The many new families that have recently become residents here on the reclaimed lands are largely the cause of this unexpected activity.

She was riding her new wheel on Washington street when John Ball, who was driving the NoWel’s House buss, ran into her in some unaccounted way, throwing Miss Hoyes to the pavement one wheel of the wagon passing over her, rendering her unconcious for some time.

An Apology.

The editor of the Pilot desires to ask his readers to overlook the shortcomings of the paper for another week. He has been very busy preparing for the new press and engine which will be ready for use in a few days.when he will endeavor to improve the paper little by little each week until it shall be the equal of any country paper printed in America. It takes time, hard work, ihe help of friends, and it takes money to do it; apd while speaking of money, if any of our well wishers could spare a dollar now, it would be of the greatest value to us in meeting the exceedingly heavy expenses of the new’ machinery.

Obituary.

From the Medaryville Advertiser. Died—in this town, on Thursday morning, March 28, 1895, shortly after 7 o’clock, Mrs. Nancy P. Nichples, at the age of 78 years, after a lingering illness of about three months. Mrs. Nicholes was born in Brown county, Ohio, on March 24, 1817. Her family name was Nancy P. Graham. She was married to Mr. Wm. B. Nicholes in that state and county on Sept. 5, 1837. The following month the then young couple moved to Miami county, Ind., and two years later to Rensselaer in Jasper Co. In the fall of 1855 they moved to this county, where they have lived ever since and which makes them two of the oldest settlers in Pulaski county. There were nine children born to this union, of which four,Elston, Walter, Frank and Samuel, are still living. Her husband, Wm. B. Nicholes, also survives her. Although of late her death was almost daily expected, the final demise of Mrs. Nicholes throws a gloom over this whole community, as she was a general favorite among both old and young. She was a true, loving wife, an affectionate care-taking, conscientous mother and an ever ready, sympathizing friend and neighbor. Her remains will find their last resting place in the Medaryville cemetery and the funeral will take place this morning at 11 o’clock, Rev. John Sebring preaching the funeral sermon.

Postal Savings Banks

The New Bank Opened.

The Commercial State Bank opened its doors for business Tuesday morning in the nicely equipped quarters just vacated by the liquidating Citizens’ Bank, whose depositors have all been assured by the new corporation. Its present appurtenances are indeed excellent and compare favorably with those of similar institutions in this county. A feature of special interest is their safe deposit boxes, in which patrons may store valuable papers and hold the keys thereto. These boxes are located in their absolute fire proof vaults. This bank is organized under the laws of the state of Indiana and is furnished with every facility for the transportation of a general discount, deposit and exchange business, including the drawing of drafts payable in all the principal cities of America and Europe. Among the stockholders the following names are prominent as principal shareholders: Hon. E. P. Hammond, Addison Parkinson, James T. Randle, Hon. Simon P. Thompson, Hon. Geo. H. Brown Sr., Emmet L. Hollingsworth, John M. Wasson. George K. Hollingsworth and George E. Murray. Such a presentation of well known names, all, practically, of this city, men who have spent their lives here, and not only nade their financial success lere by their own good business methods, but earned the honorable reputation which is accorded each one of them without question; such names, representing as they do, wealth of many hundred thousands of dollars, is the oest commendation the new t ank can have in asking a share of the public’s favors. Those in actual charge of the business are experienced, obliging, courteous, and it is certain that a prosperous future is opening to them. The cashier, Mr. E. L. Hollingsworth, has for several years oeen connected with the bank of A. McCoy & Co. in a like capacity. where he won many warm I riends through their business relations, and he will be pleased o see them again in his new place, where they may be assured ne will extend to them every possible service.
