GIGANTIC SCHEME,

ON the day mentioned June lstl The sale Of
tickets at the Home Othee has surpassed even
our own sanguine expectations, but we have
side agencies, which had 10 their possession, at
the latest RdYicss, many tickets unsold. ...
The labor incident upon the drawing, ii may
Wen be believed, is immense, as it is our AnX-
ious desire 10 leave nothing undone which sh all
afford every facility for ticket holders TO be
present at the drawing. We hope to aceOmmo-
date all who desire 10 witness the distribution
Of these valuable prizes, and consequently must
ask q little more time in which to arrange t.
In order 10 eject this the Manas ers announce
that che Drawing VIII take place at she
Skating Ainsk, corner Of Nineteenth
and Chestnut streets, in place of tho Mer-
camille Library Hall. as heretofore announced.
| The Rink will aeeOmmodate from i've TO eight
thousand persons, and, 70 IS believed. Will afford
room for ali who desire to be present at the
drawing. -f.
We are unable to g., positive date, bat can
assure the public that IL will not be remote, as
| very large proportion OF the tickets are sold,
or in the hands of agents.
Our orders By mail now exceed 800 per day,
not counting orders from agents. or sales at the
| different sub, city Offices at this rate all the
tickets left will be disposed Of in a short time.
| The Manager, and those associated with him,
in order to give entire satisfaction, desire to dis
pose Of every ticket issued, believing that this
will put at rest all cayi or fauit-hnding, as IT
Will render it impossible for them 10 have any
interest in the scheme beyond the disposal of
| the certificates. ...y -.
