In the Century. Messrs Allen and
Sachtleben, who went around the
world on bicycles, give the following
account of one of their experiences
in Turkestan:
One of the chief incidents OF our
pleasant sojourn was afforded by Gov
ernor Ivanoff We were invited TO
head the procession of the Cossacks on
their annual departure for their sum-
mer encampment on the mountains.
After the usual religious ceremony,
they filed out from the city parade
ground Being unavoidsbly detained
for few moments, We did not come
up until some time after the column
had started As we dashed by 10 the
front with the American and Russian
flags futtering side 10y side from the
handle-bars, cheer after cheer arose
from the ranks, and even tho Cover
nor and his party dotfed their caps in
acknowledgment At the camp we
were favored with special exhibition
of horsemanship. BY single twist
Of the reins the s.ceds would fall To
the ground, and their riders crouch
down behind them as a bulwark in
battle. Then dashing forward at full
speed. they would spring to the
ground, and leap back again into the
saddle, OF, hanging by their legs,
would reach over and pick upa hand
kerchief, cap, or "a soldier supposed to
be wounded. All these movements we
photographed with our camera. OF
the endurance OF these Cossacks and
their Kirghiz horses we had practi-
cal test. Overtaking IA Cossack cour-
ier in tho early part of a days jour
ney, he became no interested in the
velocipedc, as the Russians call the BIZ
cycle, that he determined TO see as
E,uch OF it rs possible. He stayed
with us tho whole day. over distance
of fifty-fve miles. His chief compeu-
sation was in witnessing the surprise
Of the natives, to whom he would
shout across the fields to come and SEQ
the tomAsha, adding in explanation
that We were the American gentlemen
Who had ridden all the way from
America. Our speed was not slow,
and frequently the poor fellow would
have to resort to the whip, or shout,
Slowly, gentlemen, my horse is stirred |;
