Nzw YORK, Sept 6.-The feats Of
horsemanship daily performed by Buff
falo Bills aggregation Of the worlds
rough riders excite the wonder and ad-
niration Of thousands Of interested on
lockers know Of six men, however,
here in New York who can perform
deeds equally daring and skdllfuL They
are gentlemen in private life who have
never given an exhibition of their
prowess save in the riding academy or
bride path They are Henry Clausen,
son Of the great brewer; prince Zieg''
Tynberg Of insurance fame; George
Law, the street railway king Howard
Carroll, Journalist and steamb boat mag
nate; John P. Eckhardt. the renowned
sportsman, and L. T. Remington, artist,
writer and athlete.
For rough, fancy, daredevil riding
or driving, the sestet could hold their
own with any of Buffalo Williams
wild men. +" The most skillful of the
riders are young Henry Clausen and
prince Zieg'' Tynberg. They can put
a horse through all sorts Of PAGES and
seemingly obtain complete control over
the mental as well as physical attri butes
of the animal. This they accomplish by
kindness, not by force. Neither believes
in whip or spur. They simply talk
to the horse. pat him on the neck, and,
prestol as if by magic, the animals
brain suddenly becomes keenly recep-
tive, and he understands perfectly what
is required of him
Two more of the sestet, John p
Eckhardt and Howard Carroll, are as
good cross country riders and have as
firm a seat and graceful style as any
Of Mr.. Cody's German Uhlans, Royal
Irish dragons or French chasseurs-
There is no ditch, stream, rivulet or
brook that they would hesitate to go at,
no ground rough enough to make them
halt, no fence or walk high enough to
brighten them from attempting to top.
They have had many bad falls, but are
never afraid to again defy the lightning.
As a driver of four, six or eight horse
tallyhO George Law stands unequaled
hereabouts. No professional or amateur
that have ever seen can beat him. He
can give any Of Buffalo Bill's drivers
Of the "Deadwood'' coach cards and
spades in the game and run away from
them. He does not mount a nag much
nowadays, however, as he has grown
far over the 200 pound limit, and, as he
himself puts it, he would pull down a
Liverpool draft horse after an hours
jaunt. - Instead Of riding he has re-
course to boxing, in which science he is |
an adept, to keep in check his increasing
