mcdin,s Greatest discovery.

A summary of the important discoveries
made by Sven Hedin, the Swedish explor-
er, during his latest journey into the for.
hidden land of Tibet, according to a
Simla interview telegraphed to the Lon
don Times, is as follows: He found the
true sources of several important rivers,
inducing the Brahmaputra and Indus,
and twice crossed the Province of Bongba,
which had never before been visited by a
European. But his greatest discovery
was that of a continuous mountain chain
which, taken as a whole, is the most mass
i've range on the earth's surface. Al
though its peaks are from 1000 to 5000
feet lower than Mount Everest its passes
average 5000 higher than those, of the
Himalayan range. Not a tree or a bush
grows on this range and there are no
deep cut valleys, for rain is scanty. Hedin
proposes to call this range the Trans
Himalaya. At first the explorer tried to
conceal his identity from the Tibetan and
Chinese officials. but when discovered he
boldly dared them to harm him, at the
same time warning them that they would
be made to suffer if they did so.
