B3TNINTH GRAND HAMBURG DRAWING IS NOW OPEN ! To a Purchaser of 25 Programmes one will bo given Gratis. TjIROM the undoubted popularity and great success J. these drawings have obtained, the promoters are enabled to bring them before the public every two months. Although this Company has a large number of Horse Coiisultationists (about thirty) to contend against, some of whom under fictitious names have been mean enough to do their utmost to injure the promoters of the Hamburg Company, they cannot do 30, as this Compiiny is too well established nnd favourably known with the public all through New Zealand. . : The large number of applications that came m too late will be registered m the ninth drawing ; or 'if the applicant wishes, the money will be returned. ■ • The Ninth Grand Drawing for £1000 will close the end of Juno, and the Tenth Grand Hamburg Drawing will Open on the Ist July. The Ninth 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 10 iSO PHIZES 15 £16 PRIZES 1 2QO PRIZE i.'i 35 PRIZES 160 10 PRIZES 1 100 PRIZE lfi 20 PRIZES 100 6 PRIZES 2 60 PRIZE I TOTAL AMOUNT, '£4000. 32U MONEY PRIZES. To a Purhaser of 26 Programmes one will be given Gratis. The Grand principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, and the chances are m favor of the investor drawing a large prize, as there tire 220 large 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 any other may be drawn by an investor of 108. RKAD THIS.— In Boaz's Grand Hamburg Drawings the greateit odds are only 25 to 1 against an investor of 10s drawing a prize. But carefully note the enormous odds against the investors drawing a Horse or Cash Prize m any of the Hourse Consultations. The marbles are 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 m any horso consultations; nnd this Company would not presume to tell the public that they have a number of chances and may win a number of prizes for a single investment of 10s. NOTE. — Prize Winners whether winning large or small prizes are informed that their names will not be made public without their written consent This Ninth Grand Drawing for £4000 will take place iinder the supervision of a committee of eight subscribers, nnd fche prizes will be paid over as early iis possible after tiie drawing.
