These animals, through very large and awkward, can travel at a terrific rate. Next sword practice is shown. Horsemen, riding at full speed, cut a sheep in two in one stroke, a feat requiring great skill. Other feats of horsemanship are shown, such as pulling a peg and piercing the heart of a great manikin. A camel race affords much amusement. Some native troops in a sham battle perform remarkably well. The cavalry in particular give a very spectacular performance. Then some Nautch girls are shown. These are the Geishas of India and command enormous salaries. They are pictured in some of the dances which made them famous. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
