Who has not often wondered whence
the honored and fiourishing town of
Wahoo derived its name? Some little
information on the subject has been
issued to an inquiring world by a Wa
hoo paper in answer to an inquiry of
a match making company of st. Louis.
This company wrote the query mas
much as it is about to turn out a
brand of matches calculated to entrap
the western trade. Wahoo is the name
that was chosen as an inducement to
buyers. The idea in learning the deri-
walton of the word is to be sure that
the design to be made for the boxes
is not inappropriate. The Wahoo Wasp
burrows down into the history of the
state and finds that the site of Wahoo
was occupied long ago by the Otoe
Indians as part of their territory south
of the Platte. The creek that runs its
stately course through the purlieus of
the city, known as Wahoo creek, was
