Chicago, July 19.-Back to its

cago Cubs are in the van in the Ma
tional league. and to nothing more
than it's infield can this be attributed.

BELMONT PAID Sl25,OOO
FOR HORSE he NEVER saw


There are not many men in the world
who could pay $125.O00 for a horse
without a look at him. But August
Belmont is one OF the few, and he made
such purchase when he bought the
great English race horse and stallion
Rock Sand. He has never had re-
greet for the purchase. Rock Sand has
sired the best 2-year- old-racers of
the season. Footprint and Trap Rock.
why did 1 buy Rock Sand?" ask
ed Mr.. Belmont i'm the New York Sun,
recently. For the very good reason
for my Nursery. Rock Sand is a
Stockwell horse through and through.
Because OF that great strain OF blood
/ purchased him.
Years ago my father had horse
called The Ill-Used. He was very
successful at the Nursery, being a
Stockwell. Since the death of The
Ill Used / have missed that particular
strain of blood in my stations, so
made. up my mind to purchase Rock
Sand If possible. The opportunity
presented itself and gave orders to
my agent in England to buy the horse,
although / had never seen him."
Don't you think 1t was plucky
thing to buy a horse you had never
seen?'
II don't think / took any greas
chance in the matter" replied Mr..
Belmont, with laugh. II was ia
miliar with his great record and !
was assured he was a fine horse He
was just the type l wanted, not too
tall, not too big, but symmetrical In
every respect.
Rock Sand, from what had heard
of him, seemed to fill every require
ment. He was not a big horse, but
he was strong, lusty and seemingly
able to carry big weights. His rec
ord on the turf proved this. Other
than his ability as n racehorse, he had
fine disposition, sound, straight legs
and fine feet. He was an iron horse.
That was the type / sought and 1
purchased him for $125,000 but be-
fore he landed at the Nursery he
cost me $4,000.
