Mr. Thain, who lives at Sutton, Surrey, said to a Daily Mail reporter: "We had several tickets between us and no one offered to buy our chance. I did not have a ahilling on the horse. We were thrilled at our good fortune, but we continued at work until the bank closed."

The organisers have decided this year not to use cheques, and on the presentation of their tickets people will receive their prizes in notes.

CALCUTTA SWEEP.

SPIRITED REPLY TO CRITICISM.

PLEASE YOURSELF!

Mr. Edgar Wallace and one or two other noted publicists in Britain have felt called upon within the past few days to air their views on the conduct of the Royal Calcutta Turf Club Derby Sweepstake, says the Allahabad Ploneer. These in- dividuals have expressed their dis- satisfaction with the way the Sweep is run at present, and more parti. cularly with the "irabccility of the secrecy which has surrounded the draw."

It is highly improbable that these criticisms will cause more than a certain amount of amusement, in Calcutta, and it is safe to predict that the amount of sack-cloth and ashes commonly in use among mem Mr.bers of the R.C.T.C. will not be increased as the result of this in- dictment.

The other Blenheim number was held jointly by Mr. Thomas Lane, aged 34, a single man living with his mother at 2 Croft Terrace, Rudge Road, Coventry, and Mr. W Osborne, 28, married, of Binley, near. Coventry. Both are employed at the Riley Motor Works and there was much enthusiasm at the factory when the news became known. Mr. Lane is engaged to be married.

We bought our number about three months ago," sald Osborns, "and it was difficult to find the 15s. 10d. to pay for It."

They said that they sold half their chance for £2,500, and so they should therefore each receive about £24,000. The number was one of those bought by Mrs. McKay, of Ransome Road, Coventry, through her bank and sold in the works. She has received official confirmation of the winning number.

Two of the numbers in the same sweepstake for Illad, the second horse, were also held in Britala. Mr. J. H. Dodds, a solicitor of Leeds, shared one with four friends, and they hope to receive about £6,000 each. They sold 47 per cent, of their share for £14,000.

Mr. Edgar Wallace and those who think with him are as fully aware as the public is that the Calcutta Sweep, being a purely private affair, originally intended for the benefit of members of the R.C.T.C. and their friends only, is entitled to conduct its affairs outside the glare of publicity and its attendant risk of police prosecution.
