DROWNED In HEAVY SURF
Thrilling Sunday Scenes in the Sea
at Atlantic City.
Three Bathers Go to the Bottom
aud Many Others Narrowly Es-
cape the same Fate.

Atlantic City,N j., Aug. 16.-The record
breaking number that have poured into
this resort within the past two days, to-
gether with those already here, have taxed
the accommodations of this resort to the
lirnil. Yesterday was a Joyous day, but
several accidents In the surf soInew hat
overshaciow ed even the most light hearted
Three drownings and about thirty rescues
rendered the scene upon the beach most
thrilling. The life guards We're Kept on the
Jump from early morning until late in the
evening. Guard Jerry Reed. who responded
To a dozen OF more calls. W as fiEeIiy taken

Fred Marble. wife and child, of Bali imore
and Michael Lafrerty, of Philadelphia,
after an adventure IN which the lives Of
all were nmperilled. were dragged out II
the breakers in an exhausted condition by
Guards Loder, Jeffry and Curriden.
Put r,y address on these so that you
will know where to send them should
never come hack" were the prophetic
words w.ich Thomas C. Lasweil addressed
to the manager or the Gold Mine bath
house today. when he deposited his valu
ables before going into the surf.
The words were spoken half in test, but
tney proved a grewsome reality. Mr..
Lasweil. who was twenty-one years of age
and son of ex-Attorney General Laswell,
of Prince on, Ind, and his friend. j. NJ
Parrott, also Of Princeton, came to At
lantic City yesterday morning.
Neither had ever seen the ocean before,
ard both We're novices at swimming.
There was a strong southerly wind blow
ing, whicn rolled up immense breakers
and a stIff current was running The
two Young men did not venture far out
a, first, but finally they dared each other
to pass beyond the danger lines. Hardly
had they gone fffty feet before the current
caught them and they We're being carried
out TO sea before they realized their
danger They cried FOR help and two other
bathers responded, but found that they
were unable to cope with the wayesbeyond.
Guards Rohinson, Reed, Jones and Asa
Parker went TO their aid and all were
brought safely TO shore except Lasweu.
The guards thought all had been safely
rescued but Parrott, who was the last one
brought in, informed them that his -conl
panion was missing. By this time he had
disappeared beneath the waves.
Shortly after ! O'Clock a Ia ther named
Horace Sutoliff saw a dark object being
iuffeted by the waves not far from shore.
He swan out and discovered IL TO he the
body OF nan. With the assistance OF
several other bathers he towed it to the
shore. 1t was identified a few momen Is
later as the remains of young LasweI.
Life was extinct, but the body was still
warm. Laswell's family were notified OF
hts death. and the remains are at an IN
(lertakers, awaiting their reply.
