I herewith call to the attention of the board, the congested condition of the patrolmen’s quarters which we have outgrown, more room must be provided, in order to properly accomi- modate the officers we now have, and for future increase of the department. During the past year, a shooting gallery has been installed in the base- ment of headquarters building, and the department has been equipped with Colt's 32 Cal. automatic revol- vers, and in order that the officers may become familiar with their use, and improve in markmanship, revol- ver practice has been arranged whereby each officer is required to re- port for instructions and shooting twice each month. Much interest is being taken, and improvement shown along this line. The following tablulater will show the various lines of that have been accomplished. Offenses For Which Arrests Are Made.
