SPORTING NEWS. £4000.-320 OABH PRIZES, FIFTH GRAND HAMBURG DRAWING IS NOW OPEN. msE Four previous Drawings were filled, JL and all applications that came too late for the Fourth will be registered in this Drawing. The Fifth Grand Drawing for £4OOO will close the cud of October, and the Sixth Drawing will Open on the Ist November. This Fifth Grand Drawing will consist of 320 Money Prizes, amounting to £4OOO, subscribed by 8000 members at 10s each. The various Money Prizes will bo distributed as follows: 1 £3OO Prize 1 £2OO Prize 1 £IOO Prize 2 £SO Prizes 10 £3O Prizes 15 £25 Prizes 15 £2O Prizeo 15 £ls Prizes 160 £lO Prizes 100 £5 Prizes Total Amount, £4OOO, 320 Money Prizes. Tha Grand Principle of these Hamburg Drawings is that a purchaser of 25 Programmes is guaranteed a Prize, and the chances are in favor of the investor drawing a large Prize, as 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. Brad this Carefully.—ln Boaz’s Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odds are only 25 to 1 against an investor of 10s drawii/g'a prize. But carefully note some of the Horae 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 on investor drawing a hone. Now lake the Cash Piizso drawn at the same time, and calculate the odds ; you will find in each of the Cash awards that the odds vary from 200 to 5000 to 1 against an investor drawing a Cash Prize. The whole 20,000 u. arblet are advertised to be replaced for each Drawing of the Cash Prizes, which gives! the enormous odds against investor*, i’he Company would bid;ply r.*k investors _to calculate the odds before placing investments in any horse consultation ; and the Company would not presume to tell the public that they have a number of chances find can win a number of prizes for a single investment of 10s. This Fifth Grand Drawing for £4OOO will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight gentlemen, and the prizes will be paid over as early aa possible after the drawing.
