ChoIIedon Second Best
Horse in Troininq.

Gilded Knight beat Challedon in
4he Chesapeake at Havre de Grace
y couple of weeks ago, but he beat
him by only three lengths, at l 3-16
miles and Challedon was closing
ground at the wire. Johnstown beat
Challedon by six to eight lengths in
the mile-and- quarter Derby,
pulled up and looking over his
shoulder. Being slightly near
sighted, Big John wondered where
the h Challedon was.
Challedon is the second-be
S-year-old in training. Gilded
Knight may nose him out for place
in the short Preakness, but, when
the Belmont Stakes comes around
on June 7, with its 1l2 miles of test
ing run, it's Challedon that John
will have to beat for the big prize.
And he'll beat him, too, or the men,
bers Of the Johnstown Marching and
Chowder CLUB will wind up in the
hands of Uncle Andrew, the corner
Shylock.
Ciencia? A nice girl, and one
whom we will hate to whip, but
chivalry comes second and $780, 900
comes first with Johnstown. John is
q highly practical antelope.
When We first saw him and fell
for him, Johnstown was 2-year-
old, running second and third up at
Saratoga. He was lean and trim and
a shiny golden brown. He couldn't
quite match the 6-furlong speed of
Ell Chico, but, for once in misspent
life, we knew something about a
horse. We knew John was one thing
and Ell Chico was another, and John
was the great one.
Johnstown bloomed in the winter,
and Chico, the well-named kid, did
not. John is big horse today. He
Is darker than he was as youth, a
dark red brown. One of his ears
is slightly Topped, and he has a
white blaze, the shape of a cur
tailed a." on his forehead. His
father, jamestown, was speed king.
His mother, La France, and her
father, Sir Gallahad III, produced
stayers.
Well, you can't blame us for toast
ing our luck in a f1agon of Gale
donian mead. We never nursed a
Derby winner before. AS the Count
of Monte Cristo used to say, "One!"
And the Preakness and Belmont will
follow.

Johnstown Chowder Club
Sees Triple for Hero d..
BY JOHN LARDNER,
,erja1 Correspondent of The StaI

NEW YORK, May 9 CN.AN.A).-
Short of running Johnstown for
President next wear on coalition
ticket, the Johnstown Marching
and Chowder Club, which has fol-
lowed the big fellow faithfully since
August of 1898, knows no. sturdier
gesture of confidence and appre-
citation than to send its money right
back on big John for the PreakneSs
and the Belmont Stakes.
The Kentucky Derby. Preakness
and Belmont constitute Americas
golden trinity for 3-year-olds-and
John will win 'em all, as sure as
you are sitting there tearing up a
So ticket on Technician.
War Admiral won this handsome
triple. and so did Sir Barton and
Gallant Fox. In other words, it
takes lot of horse. Even Twenty
Grand, the finest running animal
between the days of Man O War
and Johnstown, failed by whisker
when he ran second to Mate in the
PreakneSS.

GHded Knight Not Roted
In Johnstowns Gloss.

The PreakneSS comes up at mary
lands Pimlico track this Saturday.
The race is at 3-16 miles, one six
teenth less than the Derby route,
and the Derby route was jog for
Johnstown. He worked up sweat,
yes, but you can work up a sweat
by lying on your back for minutes
beneath a sun like Louisville's.
Who is going to beat Johnstown
in the bob-tailed classic at Pim-
lieo? A few days ago, there was a
certain amount of grumbling in
expert and non-expert quarters
about the fact that Gilded Knight
was not in the Derby.
1T amt Official" muttered the
boys in this dissenting camp. Gid
ed Knight is the best of the 3-year-
olds, on his record"
Gilded Knight? Say, he belongs
to our barn. Do you know what we
call him around the clubhouse? We
call him mo. g" or the other
hoss." He is very tidy piece of
horseflesh, comrades, better than
most, but he can't carry Johns
towns bat.
AS a matter of fact, Mr.. Sunny
James Fitzsimmons, our peerless
trainer (some of the boys around
the club were going to impeach Mr..
Fitzsimmons before the Derby, but
now we like him flne), tells us that
Gilded Knight worships Big John
from respectful distance.
"His chief ambition in life" says
Mr.. Fitz, "is to get Johns auto
graph"
And guess John would be per-
fectly willing to oblige There is
nothing offlsh or highfalutin' about
the honorary president Of the
Johnstown Marching and Chowder
Club.
