Surgeon John w. Branham

Surgeon John w. Branham, the first
victim Of the fever at Brunswick, was a
native Georgian. He was born in Walker
county twenty-four years ago, and was
graduated in medicine at the Baltimore
college of physicians and surgeons five
years ago. Soon after his graduation he
entered the marine hospital service and
quickly rose to the rank of assistant sur
geon. He was first in the quarantine
service at Baltimore and later at New
York, whence he was ordered to Bruins
wick
Surgeon Branham's life was, unfortu-
nately, too short for him to have made
more than local reputation, though
those who knew him are confident that
but for his mtimely taking-off he would
have won for himself enduring and
enviable distinction in the service of
humanity. In college Surgeon Branham
was always an honor man, and in his
profession he showed such breadth of
comprehension and diligence in the study
OF his subjects that it was regarded by
his intimates as only question of time
when he would be recognized as an
authority
During the time of his illness Surgeon
Branham became one of the best known
men in Georgia. At first, it is probable,
the general interest in him was almost
wholly selfish, but when, day after day,
reports of his remarkable and courageous
battle against death were read, a warmer
feeling took the place OF the selfish inter
est. And when it was learned that he
had young wife and baby, the public
heart went out to the trio. Poor fell
low said Savannah gentleman the
morning his death was announced a
feel a personal bereavement in his taking
OFF although l never saw him in my life y
And it is safe to say that similar senti-
ments We're felt by thousands when they
read the notice of the young mans death
Surgeon Branham, according to the es
! innate Of his friends, was man above
/ the average physically, morally and men
! tally. He was a soldier in the army OF
science, and fell before an ambushed foe.

The touches of her hands and the delight

Yesterdays storm has cleared the
streets of dust, and the horticulturists
and grain growers of fears. The crowds
which gathered at the zanja crossings to
watch the effect of the big bitches just
completed saw the torrents rage through
them, heard the boulders laundering
along the bottoms, and decided that the
work has been wisely and thoroughly
done. Although the water was sufficient
in quantity to have overfowed the old
channel, the new ditch could have car
ried four times the amount. A few weak
places have been detected, but residents
have learned that Redlands has no
longer cause to fear from floods. The
damage caused is as follows: Sixty
feet of the Brookside avenue ditch
washed out; Citrus avenue rendered
impossible by the carrying away of the
earth from around the bridge; several
hundred feet of the Little Reservoir
cafion arroyo ditch gone; the motor
train delavad three hours on the trim
from San Bernardino; the angle at the
junction of the zanja with the main
ditch crumblsd down. Two thousand
dollars covers the loss, and most of that
is due to the fact that the work was not
completed, and unprotected ends offered
little resistance. As against this baga-
telle the residenter smiles broadly, the
grain sprouts apace, trees put forth
their good fruits, the Bear valley dam
lacks but six feet of being full to the
brim, the floods clap their hands, the
hills are joyful together, and Redlands is
three-time winner.

A kidnapping of little Mexican girl,
about IL years old, occurred Sunday
evening. The girl was walking on lower
Main street, near the arroyo, with her
baby brother, when a carriage with two
Americana drove up rapidly. One of
the two men in the buggy jumped out,
seized her and forced her into the bug
gy. They then drove rapidly toward
the railroad, the girl screaming and
fainting. At house beyond the ira ok
they stopped for water and then drove
rapidly on. Nothing has been learned
OF the girl since.
The Antelope mill had an unexpected
experience in the giving out of its water
supply. Water had been taken from
the we'll preceding the starting of the
mill and was apparently there in all
necessary quantity. The fluid deposit
proved to be basin, however, and soon
gave nearly out, only enough running to
keep the mill going three hours a day.
The force of men are now hard at work
on the well and soon will have a full
supply.

The A. and P. railroad is said to be
