HEROIC HORSEMANSHIP.
Score of Cavalry riding Regulars
With the Ilagenbeek Shows.
Heroic horsemanship of the frontier
and plain, as indulged in by the riding
regulars of the United States cavalry in
drills and frolics, has a strong fascina
tion for those whose blood has not be
come entirely congealed. The reckless
dash, careless abandon and get-up and
goitiveness of these stalwart and agile
recrfiita in their equestrian stunts, not
exactly according to the manual, are
strenuously exciting and thrilling in the
extreme and demonstrate to spleddid
advantage the fearsomeness instilled by
a course of training in the army. With
the Carl Hagenbeck Greater Shows,
which exhibit in Butler, Tuesday, May
Bth, a score of cavalry recruits, all of
whom have seen service, will be present
ed in command of Captain Walter C.
Sharp. In their spirited riding per
formances an exhibition will be given
of cavalrymen in playful pranks and
pastimes. The element of fun is ever
present, bqt does not detract from the
display of skill requisite for the achieve
ment of the feats that are ventured.
These horsemen of the khaki will be
seen in contrast with the converts of
the silk and spangles. Their wild school
of horsemanship embraces hurricans
hurdle riding, vaulting over one, two
and three fast running horses; riding
abreast two, three and four unbridled
mounts, singly and in rairs and trios;
picking objects from th£ ground while
going at fril| speed and executing the
thrilling and amusing cavalry "monkey"
drill as prescribed by thematjnal, These
strenuous stunts end playful pastimes
are indulged in on tha quarter mile hip
podrome ellipse, which gives ample dis
tance for the acquirement of speed by
the horses and a sufficiency of space for
the recreation of the recruits.
