Total Amount, £4OOO. 320 Money Prize*. The Grand Principle of there Hamburg Drawing* i« that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a largo Prize, a* there are 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 any investor of 10s. Bead this OarestiiLY, —ln Boaz’s Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odd* are only 25 to 1 against an investor of 10s drawing a prize. But carefully note some of the Horse Consultations on the Melbourne Cup, advertising 20,000 members at 10s each, equal to £IO,OOO. The Cup gives 133 nominations, so that the odds are over 150 to 1 against an investor drawing a horse. Now take the Cash Prizes drawn at the same time, and calculate the odds , you will find in each of the Cash awards that the odds vhry from 200 to 5000 to 1 against an investor drawing a Cash Prize. The whole 20,000 marbles are advertised to be replaced for each Drawing of the Cash Prizes, which gives the enormous odds against investors. The Company would simply ask investors to calculate the odds before placing their investments in any horse consultation; and 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 inveetment of 10s. This Fifth Grand Drawing for £IOOO 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.
