ASSISTANT CASHIER.
Mr. Hollister Accepts a Position with the Yellowstone National Bank.
Eugene H. Hollister, for a long time connected with the First National bank of this city, and one of our most esteemed young men, says the Pawnee City (Neb.) Press, left yesterday for Billings, Montana, where he assumes the position of assistant cashier and bookkeeper in the Yellowstone National bank of that place. The Press can heartily recommend Mr. Hollister as an efficient bank accountant and reliable gentleman. He long occupied an important position in this city with the First National and gave entire satisfaction to his employers and the general public. “Gene has grown from boyhood to manhood in Pawnee and has always borne an exemplary character in social and business circles. The people of our city generally regret the departure of Mr. Hollister and his most estimable wife, but all extend them best wishes for the utmost good fortune in their new home, where we know they will be appreciated. Mrs. Hollister will remain here for a few weeks, when she will join her husband in their new home.

FIFTEEN ENTER CHESS TOURNEY
INTERESTING CONTEST OPENS AT THE BILLINGS CLUB.
IS HANDICAP MATCH
Complimentary to E. H. Hollister, Who is to Leave for Idaho Soon—Pool Tournament Nearing a Close, Sylvester in the Lead.
From Saturday's Daily.
One of the most interesting contests pulled off at the Billings club in some time is the chess tourney, now in progress at the rooms of that popular social institution.
The tourney is the nature of a compliment to E. H. Hollister, cashier of the Yellowstone National bank of this city, who has resigned his position to assume similar duties in one of the banks at Idaho Falls. Mr. Hollister has long been an ardent admirer of the game and is a good player. He has participated in several local matches, and those whom he has met across the board from time to time thought it would be a nice thing to arrange for a tourney just prior to his departure for the Idaho city.
Are Chess Enthusiasts.
Fifteen well known chess enthusiasts of the city have entered the contest, including E. H. Hollister, J. R. Goss, R. H. Shepard, E. Heyde, J. B. Herford, E. A. Gerhart, R. E. Noyes, M. E. Reed, R. H. Kennedy, Joseph Zimmerman, H. M. Brayton, E. B. Camp, L. C. Babcock, J. T. Graham and Charles Spear.
The players are divided into four classes, handicap rules being in force, and every man believes he has an even show to win the contest. A number of games will be played each day until the close of the series.

Eugene Herbert Hollister passed away at his home at Idaho Falls, Idaho, April 15, 1923, at the age of 54. He was taken ill about a year ago and went to California in the hope that his health would be improved. He returned to Idaho Falls in December.
Mr. Hollister was born at Dixon, Ill., and came to Pawnee City with his parents and grew to manhood here. He took a prominent part in the civic affairs of our town and for a number of years was one of our prominent bankers. While living here he was married to Miss Carrie Lipp, who, with three sons, Raymond, Richard and Thomas, and a brother, Dr. T. C. Hollister, and a sister, Mrs. Jessie Jackson, survive him.
He went from here to Billings, Mont., as cashier of the Yellowstone bank. After several years at Billings he went to Idaho Falls, where he made his home for the past 16 years. He was one of the founders of the Farmers and Merchants bank of Idaho Falls and the first cashier of that institution. One retiring from the bank he became the active manager of the Idaho Falls Development company, which position he held at the time of his death. He was a member of the Masonic and Elk lodges, chairman of the finance committee of the city council and president of the Idaho Falls Rotary club. He took an active interest in all civic activities and was held in the highest esteem and respect by his business associates and all who came in contact with him.
Funeral services were held at his home in Idaho Falls Thursday, April 19, conducted by Rev. Mr. Winning of the Methodist church, with the Masonic burial ritual at the grave in Rose Hill cemetery.
Representatives of the organizations of which Mr. Hollister was a member acted as pallbearers, M. B. Yeaman of the Rotary club, W. A. Baker of the Masons, M. B. Bundlie of the Elks, H. H. Payne of the Eastern Star, E. R. Underhill of the city council, and J. L. Milner, his business associate.
The sympathy of the many friends here is extended to Mrs. Hollister and family and other sorrowing relatives.
E. H. Hollister's Mother-In-Law also appears directly following,
Mrs. R. Lipp
Mrs. R. Lipp died at her home in Pawnee City Thursday afternoon, after a lingering illness. Although it was known for some time that she could not recover from her sickness, the announcement of her death cast a shadow of sorrow over the entire community. Mrs. Lipp had been a resident of this city for many years. She was loved by her neighbors and friends who knew her best and highly respected by all her acquaintances for her kindly manner and strong Christian character.
