TWENTY MEN FOR AVOCA. NO WORK AT HIKURANGL '?! (By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.)' WHANGAREI, Sunday. A syndicate of coal miners under Mr. T. Bur-ley, who holds an underviewer'ts certificate, allowing for the employment of 200 men, has secured the mineral rights over 840 acres of land at Avoca. near Tangawahine.
