There are no better horsemen in the
world than the cavalry officers Of the
italian army, yet even among them
there are very few who could perform
the feat achieved by one of them. To
run an ordinary foot race is easy
enough, but to run at full speed for
several hundred yards holding in one
hand spoon on which rests an egg
and to reach the goal without dropping
the egg is a feat which must be prac
ticed carefully a long time before it
can be performed successfully, and as
a result there are not many who can
be sure Of accomplishing 1t whenever
they try. Great, therefore. was the
surprise when an Italian officer mount
ed on horseback performed this diff.
cult feat Moreover, he selected a
course In which there were two or
three high fences. and these he cleared
