Passing of David BaIsz.

| David Balsz, Sr., is dead. Surround
 ed by his loved and loving wife and
 children he passed from earth last Sum-
 day night, peacefully and painlessly,
 dissolution following a psralytic stroke.
 David Balsz, one of the oldest of the old timers, was born in Germany sixty eight years ago. He came to Yuma
 from California in 1861. He was d
 butcher, and for time was employed
 by ''Dondy" Jaeger Louie Iaeger's
 father) and later by Jose NJ. RedondO,
 with whom, in 1872, he formed part nership in the operation of the Yuma Exchange, with big corral in connec- tion, which became a popular place of refreshment for both man and burrO, or horse, as the case might be. This was at the present location of the Arizona Saloon. David Balsz was married in 1876 to the daughter of his partner, Miss Luz Redondo. who, with a large family of children, survives him.
 He moved to Phoenix in 1880 and en- gagged in business, in the course of which and in government beef con- tracts he accumulated considerable fortune. Returning to Yuma in lS90 he opened the Yuma Cold Afr Storage market, which he owned and managed up to his death, and which is now con- tinued by his sons. He was shrewd business man, thoroughly familiar with every detail of his chosen vocation, and in his younger days was something of plunger in a speculative way, hence, though making good deal of money, fortunes wheel sometimes whirled the wrong way, and his plunges were not always profitable. In his later years he was more conservative, and laid plans carefully looking to the future welfare of his family when he shold be gone, in the building up of safe and permanent business, which his boys have been trained to continue. These plans were gradually but surely con- summated
 Personally Dave Balsz was kind hearted-one of the most hospitable of men. Naturally, everybody who knew him was his friend, and none but will miss his genial presence and regret that he could not have remained with us.
 Besides the widow, deceased leaves eight children; Mrs. John Baggiore of Phoenix: Mrs. Kate P;incraZi, Miss es Agnes and Amelia, and Joseph, Da- vid, William and Henry, of Yuma.
 The funeral took place from the Catholic church, where impressive ser~ vices were conducted by Rev. Wander maesen, at o'clock Tuesday afternoon, and was very largely attended. Those who acted as pall-bearers- oldtime friends and associates of the deceased were Captain Jack Mellen, Nj. J. Nu- gent, Captain C. V. Meeden, Althee Modesti and J. w. Darlington.

Death of Frank Thurlow.

It is with positive sorrow that the Sentinel chronicles the death of Frank Thurlow, oldest son of Justice George NJ. Thurlow, who died in Los Angeles on Monday. He had been taken to a hospital in that city, where, after an investigation, an operation for appendi- Citis was deemed necessary, and fin these columns last week was given the substance of an encouraging telegram; the operation was pronounced success ful. The Dews was a great relief to the boys father and mother and grati- flying to his many friends.
 But on Sunday last message of grave import came, changing the feel ing of gladness and relief into one of alarm. The anxious mother took the first train for Los Angeles, hoping against hope. Poignant disappoint- ment awaited her, for her son had passed away an hour before the now grfei-strieken mother reached his bed side.
 Frank Thurlow was Fl years old, a young man loved and respected by all who knew him. Yuma was his birth place and no better boy ever grew up within it's confines. Honest, manly, industrious, his friendships were only limited by the range of his wide ac- quaintance. Up to the time of his late illness Frank was in the employ of the $. P. railroad. He carried q $3,O0O policy in the New York Life Insurance Company, his father and mother being named as beneficiaries.
 Mrs. ThHrlow is expected to arrive with the body of her son on tonight's train. The funeral will take place from the family residence on Thursday, May 9, at 10 o'clock a. m., under the Yuma Aerie No. 39S, F. O. of E., de- ceased being a member of the order.
