JUST COME FROM HADES
MI. Grugan Says He Lost His
Shoes in the Fire.
HE HAS THE jim JAMS
IN Eccentric dab Mining Man, Who
Has Been Missing Sewers Days.
Finally Found I'm a Demented
Condition by Officer Byrne.

II. l.. Grugan, the Bannack. Idaho.
mining man who was reported missing
one day last week. relieved the anxiety
of his friends yesterday by turning up
after a fruitless search of every corner
of the city had been made. He was
picked up on South Montana street n
taken to the police station by Police
officer Byrne, and was in a pitiable
condition from the effects Of alcohol He
had the Jim jams in a bad forms. and
was literally "A wreck. When encount-
cred by Officer Byrne he was Wander
ing about barefooted and with no hat.
and the officer supposed he had found a
crazy man till he reached the station,
where Grugan was known, and learned
who he was and the cause of his condi-
ton.
Grugan is the manager of the Bon
Accord Placer company at Bannack.
About three weeks ago he came to
Butte for a time. and his escapades
were frequently mentioned in the pa
pers through his having appeared in
the police court several times. He an
nounced to the police on his arrival tina
he had come to dye the town "A deep
crimson, and said he wanted "A wide
berth. He started in by "tanking up.
and his first prank was TO break the
glass i'm a fire alarm box just to see
what was inside. For this he was ar
rested and fined in the police court. Lat
err he was arrested a couple OF times
and fined for drunkenness, and n one
occasion liberated the rest of the pris-
oners by paying their fines. He had
a mania for te~lephoning. and estaD-
lished a route Of a number of business
places where telephones were V
lent. He annoyed people to death at
these places by his constant and sense
less jabbering over the phone. He
kept up his spree for about 10 days. ana
finally came up missing. His friends
became alarmed for his safety. Sever
al of them called at police headquarters
and asked the aid of the police tn ma
him. as they feared he might have been
waylaid and robbed, or that he might
have done violence to himself. having
once before attempted suicide during a
similar spree. The police searched the
city. but found no trace OF the eccen-
trio mining mar until he was picked up
by officer Byrne yesterday.
When asked by Jailer Boyle what had
become of his shoes and stockings.
Grugan said he had been on a trip 10
hades and had lost them in the hre. Inc
man is "A wreck in mind and body from
his long dissipation. He imagines some
one wants to as~sassinate him. ana Is
constantly at war with an unseen Zoe,
He will be held at the police station TIL
his friends arrive from the south To
take him home.
