FIRST Drawing for £2000 on the Hamburg principle filled up before the advertised time. The money will be J returned for the large number of applications that came too late for the n'rst drawing, or programmes will be forwaded for Second Drawing The Second Drawing is now open, for the grand and equjd distribution of Money Prizes amounting to £3000, to be drawn the same as in Hamburg and other Continental Ciiies. 'I his -econd I drawing will take place not later that the end of April, or earlier if Killed, and the Third Drawing will open Ist May. These Grand Drawings wil take place every two months. Over 900 applications for programmes are now registered for the Second Drawing. 7he Company were induced to make this Second I rawin :/ for L3OOO in consequence of the first drawing having filled so rapidly, also to enable them to give larger prizes. The Second Grand Drawing will consist of 240 M0 ey PitizES, amounting toL3OOO, subscribed by 6000 members at 10/- each. The various Money Prizes will be distributed as follows :— 1 L3OO Prize 4 L 25 Prizes 1 150 „ 20 20 „ 1 100 „ 20 15 „ 2 60 „ 65 10 „ 10 30 „ 116 5 „ Total Amount, £3000. 240 Money Prizes. 'Jhe Grand principle of these Hamburg 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 in favour j of the investor drawing a large prize, as j there are 124 large prizes against 116 small ones. To auy investor of L 2 the chances are only 6 to 1 against him drawing a prize, and the Bead Prize or any other may be drawn by any investor of 10/. ■ lie large bulk of the Money in this Grand Drawing is not given away in one big prize, as it is in the Morse Consultations, but you will observe in this Hamburg Drawing that the L3OOO is fairiy proportioned into 240 Pwzes, giving every shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. This Jivmbvro Drawing is on the most novel, and will be conducted on the fairest mine pie possible, so as to give entire p.iolic satisfaction. I his Second drawing for L3OOO 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.
