SPORTINa NEWS. SECOND GrRAND DRAWING IS NOW OPEN. TjiIRST Drawing for £2ooo on the Hamburgh JJ principle filled up before the advertised time. The money will be returned for the large* number of applications that came too late for the first drawing, or programmes will be forwarded for Second Drawing. The'Secoiid Drawing is now open for the grand and equal distribution of Money Frizes, 'amounting to £3000, to be drawn the same "as in Hamburgh and other Continental Cities. This' Second Drawing will taVe place not later tban the end of April, or earlier if' filled, and the Third "Drawing will open Ist May. These Grand Drawings will take place every two months. Over 3000 applications for programmes are now registered for the Second Drawing. The. Company were induced to make this Second Drawing for £3000, in consequence of the first drawing having filled so rapidly, also to enable them to give- larger prizes. This Second Grand Drawing will consist of 240 Money Prizes, amounting to £3000, subscribed by 6000 members at 10s each. The various Money Frizes will be distributed as follows:— 1 300 Prize. lo £3o Prizes 20 £15 Prizes l£lso-Frize 4 £25 Prizes 65,£10 Prizes 1 £100 Prize 20 £20 Prizes 116 £5 Prizes 2 £60 Prizes Total amount, £3000. 240 Money Frizes. The grand principle of these Hamburgh Drawings is that a purchaser of ?5 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 f.avor,of the investor drawing a large priz?, T as there are 124, large prizes against. 116 small .ones. To any' investor of £2, the chances are only 6 to 1 against his drawing a prize, and the Head Prize orany other may be drawn by any investor of 10s. The large bulk of the, Money in this Grand Drawing is not given away in one big prize, as it is in the Horse Consultations, but you will observe in this Hamburgh Drawing that the £3000 is fairly proportioned into 240 Prizes, giving every shareholder an equal chance of getting a good prize. This Hamburgh Drawing is on the most novel, and x will be conducted on the fairest principle possible, so as to give entire public satisfaction. * This Second Drawing for £3000 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.
