YOUNG MAN KILLED
in AUTO ACCIDENT
Sydney Rose, Aged ~ of Racine, Wis
Loses Life When Auto Turns over
near Room siding Monday A. M.

Yhe auto pleasure tour of two young
men from Racine, Wisconsin, came to
sad end Monday morning, when
their auto new Dodge touring car,
skidded and rolled over on road four
miles south of Warren, near Roam sid
ing, causing the death Of one Of the
young men, Sydney G.. Rose, who was
at the wheel. At the end Of the
gravelled road two and one-half miles
out they came onto the clay road
which was slippery from the preced-
ing nights rain. Noticing this, Mar
vim l.. Lassen, the companion Of Rose,
remarked that the road appeared soft,
whereupon the driver began to slow
down his speed of about 30 miles an
hour, when all Of a sudden the car
skidded and turned turtle, throwing
Mr.. Rose clear out of the car and
then rolled onto him in the ditch,
pinning his head and upper part of
the body under the body of the car.
Mr.. Lassen, the other young man, was
r3t injured at all and he crawled
from his seat through the broken
windshield and endeayored though In
vain to lift the car SO as to release
his companion, who was grooming in
his precarious position. Omer Thomas,
Frank Rays and Mr.. Heller, farmers
of the vicinity had noticed the car
turn turtle and hurried to the scene
as quickly as possible With their
aid the car was lifted sufficiently to
release Rose, but by this time his
soul had passed on to that '.undis-
covered country, from whose borne no
traveller returns" What up to this
time had been pleasure trip to the
fine stalwart and manly young men,
was changed to one of signs and
mourning for one of them because Of
the loss Of his companion. With a
sad heart Mr.. Lassen, whose age is
81 years, returned to Warren with
the lifeless body Of his good friend.
Sydney Rose was the only child of
his parents, who are prominent and
well-to-do people Of Racine, and one
can well imagine how shocked and
isaddened they must have been to
learn of their sons untimely death.
The body of Rose was prepared for
burial at Skalman's undertaking par
lors and shipped to his home in Wis
consin on the evening flyer the same
day the accident had occurred.
The two young men had started out
last week OH nm auto "trip through
Wisconsin and Minnesota. They pass
ed through Warren Saturday on their
way to Winnipeg to see that city.
Saturday night they stopped In a
little French village this side of Win
nipeg and motored into the city Sun
day morning They left Winnipeg
about three O'clock Sunday afternoon
had supper at Argyle and then came
on to Warren, where they arrived
about ten O'clock and stopped ovel
night at Hotel Warren. In the morn
ing at 745 they resumed their jour
ney, but did not get far until the sad
accident happened. 1t was their in
tention to hasten back to Wisconsin
and enjoy a few days hunting in thu
. vicinity of Eagle River, before return
ing to their home at Racine. Blu
human plans do not always succeed
