INTRODUCTION.

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 1832 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 Registee. 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 1915 has been compiled by the
Statistics Department.

OEIGIN 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,

ORIGIN AND GROWTH OF BOSTON. 7

when '^ Mount WooUaston" 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 pubhc 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 incorporated
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," published 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 Patei-
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 on the second page.

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

validity 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.

The Trustees of the Public Library of the City of Boston, who are five
in number, are appointed by the Mayor, one each year, for a term of five
years. They were incorporated by an act of the General Court passed
April 4, 1S78, 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 Central 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 $47,144 of this appropriation
was used in 1914 for the purchase of books and periodicals. The Library
trust funds in the custody of the City Treasurer amounted to $517,631 on
February 1,1915, the annual interest on these being used for 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
published. The series closed in 1896.

A Quarterly Bulletin of a new series is now issued, and a weekly list
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;
fourteen branch libraries 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, 1915, in the Central Library, branch libraries and
reading-rooms, 568 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 work only a few hours or days in
each week.

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

* The Trustees serve without compensation.

LIBRARY DEPARTMENT. 65

The delivery or deposit of books is also undertaken in one hundred
and fifty-five public and parochial schools, thirty-eight institutions and
sixty-two 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 formality. Special cards
for more extended privileges are issued to clergymen 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, 1915, there were 107,463 card-holders having the right to draw
books for home use. The total number of volumes was 1,098,702, and of
different newspapers and periodicals currently received at the Central
Library and branches about 2,200. Books issued in 1914, for home use
and for use through schools and institutions, numbered 2,012,589. Of
reference use, on account of the freedom with which books may be
consulted, no adequate statistics are kept.

Patrick H. Graham, Superintendent of Markets. Salary, $3,000. Term
ends in 1918.

Faneuil Hall Market, proposed in Mayor Quincy's message of July 31,
1823, and completed in 1826, was under the charge of a Clerk of the
Market imtil an ordinance of September 9, 1852, established the office
of Superintendent. According to the Revised Ordinances of 1898, Chap.
1, §4, tenth, Faneuil Hall Market includes the lower floor, porches and
cellar of the buildings called respectively Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market.
The Superintendent has charge and control of these two buildings. He
may assign stands within their limits; and it is his duty, from time to
time, to lease the stalls in the market for five years at rents not less than
those established by the City Council. The market poUce are appointed
by the Police Commissioner and under his control.

As a municipal enterprise the Quincy Market has been steadily profitable,
yielding a total net income in rentals, etc., of about $4,500,000 in the past 70
years. Faneuil Hall Market yields $15,000 to $16,000 net yearly income,
or about one-sixth that of Quincy Market. For a historical and financial

corporation called "Overseers of the Poor in the City of Boston," consist-
ing of twelve residents of Boston, four of whom are appointed annually
to serve for the term of three years from the first day of May. The
Board has issued annual reports since 1865.

The Overseers of the Poor are also incorporated as a Board of Trus-
tees of John Boylston's and other charitable funds, left for the assist-
ance of persons of good character and advanced age, "who have been
reduced by misfortune to indigence and want."

In charge of the Overseers are the Wayfarers' Lodge on Hawkins street,
opened in 1878, which gives free lodging to homeless men who are out of
employment, but exacts work in its woodyard for meals furnished; and the
Temporary Home on Chardon street for destitute women and children,

1912, which went into effect in March, 1913, it was merged with the Public
Grounds, Bath and Music Departments, under the name of Park and

Since the City's park development began, in 1877, the total expenditure,
to the close of 1914, for parks, parkways and playgrounds (exclusive of
the annual maintenance appropriation) is $20,732,700, or $9,181,545
for the land and $11,551,155 for construction.

The Arnold Arboretum (the "tree museum" of Harvard University),
containing originally 122.6 acres, was added with other lands, in 1882,
to the City's park system, under a special contract with Harvard Uni-
versity, and in 1895 another tract of 75 acres (Peters' Hill), also belonging
to the University, was included, the name Bussey Park being added to
the title. All the land in these tracts not required for driveways and walks,
a quarry reservation and traffic road is used, under the trusts created by
the wills of Benjamin Bussey and James Arnold, for Harvard's extensive
collection of specimens of such trees and shrubs as wUl live in this climate.
The City maintains the roads and walks, also attends to policing the
grounds. The arboretum is open to visitors daily from 7 A.M. until sunset.

The new Franklin Park Zoological Garden on the northern side of the park
is designed to occupy sixty to eighty acres when completed. Up to Feb-
ruary 1, 1915, the amount expended for construction, etc., was $296,254,
and for animals $11,990. In the summer of 1912, the group of bear dens,

78 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.

the aquatic flying cage, etc., were finished and put on exhibition, in 1913
the bird house with other attractions and in 1914 the elephant house
were added. The new Marine Park Aquarium, costing $144,530 for con-
struction, etc., was opened to the pubhc on November 28, 1912. The
entire outlay for both has been appropriated from the George F. Parkman
Fund income.

GEORGE F. PARKMAN FUND.

By the will of the late George F. Parkman, various real estate properties
worth between $5,000,000 and $6,000,000 were left to the City, the income
therefrom to be expended for the maintenance and improvement of the
Common and such parks as were in existence January 12, 1887, and no
part of it to be used for the purchase of additional land for park purposes.
The bequest was accepted by the City Council, March 9, 1909, since which
date most of the realty has been sold and the proceeds invested in munic-
ipal and other bonds. On February 1, 1915, the piincipal of the fund in
the custody of the City Treasurer amounted to $4,953,176. In the fiscal
year, 1914-15, the income from the fund was $195,525, i. e., about four

per cent.

The Division Engineer of this division has charge of the preparation of
plans for and the construction of new sewers, the repairing and cleaning
of existing sewers and catch-basins, the granting of permits for making
sewer connections, and the investigation of complaints in regard to defec-
tive drainage; the care and maintenance of all pipes and other fixtures
and appliances held by the City for the purposes of its water supply,
including the laying and relaying of pipes, the installation and testing of
meters and the placing of public drinking fountains, also the assessing of
water rates and issuing of the bills therefor. Assessments upon the estates
benefited by new sewers are not levied by the Public Works Department
but by the Board of Street Commissioners.

The total length of common and intercepting sewers in the City on
January 1, 1915, was 899 miles; of supply and distributing water mains,
838.57 miles; number of water meters then in use, 48,339 or 6,685
more than in 1914 at same date; number of public fire hydrants, 9,132;
number of public drinking fountains, 158, of which 104 are fitted with
hygienic bubble fixtures and 54 are for animals only.

The first water document published by the City of Boston appeared
in 1825. The public 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 abohshed 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 municipalities thus to be
supplied. A State Commission, the Metropolitan Water Board, in accord-

94 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.

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 total number of water rate payers {i. e., to the City) on January 1,
1915, was 101,765 and the daily average amount of water used in 1914
was 81,877,800 gallons, or 109 gallons per capita. This daily average is
2,487,200 gallons more than that reported for 1913.

HIGH PRESSURE FIRE SERVICE.

By the provisions of Chapter 312, Acts of 1911, the Commissioner of
Public Works was authorized to install an efficient system of high pressure
fire service for the City, appropriations therefor, amounting to $1,000,000,
to be voted by the City Council in sums of not less than $150,000 each
year for six years. Up to February 1, 1915, the total of loans for this
purpose was $685,000 and the total expenditui-e $445,952. The supply
of water will be taken from the Charles river and a pumping station is
soon to be constructed.

The oflBce of Commissioner of Wires was established in 1894, in accord-
ance with Chapter 454 of the Acts of that year.

The department has issued annual reports, beginning February 1, 1895.

Under the statute of 1894, it was made the duty of the Commissioner
of Wires to have all unexempted electric wires, cables and conductors
in the City north of Dover and Berkeley streets, and between the Charles
river, the Harbor and Fort Point channel placed underground, and to
remove all unexempted poles and structures in the streets within the said
district before January 1, 1900.

overhead wires, cables and conductors; to regulate the direction of such
wires, cables and conductors, and see that they were sufiiciently insulated;
to secure the removal of dead or abandoned wires, and the protection
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
condition.

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

of a district within which, for not more than two miles of streets, avenues,
or highways, certain wires, cables and conductors shall be removed or
placed underground during the calendar year.

In accordance with Chapter 347 of the Acts of 1908, the Commissioner
is required in 1910, and in each year thereafter, to and including the
year 1919, to prescribe not more than two miles of streets, etc., within
which all wires, cables and conductors shall be put underground. Under
Section 2 of the same Act, the Commissioner is authorized to grant such
terminal pole locations as may be in his judgment necessary, and under
Section 3 he is authorized to make such rules and regulations relating
to the insulation of overhead and underground wires, cables and con-
ductors and appliances as may be reasonably necessary for the purposes
of safety.

The Commissioner is sole judge of what constitutes proper and safe
insulation of electric conductors and appliances within buildings, and
is authorized to make such rules and regulations as he may deem necessary
to secure safe insulation.

According to Chapter 339, Acts of 1908, any person, firm or corpora-
tion failing to notify the Commissioner of the installing of wiring or appa-
ratus for electric light, heat or power purposes shall be subject to a fine
of not less than ten nor more than fifty dollars for each offence.

Section 1 of Chapter 347, Acts of 1908, was repealed in 1911, as pro-
vided by Chapter 364, and the Commissioner was therein required to
prescribe not more than three miles of streets in 1912 and each year there-
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-

As first established in 1911, this Board consisted of five members (three
appointed by the Governor, one by the Mayor, and one ex officio, viz., the
Chairman of the Harbor and Land Commission), to serve as the administra-
tive officers of the Port of Boston. By Chapter 712, Acts of 1914, a new
board consisting of three members was substituted for the original Board,
the reorganization taking effect July 1, 1914. The three directors are
required to devote their entire time to their official duties. The regular
term for wliich they are to be appointed (by the Governor) is three years.
Their duties are to devise plans for the comprehensive development of the
harbor; to have charge of the lands on the water front owned by the State,
and of the construction of piers and other public works thereon; to adminis-
ter all terminal facilities under their control; to keep themselves thor-
oughly informed as to the present and probable future requirements
of steamsliips and shipping, and as to the best means which can be pro-
vided at the port of Boston for the accommodation of steamsliips, raihoads,
warehouses and industrial establishments. All the rights, powers and
duties exercised by the Harbor and Land Commission with regard to
Boston harbor and its shores or adjacent areas are now vested in the
new administrative board, wliich is authorized to expend $9,000,000
for effecting the improvements intended by the statute. Up to December
1, 1914, the total expenditure from this Port Development Fund was
$4,607,283, of which $2,755,889 was for Commonwealth Pier No. 5
(South Boston), construction, $688,582 for viaduct, dredging, etc., in con-
nection with same, also $287,331 on dry dock construction; $850,568 for
land, dredging, etc., in East Boston. The Port Directors have in their

two years preceding the date of their appointment. The two principal
political parties must be represented and the term of the members is
fixed at six years; after the first appointments, one member retiring every

of the Revised Laws and Amendments thereof, relative to intoxicating
liquors; and by Chapter 102 of the Revised Laws and Amendments

The Franklin 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 "young married artificers under the age of twenty-
five years."

Dr. Franklin, who 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.

* The Managers serve without compensation.

122 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.

A futile suit brought by the FrankUn 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 (if^ of the fund) was paid to the City Treasurer, for "the
purchase of land and the erection thereon of the FrankUn Trades School
and for the equipment of the same." Owing to a series of complications
the money remained in the custody of the Treasurer. Mayor Collins,
in 1902, caused a petition of the City to be filed in the Supreme Court,
prajdng 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 Frankhn'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 equal to the amount of the Franklin
Fund in August, 1904, which Mr. Carnegie agreed to duplicate. Only the
annual income from this fund is used.

On January 31, 1907, the amount of the "accumulated" fund available
for expenditure by the Managers was $438,741.89, and in that year the
Franklin Union Building was erected at the corner of Appleton and Ber-
keley streets. It was opened for the use of the Franklin Trades School,
or Franklin Union as it is now called, in September, 1908, and is main-
tained partly by the nominal registration fees, by rentals, and by the
income (i. e., $22,640 yearly) from the above mentioned Franklin Fund
{i. e., the Andrew Carnegie Donation), amounting to $481,258.74 on
January 31, 1915. The building contains 24 classrooms and 6 draughting-
rooms, where about 1,600 students receive instruction, the fees ranging
from $4 to $15, according to length of course. 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 $402,718. The site was purchased in 1906 for
$100,000.

The Franklin Accumulating Fund, which will become available in 1991,
amounted, on January 31, 1915, to $236,382.95.

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 political 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 Police Commissioner.

The powers of the Board of Police, except those relating to the grant-
ing of intelligence office, billiard and pool, skating rink, picnic grove,
bowling alley, common victualers' aiid liquor licenses, which were trans-
ferred to the newly created Licensing Board, devolve upon the Police
Commissioner. The present Police Commissioner assumed office June 4,
1906, for a term of five years and was reappointed in 1911 for another term.
The City is divided into eighteen 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 police steamer "Guardian" and the steam launches "Ferret,"
"Watchman" and "Alert" are employed in this service.

By Chapter 279 of the Acts of 1903 the Board of Police were required
to ascertain each year the name, age, occupation and residence on May 1
of every male person twenty years of age or over in the City of Boston
and also to make lists of the women voters.

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 Police 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 political 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 settUng such disagreement.

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

TERMS, HOLIDAYS AND VACATIONS OF DAY SCHOOLS.

The school year begins on the first day of September in each cal-
endar year and closes on August 31 of the following calendar year.

All day schools are in session from the second Wednesday in September
up to and including the Wednesday of the second calendar week pre-
ceding the Fourth of July, except on Saturdays and Sundays and the
following vacations and holidays; Columbus Day (October 12); from
12 o'clock noon on the day before Thanksgiving Day until the following
Monday; from 12 o'clock noon on the second calendar day immediately
preceding Christmas Day to and including the first day of the following
January; the Twenty-second of February; Good Friday; the week
beginning with the first Monday in April; the Nineteenth of April;
Memorial Day and the Seventeenth of June. Whenever any of the
aforesaid holidays, except the first day of January, falls upon Sunday,
the schools are not in session on the following Monday. Graduating
exercises are held during the second calendar week preceding the Fourth
of July.

MEDICAL INSPECTOES AND NURSES.

Regular medical inspection of the schools has been maintained since
1894, under the supervision of the Health Department. In the school
year 1914-15, the School Physicians employed in this work numbered 87.
For results of the inspection during the year 1913, see Table IX.-4, Bulletin
of Statistics Department, Vol. XV., Nos. 10, 11, 12. In that year 114,567
physical examinations were made. Beginning September 1, 1915, the
School Committee will have exclusive charge of medical inspection in the
schools.

Chapter 357, Acts of 1907, provided for the appointment by the School
Committee of one supervising female nurse and as many district female
nurses as are deemed necessary. Their duties are to assist the medical
inspectors in carrying out the latters' directions, and to give such
instruction to the pupils as will promote their physical welfare. For the
seventy elementary school districts there are now thirty-eight nurses in
the service, besides the supervising nurse.

PHYSICAL TRAINING.

By Chapter 295, Acts of 1907, the School Committee were authorized
to organize and conduct physical training and exercises, athletics, sports
and games and to provide therefor proper apparatus and facilities in the
buildings, yards and playgrounds under their control, also to make similar
use of all such facilities in charge of the Park and Recreation Commis-
sioners as the latter, with the Mayor's approval, might deem suitable.

The sum available for this branch of education is four cents on each
$1,000 of the City's assessed valuation, which in the year 1914-15 was
$59,083. Besides this, a special appropriation of $22,963 was provided
for playground activities.

140 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.

There are now a director, two assistant directors and one instructor of
physical training, also 133 playground teachers, the latter having charge
of games, gymnastics, etc., in the 29 schoolyard playgrounds and 50 park
plaj^grounds in use.

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOLS PARTLY MAINTAINED BY STATE.

By Chapter 471, Acts of 1911, and Chapter 106, Acts of 1912, the State
especially encourages the establishing of Independent Industrial Schools,
allowing financial aid for their maintenance proportionate to the
amount raised by local taxation and expended for all public schools.
Under this arrangement, the School Committee is reimbursed by the
State to the extent of one-half the net maintenance cost of such indus-
trials schools established in Boston thus far with the approval of the
State Board of Education. By Chapter 805, Acts of 1913, Continuation
Schools, for employed children between fourteen and sixteen years of age,
were included under the same plan of State aid. The eight schools thus
maintained are the Boston Industrial Day School for Boys, Evening Indus-
trial School for Boys, Trade Day School for Girls, Evening Trade School
for Girls, Evening Industrial School, Continuation School (Household Arts
Class), Compulsory Continuation School, also Training Class for Con-
tinuation School Teachers. In 1914-15 the amount received from the
State for this purpose was $55,355.

MANUAL TRAINING ROOMS.

There are seven manual training rooms located in high schools, one in
each of the following named districts : Brighton, Charlestown, Dorchester,

EVENING INT)USTRIAL SCHOOLS.

The term of the Evening Industrial Schools begins on the first Monday
in October, and continues for twenty-four school weeks. The sessions
are held on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings during the weeks
that the other evening schools are in session.

The central school is conducted in the Mechanic Arts High Schoolhouse,
at the corner of Belvidere and Dalton streets, and the two branches are in
the East Boston High Schoolhouse, Marion street, East Boston and Old
Dearborn Schoolhouse, Dearborn place, Roxbury. At the Boston Indus-
trial School for Boys and the Trade School for Girls, evening classes are
also held.

CONTINUATION SCHOOLS.

Classes are held at the main building, 25 La Grange street, at 48 Boylston
street, at 52 Tileston street and in various stores and factories.

All children 14 to 16 years of age employed under an employment
certificate are compelled by law (Chapter 805, Acts of 1913) to attend the
school four hours per week. Sessions, 8 a. m. to 12 m. and 1 to 5 p. m.,
every week day except Saturday during the time the regular schools are
at work. The courses of instruction include reading, writing and arith-
metic, office procedure, business practice, salesmanship, prevocational and
trade extension work, metalwork, woodwork, power machine, electricity,
printing, dressmaking, millinery and household arts. Voluntary classes
are conducted for pupils over 16 years of age at 52 Tileston street, Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, 10 a. m. to 12 m. and 3 to 5 p. m. At
48 Boylston street, English for non-English speaking people is taught on
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 8.30 to 10.30
a. m. and from 2.30 to 5 p. m.

Beginning January 3, 1916, advanced classes will be conducted in a
course of twelve weeks, studying textiles and the shoe and leather industry.
Classes in other similar studies may be added on demand.

SUMMER REVIEW SCHOOLS.

These supplementary schools, one high and six elementary, for pupils
who have been retarded in their studies, were started on June 22, 1914.
The term is forty days, morning sessions only, and the registration of
pupils in 1914 was 4,193 in the elementary schools and 424 in the high
school.

USE OF SCHOOL PROPERTY FOR SOCIAL AND CIVIC PURPOSES.

By the provisions of Chapter 195, Acts of 1912, the School Committee
may allow the school property under their control to be used by associa-
tions and individuals for social, recreative and civic purposes such as
may be of benefit to the community, with the understanding that such
use shall nowise interfere with the regular school work, and that no
admission fee shall be charged. The School Committee may annually
appropriate for this purpose a sum equal to two cents on each $1,000 of

DEPARTMENT OF SCHOOL COMMITTEE. 143

the City's assessed valuation. This plan was started by establishing
four Evening Centers, each having a manager, in four high schoolhouses,
viz.: Charlestown, East Boston, Roxbury and South Boston, beginning
in October, 1912, and continuing five months. Two more were started in
1913, viz., the Washington Center, in Washington Schoolhouse and the
Dorchester Center in the high schoolhouse there. In 1914 the Abraham
Lincoln Center on Ferdinand street was added, making seven. A variety
of study clubs, lectures, concerts and other entertainments are included
in these activities. The centers remain in session from October to June,
on three alternate evenings a week with some variation as to days. Their
membership is limited to persons over 14 years of age who are not pupils
in the regular day schools. Widening interest in the centers has extended
their activities to one or more afternoons each week. The appeal of the
School Center that "every plus talent of a community be used through
it" for mutual benefit is meeting with response. The basements of 103
schoolhouses are used by the Election Department as polling places.
In the larger school halls municipal concerts are given, and their use for
public meetings of citizens is usually permitted when requested.

PENSION AND RETIREMENT FUNDS FOR TEACHERS.

As provided by Chapter 589, Acts of 1908, amended by Chapter 617,
Acts of 1910, the School Committee, by a majority vote of all its members,
may retire with a pension any member of the teaching or supervising
staff of the public day schools who has reached the age of sixty-five years,
also such other members as are incapacitated for further efficient service.
If the teacher retired has been employed in the public day schools for
a period of thirty years or more, ten years of which has been in Boston, the
pension paid amounts to one-third of the annual salary received at time of
retirement, but in no case is it less than $312 nor more than $600 annually.
If the period of service is less than thirty years, the pension is proportion-
ally less. The School Committee are authorized to provide for these
pensions by appropriating annually an amount equal to five cents on each
$1 000 of the City's assessed valuation. The Permanent School Pension
Fund thus accumulated amounted to $201,699, February 1, 1915, and
256 retired teachers were receiving pensions therefrom.

The Boston Teachers' Retirement Fund Association, started in 1900,
is paying $132 per year to 266 annuitants, and the total amount of its
fund on February 1, 1915, was $421,428. At that date 2,767 teachers
were each contributing $18 per year to this fund.

By Chapter 304, Special Acts of 1915, the School Committee are
authorized to appropriate annually, for the purpose of paying pensions to
retired teachers, an amount equal to seven cents (instead of five cents, as
hitherto) on each $1,000 of the City's assessed valuation. Hence, the
total appropriation for the year 1915-16 was raised to $105,753.

Regulation of the Height of Buildings.

[Stat. 1904, Chap. 333; Stat. 1905, Chap. 383; Stat. 1907, Chap 416;
Stat. 1912, Chap. 582; Stat. 1914, Chap. 786.]
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 prehminary order July 21, 1905, which was revised November
20, 1905. [See Document 133, 1905.]

REGULATION OF THE HEIGHT OF BUILDINGS. 161

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 Arhngton streets, along
Boylston to Tremont, thence to Park, Beacon, Bowdoin, and Cambridge
streets, thence through Cambridge, Stamford, 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
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 lies 50 feet westerly from the boundary line
running 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 line has been established 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 limitation 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.

162 MUNICIP.IL REGISTER.

No limitation of the height of buildings applies to churches, steeples,
towers, domes, cupolas, belfries or statuary not used for pm-poses of
habitation, nor to cliimneys, gas holders, coal or grain elevators, open
balustrades, skylights, ventilators, fiagstaffs, railings, weather vanes, soil
pipes, steam exhausts, signs, roof houses not exceeding 12 feet square
and 12 feet high, nor to other similar constructions such as are usually
erected above the roof line of buildings, nor to sugar refineries in District A.

By Chapter 416, Acts of 1907, the width of Rutherford avenue in the
Charlestown district, between Chapman street and the Mystic River
tracks of the Boston & Maine Railroad crossing the northerly part of
said avenue, was considered as 80 feet in respect to the height of build-
ings that might be erected on the southwesterly and westerly side of said
avenue, between the points mentioned, so as to permit the erection of
buildings to the height of 100 feet, as provided for buildings erected on
streets of the width aforesaid in District B.

By Chapter 582, Acts of 1912, the height of City Hall Annex was per-
mitted to be 133 feet above the grade of Court street, i. e., 8 feet in excess
of the limit originally legalized for District A.

By Chapter 786, Acts of 1914, the parcel of land boimded by Wasliing-
ton street, Lovering place, Harrison avenue and Asylum street was exempted
from the laws relative to the height of buildings which might be erected
thereon, except that the limit of 125 feet remained in force.

MUNICIPAL REGISTER.

THE WARDS OF BOSTON.

Wards with definite boundaries by streets were first established in 1715.
There were eight wards, three in the North End and five in the South
End, from that year until 1735, when the number was increased to twelve.
The ward lines then fixed remained substantially imchanged for seventy
years until the division made by the Selectmen in 1805. In 1822, when
the town became a city, there was a redivision on the basis of the U. S.
Census of 1820, the number still remaining twelve. Subsequent changes
of ward boundaries were made in 1838, 1850, 1865, 1875, 1895 and lastly,
that which was enacted December 28, 1914. In 1865 nine wards were
added to provide for the annexed districts, in 1875 * and 1876 * the number
was increased to 25 and in 1912 another annexation, viz.: Hyde Park,
brought the total to 26. In 1885 an attempt was made by the City Coun-
cil to make a new division of wards, 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, however, in the General Court of 1886, relative to establishing
State, senatorial and representative districts, and as to whether such dis-
tricts should be established 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
territorial 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 coun-
cils of said cities to the contrary notwithstanding. The new division 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 pro-

* 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

visions of Chapter 417 of the Acts of 1893. 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 Coimcil, but neither of the plans submitted was adopted.

Acting imder the authority of Chapter 630, Acts of 1914,* the City
Council redivided the territory of the City, establishing the boundaries
of 26 wards as below.

NEW WARD BOUNDARIES.

Throughout the following descriptions the term "intersection" of
streets, railroad locations, bridges, or the like, shall mean the intersection
of middle lines unless otherwise clearly appearing; the phrase "through"
or "to" a street, bridge, railroad location, or the like, shall mean through
or to middle lines unless otherwise clearly appearing; and where (if at all)
lines are mentioned as meeting or intersecting which do not technically
meet or intersect, it shall be intended that such lines shall be extended for
the purposes of these descriptions until they do so meet or intersect.
The words "shore line of the City of Boston" shall mean the line beyond
which building or wharfing out may for the time being be legally for-
bidden when such line has been or shall hereafter be established, and
otherwise extreme low water mark.

Notes Concerning the Orations.

All the addresses delivered by the annual orators were published, except those of 1S06,
1812 and 1852. The orations of 1792, 1793, 1798, 1799, 1804, 1807, 1808, 1809, 1811.
1816, 1821, 1823, 1850, 1854, 1858, 1859, 1876 and 1891 went through a second edition
each; those of 1863 and 1876 were published also in a more elegant form; those of 1842
and 1845 went through four editions each; that of 1857 through five. The orations from
1771 to 1788, and the large paper editions of the orations of 1863, 1876 and 1900 are in
quarto; all others in octavo.

The names given above are copied from the orations as officially published. The
Massacre orations were reprinted in a volume in 1785 by Peter Edes, and again in 1807 .
For the orators from 1771 to 1851, inclusive, see "The Hundred Boston Orators," by
James Spear Loring (Boston, 1852), and the appendix to the oration of 1889 for the full
names of the orators from 1773 to 1889, inclusive. See, also, list of "Fourth of July
Orations" in Index to the City Documents, 1834 to 1897; and " A [List of Municipal
Orators" in large paper edition of the oration of 1900.

Justices of the Police, Justices' and Municipal Courts.
The Police Court of the City of Boston was estabhshed in 1822, and at
the same time the Justices' Court for the County of Suffolk (civil business)
was established. The duties of the Justices' Court were discharged by
the Justices of the Police Court. The jurisdiction of the Justices' Court was
transferred to the Police Court for civil business June 1, 1860. In 1866
this court was succeeded by the Municipal Court of the City of Boston.

STATISTICS

OF

Population and Area.

244 municipal register.

Enumerated Population of Boston,

APRIL 1, 1915,
735,833.

(Approximate.)

According to the preliminary report of the State Bureau of Statistics,
which had charge of the State Census of 1915 (as of April 1), the popula-
tion of Boston on that date was 725,823. These figures are subject to
correction, not having been officially certified.

If found correct, this total shows an increase of 55,238, or 8.24 per
cent, in the population since April 15, 1910, when it was 670,585 (Federal
census); and of 21.91 per cent, over that of May 1, 1905, viz., 595,380,
enumerated also by the State Census.

Judging from the observed rate of increase from 1900 to 1910, it was
expected that the census of 1915 would show a total population about
24,000 larger than that reported. The falling off appears to be due to the
abnormal decrease of immigration, especially dm-ing the first eight months
of the European war. In the year ending April 1, 1915, the total number
of immigrants coming to Massachusetts was 54,795 less {%. e., — 53 per
cent) than in the year previous.

As the results in detail of the State Census of 1915 are not yet avail-
able, those pertaining to the Federal Census of 1910 are reprinted on
the pages following. The enumeration by wards and precincts is shown
on page 245; by sex and nativity on page 246; by country of birth, for
foreign-born whites, on page 247; and the change in each ward since
1905, on page 251.

Since 1875 the only considerable amount of territory annexed to Boston
is Hyde Park, whose population on April 15, 1910, was 15,507, and esti-
mated to be, at date of annexation, January 1, 1912, 15,936.

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

1910 670,585 1905-1910 75,205 12.63

Among American cities, Boston has ranked fifth in population since 1890.

Note. — -In accordance with chapter 279, Acts of 1903, amended by chapter 291, Acts of 1906, all male
residents 20 years of age or more have been listed by the police annually on May 1. This date was changed
to April 1 by chapter 440, Acts of 1909. In Boston only is the voting list prepared from this police canvass.
Elsewhere in the state the Assessors' list of polls is the basis of the voting list. The "Polls Assessed," in the
above table is the list made by the Assessing Department each year and includes all male residents 20 years
of age or more who are liable for a poll tax. The excess (9,000 to 15,000) of "Men Listed" over " Polls Assessed"
indicates the number of temporary residents, who are not liable for a poll tax.

THE NEW AND THE OLD WARDS COMPARED.
On June 7, 1915, the City Council passed an order dividing the new
wards, established on December 28, 1914, into "223 voting precincts con-
taining as near 500 voters each as the natural configm-ation of the City will
allow." The number of wards is 26, the same as before, while the precincts
number two less than before. The comparison between the number of
precincts and of voters in the new wards and the old is shown in the fol-
lowing table:

RETIREMENT LAWS AND PENSIONS.*

By Chapter 619, Acts of 1910, amended by Chapter 338, Acts of 1911,
cities and towns are authorized to establish the retirement and contributory
pension system therein set forth and applying to all municipal employees
alike. The system has not become law in Boston because the City Coun-
cil rejected it as impracticable. The classes of retired employees now
receiving pensions are the police (since 1878), firemen (since 1880), school
teachers (since 1908), judges, prison officers. Civil War veterans (since
1911) and laborers, skilled and unskilled. The largest class, i. e., the
laborers, were provided for by Chapter 413, Acts of 1911, accepted by
the City Council on October 26, 1911. Any laborer sixty years of age
or over, who has served the City for twenty-five years and is physically
incapacitated shall, at his request, be retired from service, receiving for
the remainder of his life an annual pension equal to one-haK of his pay
for his final year's service. All retirements are subject to the approval
of the Retirement Board, viz.; the Mayor, City Auditor and City Treas-
urer, who serve without compensation. Retirement is compulsory when
any laborer reaches the age of seventy.

Chapter 367, Acts of 1913, specifies that the amount of the annual
pension payable to such retired laborers, skilled laborers, mechanics, etc.,
is not to exceed $360.

Chapter 765, Acts of 1914, provides that the Retirement Board, upon
request of the Mayor and City Council, may retire any laborer employed
by the City who, owing to injury, physical incompetency, old age or
infirmity may be incapable of further performance of his work.

Veterans of the Civil War in City service, if incapacitated for active
duty, are retired, with the consent of the Mayor, at one-half pay, provided
they have been in the City's service for at least ten years. This is in
accordance with Chapter 113, Acts of 1911, which went into effect March
8, 1911, the date of its approval.

As provided by Chapter 459, Acts of 1910, veterans of the Civil War in
the service of any county if incapacitated for active duty, may be retired
by the County Commissioners, with the consent of the Governor, on half
pay, when they have been ten years in the county service, and have
reached the age of sixty-five. When necessary for the good of the service
a veteran may be retired before reaching that age.

On June 1, 1915, the total number of pensioners was 1,155, divided as
follows: Laborers, 266; teachers, 256; firemen, 241; police, 233; veterans,
145; various others, 14. Of the laborers, 229 were from the Public Works
Department.

The total of City and County pension payments in the fiscal year
1914-15 was $515,525, divided as follows: Pohce Department, $155,030;
Fire Department, $136,204; Public Works Department, $105,013; Depart-
ment of School Committee, $84,006; Suffolk County, $12,633; Park and
Recreation Department, $6,728; Health Department, $4,000; thirteen
other departments, $11,911.

332 MUNICIPAL REGISTER.

METROPOLITAN DISTRICT, OR "GREATER BOSTON."
This consists, in the most inclusive sense, of 39 municipalities, including
Boston, or 14 cities and 25 towns, all within 15 miles of the State House.
The 7 cities in the first zone, i.e ., contiguous to Boston, are these, Viz.:
Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Newton, Quincy, Revere and Somerville; the
6 cities in the second zone, not contiguous, are, Lynn, Maiden, Medford,
Melrose, Walthani and Woburn. The 7 contiguous towns are: Brookline,
Dedham, Milton, Needham, Watertown and Winthrop; the 19 other
towns are: Arlington, Belmont, Braintree, Canton, Cohasset, Dover,
Hingham, HuU, Lexington, Nahant, Saugus, Stoneham, Swampscott,
Wakefield, Wellesley, Weston, Westwood, Weymouth and Winchester.
Area of district, 412 square miles; population by census of 1910, 1,42.3,429,
or 254,641 larger than in 1900. Population, April 1, 1915, approximately
1,556,984. Total valuation of taxable property in district on April 1,
1914, $2,583,875,082, an increase of $65,339,514 over valuation in 1913.
Of said total, 59.65 per cent, was in Boston and 40.35 per cent, outside.
The Metropolitan Park District was established by chapter 407, Acts of
1893, and includes all the cities and towns except Lexington. It is managed
by a State Board of five commissioners. The Metropohtan Water District,
established by chapter 488, Acts of 1895, includes 10 cities and 9 towns,
covering an area of 170 square miles. The Metropohtan Sewerage Dis-
trict, estabhshed by chapter 439, Acts of 1889, consisting of the North
System and South System, includes 17 cities and towns in the former
system and 8 in the latter, covering an area of 216 square miles. The last
two districts are managed by a single State board of three commissioners.
The Charles River Basin District, established by chapter 465, Acts of 1903,
includes all the cities and towns except Cohasset and Lexington and is
in charge of the Metropohtan Park Commission. The total gross Metro-
politan debt for water, parks, sewers and Charles River Basin improve-
ments on July 1, 1914, was $74,721,912; sinking funds, $18,008,801;
net debt, $56,713,111, or $1,338,706 less than in 1913. The division of
this net debt was: Water supply, $30,996,997; sewers, $13,056,276;
parks, $8,916,120; Charles River Basin, $3,743,718. Of 1914 tax rates
the highest among the towns was that of Saugus ($25.40), the lowest was
Dover's ($5.50). No city had as low a tax rate as Boston's ($17.50), the
next in rank being Waltham's ($18). The highest among the cities w^as
Woburn's ($26). Mean tax rate of the 12 cities (Revere not included) in
the district outside Boston, $21.48. There were in the district, in 1913,
3,584 manufacturing establishments (newspaper and periodical concerns,
etc., omitted), with 172,594 employees; value of product, $560,390,104;
capital invested, $362,458,828; total wages paid, $107,031,822. If the
newspaper and periodical estabhshments were included, the total output
of manufactures during 1913 would approximate $585,000,000, Boston's
share being about 46 per cent.

Estimated population in 1910 within 25 miles of and including Boston,
2,036,020; within 50 miles, 3,470,587.
