 THE MINERS
Crack Appears In Cement Foun- dalton of Boiler at Ei-
 lamar

The mill at Ellamar is not run ming full force at present owing tO an occurrence which is pug zling the workmen employed al the mine. The cement founda- tion of one of tho boilers has become cracked directly under the fireplace and whether this is due L." the earthquake or other causes is a mystery which is puzzling the men.
 Fortunately the break in the ce- mrnt was discovered in time be- fcro fire which dropped through the aperture could do damage be- yond ncccssitating the closing down of the machinery while the foundai ion was repaired. It will require few days for the cc- mcnI to harden when the boiler will again be in commission.
