PLAGUE OF WHITE RATS
IN C0MST0Ck MINES
PEST RETURNING FROM GOLD
HILL MINES TO OLD NORTH
END WORKINGS

1t is fact perhaps not generally
known that the sewers of Virginia
City are infested with white rats and
In such numbers as to prove a great

been declared upon them. The story
goes that many years ago, when the
federal prisoners were housed at the
Storey county jail, a prisoner brought
pair of rats with him, which were
the beginning of family tree of
rats that numbers well up into the
thousands. In flushing a sewer re-
Gently on one of the streets hundreds
of rats were driven out, and in some
places where caves had occurred
the rats have taken practical posses
sion of some houses. These rats are
less vicious than their brown cousins
and some people have made pets OF
them And, speaking of rats, the
North End mines have long housed
many of them. but 1t is only com
paratively recently that they have
found their way into Gold Hill. When
the Crown Point connection was made
with the Sutro tunnel, the North
End rats very soon migrated to the
Gold Hill mines, but they are nov
returning to their old home at the
North End, driven out of the JACKIE
by the gases from the recent fire.
