MAKING WAGEs.-A number Of boys
this morning. were still engaged In
hunting for melted bullion among the

by fire, were miners, who had been re-
comfy paid Of. and who were so holly
pressed by the fire that they did not
have time to gather up their monthly
earnings, which fact accounts for the
present fertility Of the surface dig
gings Of the burnt district.
