STEPHENS, Hon. Sec. Q P O R T I N GYIVT E W S. £4000~320 CASHPRIZES - rg_»SIXTH GRAND HAMBURG DRAWING IS NOW OPEN. THE Five previous Drawings wero filled, and applications that came too late will be registered in the Sixth Drawing. The Sixth Grand Drawing for £4000 will close the end of December, and the Seventh Hamburg Drawing will open on the Ist January. This Sixth Grand Drawing will consist of 320 Money Prizes, amounting to £4000, subscribed by 8000 members at 10s each. The various Money Prizes will be distributed as follows :— • > 1 £300 PRIZE 15 £25 PRIZES 1 £200 PRIZE 15 £20 PRIZES 1 £100 PRIZE 15 £15 PRIZES 2 £50 PRIZES 160 £10 PRIZES, 10 £30 PRIZES 100 £5 PRIZES, Total Amount, £4000. 320 Monet Prizes The grand principle of these HamburgDrawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawinga large prize, as there are 220 largo prizes to 100 small ones. To an investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Prize or anj other may be drawn by any invester of 10s. Read this.—ln Boaz's Grand Hamburg Drawings tho greatest odds are only 25 to 1 against an investor of 10s drawing a prize. But carefully note the enormous odds against investors drawing a Horse or Cash Prize in any of the Horse Consultations. The marbles aro replaced for each drawing of the Cash Prizes, which gives the enormous odds against investors. This Company would simply ask investors to calculate the odds before placing their investments in any horse consultation ; and this Company would not presume to tell the public that thoy have a number of chances and may win a number of prizes for v single investment of 10s. Note.—Prize Winners whether winninglarge or small prizes are informed that their names will not be made public without their>. written consent. This course will bo pursued in consequence of the company having received many letters at various times from prize winners, particularly requesting thecompany not on any account to make their names public. This Sixth Grand Drawing for £4000 will takeplaceunder the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be. paid over as early a3 possible after the drawing.
