A Bussian Invents a Mysterious
Compound to Do to Death
AUSTRALIA'S MYRIADSOF RABBITS
Hillions in It
if His Expectations
Fulfilled.
Are
IXTEEIHENTS MADE IX ALLEGHENY
For rears past JTew South "Wales lias
been plagued by swarms of rabbits which
bare caused Incalculable damage to land
and financial loss to the country. Charles
Xaftaly, of Moscow, Russia, who is now
in Pittsburg, believes he has tolved
the problem of exterminating the pests.
Mr. Xaftaly has a destroyer of rabbits and
all gnawing animals coming under the head
of rodentia, which he says is infallible in
its deadlincss.
There have been numerous devices and
poisons used in the agricultural districts of
Australia, but none has been found abso
lutely eflective and sate. If the compound
was effective it was generally too much so.
inasmuch as horses, cattle and swine
would also be poisoned. This would entail
a greater loss to the farmer than by allow
ing the rabbits a lease of life.
Slow Death to Rabbits.
The exterminator of which Mr. Xaftaly is
ine possessor is not necessarily a poison,
and furthermore will only be eaten by ani
mals which gnaw, such as rats, squirrels,
rabbits, etc. He naturally keeps the
formula a secret, but says that the destroyer
is composed ot several drugs and one foreign
plant, the latter being its most vital in
gredient It is highly flavored, so as to
make its odor appetizing. Its cflect upon
the hapless rodent wnich nibbles at it is
peculiar. There is no agonizing death such
as is produced Dy strychnine or arsenic,
which kills its victims in a few minutes.
On the contrary, its effect is slow but sure.
"When the rodent has made a meal
of "Crissomore," it is affected gradually.
The gums and teeth are attacked first, the
latter dropping out; the gums become ir
ritated and refuse to perform their duty in
eating, even if the victim had an appetite.
In a day or so the victim is a dead rabbit.
Tests Made In Allegheny City.
The great feature of "Crissomore" is that
horses, cattle and swine will not eat it, as
has been demonstrated by numerous tests.
In this one point lies the success of the
exterminator, and so great is Mr. Kaftalv's
confidence in his discovery that be is pie
paring to go to Australia, where he nas
been in communication -nith Governmental
authorities at Sydney. He is now awaiting
the arrival of his partner, who is at pres
ent in Russia.
The Colony of Sydney has since 1887 of
fered 25,000 to any person who will suc
cessfully exterminate the rabbits of that
country without danger to other useful ani
mals. The new discovery is being used at
a few places in this city for experience
Eake and to satisfy skeptics. At Shafer's
soap factory in lower Allegheny, it has
ueeii tncu wuu eminent success.
Mr. Jfaltaly has a Urge batch of corre
spondence from the British Consul in New
York, urging him to hasten to Australia to
test his discovery. Should it be a success
the gentleman who owns the destrover says
that no 25,000 will purchase his secret
Mr. Xaftaly is a well-informed Bussian
who speaks five languages. "While in Pitts
burg he is the guest of Albert Menjou.

"It's a blessing and a boon, indeed, to the housekeepers of Pittsburg," said a lady recently, "to have a place like KAUFMANNS' Housefurnishing Goods Department,
where one is sure to find at all times everything for table and kitchen, and everything at about half the prices chargedelsewhere." And this sentiment, echoed everywhere, finds expres
sion in the large and daily increasing trade flowing to our BASEMENT SUPPLY DEPOT.
