REDLANDs, CAL, August 11.-Several
thousand inches of water are now pour
ing through State and Water streets and
Citrus avenue in this city. The water
came from a cloudburst in the hills back
of Redlands. The Bear Valley Irrigat-
ing company's pipes, canals and reser-
voirs are injured, the damage is slight.
SAN BERNARDINo, Cal, August H.
This afternoon about O'Clock storm
gathered in the mountains northeast OF
lsShis city and foated this way. The
storm, accompanied by heavy thunder
and lightning, struck this city about 4
O'Clock and it rained heavily. TIE
stormcloud foated back to the east again
and the center of the storm appeared to
hang over the valley to the north of Red
lands, until it's entire force was spent.
Half an inch or more of rain fell in this
city, but little fell west of here. One
barn was struck by lightning in High
lands. and burned; two horses were
killed. The motor line between here
and Redlands was washed out.
At Redlands and east of that city the
rainfall became cloudburst. At Graf
ton the flood came down Mill creek,
through Redlands, and flowed for hours
through the entire city, two feet deep in
many of the streets, flooding all the
business houses and washing away
some houses situated along the creek.
The food struck Redlands at o'clock
| So far as known no reservoir has
| broken. The flood was caused
by heavy cloudburst. The water
in the Sloan Hotel, was one foot deep.
In front of the First National bank, at
the motor depot, the water was three
feet deep. The men at work in the
Citrograph Office were carried out on
horseback. The storm was heaviest at
Grafton, three miles east of Redlands.
Mill creek zanja, which is lined with
alder trees the entire length from Graf
ton to Redlands, is scene of devasta-
tion. The Barton tract, west of Red.

and young orchards, is flooded badly

HAS SCIPIO SKIPPED !?
MYSTERIOUS ABSENCE FROM RED
LANDS OF EDITOR CRAIG.
His Friends Unable to Account for His
Prolonged Stay in the East-Last Heard
From at Muncie, Ind, July 29th-His
Whereabouts a Mystery Ever Since.

SAN BERNARDINo, August IL. = The
friends Of Scipio Craig OF the Redlands
Citrograph are becoming alarmed over
his prolonged absence. Early in July
he went east to attend the annual meet
ing of the National Editorial association
at st. Paul. On the Goth OF July he tele-
graphed from Muncie, Ind, his old home,
to ascertain il his business was all right.
On August 4th letter was received at
Redlands, to Craig's address, that has
been forwarded. from Muncie by the
postmaster, who wrote that Craig had
started for Redlands. Craig has not
been heard from since.
Mr.. Craig was to have been home
prior to August 8th, when he was to
take charge of the editorial excursion to
the Grand cafion of the Colorado, as he
made all arrangements for that excur-
sion, and he did not even telegraph the
other officers of the association here that
he could not return home in time to at
tend the excursion.
Last winter Mr.. Craig lost his wife, to
whom he was greatly devoted. At the
same time he had a severe attack
of grippe that seriously affected his
brain and nervous system. For weeks
he could do no mental work, and he fire.
quently complained of his head, even
up to the time of leaving for the east.
He had no financial or other troubles to
affect him. His aged father and mother
lived with him, and are much exercised
over his failure to return or inform them
of his whereabouts.
The mysterious disappearance news
business seems to be slightly overdone
in these sultry dog days by enterprising
press reporters. In Mr.. Craig's case, at
least, some cne has blundered. Since
the above dispatch was placed in type
the gratifying news has been received
by the Associated Press that Mr.. Craig
has turned up safe and sound at Red.

and Mr.. Craig will not suffer by the
gratuitous advertisement given him
