RARE SPECIES
OF RAT FOUND
IN PENSACOLA
WHILE EXAMINING RODENTS FOR
SIGNS OF RuRoNIc PLAGUE. DR..
MILLS, OF METEOROLOGICAL
LABORATORY, FINDS PECULIAR
ONE.

While examining the rats which
were delivered at the state bacteri-
illogical laboratory yesterday, DR..
Mills, the bacteriologist in charge and
who is conducting the examination, ran
across a new specimen of rats or
rather an unusual species for this
country.
The rat referred to is what is known
as the roof, or AleXandrian rat, and is
a native of Egypt where they are
abundant, but they are said to be rare
in America and other countries, al
though, as in this instance, one is
found occasionally in seaport towns,
probably being brought here aboard
vessels.
While to the ordinary observer, or
layman, so to speak, rats is rats" it
does not take a very careful or critical
examination to notice the difference in
this species of rodents and the COM
mon rats found in this country in such
large numbers. The difference Is ap-
parent in the color, (Which is consid-
erably lighter than our rats) in the
size, (being smaller than the ordinary
raD in the head and in the shape of
the body, etc.
This rat will be preserved by Dr.
Mills, who says this is the first one OF
this species he has ever examined.
This is the second unusual specimen
found by DR.. Mills since he has been
examining rats here in the search for
bubonic plague germs. The other one
is a black rat, which, although not so
rare in this section as the roof rat, is
not common. This one was also pre-
served
Only ten rats were examined yes
terday and none of them came from
the waterfront, although DR.. Mills
hopes today to secure some from that
section, as a party interested in the
determination campaign has agreed to
make a special effort to secure some
from that locality for him. The doc
tor is very eager to examine as many
as possible from that section.

BORAH RAILS AT
EASTERN FADDISTS
Senator sayls Conservation Theorists
Are Trying to Shut up the West
They Should Farm Idle Lands.
Nv Associated Prsss.


Washington, Aug. THE "faddists
and theorists of the conservation cause
would shut up the West entirely and
make 1t a colony for the East if they
had their way" declared Senator Be-
rah today during the debate on the
agricultural appropriation bill.
IF these theorists and faddists
would turn their attention to the re-
Mobilization of the thousands of acres
of abandoned lands lying around them
instead of riding through them in Pull
man cars to the West and trying to
tell the people of that country how to
be decent citizens, they would do much
more for the benefit of the country"
He declared that a "cabaT' of about
100 men seemed to exercise such power
over both political parties as to make
it impossible to secure any effective
legislation to open up public lands in
western states to actual homesteaders
and settlers.

The case of Marion Anderson.
convicted murderer of two pO-

elimination of years of drunken.
ness and debauchery, challenges
the consideration of the student
of penal problems. BY what is
considered by many a miscar-
riage of justice, he was given
two sentences of twenty years in
prison, instead Of the death pen
atty, under the law, more fitting
to the crime. He now begs for
extra work, so that from his
earnings he may contribute to
the support of the wife he long
had wronged and now has worse
uhan widowed. Surely no man
in whose heart a proper sense of
Justice is enshrined, can fail to
see how much more in accord
with the higher laws Of God and
man, is this forty-year penance
and service in behalf of wronged
wife and babies, than if the state
in its wrath had murdered the
murderer, and made his helpless
family charges upon charity.
How infinitely more just to So
ciety and more fitting with Gods
great plan, than capital punish
ment, would be a law of life i'm
prisonment at hard labor, every
penny of the product thereof to
go to the support OF the family
