INTEODUCTION.

The City has annually since 1821 issued a volume
containing, until 1829, a register of the City Council
and a list of the officers. In 1829 the City Charter, in
1830 the Acts relating to Boston and the ordinances,
and in 183^ an index, were added. The volume for
1822 contains fifteen pages, and for 1840 eighty-five
pages, and three pages of index. The volumes up to
and including 1840 bear the title of The Rules and Orders
of the Common Council and since that year the title
of The Municipal Register. The Municipal Regis-
ter for 1841 contains the Rules and Orders of the Com-
mon Council, joint rules, ordinances of the City, statutes
of the Commonwealth relating to the City, a list of the
public schools, the City Government of 1841, the com-
mittees and departments (consisting at that time of
the treasury, law, police, health, public land and build-
ings, lamps and bridges, fire, and public charitable
institutions), and a list of the ward officers; from 1842
to 1864 it also contains a list of the members of pre-
ceding City Governments, a necrological record of those
members, the latest ordinances and the special statutes
relating to the City; in 1851 a list of the annual orators
was added, and in 1853 a map of the City and the Rules
of the Board of Aldermen were inserted; in 1876 sta-
tistics of registration and voting were included, and,
since 1879, in tabulated form; in 1883 portraits of the
Mayor and presiding officers of the two branches of
the City Council were included, and in 1888 a list of
the members of the past City Governments of Roxbury
and Charlestown was added and continued to 1890.
From 1889 to 1896, inclusive. The Municipal Register
contained a compilation of the Charter and Acts sub-
sequently passed, in the place of which an index of the
same appeared in 1897. The Amended Charter of 1909
was added in 1910, while the alphabetical list of Alder-
men and Councilmen since 1822 was dropped.

By the direction of the Committee on Rules The
Municipal Register of 1912 has been compiled by the
Statistics Department. Text and tables have been
revised, and various new tables, with additional text,
have been incorporated, including statistics of Hyde
Park, now Ward 26.

MUNICIPAL REGISTER.

ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF BOSTON.

The Royal Patent incorporating the Governor and
Company of Massachusetts Bay in New England passed
the seals March * 4, 1628-29. At a General Court, or
Meeting of the Company, on August *29 of that year it
was voted 'Hhat the Government and patent should be
settled in New England." To that end Governor Win-
throp led the Puritan Exodus in 1630. Soon after his
arrival at Salem on June * 12, 1630, he proceeded with a
large following to Charlestown, where a plantation had
been established the summer before. The Assistants
held three Courts at Charlestown in the interval, August
*23 to September *28, inclusive. At their meeting
on September *7, they ''ordered that Trimountaine
shalbe called Boston; Mattapan, Dorchester; and the
towne upon Charles River, Waterton." Thus Shawmut
of the Indians was named Boston, probably out of grati-
tude to the Merchants of Boston in Lincolnshire, who
had subscribed generously to the stock of the Company.

In the course of the summer. Governor Winthrop
with the patent chose Boston as his abiding place.
The first ''Court" held in Boston was a "General Court"
on October *19, "for establishing of the government."
On October *3, 1632, Boston was formally declared
to be "the fittest place for publique meetings of any
place in the Bay."

Boston was the first town in Massachusetts to become
a city. It was incorporated February 23, 1822, by
St. 1821, c. 110, adopted March 4, 1822. This act was
revised by St. 1854, c. 448, commonly called the City
Charter, adopted November 13, 1854.

The neck of land called Boston, still called Boston
Proper, contained perhaps 700 acres of land, judging
from the 783 acres shown by the official survey of 1794,
In the interval 1630-37, Boston acquired jurisdiction
over most of the territory now included in Chelsea,
Winthrop, Revere, East Boston, Brookline, Quincy,
Braintree, Randolph and Holbrook, besides certain
islands in the harbor. From 1637 till May 13, 1640,

* Old Style.

ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF BOSTON. 7

when ''Mount Woollaston" was set off as Braintree,
Boston exercised jurisdiction over a territory of at least
40,000 acres. Within its present limits there are 30,295
acres, including flats and water.

Since 1640, grants of land have been made to Boston
by the General Court as follows: (1) October *16, 1660,
1,000 acres ''for the use of a free schoole, layd out in
the wildernesse or North of the Merimake River" (in
Haverhill), in 1664. (2) June *27, 1735, in abatement
of Province Tax, three townships, each six miles square,
or 69,120 acres in all. These townships later became
the Towns of Charlemont, Colrain, and Pittsfield.
Boston sold its interest in them June *30, 1737, for
£3,660. (3) June 26, 1794, a township of land in
Maine (23,040 acres) "to build a public hospital." This
tract was sold by the City April 6, 1833, for $4,200.

Muddy River was set off as the Town of Brookline
on November *13-, 1705, and Rumney Marsh was set
off as the Town of Chelsea January *8, 1739.

The principal annexations of territory included within
the present limits of the City of Boston have been made
as follows:

(1) Noddle's Island, by order of Court of Assistants, March
*9, 1636-37. (2) South Boston set off from Dorchester March
6, 1804, by St. 1803, c. 111. (3) Washington Village set off
from Dorchester May 21, 1855, by St. 1855, c. 468. (4) Rox-
bury January 6, 1868, by St. 1867, c. 359, accepted September

9, 1867. Roxbury received its name by order of the Court of
Assistants October * 8, 1630. It was incorporated a City March
12, 1846, by St. 1846, c. 95, accepted March 25, 1846. (5) Dor-
chester January 3, 1870, by St. 1869, c. 349, accepted June 22,
1869. It received its name September *7, 1630, by order of
the Court of Assistants. (6) Brighton January 5, 1874, by St.
1873, c. 303, accepted October 7, 1873. Set off from Cambridge
as the Town of Brighton February 24, 1807, by St. 1806, c. 65.
(7) Charlestown January 5, 1874, by St. 1873, c. 286, accepted
October 7, 1873. Settled July *4, 1629. It was incorporateci^
a City February 22, 1847, by St. 1847, c. 29, accepted March

10, 1847. (8) West Roxbury January 5, 1874, by St. 1873, c.
314, accepted October 7, 1873. It was set off from Roxbury
and incorporated a Town May 24, 1851, by St. 1851, c. 250.
(9) Hyde Park January 1, 1912, by St. 1911, c. 469, and 583,
accepted November 7, 1911. Incorporated a Town April 22,
1868.

THE CITY SEAL
As it appeared prior to 1827.

The City Seal was adopted by ''An Ordinance to
Establish the City Seal," passed January 2, 1823, which
provides ''That the design hereto annexed, as sketched
by John R. Penniman, giving a view of the City, be the
device of the City Seal; that the motto be as follows,
to wit: 'Sicut patribus sit Deus nobis'; and that the
inscription be as follows: — 'Bostonia condita, A.D.
1630. Civitatis regimine donata, A.D. 1822.'" The
motto is taken from 1 Kings, viii., 57.

The seal as it then appeared is shown above.
_ The seal as it was afterwards changed, and has ever
since continued to be used, first appeared on page 221
of the volume of laws and ordinances, commonly known
as the "First Revision," pubHshed in 1827, and is con-
tinued as the City Seal at the present time by Revised
Ordinances of 1898, Chapter 1, Section 5, which provides
that "The seal of the City shall be circular in form;
shall bear a view of the City; the motto 'Sicut Patri-
bus Sit Deus Nobis,' and the inscription, 'Bostonia
Condita, A.D. 1630. Civitatis Regimine Donata,
A.D. 1822,' as herewith set forth."

The seal as changed in 1827, and as it has ever since
appeared, is shown opposite the title page.

branches of the present city council of the city of Boston and of the
street commissioner whose term would expire on the first Monday of
January, nineteen hundred and ten, are hereby extended to ten o'clock
A.M. on the first Monday of February, nineteen hundred and ten, and

learning of the existence of such contract or that such contract is pro-
posed, shall notify in writing the mayor, city council, and finance com-
mission of such contract and of the nature of his interest in such contract
and shall abstain from doing any official act on behalf of the city in reference
thereto. In case of such interest on the part of an officer whose duty it
is to make such contract on behalf of the city, the contract may be made
by any other officer of the city duly authorized thereto by the mayor,
or if the mayor has such interest by the city clerk: provided, however,
that when a contractor with the city or county is a corporation or voluntary
association, the ownership of less than five per cent of the stock or shares
actually issued shall not be considered as being an interest in the contract
within the meaning of this act, and such ownership shall not affect the
vaUdity of the contract, unless the owner of such stock or shares is also
an officer or agent of the corporation or association, or solicits or takes
part in the making of the contract.

A violation of any provision of this section shall render the contract
in respect to which such violation occurs voidable at the option of the

years. They were incorporated by an act of the General Court passed
April 4, 1878, and are authorized to receive and hold real and personal
estate which may be given, granted, bequeathed or devised to the said
corporation, to an amount not exceeding $1,000,000. The first Trustees
were appointed under an ordinance of October 14, 1852. The old Library
Building on Boylston street was opened to the public in September,
1858, and closed finally in January, 1895. The new Library Building on
Copley square was first opened on March 11, 1895. The Library is
maintained by an annual appropriation voted out of the general funds
of the City by the City Council. About $25,990 of this appropriation
was used in 1911 for the purchase of books and periodicals. The Library
also holds trust funds a,ggregating $448,749, the interest of which is devoted
to the purchase of books.

The annual reports, the first of which appeared in 1852, have been
continued without interruption.

Of the Quarterly Bulletins begun in 1867, fourteen volumes have been
pubhshed. The series closed in 1896.

A Quarterly Bulletin of a new series is now issued, and a weekly Hst
of new books added to the Library. The Trustees have issued also general
and special catalogues of the Central Library, and of its branches and
special collections, as well as hand-books for readers, and other docu-
ments.

LIBRARY SYSTEM.

The Library system consists of the Central Library in Copley square;
twelve branch hbraries with independent collections of books; sixteen
reading-room stations (minor branches), all of which contain deposits of
books from the Central Library, reference books and periodicals. There
were, on February 1, 1912, in the Central Library, Branch Libraries and
reading-rooms, 559 employees, including 249 who are employed in the
evening and on Sunday, some of whom also work during the week; and
including also a certain number who only work a few hours or days in
each week.

Between the Central Library and these twenty-eight stations, by
library wagons, there is a daily exchange of books and cards, whereby
persons Hving in outlying districts can draw books from the Central
Library without the necessity of coming in person.

The dehvery or deposit of books is also undertaken in one himdred
and ten pubhc and parochial schools, thirty-three institutions and sixty-
one fire company houses.

Cards allowing the use of two books without restriction as to class,
for two weeks, are issued to all residents of Boston with no further attend-
ant delay than is involved in identification. No guaranty is asked,
except in case of a sojourner. Such cards are also issued to non-resident
pupils attending Boston schools who furnish guaranties. For reading
and reference the Library is open to all without formaUty. Special cards
for more extended pri\'ileges are issued to clergsonen officiating in the

City, and to teachers giving instruction in Boston institutions of learn-
ing; a special card is also issued in certain cases by the Trustees. On
February 1, 1912, there were 89,162 card-holders having the right to draw
books for home use. The total number of volumes was 1,006,717, and of
different newspapers and periodicals currently received at the Central
Library and branches about 2,152. Books issued in 1911, for home use
and for use through schools and institutions, numbered 1,612,270; of
reference use, on account of the freedom with which books may be
consulted, no adequate statistics are kept.

The total expenditure for park purposes other than maintenance to
January 31, 1912, was $19,280,200, expended as follows: For land,
$8,560,348; for construction, $10,719,852.

The Arnold Arboretum, containing originally 122.6 acres, belonging to
Harvard College, was taken with other lands, in 1881, for a public park,
and in 1895 another tract of about 68 acres on Peter's Hill, also belonging
to Harvard College, was taken, and the name Bussey Park was added to
the title. All the land in these tracts not required for driveways and walks,
a quarry reservation and traffic road, was leased to Harvard College, to be
used only for the purposes of an arboretum under the trusts created by
the wills of Benjamin Bussey and James Arnold. The arboretum is open
to visitors daily from 7 A.M. until sunset.

The Franklin Park Zoological Garden, now being constructed on the
northerly side of the park, is designed to occupy sixty to eighty acres, and
to cost $300,000 or more, and the Marine Park Aquarium, also under
construction, to cost approximately $125,000, the entire outlay for both
to be appropriated from the George F. Parkman Fund income.

REGISTRY DEPARTMENT. 89

The first water document published by the City of Boston appeared
in 1825. The pubhc introduction of water from Lake Cochituate took
place on October 25, 1848. The history of the Boston Water Works up
to January 1, 1868, has been written by Nathaniel J. Bradlee; from 1868
to 1876, by Desmond FitzGerald; of the "Additional Supply from Sud-
bury River," by A. Fteley. In addition to the annual reports on the
Cochituate supply, from 1850, and of the Mystic supply, from 1866, there
are numerous special reports. By Chapter 449, Acts of 1895, the Boston
Water Board, the Water Income Department and the Water Registrar
were abolished and the Water Department created, a single commissioner
being entrusted with all the powers previously exercised by the Boston
Water Board and the Boston Water Registrar.

By Chapter 488, Acts of 1895, the State provided for a metropolitan
water supply, Boston being included among the municipahties thus to be
supphed. A State Commission, the Metropolitan Water Board, in accord-
ance with said act, took possession, in 1898, of all that part of the Boston
water system lying westward of Chestnut Hill Reservoir, also the pumping
station there, with adjacent lands. The sum paid to the City was
$12,531,000. Payments to the State by the City for its supply of water
have been regularly made since 1898. The daily average amount of water
used in 1911 was 85,571,500 gallons, or 124 gallons per capita. This
daily average is 1,775,200 gallons less than that reported for 1910.

of all buildings by proper safety devices; to inspect all wires carrying
electric light, heating or power current within buildings, and to see that
all wires, posts, machinery and appliances are kept in good order and

Chapter 249 of the Acts of 1898 provides that in each of the years
1900-1909, inclusive, the Commissioner of Wires shall prescribe the Umits

after to 1916 inclusive, within which all wires, cables and conductors shall
during the calendar year be removed (with the poles or other structures
supporting them) and placed underground. Certain wires of street rail-

cost of the bridge is apportioned among three parties. The Boston Elevated
Railway Company pays such portion as shall be rendered necessary by
reason of the bridge being of additional size and strength for the use of
the elevated railroad, and shall construct or pay for constructing its
railway, both elevated and surface, across the bridge. The balance of
the cost is payable one-half by the City of Boston and one-half by the
City of Cambridge. This bridge was opened to the public and placed in
charge of the Boston and Cambridge Bridge Commissioners in December,
1907. The surface railway and the elevated railway are both in opera-
tion, the latter since March 23, 1912.

The Frankhn Foundation is incorporated under Chapter 569 of the
Acts of 1908, and has sole charge of the Franklin Union, as well as the
management of the Franklin Fund.

The Franklin Fund is the proceeds of a bequest of one thousand pounds
to "the Inhabitants of the Town of Boston in Massachusetts" made by
Benjamin Franklin, in a codicil to his will dated June 23, 1789. The
codicil provided that the fund "if accepted by the inhabitants of the

Town of Boston" be managed "under the direction of the Selectmen,
united with the Minister of the oldest Episcopalian, Congregational,
and Presbyterian Churches in that Town," who were to make loans on
certain conditions to "j^oung married artificers under the age of twenty-
five years."

Dr. Franklin, wIto died April 17, 1790, calculated that, in one hundred
years, the thousand pounds would grow to £131,000, "of which," he
says, " I would have the managers then lay out at their discretion £100,000
in Public Works which may be judged of most general utility to the
Inhabitants. The remaining £31,000, I would have continued to be
let out on interest for another hundred years. At the end of this second
term, if no unfortunate accident has prevented the operation, the sum
will be £4,061,000, of which I leave £1,061,000 to the Town of Boston,
and £3,000,000 to the disposition of the Government of the State, not
presuming to carry my views farther." The Town accepted the donation
at a Town Meeting held June 1, 1790.

A futile suit brought b}' the Franklin heirs in 1891 prevented the division
of the fund at the expiration of one hundred years; but on January 17,
1894, by direction of the three ministers and the Board of Aldermen
of the City, which board claimed to be the successors of the "Selectmen,"
$329,300.48 (llJy of the fund) was paid to the City Treasurer, for "the
purchase of land and the erection thereon of the Franklin Trades School
and for the equipment of the same." Owing to a series of complications
the money has remained in the custody of the Treasurer. Mayor Collins,
in 1902, caused a petition of the City to be filed in the Supreme Court,
praying for instructions as to the authority of the persons then acting as
Managers of the fund. The Court rendered an opinion November 25, 1903
(184 Mass. 373, page 43), to the effect that the three ministers were
Managers of the fund under Franklin's will, but that the Aldermen did
not succeed the "Selectmen" as Managers and had no powers with refer-
ence to it. The Court, under its general power to care for public charitable
funds, appointed, on March 16, 1904, the above Managers to take the
place of the "Selectmen," and provided in the decree of the Court that
the Mayor of Boston should be one, ex officio. On October 20, 1904, the
City Treasurer, ex officio, was appointed by the Board of Managers as
treasurer of the fund.

On December 2, 1905, the City Treasurer received from Mr. Andrew
Carnegie $408,396.48, said sum being the amount of the Frankhn Fund,
August, 1904, which Mr. Carnegie agreed to duplicate.

On January 31, 1906, the amount available for expenditure by the
Managers was $426,824.78. The Frankhn Accumulating Fund, which
will become available in 1991, amounted, on January 31, 1912, to
$208,898.14.

The Franklin Trades School, or Franklin Union as it is now called,
occupies its own building at the corner of Appleton and Berkeley streets,
which was opened in September, 1908. It is maintained by the income
from the Franklin Union Trust Fund, the latter amounting to $475,876
on January 31, 1912. The building contains 24 classrooms and 6

draughting-rooms, where 1,700 or more students receive free instruction.
There is also a technical and scientific library, and a large hall with a
seating capacity of 1,000 for lectures, concerts, discussions and similar
purposes. The building with equipment cost about $400,000. The site
was purchased in 1906 for $100,000.

Captain Thomas Ryan, Chief Clerk. Salary, $2,500.

The Board of Police for the City of Boston was established by Chapter
323 of the Acts of 1885, and was composed of three citizens of Boston,
appointed for five years from the two principal poUtical parties by the
Governor, with the advice and consent of the Executive Council. The
Board assumed office on July 23, 1885. By Chapter 291 of the Acts of
1906, the department was placed in charge of a single head, to be known
as the Pohce Commissioner.

The powers of the Board of Police, except those relating to the grant-
ing of intelligence office, billiard and pool, common victualers' and
liquor licenses, which were transferred to the newly created Licensing
Board, devolve upon the Police Commissioner. The Police Commis-
sioner assumed office June 4, 1906.

The City is divided into sixteen Police Districts, in each of which is a
station-house, the headquarters of a captain and force of men. The
Commissioner appoints a Harbor Master and assistants from the police
force, and they receive pay in accordance with their rank in the force.
The poUce steamer "Guardian" and the steam launches "Ferret" and
"Watchman" are employed in this service.

By Chapter 279 of the Acts of 1903, as amended by Chapter 440 of
the Acts of 1909, the Board of Police were required to ascertain, within
the first seven days of April in each year, the name, age, occupation and
residence of every male person twenty years of age or over in the City of
Boston and also to make lists of the women voters.

Stephen O'Meara.
John M. Minton.
Captain Thomas Ryan, Secretary.
By Chapter 291 of the Acts of 1906, the powers and duties of the Board
of Police relative to the listing and registration of voters were transferred
to a Listing Board, to be composed of the Pohce Commissioner and one
member of the Board of Election Commissioners to be annually appointed
by the Mayor of Boston. Such member must belong to that one of the
two leading parties of which the Police Commissioner is not a member.
In case of disagreement the Chief Justice of the Municipal Court becomes
a member for the purpose of settling such disagreement.

By Chapter 440, Acts of 1909, the time for the police listing was
changed to the first week of April.

REGULATION OF THE HEIGHT OF BUILDINGS. 147

REGULATION OF THE HEIGHT OF
BUILDINGS.

[Stat. 1904, Chap. 333; Stat. 1905, Chap. 383.]
By Stat. 1904, Chap. 333, the Legislature provided that the City of
Boston should be divided into two districts, designated as Districts A and
B, and that if not repugnant to some other statute, buildings could be
erected in District A to a height of 125 feet, but that except as to certain
projections above the roof, no buildings could be erected in District B to a
height greater than 80 feet. A commission consisting of Nathan Matthews,
Joseph A. Conry, and Henry Parkman was appointed by Mayor Collins,
June 7, 1904, to determine the limits of these districts, and it made a pre-
liminary order on July 5, 1904, which was revised December 3, 1904. Under
Stat. 1905, Chap. 383, the Legislature made certain minor changes in the
law, and also authorized the erection of buildings to a height not exceeding
100 feet in such parts of District B, and on such conditions, as a commission
should determine. The same commission was reappointed under this act
and made a preliminary order July 21, 1905, which was revised November
20, 1905. [See Document 133, 1905.]

District A includes the waterfront regions extending around East Bos-
ton, Charlestown, and the northerly and westerly sides of South Boston as
far as East First and West First streets, Dorchester avenue, and Southamp-
ton street, a narrow strip extending through Wards 12 and 9 east of Albany
street to Broadway, thence the boundary line extends northwesterly and
westerly through Pleasant, Piedmont, and Ferdinand streets to Columbus
avenue, thence across to the corner of Boylston and Arlington streets, along
Boylston to Tremont, thence to Park, Beacon, Bowdoin, and Cambridge
streets, thence through Cambridge, Staniford, Green, and Leverett streets to
Charles River Dam. Of the City Proper, all of Ward 6, nearly all of Ward
7 and the northeastern half of Ward 8 are within District A.

District B comprises all other territory in the City. In this district
buildings may in general be erected to a height of not more than 80 feet, but
on streets exceeding 64 feet in width the height may be equal to one and a
quarter times the width of the widest street upon which the building stands,
said height to be measured from the mean grade of the curbs of all streets
upon which the building is situated and not to exceed in any event 100 feet
above such point of measurement. On all. streets or portions of streets
upon which buildings may be erected on one side only, the buildings may
be erected to a height of 100 feet. No building may be erected to a
height greater than 80 feet unless its width on each and every public street

148 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.

upon which it stands be at least one-half its height. Certain special
exceptions to the general regulations affecting District B have been made
as follows:

1. No building can be erected to a height greater than 70 feet, measured
on its principal front, in the territory bounded by Beacon street, Joy street.
Myrtle street, Hancock street and Hancock avenue.

2. So long as the property owned by the City of Boston on Dalton,
Belvidere and Scotia streets shall be used for a Mechanic Arts High School
any building or buildings thereon may be erected to a height of 100 feet.

3. Buildings may be erected to a height not exceeding 125 feet in that
portion of District B which Ues 50 feet westerly from the boundary line
rvmning from Columbus avenue to the centre of Boylston street separating
District A from District B, provided that said portion of District B is
owned by the same person or persons who own the adjoining premises in
District A.

4. No building can be erected on a parkway, boulevard or public way
on which a building Une has been estabUshed by the Board of Park Com-
missioners or by the Board of Street Commissioners acting under any
general or special statute, to a greater height than that allowed by the order
of said Boards.

5. No building upon any land, any owner of which has received and
retained compensation in damages for any Umitation of height, or who
retains any claim for such damages, can be erected to a height greater than
that fixed by the limitation for which such damages were received or
claimed.

WARDS.

New wards were established for the City in the year eighteen hundred
and ninety-five, the first division into new wards since the year 1875.^ An
attempt was made by the City Council to make a new division of wards
in the year 1885, and an ordinance to that effect was prepared by a
special committee appointed for the purpose, passed by the City Council
and approved by the Mayor.'- Certain questions were raised, how-
ever, in the General Court of 1886, relative to establishing State, sena-
torial and representative districts, and as to whether such districts should
be estabhshed according to the territorial boundaries of cities and towns
and their wards as they existed on the first day of May, 1885, or whether
new ward lines, as in the case of the City of Boston, should be followed.
On May 21, 1886, the opinion of the Justices of the Supreme Judicial
Court was asked by the Legislature on this matter, and they decided
that the district divisions referred to must 'be made according to terri-
torial and other boundaries existing on the first day of May, 1885, and
that the new ward divisions were illegal.^ On account of this opinion
of the Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court, an act was passed by the
Legislature in June, 1886,* which provided that the several wards, pre-
cincts, and assessment districts of the several cities of the Commonwealth,
existing May 1, 1885, should be established as the wards, precincts,
and assessment districts of said cities, any acts or ordinances of the city
councils of said cities to the oontrary notwithstanding. The new divi-
sion of wards was thus set aside and. the ward lines established in 1875
remained in effect until they were changed in 1895 and established under
the provisions of Chapter 417 of the Acts of 1893, as below. According
to this act, a city may be redivided into wards in every tenth year after
1895, but this is not mandatory. In 1905 a new division of the City was
attempted by the City Council, but neither of the plans submitted was
adopted.

A new ward (Ward 26) was added to the twenty-five wards of the City
existing since 1895, by the annexation of Hyde Park Jan. 1, 1912, as pro-
vided by Chapter 469, Acts of 1911.

1 An ordinance providing for a new division of the City into wards passed Nov. 16,
1875. An ordinance to make Breed's Island, so-called, part of Ward 1 passed Dec. 4,
1875. By Chap. 242 of the Acts of 1876 the City Council were directed to divide Ward
Twenty-two into two wards to be called Wards 22 and 25. The division was accord-
ingly made by an ordinance, passed May 27, 1876.

2 An ordinance making a new divisibn of the city into wards passed Dec. 23, 1885.

ENUMERATED POPULATION OF BOSTON, APRIL 15, 1910,
670,585.

ESTIMATED POPULATION, APRIL 15, 1912,

711,120.

According to the returns of the United States Bureau of the Census,
the population of Boston on April 15, 1910, was 670,585. This shows an
increase of 109,693, or 19.56 per cent, in the population since June 1, 1900,
when it was 560,892 (Federal census) ; and of 12.63 per cent, over that of
May 1, 1905, viz., 595,380, enumerated by the State Census.

' The estimated population of the City as of April 15, 1912, based on the
observed increase from June 1, 1900, to April 15, 1910, is 711,120, including
Ward 26 (Hyde Park). The Census of 1910 by wards and precincts is
shown on the following page.

Since 1875 the only considerable amount of territory annexed to Boston
is Hj'de Park, whose population on April 15, 1910, was 15,507, and esti-
mated to be, at same date in 1912, 15,987.

The following statement shows the population in each census year, with
the absolute and relative increase, for 35 years, 1875-1910, by intercensal
periods:

Total of City 670,585

Note. — The existing wards are the same as those created by ordinance in 1895, but four-
teen precincts were added in the fifteen years ending 1910, viz.: Precincts nine to fifteen
(inclusive) in Ward 20, ten, eleven and twelve in Ward 21, ten, eleven and twelve in Ward 24
and precinct nine in Ward 19, making the total number of precincts, 205 in 1910. For- later
additions see page 159.

According to chapter 417, Acts of 1893, a city may be redivided into wards in every tenth
year after 1895, but this is not mandatory. After the State Census in 1905, a new division of
Boston was attempted by the City Council, but neither of the plans submitted was adopted,
and no division can now be made until 1915 unless sanctioned by a special legislative act.
