The winter,a sle,nhinn.

The winters sleighing was good, and we had
it without break, from Dec. 10th, to March
18th, both Sundays included. with the latter
date the sleighing began to be mixed with
wheels, and grew rapidly worse. We did see
sleigh at the first Of last week, but the reason
of its appearance was rather obscure. About
four inches Of snow fell tho night before
Thanksgiving, Nov. 30th. and some seighs
were out that day, and there was more snow
Dec I'd, Sd and 9th, but all this event away
with a rain Dec. 9Th, so that the unadulterated
sleghing was, as above just fourteen weeks.

presiding The following reports were sub
mitted.
LIBRARIANS REPORT.
To the Directors of Portland Public Library:
Gentlemen-According to the usual custom,
herewith submit the annual report of the Ii
brarian, for the year ending March 81, 1888.
The library has circulated for home use, the
past year, 43, 45S volumes and we have record
ed 1870 volumes which have been use in the
library rooms; 7 $50 books have been covered
and 672 repaired in the library 5l1 books and
periodicals have been sent 70 the binder for
binding and repairs GAL books have been pur-
chased; los books, 1872 pamphlets and three
maps have been donated; eighty-two books
have been added by binding periodicals.
The library has disposed of IL books aud 80
pamphlets, and has received books and 2S
pamphlets by exchange with other libraries.
Three books have been lost, and five have
been discarded or worn out, SO there are now
in the library Is, 4l9 volumes.
The library has purchased two paintings
and one plaster cast, while kind friends have
remembered us by the gift of two casts of
prominent men, and have purchased by sub
scription, and placed in the library as gift
large portrait OF the poet Longfellow.
Among some of the most prominent donors
70 the library perhaps / should mention Hon.
I. b. Reed, through whom the library has re-
ceived some of its most valuable public docu-
ments. Mrs. G. A. Lord has given file of inn
portant local papers well bound, for the years
1922 to 1873. Mr.. Stephen Berry has furnished
many pamphlets of local and historical matter
and MIR. Brown has given good collection of di-
retories of important and neighboring towns
and cities. Many others have very kindly fur
nished us with articles useful in a library but
which cannot enumerate here.
The finding lists have been completed, ap-
proved by the committee and most Of them re-
ceived at the library.
Books are now being delivered for home use
to pa life members, 293 subscribers. 124 school
teachers, 43 city officials, and Is policemen.
Visitors to the reading room continue to in
crease and could the library have a room set
apart for small boys | think its usefulness
could be very much enhanced.
The need of more room for storage of books
is more apparent each year, and II something
could be done to relieve this pressure it would
be great help toward the proper care of the
books, expeditions delivery to those calling
for them and the general appearance Of the
library.
Miss A A. Means, the first library assistant,
resigned her position last September, a place
she held very satisfactorily for seven years.
Miss A. III. Means, the second assistant was
promoted TO her place, and Miss A. Kurdish,
who had been serving as spare hand, took the
place of second assistant So that neither of
the regular clerks at this time is without some
knowledge OF library work.
The appended statistics compare the year

REMARKS OF MAYOR pEERINa

The Mayor said he had called the conyen-
ton for the purpose OF calling attention--as re-
CARDS the salary bill--to the fact that the pub
lie business was being greatly delayed. The
paper representing the lower board had made
a statement which was malicious libel on the
Mayor. The charge made in that paper
against the Mayor distinctly stated that con-
tract had been made between the Mayor and
what the paper called "his henchmen" term
of opprobrium no paper had a right to apply to
a public servant The Mayor said further no
member of the police, from the Marshal down
had ever said salary to him In any manner.
He wished 10 say no such thing had ever been
said to him by any man of them: Ii they had
done 50 he should have said ''your petition will
be presented In due form" Now this delay
said he is not courtesy to your committee. The
school committee salary bill is almost as large,
and that salary bill pays larger salaries, In
proportion, than this salary bill to any city
Official There is no bubble in the school COM
mittee about such matters. Suppose your
committee on enlarging Bracket street, at the
| next meeting report In favor Of doing so you
must accept that report, The Mayor said he

A,,ec6ote of Peter Conner.

We recall little incident We observed a
few years ago. A workman in Cooper in
stitute, having occasion to ascend ladder
to do some repairing in one of the public
rooms. called to an old man whom he hap
pened to see standing near by, watching
him: Here, old fellow, hold the ladder
for me, won't your" The "old fellow"
started forward and held the ladder for the
workman, while he climbed up and did his
work That unpretentious old man was
Peter Cooper. It was Peter Cooper
through and through and all over: 1t was
ambition enough for him to hold the lad
der for other people. He might not climb
himself; he remembered how hard the
climbing had been for him when he tried
TO study and learn and fit himself for his
sphere of usefulness and service, and he
made up his mind many, many years ago
that ne would make it easier for other
people to climb. His institute was lad
der; and he stood by itday after day, hold
ing it that other people, young men and
young women, might climb.
