowd, yet here the lovers of nature can revel
iu the beautiful scenery and the magnificent sunsets, making the
hours of closing day long to be remembered.
PARKS AND COMMONS.
The triangle at the West End, according to the terms of the
gifts, is to be improved this year.
The commissioners ask that an appropriation be made to enable
them to put this into proper condition.
There are other pieces of ground about the city which can be
beautified and made an ornament in our now increasing park sys-
tem.
It would seem wise that the powers of the park commissioners
be enlarged so that the planting of trees upon the new streets, also
the replacing of dead aud unsightly trees, may be given into their
charge.

CEMETERY DEPARTMENT.
To the City Cotoicil of the City of Concord.
Inasmuch as the office of Treasurer of the Commissioners of
Cemeteries Las been abolished, we have no such report of course
to call your attention to.
The appropriation of the year past has been expended in grading
and preparing the grounds for lots. The unsightly gravel banks
have been entirely removed.
This work has been attended with a considerable amount of labor
and expense, but we feel that the result amply justifies the expendi-
tures. Your honorable body will not be called upon again for some
years for any large appropriations for grading.
Your Commissioners feel that you should for a few years make
liberal appropriations for beautifying the grounds in other re-
spects, viz., the planting of trees and shrubs.
We should not feel that we had performed our duty, if we did
not again call your attention to the matter of a Chapel. We have
served under several administrations without receiving an appro-
priation for this much desired object. May we not expect such an
appropriation at your hands?

PINE GROVE AND OLD FORT CEMETERIES.
To Hi's Honor the Mayor and City Council.
At the beginning of the year 1898 we asked for an appropriation
of two hundred dollars for improvements we considered necessary
for the year in Pine Grove Cemetery : yet nothing was appropriated
at this time for its maintenance: >et a special appropriation of
twenty- five dollars was made later in the season for mowing the
same, which was nearly all expended for the purpose named. The
balance was expended iu removing an old tree, which was liable to
do damage by falling limbs.
There is now a demand for the grading of seven avenues, as
practically nothing has been done to them since they were laid out,
and the lots facing these avenues cannot be properly graded until
this has been done.
The iron rail placed above the stone wall on the westerly side of
the Cemetery should be painted or removed as it is damaging the
stone by rust.
While much more is needed, we would recommend an appropri-
ation of two hundred dollars for the present year, which will make
a fair beginning.
The foregoing is for Pine Grove Cemetery. It may not be
understood by your Honorable Body that another cemetery known
as The Old Fort Cemeteiy, in which a number of ^Revolutionary
Soldiers are buried, is but a short distance from ,Pine Grove, for
the care of which we would recommend an appropriation of at least
Fifty Dollars.
Most respectfully submitted.

While the number of alarm boxes responded to during the year
was thirty-three less than number for the preceding year, a glance
at the summary will show the net loss to be larger. The apparatus
is in good condition. The Chemical Engine has been retouched and
varnished.
No extensive repairing of apparatus has been necessary.
No hose has been purchased during the year, 1650 feet having
been lelined. As it is fair to peisumethatsome of the old hose will
be condemned during the coming year. I respectfully recommend
the purchase of 500 feet. The fire alarm telegraph system is in
good condition.
One private box and two tappers have been removed and one
mil-am-meter and four public boxeshave been added to the system.
The main lines have been extended two and one half miles.
The policy pursued by recent administrations has resulted in
marked improvement in the service.
The same policy pursued for a short time longer, and but a short

time will be necessary, will result iu placing' the department on the
basis upon which it should rest.
While it is not to be expected that all of the improvements desired
can be attained immediately, it will perhaps, not be amiss to enum-
erate the most important of those desirable. The Central Fire Sta-
tion should be remodeled and the horses placed behind the appara-
tus, thus saving valuable time in responding to alarms, and elim i-
nating the danger at present incurred of injuring horses.
This wo Id involve the expenditures oi -dxteen hundred dollars.
Two of the four fire alarm circuits at present cover such an area that
they should he divided, thus reducing the area left without protec-
tion by an open circuit fifty per cent.
This would necessitate the purchase of a new repeater which would
cost thirteen hundred dollars.
The addition of two more tire alarm boxes would give the city
ample protection in thai line for some time to come.
A modern ladder truck should lie purchased iu the near future.
A first class truck could be purchased for one thousand dollars.
>,'ew heating apparatus should be placed in the Old Fort Engine
house. •
It will readily be seen that to obtain these improvements the ex-
penditure of between four and live thousand dollars would be neces-
sary, bin as it would result iu increased efficiency of the depart-
ment it could lie regarded a- well expended.
