TSCH|FFELY TELLS
OF TWO-yEAR RIDE
Argentine Teacher Says He
Cancelled Trip on Vestris to
Address Geographic Body.

A. F. Tschiffely told of his adventures
on a 10,00o-mile horseback ride that
took two and one-half years, from
Buenos Aires to Washington, last eve
ming, when he gave the first lecture of
the National Geographic Society's series
this season at the Washington Audi
torium.
where are the forses?" is the ques-
ton he most frequently is asked, he
said. They are in New York awaiting
return by steamer to Buenos Aires. The
lecture last evening saved their lives,
and perhaps that of their rider, it was
disclosed.
Tschiffely had booked passage aboard
the Vestris, but obtained permission
from his government, through the
Argentine embassy here, to remain in
this country to address the National
Geographic Society last evening.
Teaches in English School.
DR.. Gilbert GroSvenor, introducing
the speaker, noted that Tschiffely Is not
cowboy, but teacher in an English
school near Buenos Aires.
The rider referred to his horses
Mancha and Cato, as the real heroes
of his trip. One of them was more
than Is years old when he started
Both came through in excellent condi-
ton. They are of the famous criollo
breed, descended from the Arabian
horses introduced by Mendoza in 1885,
and have marvellous endurance.
Riding the length of continent de-
velops many more than horseshoe
troubles, the lecturer said. After leav-
ing Argentina he reached a region
where he had to tie at every halt for
fear they would eat some poisonous
weed. In the Peruvian Desert forage
was exceedingly scarce; he had to pay
natives for grass at the rate of cents
handful. In this region he made
his longest single trip, 80 miles in 20
hours. In Costa Rica the horses and
their rider swan 70 streams in 10 hours.
There, and in Colombia, too, he often
had to cut steps for the horses in the
steep, slippery banks, and push them
up. Along the swampy coast of CHA
pas, Mexico, the horses forded many
dangerous lagoons, infested with alli-
gators.
Rider Stricken With Malaria.
The route lay through tropical jun
up snow-covered Andean trails, and
the rider encountered many ruins, scenic
features and primitive peoples, revealed
in motion pictures and lantern slides
The Central American leg of the
journey took most time. There were
difficulties in crossing the Great Divide
in Costa Rica; the rider was stricken
twice with malaria; once it took three
months for Cato to recover from kick
by another horse, and in Mexico his
progress was slowed by the many recep-
tions in towns and villages.
Dr. Grosvenor in his introduction re-
called that year ago he had re-
ported TO members of the society that
their membership exceeded million
Since that time substantial growth
has continued so that 1t will be neces-
sary for the society to print 100000
copies of the January issue of its Ma
tional Geographic Magazine to reach
the worldwide membership located in
every civilized nation. South America
has some 1000 of these members, and
in Central America are more than a
thousand more.
