a 9,rgiar-Proo Key.

Most poi.ons ~conversant with the
devices and expedieuts Of practical bur-
glars know that finding Q door locked,
with the key on the inside. does not
generally worry them much. They
quietly insert the slender steel niPpers
into the outside ksyhole. grasp the end
or point OF the key and gently turn 1t.
II unable to turn the lock by this means
they are enabled to thus push the key
back ia onough to insert n OF their
own skeleton keys. or lock-picking ar
rangeL onts, aud open the door with
perfect facility. John Eyno and Matt.
Rishm, Of Gold Hill. have recently per-
fected n very ingenious invention which
must effectually chsckmate any burglar
in that operation. and they have taken
measures to secure q patent for the
same. 1t Is merely Q key so constructed
that q burglar on the outside cannot
possibly turn II ct all with his nipPers.

that the end or point 10 ingeniously
couirived to revolvs. The burglar may
grasp il with his nippsrs and twist away
a. long as hs plsssss, but hs can only
turn the point OF the key. He sees the

It is a very simple, ingenious and effect.

Since the publication in the NEWS OF
an item on the Virginia and Dayton toll
road. giving figures Of its gross recsipts,
etc.. the question has been asked why
other toll roads do not also contribute
their two per cent. to tho support Of the
schools. The only answer 10 that,
with the exception Of the DEVILS Gate
road, all the others are the property OF
the county, their charters having s1.
pred or been forfeited. Tbs county
leases these roads. and there il no pro-
vision In tho lease whereby those col.
lsctins tolls are required to pay the tax
This looks . little like an oversight OF
the part Of the county; for there Is CIR
tainly no good reason why those whc
levy assessments on the travel over th,s 30
roads should not comply with the law
even IL the property leased Is conu'!
property. The Devils Gate franchisi
lies in Storey. Lyon and Ormsby u
ties. and pays its two per cent. directly
10 the State.
