HEAT WAVE IN SYDNEY
MANY PEOPLE COLLAPSE (United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) SYDNEY, 20th February. The citizens of Sydney have sweltered for the past three days in humidity. A terrific, tierce hot wind to-day, while banishing mugginess drove the mercury to 104 degrees at 2.10 o’clock this afternoon, intensifying the discomfiture and causing many people to collapse. The weather cooled oil towards evening and the respite was very welcome.
