The Second Drawing is now open, for the grand an-l equal distribution of Money Prizes, amounting to £3000, to be drawn the same as m Hamburg and other Continental Cities.

Over 3000 applications for programmes are now registered for the Second^ Drawing. Thu Company wore induced to make this Second Drawing for £3000, m consequence of the first drawing having filled so rapidly, also to enable them to give larger prizes This Second Grand Drawing will consist of 240 Money Phizes, amounting to ,£3OOO, subscribed by 6000 members at 10/- each. The vat ions Money Frizes will be distributed as follows: — 1 £300 Prize; 1 £150 Phizi; ; 1 £100 Prize; 2 £60 Prizrs ; 10 £30 PitTZEs; 4 £25 Prtzes ; 20 £20 Prizes; 20 £15 Prizes; 65 £10 Phizes ; 116 £5 Prizes. Total Amount, £3000. 240 Money Prizes. ; '■ . The grand principle of. these Ham .burg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, as it is so drawn that a prize must come out to every 25 numbers, and the chances are m favour of the investor drawing a large prize, as there are 124 large prized against 116 small ones. To any investor of £2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Head Prize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10/. The large bulk of tho Money m this Grand Drawing is not given away m one big prize, as it is m the Horse Consultations, but you will observe m this Hainhurg Di'awing that the £3000 is fairly proportioned into 240 Phizes, giving every . ( shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. This Hamburg Drawing m on the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest principle jtosuble, >o as to give entire public satisfaction.
