EXPLORER OF CHINA
RETURNS TO AMERICA
Especial to The sentinel. /

New York. Apr. 15.-Dr Edgar
Cell, traveller and author, the only
man living who ever Travelled the full
length of the great wall of China Ca
dangerous journey OF 1000 miles)
has arrived here on the Minnehaha
with wonderful tales of heretofore
| uncharted portions of the mighty
! breastworks; of the discovery of a
tribe of hairy, wild Chinese pigmies
whose ancestors can be traced to 210
y. c., and details OF a general move
ment in China looking to the estab-
| lishment of a great standing army.
The explorer discovered the exist
ence of the hairy pigmies through a
careful study of the great wall and
the folklore in half a dozen dialects
along its towering sides.
1t is said that l million men
worked on the wall and that every
detail of construction was so care
fully watched that the unlucky
ice through which spear-point
could be thrust was buried alive in
the great easement that was found
faulty.
The newly discovered pigmies, ac-
ccrding to DIR. Cell. are men who
could not stand the pressure OF work
in 210 b. c. and ran into the wilds
to become savages and maniacs on
account of their frightful experien-
ces.
The sight of thousands of their
relatives and friends becoming part
and parcel of the walls, he declares,
was TOO much for those who sought
safety in flight.
''The interesting folklore that
studied through Interpreters" said
the explorer, gave me a line on
these little wild men, and we locat-
ed them far in the interior. | have
man among them now. and | am
interested to know how he is faring."
DIR. Cell had many narrow escapes
from death. both On account of the
PERCEPTIONS going and at the hands
of the natives of Thibet. many of
whom had never seen a white man
before and regarded him as some
kind of an evil being.
