CATASTROPHE AT SEASIDE.
FOUR PEOPLE DROWNED. (United Press Association—By Electrlo Tolegraph—Copyright.) DELHI, August 5. Three men and a woman were drowned while bathing at Juhu, a Bombay seaside resort. All the victims were prominent parsees. The men lost their lives in a heroic attempt to save the woman, who was overwhelmed in a wave 50 feet from the shore. Her husband went to the rescue in response to her screams, and reached his wife, but both were carried away, and the others were submerged while trying to regain the shore. When the mother of one of the victims appeared, she attempted suicide by drowning.
