OLD SLEETH READY FOR A COMEBACK NEW OBLEANS, La.. November 22. After being apparently "all in" mid thoroughly done for in a racing way. Old Sleetli, now in his tenth year, and hero of many an equine battle, in which small fortunes were at staktf, is1 beiiig primed for another season. The veteran campaigner lias been resting all summer and he loandks as though his vacation lias helped him considerably. He is taking work regu--larly at Jefferson Park, and it will not lie surprising to s;ee him bolt down in front a few times when the going gets muddy. When in the stable of the late laker boys G rover and Hundley, Sleeth was one of the most dependable of horses, winning races for them when others in the establishment were failiag with regularity.
