WABASH. The county seat of Wabash county, is situated on the Wa- bash river, in a very rich agricultural district. The bottom lands of the Wabash, Mississinewa, Salamonic and Eel rivers, all of which flow through the county, are noted for their fertility. The city is incor- porated, and has a population of 4,500, lo- cated at crossing of W. St. L. & P. and C. W. & M. Rys. The latter road has erected extensive machine shops here. It is 90 miles northeast of Indianapolis, and 43 southwest of Ft. Wayne. A good quality of building stone is found surrounding the city-in fact, the place is sometimes called
Rock City. The business houses are most- ly built of that material, and are very sub- stantial. The streets are well improved, have miles of flag-stone sidewalk, and are beautifully lined with shade trees.
The city is practically out of debt, and evidences of thrift and enterprise are every- where visible, it being famous as the first place where the experiment was made of lighting a city by electric light, and a large majority of her citizens consider it a great success.
