EXPLORATION FEAT.
FROM YANGTSE TO 'BRAHMAPUTRA.
Mr. D'Arcy Weatherbe, F. R. G. S., the well-known explorer, has just accomplished a felt that has never been accomplished before by any European, travelling from Putao into Assam through the Kronjong Pass, which is one of the four passes that separate North- East Burma from Assam, his ob- ject being to cross the high water- shed that separates the sources of the Brahmaputra from those of the Irrawaddy. Of the other pasBCE, one is the Sareng, which leads Into the Hukawng valley; another is the Chaukkan, which is further North and the third is the Hpun- gan which is still further to the North. The Kronjong pass is the mont Northerly of all and it is among the snows beneath the Kron- jong Puss that the Ghalum, which with the Zayulchu river, forms the source of the Lohit and Brahmapu- tra rivers.

for themselves through the jungle, the party did not reach the Kron- jong Pass until '20th April, The Mishmi villages were reached on
the 25th and hero the food store was replenished. Saiya, the head of navigation on the Brahmaputra was reached on the 5th May. Sadi; ya is also the railhead of the Assam Railway and is garrisoned by the Assam Rifles.
The Ghalum, the source of the Brahmaputra, that rises under the Kronjong Pass was reached on 20th April. This completed the travors», ing of the region lying between tho Yangtse and the Brahmaputra.. The passage was a very difficult one involving the crossing of the passes, 15,000 feet high; which are between the great ravines of the Salween, Mekong and Yangtse Rivera. The crossing of the pass proved very difficult owing to the enormous -amount of snow on the Assur side" necessitating the constant fording of the ley waters of the Nam Kapl. It was, the first time the pass had been crossed and it was found that from the Mall Hka its junction with the Zayulehu that this part was un-" inhabited; at least Mr. Weatherbe's party saw no natives from 9th to 24th April.

This is not the first time Mr. Weatherbe has visited Burma. "In 1923 he crossed the Chinese Fron-. tier starting from Putao, and en- tered Thibet via the Yangtse. On that occasion he had a very narrow. escapse from losing his life, being captured by Chinese.
Of the other three passes leading into Assám, the Hpungan was first crossed by Wilcox in 1826 and then? later by Prince Henri D'Orleans arld in more recent times by Cap- tain Pritchard, who it will be re- membered was drowned in Taron River (1912) on his return journey by the Nam-Ta-Mai River. The Nam-Ta-Mai River was also used by Colonel (then Captain) Bailey for his journey from Peking to Sadiya (1911).

Voodthorpe crossed the Chauk- kan in 1884 and this pass was again crossed later by Mr. E. C. Young when he journeyed from China to Assam.
Mr. Weatherbe was accompanied by Mr. N. N. C. Stevenson, a son of Major W. Stevenson of Rangoon. Mr. Stevenson was up-country, en- gaged in studying tribal languages and customs of the tribes on, the North-east Frontier when he and.. Mr. Weatherbe met and Mr. Steven- son obtained permission to accom.. pany the explorer and they left Myitkina together on the 2nd March.
