Prominent Man Dies Suddenly.

Isaac W. Rose, prominent at
torney, died suddenly at his home
on Wells hill just west of town,
at 1890 a. m. Monday, April 16,
1917.
Mr.. Rose had been over to town
earlier in the forenoon and was
apparently in as good health as
usual. A number of local people
saw and talked to him and he
seemed unusually cheerful.
He went home about the middle
Of the forenoon with the an
nolnced intention of going fish
ing. When found on his rear
porch his fishing tackle was lying
about him.
Mr.. Rose came to West Liberty
from Maytown more than twenty
years ago. He was a prominent
local attorney and was twice
elected County Attorney of this
county. Few men in the county
were better known or better
liked than l. w. Rose. The
} cause Of his death is supposed to
have been either paralysis or
heart failure superinduced by
paralysis, he having previously
suffered two paralytic strokes.
M. Rose had been twice mar
ried. His first wife was Miss
Pieratt, and his second wife was
Miss Annie Wells, daughter of
the late K. B. Wells, of near
town.
He is survived by his widow

"IJNDYING FLAME"
TREATS MYSTERY

In "Thc TndyinE Flame Nine.
petrova's first IaSky- Paramount pic
ture, one of the strangest facts of hui
man experience forms the basis for
the whole weird story. This is tn"
very common sensation of having been
in n place before or having performed
exactly the same actions in relation to
the same persons, whom perhaps one
has never seen before. Who is there
who has not experienced this battling
sensation?
In 1.-THE Tndyng Flame we have a
charming young English girl expert
encing this sensation and it puzzles
her greatly until one day a happy ac-
cident brings mystic scarab into her
possession from the hands of gypsy
who tells her that when the other half
shall be found she will know that her
destiny is at last fulfilled.
The fascinating manner in which the
other half Of the mystic charm comes
into her life and the happiness that
follows may be seen at the Empress
theater where THE Cndyine Flame,
starring Madame Petrova, will be the
attraction.
