DIEDATLOSANCELES YESTERDAY SAD NEWS OF THE DEATH OF EDWARD H. UTZINOER REACHED ASTORIA YESTER DAY AFTERNOON. The vcrv sad news reached this city yesterday, from Los Angeles, an nouncing the death at the Good Sa maritan hosnital there at a little past 8 o'clock yesterday morning, of Ed ward II. Utzinger, the youngest ton of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Utzinger; the immediate cause of his death being a gladular affection of the throat and lungs. He was but 22 years of age. Some eight weeks ago the young man went to Southern California, ac companied by bis sister, Miss Marie Utzinger, in .the hope the milder climatic influences there might react favorably upon his malady, and for some time was quite encouraged, but time and the mutability of the ail ment veered to hope disappointment most keen. Mis sister Miss Marie, and his brother Albert, of Seattle, were with hint, the latter having gone Anain (mm the Sound citv some 10 days ago. Ud to one year ago this well known and hiKhly respected young citizen of Astoria, had been steadily employed at the Astoria Iron Works as a pat tern maker, since the days of his apprenticeship, and was accounted one of the most promising employes in that bin: establishment Socially he was held in high esteem all over the citv and had he lived would, it is conceded on all sides, have made a cenuine and lasting mark as a sue cessful and honored citizen. He was not a native of Astoria, but came here with his parents from Minnesota, in his babyhood; but he has become completely identified with the city and cherished it as his own home. The brother and sister will arrive in Astoria on Saturday next, either on the noon or night express, and by Sunday morning the funeral arrange gements will have been completed and announced. He was a member of Court Astoria No. 8, Foresters of America, and this fine fraternity will take part and place in the ceremonies incident to his burial. J Mr. and Mrs. Utzinger have the deep sympathy of a host of friends in this city and county, where their son was known only to be respected and loved for many excellent qualities.
