HE ISA RAT DRIVER. LUMINOUS PAINT SUCCEEDS WHERE BELLS, TAR AND TRAPS FAILED.

A Man Who Makes Good Money Clearing Warehouses and Other Concerns Around New York of Troublesome Lodents— Be-

gan the Business In Stockholm.

Haibtues of Riverside drive, between Seventy-fifth and Eightieth streets, on very sunny days have noticed a middle aged man carrying a case, which ap- pears to be about three feet long by one foot deep and two feet wide. It is ap- parently a black leather case with an | ordixery grip handle to the upper part, and the man, seeking some unfrequent- ed piece of well, generally one of the embrasures, places his case on the wall, smokes his pipe and loiters around, look- ing at the ever changing river and its traffic. If cthers come around, he moves gn, but if not he may stay there from two tothree hours in the fullsun. He is a rat catcher, or rather a rat driver. He works only in large warchouses and does not touch the smaller dwelling houses or flats except in rare cases.

He isa Scandinavian whom nothing will warm to conversation but his na- tive tongue. His case is wood on the back, ends and bottom and wire on the front aud top. There are neat spring shades which roll down over front and top. In this cage are eight or ten large rats. If any one comes near, down go the shades, but as long as the coast is clear the shades are up and the rats are running around basking in the sunlight. If he takes you into his confidence, be will tell you that it is with these rats be clears buildings. The other day he said:

‘*‘When I was living in Stockholm, the large granaries were ful! of rats, and a reward was offered to clear then. Many tried. ‘Traps were set by the hundred.

‘‘One man built a room as large as ar ordinary parlor, cased it with tin and fed the rats with oatmeal scented with oil of aniseed, gradually laying trains of this feed to the rcom until he bad all the rats on a string. Then he fitted an automatic drop to the entrance, and when his rats were feeding he caged them all, several hundred. The first man who did this went into the room with dogs to kill them and was nearly eaten himself, like that farmer out west a few weeks ago. The second man starved and then poisoned his, but in a week there were just as many rats as ever. ‘The supply was inexhaustible from the rivers and quays. Poisoning was no good because of the terrific siuell, and so I took the matter in hand.

‘I thought it over and finally set a trap and caught somo rats. Then I tied & piece of wire round their necks, to which I slung a little tinkling brass bell, and then I let the bell ringers ioose in the building they had been

caugnt 12. ‘Lbey knew the runs and went to join their friends and relatives, | who of cours6 ran from the bells. The . more they ran the more ran the bell carriers, until the building was ‘hoo- doo’ in rat language and not @ rat) would enter.

‘If I could have lured back my bell carriers, all would have been well; but, familiarity breeding contempt, the rats grew accustomed to them and in a few months were back again, and as_ build- ing after building had been cleared by this trick there was not a rat in the city who did not know of the bells. ThenlI tried tarring some rats with strong smelling coal tar, which rats canuot bear and will avoid if possible, and this answered for awhile, but a fire occurred, and a rat, tar coated, ran out of the blazing building with his fur ablaze and, going into another building not in danger, set it on fire—wood gets very dry in those old buildings over there— and so an ordinance was passed prohib- iting the use of tar.

‘‘T bad made money, and I came to this country. I did well for some years, but in the depression my capital ran

short and I failed; so then I took to clearing business places of rats again and am doing quite well. The first thing is to learn the lay of the building where the rats come from. If a grain elevator is near, clear the elevator and trap those in the other places. Rats very seldom run around more than one build- ing, except as an overflow. Then, hav- ing determined that point, try the tar, then the bell, and after that these fel- lows in the cage. They are coated with luminous paint, and being exposed to the sunlight here can be taken toa

building tonight, Joosed and will fly |

through the runs, spreading fear wher- ever they go and creating 4 stam pede. If you bave ever seen luminous paint effects, you can readily understand it. The great beauty of this plan is that the rats do not live more than 24 to 48 hours after a coating with this paint, so the novelty never wears off. It is a prep- aration of lime, which I discovered for myself, and has to be newly made and mixed like a varnish. This closes the pores of the skin, and after chasing around to catch up with the flying rela- tives the rat is in a sweat, and that fin- isbes him, and they never get used to it. Will a rat sweat? Well, you cage a rat, and then let a terrier roll the cage around for a few minutes, and you will see arat as damp as if dipped intoa pail of water. I get as high as $20 a month for keeping some places in this city clear of rats, and I work several other citiesas well. The only thing lam afraid of is the society (Preveution of Cruelty to Animals), but I have nearly niade enough to start in my own busi- ness again, and then I will cease rat driving. Sell my business? No, 1 may want again in this city of ups and downs.’’—New York Sun.
