NEWS. THIRD GRAND DRAWING IS NOW OPEN. Unparallelled success of these grand drawings, as they are carried out on tjte tame principle in Hamburg and other Continental. Cities. The first drawing for £2,000 and the second drawing for L 3 000 filled before the advertised time for drawing. The Company wore induced to make this third grand drawing for L 3,000 in consequence of the great success, and also the confidence gained from the public since opening these Hamburg drawings. This third grand drawing will take place not later than the cud of June, and the founh drawing will open on tho Ist July. late applications are registered for the third drawing. Over 4000 applications for programmes are now registered for the third drawing This third grand drawing will consist of 240 money prizes, amounting to L 3.000 subscribed by 6,000 members at 10s each. fhe various Money Frizes will be distributed as follows : 1 £3OO prize; 1 £l5O prize; 1 £IOO prize; 2 £SO prizes; 5 £3O prizes; 10 £25 prizes; 10 £2O prizes; 10 £ls prizes ; 120 £lO prizes ; 80 £5 prizes.

The grand i.ciple of these Hamburg Drawings is a purchaser of 25 programes is guaranteed a prize, as it is so diawn that a prize must come out to every 25 numbers, aid the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a largo prize, as tiivie are 160 large prizes against 80 small ones. To any investc? vyf ±’2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the head prize or any other may bo drawn by any investor of 10s. The Company would not presume to tell the public that they have a number of chances and can win a number of prizes for a single investment ot 10a. The large bulk of the money in this Grand Prawing is not given away in one big prize, as it is in the horse consultations, but you will observe in this Hamburg Drawing that the £3,000 is fairly proportioned into 240 prizes, giving every shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. This Hamburg Drawing is one of the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest principle possible, s > as to give entire public satisfaction. This third grand drawing for £3,000 will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
