qPOBTING NEWS. £4000.-320 CASH PRIZES. TENTH GRAND HAMBURG DRAWING IS NOW OPEN. To a purchaser of 25 programmes one will be given gratis. From the undoubted popularity and great success these drawinga have obtained, the promoters- are enabled to bring them before the public every two months. Although this company has a large number of horse consultationists (about 30) to contend against, Borne of whom under fictitious names have been mean enough to do their utmost to injure the promoters of the Hamburgh Company they cannot do so, as this company is too well established and favorably known with the public all through New Zealand. The large number of applications that came in too late wilt be registered in the tenth drawing ; or, if the applicant wishes, the money will be returned. The Tenth Grand Drawing for £4000 will close the end o£ August, and the Tenth Hamburg Drawing will open on the Ist September The Tenth Grand Drawing will consist of 320 MONEY PRIZES, amounting to £4000, subscribed by 8000 members at 10s each. The various Monet Phizes will be iistributed as follows : — L £300 Peize 15 £25 Phizes 1 £200 Prize 15 £20 Prizes 1 £100 Prize 15 £15 Prizes 2 £50 Prizes 160 £10 Prizes 10 £30 Prizes 100 £5 Prizes Total amount, £4000. 320 Money Prizes. To a purchaser of 25 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 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. Bead this. — In Boaz's Grand Hamburg Drawings the greatest odds are only 25 to 1 against an investor of 10s drawing a prize. But carefully note the enormous odds against' investors drawing a horse or Cash Prizes in any of the Horse 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 in any horse consultation ; and 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 Tenth Grand Drawing for £4000 will take place under the supervision of a committee of eight subscribers, and the prizes will be paid over as early as possible after the drawing.
