oLD.TlMER THOUGHT TO HAVE
BEEN DROWNED IN BITTER
,., ROOT RIVER.

After searching for some trace of
him for two days. the county officials
have given up all hope OF finding Mike
Coneff. whom they now believe to have
been drowned in the Bitter Root river.
Mike Coneff IL a well-known old timer
who has worked in the lumber camps
of western Montana for q good many
years. It is thought that he was
temporarily crazy and that while IN
that condition drowned himself or fell
into the river.
On Saturday a stranger driving
across the Maclay bridge saw Coneff
standing there. Coneff stopped him
and told him he was In trouble. II
have Just killed nine men up at the
camp" he said "and they're looking
for me-" The stranger seeing Coneffs s
condition, advised him to 60 to town
and give himself mp. He offered him
a ride, but It was refused. Send
Kelley out here and I will give myself
up" Coneff said. The stranger drove
into town then and notified the sher-
ifs office. Deputy Johnson went out
after bin, but when he reached the
bridge Coneff had disappeared. The
crew at the lumber camp has been
hunting for him ever since without
success. The officers are satisfied
that Coneff either became so possessed
with the idea that he had murdered
nine men that he jumped into the
stream or that he fell In accidentally

.JAPS IN MOURNING
FOR MUTSUH|T0
LOCAL SONS OF THE FLoWERY
KINGDOM oRiEve OVER
EMPERoR's DEATH.

The death of Mutsuhito. the emperor
OF Japan. is going to have a significant
effect upon all of the great emperor's
subjects. The thousands of Japanese
ell over the world have been watching
the great fight of the mikado with
genuine interest and the sorrow
brought by the news of his death
was common. The grief In Japan Is
no sharper than In this country. for
the Japanese are not people to for
get their native land and lose interest
In 1t: welfare. Mutsuhito has ruled
his country for so long that his people
can hardly realize that ne has..died.
When he went on the throne Japan
was a barbarian nation. unknown by
the outside world and unwilling to be
known. Today she IL rapidly taking
her place among civilized nations. and
the reason for II all Is Mutsuhito.
The Japanese colony In Missoula feels
az keenly about 1t as any other. The
Japanese are all In mourning In honor
Of their dead sovereign, and they fear
the decline OF their nation. 4.
Tatsugami. a young Japanese who Is
an engineering student at the Univer-
sity OF Montana. said last night that
Ihis people were grief-stricken by the
news. "Mutsuhito is the greatest em-
peror Japan ever had" he said. NOW
that he Is dead anything may happen.
There are socialistic and revolutionary
people in the Kingdom. hut they have
never dared to do much for fear OF
Mutsuhito. Now that he Is dead
