WHERE IS DESCAMP?
He MYsTERIoUSLY DISAPPEARED
ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO.
IS A TRAVELLING SALESMAN
Louis T. Jacques Son of the Head Of
the Firm Des Camp -.epre sented,
4. b. Searched Butte for the
Missing Man.

What has become of c. F. Descamp of
Detroit. travelling salesman for the
Jacques tea house of Chicago?
He has been missing since the 9Th of
this month and although strenuous eff
forts have been made to locate him
they have so far been without avail.
Mr.. Descamp was in Butte the early
part of the month and remained about
six days. He registered at the Finlen
hotel October 80 and the books of the
hotel show that he left there Novem-
Der 5.
1t is supposed that from this city he
went to Helena, as it is understood that
the firm for which he is travelling re-
ceived a letter from him postmarked
Helena and dated November s. Since
then all trace of him has been lost.
His Eastern relatives and friends are
greatly worried over his disappearance.
kilograms of inquiry have been sent by
them to all parts of the West, but no
| encouraging responses have been made.
Now Tracing Him.
| Louis T. Jacques, son of the head
of the jacques tea house, is now tracing
Descamp.
He arrived in Butte on the 14th and
! remained until yesterday looking for the
missing man. Last night he started for
Helena, where he will continued the
search, as that was the last place in
which Descamp was heard of by the
! firm.
Young Jacques has so far traced him
| through all of the towns in which he
! stopped, but spent more time in Butte
! than in any other place.
He came from Salt Lake to this city
and is working as quietly as possible.
| Mr.. Descamp is described as a man of
| .iovial disposition. He is short and stout.
! With O smooth-shaven face and is about
2G years old. He is known as a good
| salesman and as steady as a clock.
| When he disappeared he had littla
| money. 1t is feared that he has met
with foul play.
His Accounts Straight
| In speaking of the matter, Mr.. Jacques
said:
Il do not care to say much about the
| matter, as we do not want any pub
| lefty. Descamp's accounts with the
house are perfectly straight and he had
no reason to intentionally absent HIM
| self.
| From the time he wrote the firm
| from Helena and enclosed the ordets he
! lad taken there, all trace OF MIN has
been lost ... CT ..
1T is possible that he is sick and has
J been taken to some hospital or sani
| tariunl.
I'VE have used the wires freely in an
| effort to locate him and are now nSaged

reason of the fact that he, so the paint
