THE RUSSIAN .LARI AT'' DRILL

One feature of The Russian cavalry,
not generally known, will account for
the great superioritp OF the artillery
which accompanies them. EveryRGs
sian mounted soldier is provided with
stout lariat or rope, and is trained to
help heavy guns out of trouble. In
the Criniean war, on more than one
occasion, the Russians brought TWEEN
ty-tour Founders into the field in this
manner, with as many as twenty
horses hitched in teams and Cos sack 8
helping with the drag ropes. In 1914.
when Napoleon beat theltussians near
Paris, in heavy lain storm, Gen. Os-
ten Sacken saved all his gnns, in spite
of the fearful state of the roads, by
putting fifty cuirassiers with their
drag ropes to each gun and caisson.
This habit has accustomed the heRussian
cavalry to take plenty of artillery with
them, and accounts for much of their
superiority over the Turks in Asia
