Using a copy of the 1897
Police Ledger, make a chart showing number of arrests per day
for this week. Use a web site like
http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/ to generate a
calendar for the year 1897, and add days of the week to your
chart. Which days had the most arrests?
Make a list of the kinds of
charges. What were people most frequently arrested for?
Make a bar graft showing how
many arrests each officer made. Which officer made the most
arrests? Who made the least?
Could you put any of this
information into a pie chart? How would you do it?
