Oriental Saddles.

I'm the matter Of hard riding the sea
soned and expert European will always
beat the Oriental. for the latter is hcavi-
" handicapped by the eastern saddle.
which tires the horseman from the
cramped position he is forced to main
tain; tho stirrup feathers are so short
that the knees Of the rider are but three
inches below the level Of his waist. The
eastern saddle has its advantages; the
rider cannot be thrown, he can rise IN
the great shovel shaped stirrups, and
standing firm as a rock high above his
saddle, can use his curved sword OF
spear with advantage, and can actually
fire an effective shot over his horse S
Group at a pursuer with gun or pistol
Tho sword OF the eastern horseman Is
curved and highly tempered; 1t is car
ricd not at the riders belt. but under the
surcingle that binds the thin blanket
that forms his bed ut night down on ms
neaked saddle. The reason why the
Oriental horseman is hardly ever thrown
is simply that the pommel Of the saddle
IS furnished with a high peak, which !.
clutched in case ofneed; these high peaks
are dangerous in the extreme to a Euro
means idea. but tho Asiatic cannot ride
without them. and among the wealthy
they are lagishly Ornanontcd with ST.
YER, gold, enamcls and valuable gems.
The eastern saddle, giving very firm
seat rs it does, enables the horseman t'
use his gun with good effect. Game o.
frequently shot from the saddle, and the
antelope is usually hunted on horseback
and shot. Tho great shovel shape
eastern stirrup forms a firm platform
for the foot, and its pointed corner
used in lieu Of the spur throughout ASA
Spurs are unknown in Central ASIA
though tho mention Of tho spur tn
name Of which still remains, is frequen
in Persian poetry.--Good Words.

Of others. They We'd with each

he snatched mp the gauntlet Instant

He appointed Luke r. Parsons cap

Rame commenced. Old veterans
forgot their rheumatism and became
young again while chasing the girls
from base 10 base, but they were
soon vanqulshed although they
showed their old-tlme grit aud per-
severance. The accomplished lady
umpire declared the game won by
the girls by great odds. We could not

parties ;of this we are sorry for there
were those among the ladies worthy
Of especial mention. I refer tn the
