circled are placed in another wheel

is drawn from the wheel OF Numbers, and al the
same time Prize is drawn from the other
wheel. The Number and Prize drawn out are
opened and exhibited to the audience, and regis.
tered by the Commissioners, the Prize being
placed against the number drawn. This opera:
