The Tipperary show at the Grand last Friday night was a splendid production, but the at- tendance did not nearly come up to the merits of the show. The scenic and electrical effects in the last act were most realistic, although the burning out of a fuse in the transformer and the consequent failure of the lights in the opera house made it im- possible to go through with the Zeppelin scenes.

G. Todd, formerly Indian Agent there. This curious instrument appears to be nothing less than the veri- table key which locked and um. locked the gates of the old Jesuit Fortress 265 years ago. It is evi I I dently lrand-wrought from a strap of malleable iron (1 1/1,) one and a quarter inches wide, (6) Six inches long and (3-8) three eighths of an inch thick, ending in a circle 2% inches in dia- meter forming the ring of the key, the portion forming the key being hammered down to 1.8 inch thick, the width cut away one half leaving a shoulder at the ring. The portions curious- ly cut, to fit the wards of the lock, which are five in number are well defined, turning on a central pinion in place of the or- dinary barrel and may be an em- ergency key made to supply the place of one lost. In fact it is a crude imitation and may have been the forerunner of those modern expert fancy keys pro- vided for letter boxes in post of- flces. However its history and make-up is of great interest. It is in a good state of preservation though somewhat rust-eaten. lieorge D. Grant, barrister, --- - `third son of the late Rev. R. N.
