An attempt is being made this Spring to penetrate the heart of the great
Sahara Desert and solve the mystery that envelops the savage Tribe of
Tauregx, a band of wild Arabs who have never recognized any civilized
authority. Both men and women members of the tribe always keep their
faces veiled in black. The region where they dwell is known as the Land
of Terror. The Chicago Tribune organized the expedition, which is making
the 2,000-mile journey across the hot sands on camels.

speed of 186,326 miles a second. This tremendous speed would carry a
person around the earth seven times in one second!
