Selling Sir Barton
Was Madden's Mistake

John 2. Madden. n of the pillars
OF the running horse industry in this
country. is now firmly convinced that
the business of selecting young horses
Is pretty. largely a gamble. Madden
bred the now famous runner Sir Bar
ton, winner Of the Kentucky derby,
the Preaknees. Handicap and the
Withers Stake. and when the animal
was but a yearlinE he sold him to
Commander Ross for a paltry
$4,000. N.
Madden knows horses as do few
men in this country today, and he
believed that Sir Barton was a good
idea that the horse would turn out
to be such a high class performer as
he has proved himself to be in the
classics of the present season. He
was fooled and he admits his mistake
now.
Sir Barton>made a great impression
on Madden, for after the horse won
Ross $4,000 for him. but the offer
was only smiled at. then declined
with the gent1est thanks. Sir Barton
would be. worth more than Madden
offered, to head Madden's farm in
Kentucky, for the animal is so well
bred there is hardly a question but
that he would be a producer of raw
value.
Sir Barton triumphed with Com
mander Ross because the latter likes
horses that are game. have good rae
ing instinct and are easily, handled
and in these respects Sir Barton can
not be beaten. He acts like a family
dobbin at the barrier, yet he seems
to have a world of whiz and her knows
how to use It.. Jockey LOTUS declares
him to. be one Of the best headed ami
mails he has ever ridden. which in it.
self is no small tribute for LOTUS
has steered many Of the best one the
game has ever known on this side of
the Atlantic.
Madden knew he was selling a good
prospect when he left Sir Barton go to,

not think the animal would turn out
to be such . stake performer ~
thought he would surely be a good
campaigner and a dependable race

never fully concede him a chance in
the greatest events on the turf. I,

Warsaw, Thursday, Feb. 20.-(By The Associated Press )-The second important meeting of Europe's newest parliament, the Polish national assem- bly, was held today and was marked by the formal turning over by Gen. eral Joseph Pilsudski, of his authority as dictator and it's return to him, subject to the approval of the Diet. Ignace Jan Paderewski, the premier, informed the parliament of the coun- try's situation and asked for a vote of confidence in the ministry.
 Need Large Army.
 Premier Paderewski, in lengthy address ringing with patriotism, de- clared that the country needed alrge army and compulsory service in order to fight Bolshevism. Secondly, he said, another effort must be made to promote the prosperity of the workers and give them better homes. Land must be secured to the peasants who had none and more given to those who had only little. but land reforms must not be carried out too hastily. Equal rights must be given to all Polish citizens and freedom of speech guaranteed.
 Poland M. Paderewski declared, should never forget that Tchen is hers as are also cities like Wilma. The Lith- fuanians and Ruthenians, he said, should be permitted to develop their own language customs and schools.
