Every mine that has an entrance on
the level is infested by rats, and there
Is no surer indication OF coming dis
aster than a general exodus OF the
rodents. AS surely as the rats are seen
leaving the mine, just so surely will q
cave-in occur IN the next day or two.
Some miners are superstitious about
the matter and fancy the rats are en-
dowed with foresight, and SO they are,
but not of the kind that is commonly
imagined.
A Cave-in never takes place without
warning For days before fall OF
any portion OF the roof OF the mine the
earth and rocks are slowly settling In
to position for the grand crash. The
rats feel the motion OF the mass, prob
ably hear the cracks that are caused
by the settling OF the layers, and i'm
agine, If rat can be supposed to have
any Imagination, that the earth is be-
coming alive, SO they become panic
stricken and rush out in swarms- II
has often happened. both in this coun-
try and Europe, that the miners refus-
ed to go into mine that the rats had
deserted, and the caution was invan-
ably justified by the event.
