Dean Is a nice-looking. weil-manrered lad
of excellent bearing, good countenance and
apparent breeding. As far as the sporting
editor knows he is suiltless of wrongdoins.

with jockeys to again stake anything on
their veracity or honesty. He once did

horses. on which the very men who spent
money and time to get him reinstated, bet

As for the racing officials and the racing
