Calvin Hosler, 52 years of age, and until four months ago manager of the local store of the Union Pacific Tea company, died at 10:15 o'clock Thursday night at the family home, 439 East Taber street. Death was due to pneumonia and it followed a brief illness, though Mr. Hosler had been in failing health for some months and for that reason has been compelled to relinquish work.

For many years he was employed on the city street railway lines as transfer agent at Main and Calhoun streets, his service there dating from the old days of the horse cars in Fort Wayne, and he was widely and favorably known.

Mr. Hosler was a member of Sol D. Bayless lodge of Masons and of Mechecannochqua tribe, Improved Order of Red Men. Besides the widow he is survived by one son, Jesse Hosler and by one brother and four sisters - Edward Hosler, Muskegon Mich.; Mrs. William Buss, Pontiac, Mich.; Mrs. George Everette, Indianapolis, and Mrs. Roland Walker, Fort Wayne.

Funeral services Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence in charge of the Masons, with the Red Men in charge at the grave; interment at Leo cemetery.
