HPOETING NEWS. GRAND DISTRIBUTION OF MONEY PRIZES will take place similar to the Hamburg principle of drawing. Nothing ' of tlie kind has ever been introduced m New Zealand, and the system that, will be carried out m this and future drawings will far surpass the chances of getting a prize than m any of the Horse Consultations, as people who have tried frequently m the numerous Horse Consultations know to their sorrow. A trial m this drawing may convince the most sceptical, as the drawing will take place as soon as the tickets are applied for, or not later than the 28th February. The Grand Drawing will consist of 160 MONEY PRIZES, amounting m m all to £2000, subscribed by 4000 Members at 10s each. The vai ions Money Prizes will be distributed as follows: — 1 £300 Prize; 1 £150 Paizs ; 1 £100 Prize; 2 £50 Priz s; 5 £20 Prtz s; 100 £10 Prizes; 50 £5 Prize*. The grand principle of this and future drawings will be that any investor purchasing 25 tickets must secure a prize, injact, guaranteed one, as a prize will be drawn from tlie 160 Prizes to every 25 numbers up to the 4000. Any Investor of £1 the chances will be only 12 to one 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 h on the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest principle possible, and Investors will find it their advantage to speculate a trifle m this drawing m preference to any of the numerous Horse Consultations, where tlie chances vary from 300 to 1 to 20,000 to 1 against getting a prize at all. The Drawing will take place under tlie immediate supervision of 6 gentlemen, and 2 youths will draw the members and prizes, and the prizes will all be paid over within 24 hours after the drawing, or immediately after the winning numbers are forwarded, deducting the \isual 10 per cent, for working expenses. Investors sJwnld apply at once, and all Investors may know after the drawing who the prize-takers are by forwarding a stamped envelope already addressed, thus ensuring perfect faith and fidelity to all Investors. These Drawings for £200 are to take place every Two' Months, this present one to close on February 28, and the following one to open on the Ist March. Prizes paid over within 24 hours after the drawing. < One Prize must come out to every 25 Tickets. Notice. — Name and address of applicant must be plainly written.
