Ia HAVE FOUND 1T UTTERLY IMPOs-
W sibie TO complete the arrangements
NECESSARY FOa THE DRAWING
GIGANTIC SCHEME,

on the day mentioned June lst) The sale Of
tickets at the Home Office has surpassed even
our own ,sanguine, expectations, but We have
been unable 10 gather in full reports from out
side agencies. which had in their possession. at
the latest adyicas, many tickets unsOld.
The labor incident upon the drawing, il may
we'll be believed, is immense. as it is cur anx-
lous desire to leave nothing undone which shall
afford every facility for ticket holders to be
present at the drawing. We hope to accommO-
date all who desire to witness the distribution
OF these valuable prizes, and consequently must
ask a little more time in which to arrange il.
In order to effect this the Manaa ers announce
that the Drawing will take place M the
Skating Rink. corner of Nineteenth
and Chestnut streets, in place of the Mer-
camille Library Hall, as heretofore announced.
The Rink viii accommodate from Eve to eight
thousand persons, and, 1t is believed, will afford
room. for all who desire to be present at the
drawing.
We are unable to tx positive date, but 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, OF sales at the
different sub city Offices; at this rate all the
tickets lett viii 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 cayll or fault-hnding, as II
will render it impossible for them TO have any
interest in the scheme beyond the disposal of
the certificates.
Inc SUCCESS OF the enterprise Is Dc9O hu All
doubt.
Parties who have already invested may rest
assured inst the drawing will take place at the
earliest possible moment, duo notice OF which
will be given in few days.
The Manager still guarantees to the holders
OF certificates a return of the money in case OF
any failure to effect the drawing, every dollar
OF which IS now deposited among five OF the
safest banking houses in the city of st. Louis.
to remain there in trust for the safety Of ticket
holders until after the drawing At the same
time the Manager assures them that nothing CAN
occur now to prevent the scheme coming to
successful termination.

ice by the late proprietor, Alex. Kelsey, Esq,
WITH bill of sale, including the furniture. and
