Holsfing Works Burned.
EUREKA, November 2Sth.-About quar-
ter to 8 o'clock last evening light was seen
in the blacksmith shop of the Wales Consoli-
dated works. Immediately thereafter vol
ume of smoke and fame issued frem the top
of the building, and the hoisting works were
soon in ashes. There was but trifing damage
done to the shaft or underground workings.
The building was 81 by ST. About so cords
of wood was also burned. The heavy tim.
bers in the building were expensive, being
principally Of Oregon pine. The loss is esti-
mated at nearly $4,000. Superintendent
Griffith says that the works will be recon-
structed at an early day. the condition of the
mine fully warranting the same. The night
shift had gone below but short time pre-
vious and had it not been for the tunnel and
windlass erected on that level, in all proba.
bility all those under ground would have suf-
fered. The cause of the fire is supposed to
have been purely accidental, having origi-
mated in the blacksmith shop, the forge hav-
ing been used during the early part of the
evening. The works were insured for only
S2,5O0.

A new product made from petroleum
is q jelly called "Vaseline," which is of
the greatest utility In medicine, phar-
macy and for toilet use. Physicians all
over the world have discovered It's great
value In the treatment of wounds, burns.
skin diseases, rheumatism, catarrh and
every ailment where remedy is need
ed, and in almost every hospital in
America and Europe this substance is
now in constant use, and is acknowl-
edged not only to be the best treatment,
but also one of the most important re-
cent additions to medicine. 1t is put
up in bottles by the Cneesbrough Man
ufacturing Co., of New York, and as a
family remedy it is without doubt the
best IN use. Its healing and pain allay-
ing qualities being superior 10 those of
any known substance, while the speedy
relief it affords for piles and chilblains
is almost magical. As an emolient,
Vaseline i5 way ahead of anything else,
as it renders the skin smooth, soft and
clear, and our lady friends will find it
not only the best, but perhaps the sole
substance which will really preserve
and restore to the complexion the hues
of youth, making the cheek like velvet
and the skin like satin. The complex
ion powders in common use, are, as a
rule, injurious to the skin and destruct-
i've Of any complexion, while Vaseline
is entirely healthful and beneficial.
There is also made "Pomade Vasel
ine," which is said to be of great benefit
to the hair, keeping it soft and glossy,
preventing and curing dandrutf, and
keeping the scalp healthful and free
from disease, and from those objection
able creatures which sometimes find a
dwelling there. Numberless instances
are cited of how by the use of this po-
made thin and failing hair has resumed
a vigorous growth. Both the pure Vas
cline and the pomade are put up in
twenty-five cent bottles and are to be
found at all first class druggists, and we
advise our readers to make trial of
this wonderful substance, and we think
they will find its claims to merit not in
the least exaggerated.

JOHN &. ROBINSON.
Death Ofthe One Man Who COuld Read
lily Decipher Horace Greeiey's ChirG-
graphy.
New York Sun.

Mr.. John G. Robinson, know as the
Lightning Proof Reader, was found dead
IN bed at his residence in Williamsburg
yesterday morning. Mr.. Robinson was
born in this city forty years ago. He
attended school in the Seventh Ward,
and entered John A. Grays printing es-
tablishment in Cliff street as "copy
boy" when thirteen years old. In 1854
he entered the Tribune proof-room. In
deciphering manuscripts he was mar
vel. He read Richard Hiidreth's, Hor-
ace Greeley's, Count Pulaskis, Gerrit
SIN this and other grabbed manuscripts
almost at a glance. When Greeley him.
self was unable to decipher one of his
own written sentences, he re'erred it TO
Mr.. Robinson, who looked at it steldily
for minute or more and made out its
meaning. In the municipal canvass of
1866 letter from Mr. Greeley, written
under the Springler House heading, was
sent to the night editor Of the Tribune.
1t enclosed an editorial article in the
same handwriting favoring the election
Of well-known Republican politician,
who was running on All independent
ticket. 1t was the night before election.
The article was put IN type. In assort-
ing the copy before reading the proof
the manuscript fell under the eyes of
Mr.. Robinson. Something about it
attracted his attention. He examined
it as paying teller would examine a
doubtful bill. THAT'S not the old mans
handwriting" he said, and was so con.
fident that it was forgery that he called
the editors attention to it, and the arti-
Gle was suppressed. So skillful was the
forgery that on the following day Mr..
Greeley said that, had he not known
different, he would have taken it to be
his own Handwriting.
Mr.. R3Linson's rapidit in reading a
proof-sheet aloud was unparalleled, and
his enunciation was perfect. Timed by
the writer, he has pronounced 696 words
in minute. This is at the rate of
Al ,760 per hour. The words were pro-
nounced in a monotonous tone of voice
without accent, and came from his lips
as though sent from the wheels of
machine. Long before the death of
Mr.. Greeley, Mr.. Robinson was given
charge of the Tribune proof-room. He
left that journal in 1875, and accepted
a similar position on the Sun.
