Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: NAN-NEW
NEWARK , a city and the county-seat of Licking county,
Ohio
 , U.S.A., at the confluence of three forks of the Licking river, on the
Ohio
  Canal, and 33 M. E. by N. of Columbus. Pop. (1890) 14,270; (1900) 18,157, of whom 1342 were foreign-born and 300 were negroes; (1910 census) 25,,404. Newark is served by the
Baltimore
  & Ohio, and the Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Chicago & St Louis railways, and by inter-urban electric lines. It lies on a level plain, but is surrounded by hills. Along two of the forks of the Licking are some of the most extensive earthworks of the " mound builders "; they occupy about 3 sq. m., and have a
great
  variety of forms: parallel walls, circles, semicircles, a parallelogram, an octagon, &c. About so m. S.W. and connected with Newark by electric line is Buckeye Lake, an artificial
body
  of water about 8 m. long and 1 M. wide, frequented as a summer resort. Among the city's attractive features are Idlewilde Park and a beautiful auditorium, built
as a memorial to the soldiers and sailors of the Civil War. Newark is the trade centre of an agricultural region, which also abounds in natural gas and coal; natural gas is piped as far as Cincinnati. The city has electric car and steam car shops and various manufactures, including stoves and furnaces (the most important), bottles, table glass-
ware
 , cigars, rope halters, machine furniture and bent
wood
 . The total factory product in 1905 was valued at $5,612,587, an increase of 94.9% over that in 1900. Newark was laid out about 18o1 and was incorporated in 1813.
For an account of the earthworks see Gerard Fowke, Archaeological History of Ohio (Columbus, 1902).
