Death of William Nowlan.

VIM. Nowlan, an old Montana pros
pector, banker and miner, died at the
Bismarck and Won Arnim mine, Old the
Boulder, last Saturday. The Iadepen-
dent of Sunday says: Yesterday morn
ing the deceased started from Helena to
visit the above mine, III which he was
principal owner, in apparent good health.
From The few particulars received it
would seem that he had driven with his
team as far as it was practicable, and in
walking the rest Of the distance exhaust
ed himself to such a degree that he ex-
pired almost instantly upon reaching
the cabin of the men who were working
on the mine. He had an attack of con-
gestion Of the brain some time ago, and
in all probability this was the cause Of
his death.n
