PEARANCE CLEARED UP.
DROWNED IN THE RATTLESNAKE
May Have Been Insane When He Wan

His Death, Two Weeks Ago-In-

Body Was Buried Without Ceremony
Especial to Inter Mountain

especial to Inter MOuntain.)
Missoula, June 10.-Late Sunday after
noon boys playing along Rattlesnake
creek, near the city, discovered in an
eddy of the steam the dead body of a
man. Investigation showed them to be
the remains of William p. Lockwood,
until two weeks ago an inmate of the
county poor house, situated in that
locality, and from which he mysteriousy
zdisappeared in the middle Of the night
Lockwood was committed to the poor
house from Missoula only few days
before he disappeared. He was about
IS years old. but dissipation and a riot
GUS life for some years past had brought
on the appearance of being much older.
His manner of living was by swampins
out saloons and DOING errands for resi-
dents of the tenderloin, from which
precarious existence was eked out
When committed he was foul with dis
ease and filth, and it is imagined that
his death was caused by falling into the
creek while attempting to make his way
back to the city, or that while tenn
porarily insane by being kept from drink
he suicided.
The remains were buried in the county
burial plot this morning, Coroner Hayes
deeming an inquest unnecessary.
