Cedar Rapids, Ia., Jan 27--Lucius Rose, forty five years old, a prominent farmer residing near Olin, was instantly killed late Saturday afternoon when a bobsled in which he was riding was struck by a Milwaukee passenger train No. 26 east bound. Rose had been in Olin and was returning to his home. He drove onto the crossing a short distance east of Olin deport, directly in front of the train. His body was thrown over one hundred feet by the collision, the sled shattered and the team of horses so badly injured that they had to be killed.
