delightfully located in a fertile agricultural district, and surrounded by three lakes, known as Pike, Centre and Eagle lakes, which give it the very appropriate name of " Lake City." These lakes are amply pro- vided with boats for fishing, rowing and yachting purposes, and are stocked with fish, thus making Warsaw a delightful summer resort. It has excellent county buildings, substantial business blocks, wide streets beautifully lined with shade trees and lighted by gas, and supports two banks, three weekly newspapers-Northern Indi- anian (Republican), National Union (Demo- cratic) and the Republican -- and three hotels, of which the Wright House stands at the head, and is in every way first- class. There are in the place five churches-Methodist, Baptist, Presbyte- rian, Catholic and Christian-graded schools, and a public library containing 500 volumes. Its manufactured articles are numerous and extensive, and include brick, lumber, sash, doors and blinds, cooperage, furniture, flour, handles, plows, wagons, wood stock and cast-iron machinery. The American and Adams Express and Western Union Telegraph companies have offices here. John N. Runyan, postmaster.
