PAUL $. KLECKVER
 DIES AT ACE IF 32

Paul s. Kleckner. foreman of the stereotyping. department of The Re publican, died last evening at o'clock at Park View sanitarium of pneumo- mia, following a severe attack of in- fluenza.
 He is survived by a wife and two small children, a boy of four and a girl of six years. The casket accompanied by the wife. will be sent to Los An geles, where the mother lives and where the funeral services under the auspices of the Stereotoypers' Union of that city will be held.
 The death of Paul K1eckner comes as a shock to his many friends and especially to his fellow employees of The Republican, where only a few weeks ago he was at his post of duty. Of strong constitution, an attack of influenza weakened and undermined his health and he gradually went down hill. His fellow workers noticed his decline and urged him to stop work and rest, but he kept on until the final illness.
 He was 32 years of age. During his entire residence in Phoenix of three years he was with The Republican.
