A writer in the Scientific american
says: We clean our premises of these de-
testable vermin by making whitewash
yellow with copperas and covering the
stones and rafters in the cellar with a
thick coat of it. In every crevice where
rat might tread we put the crystals Of
the copperas, and scatter the same in the
corners of the floor The result was a
perfect stampede of rats and mice
Since that time not football of either
rats or mice has been heard about the
house. Every spring coat Of the same
yellow wash is given to the cellar as a
purifier as well as q rat exterminator, and
no typhoid, dysentery, or fever attacks
the family. Many persons deliberately
attract all the rats in the neighborhood
by leaving fruits and vegetables uncov-
cred in the cellar, and sometimes even
the soap is open for their regalement.-
Cover up every thing eatable in the pan
try and cellar, and you will soon starve
them out. These precautions Joined to
the service Of good cat, will prove as
good a rat exterminator as one can pro-
vide. We never allow rats to be poisoned
in our dwelling; they are 50 liable to die
between the walls.

IMPORTANT MINING DECISION.
m. Y. Min.s. Record.I


This action was for ejectment against
| subsequent locators and claimants Of the
| Pelican mine, situated in Los Animas
District in Colorado. Three principles
are enunciated in the opinion of the
court. The first in regard to the law of
locations. There was law of the State
of Colorado passed ID 1866 prescribing
the location of 400 feet; but this law
was of no validity, for it was inimical to
the law of Congress passed just after, and
was in substance repealed by it. The To-
cation of this mine, being in 1873 will be
held to be under the law of Congress of
1866.
The second principal is, that the local
regulations and rules of mining district
are to be regarded when not in conflict
with the law of Congress, or of the State.
In this case there was regulation that
q person upon discovering a mineral vein
must file certificate, and might then
within ninety days dig shaft ten feet in
depth. 1t was not certain whether the
shaft was dug within ninety days, but
inasmuch as twas dug before the rights
of others interviewed, there would be no
forfeiture. For it has been said that
where requirement does not also pre-
scribe a forfeiture for compliance,
there will DO no such forfeiture, unless
others have been misled, and their rights
have interviewed.
The third principal relates to the
question of the requisite amount of work
to be performed upon lode in order to
hold it. The act of Congress of 1875

self, if the tunnel is used for the purpose
of developing the mine. The act of Con-
gress does not prescribe what shall be
necessary to render the tunnel valid
one But the State statutes do prescribe
certain formalities. There is some doubt
whether work done on tunnel not re-
corded according to State law, would be
available for holding the mine. In the
case of Mt. Dravalo Mining Co., VS.. Col
linson, Judge Hillard says: "Work done
outside of the claim, if done for the pur-
pose, and as means of prospecting the
claim, Is as available for holding tho
claim as if done within the boundaries
of the claim ITSELF" The evidence as to
the stalking of the mine is not as plain as
would be desired. The defendants, how
ever, who attempted to take the mine
from the plaintiffs, were not misled or
deceived, as to the boundaries of the
mine, and therefore the tracing of said
boundaries is sufficient. The plaintiffs
were also in possession at the time de.
