Double lotteries are generally resorted to, when, from 

 a paucity of horses in two races, speculation on either, 

 separately, is checked. The chances of all the horses 

 are then combined together, and the buyer of the 

 chance which contained the names of the winners of 

 both events takes the lottery. Let us suppose that two 

 races the Planter's Cup and Selling Stakes had each 

 three entries as follows : 



Planter s Cup. Selling Stakes. 



Kingcraft. 



Exeter. 



Chorister. 



Lurline. 



Butterfly. 



Brandy. 



The combined chances would then be : 



1. Kingcraft and Lurline. 



2. Kingcraft and Butterfly. 



3. Kingcraft and Brandy. 



4. Exeter and Lurline. 



6. Exeter and Brandy. 



7. Chorister and Lurline. 



8. Chorister and Butterfly 



9. Chorister and Brandy. 



5. Exeter and Butterfly. 



These nine chances will be drawn for, and auctioned 

 off, in the same manner as if they represented nine 

 different horses entered for one particular race. 



Pari Mutuels and totalisators. The primitive 

 way for arranging pari mutuels is as follows : Near 

 the Kace Stand is fixed a long box divided into 

 partitions, each of which has a slit like those 

 in letter-boxes. On each partition is written the 

 name of a race, in the order they are to be run. 

 The person managing the Pari Mutuel is provided with 

 cards printed in the following form :
