Grand Distribution of MONEY PRIZRS will take place similar to the Hamburg principle of drawing; nothing of the kind has ever been introduced in New Zealand, and the system that will be carried out in this and future drawings will far surpass the chances of getting a Prize than in any of the Horse Consultations, as people who have frequently tried in the numerous Horse Consultations know to their sorrow. A trial in this Drawing may convince the most sceptic d, as the drawing will take place as soon as the tickets are applied for, or not later than the 28th FEBRUARY

This Grand Drawing will consist of 100 Money Prizes, amounting in all to £2,000 subscribed by 4,000 members at 10s each.

The grand principle of this Jand future drawings will bo that any investor purchaseing 25 Tickets must secure a prize, in fact guaranteed one as a prize will be drawn from the IGO Prizes to every 25 numbers up to the 4,000. Any investor of £1 the chances will only be 12 to 1 against him, and any investor of £2 will only be 6 to 1 against him getting a prize, and the head prize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10s. This drawing is on the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest princinles possible, and investors will find it to their advantage to speculate a trifle in this drawing in preference to any of the numerous Horse Consultations where the chances vary trom 300 to 1 to 20,000 to 1 against getting a prize at all. The drawing will take place under the immediate supervision of six gentlemen and two youths will draw the numbers and prizes, and the prizes will all be paid over within twenty four hours after the drawing, or immediately after the winning numbers are forwarded, deducting the usual ten per cent for working expenses.
