Again have the primaries rolled around
fofthe republicans of Lancaster county nnd
In two of the wards a right merry time was
hail of It. The question of the governor
ship congressional matters and other details
of moro than local note were practically lost
hlKht of In tlio contests for legislative places ,
although a few scattering Howe men were
trying to put In an oar occasionally , llut us
the delegates voted for had been selected almost -
most entirely ou local matters there was
little chance for outakle work. Besides , tue
day was a chilly one anyway and a well
known republican worker did not seem to
think that a warm day could bn found for
llowo In the Lincoln pilmnrle * . The mem
bers of the Lincoln ' 1 miles Assembly were
out in force , with badges , dolue a good
deal of hard work in the Tenth ward
nnd keeping an eye on the Third ward.
They worn a new feature In the republican
primaries at Lincoln , and had committees at
each ward polling place.

FOOLS AND THEIR LUCK ,
Ono Pool is Bora Every Minute Jimmy
the Scotchman ,
Front a Fortune to Penny In Three
Years. Illn Numerous UpB
nnil Downs.
"Kosinos" in Chicago Herald : There
arc two sayings that are very often
quoted , namely , that the world la com
posed of two classes in this case the
"masses" are also included "fools and
knuvcs , " and the other is that it is "bet"
tor to bo born lucky than rich. " Speak
ing as a cosmopolitan , I agree wicli ,
i
neither , for , in a varied experienced I
amonsi men of all nations , 1 have found ,
that there arc vast numbers of men in J I
this small world of ours who are neither
fools'iior knafos , but honest men , and a I
combination di" Inck and riches is greatly |
to be desired , and if you must have only !
one , then , by nil means be uorn rich. On \
the otliur hand , I believe there is a great .
deal of truth in'the saying that "a fool is ,
born every minute ; " and that "out of a
population df 150.000,000 there arc
04,000,000 of what'are ' vulgarly known as
"sucKors. " '
"Sometimes ? however , yon run across
men who hit the combination of not only
being fools , but being born both lucky
and rich. Ono'-bf the most extraordinary
instances of thts-.t'dnce knew'in ' the per
son of a man \vh6rSI shall cull "Jimmy"
for short. Jimmy's adventures are cor-
taiuly worthv of being recorded , as ho
was one of tile biggest fools , and , at the
same time , the luciucstman I over knew.
Jimmy was a Scotchman , although ho
lived mostly in London , but he had not
one single characteristic of the proverbial
close-listed "cannio" Scot. When ho
came of age ho succeeded to a fortune of
$500,000 , and three years afterward ho
hadn't a cent. Ho liad spent every penny
of it , but how , no one know , aa ho .didn't
gamble , and apparently did not live
more extravagantly than his incoma
warranted , and , what was more curious
still , a great part of his fortune went
into the pockets of the Jew money
lenders. What ho had done with it'l
don't believe Jimmy himself know , but it
was gone. In Lpn'don , however , there is
not the same intimate knowledge of
other pooplo's aflairs as there is in this
country , and a man can live there a long
tune on the interest of his debts , aim
while Jimmy was performing this by no
means diflicult operation he had the first
of these strokes of good luck you road
about , but seldom meet. An old lady
cousin whom he hadn't scon since lie was
a child in pinafores died and left him a
fqrtuno larger ilian the one lie had spent.
Jimmy \viu now on his legs again , anil
at once dnvolopcd a great taste for
travel. There was hardly a corner of the
civilized globe ttiat ho did not
visit , ana in the course of
u few years ho had traveled
seven t lines round the world. lie used
to start oil'on a trip from London and
sou how far ho could go and how much
ho could sco in n given timo. I was
traveling myself a good doai at the time ,
and I used to run across Jimmy in the
most unexpected way. Once going up
the big pyramid in kgppt I had arrived
within a couple Wonka of the top. and
the rest of the party with tiio liquid * *
were govern ! ' blocks below. The heat
waH awful and my thirst was corres
pondingly groat. Gottinj ; tip the pyra
mids is no joko. What are facetiously
termed "stops" nro really huge blocks
of stone or concrete , and ono Arab grabs
you by the hand while another son of the
desert shoves behind. The Arabs rikip up
and down like goats , but for anybody
else the work la awful. Well , on tills oc
casion , as I have remarked , I had arrived
within a few blocks of the top , and then
positively refused to go another Block
without something to drink. 1 was
shouting out to my friends below to
hurry up with tho'Uinss" when I heard a
voice above ma saying , "Como along
up here , old man ; 1'vo got the best Bass
you over drank , " and looking
up to my surprjsp , I saw Jimmy's
face grinning down on mo. Ho had
como up with rinothor party on the other
wide of the pyramid. Jimmy's "Unas"
did tasU ) good thaf'day , and the top of
the big pyramid is not the only out of the
way place where I liavo blessed tlio names
of liiuu and Allsopp. I had two other
amusing incidents'of mooting Jimmy on
his travels. One was at Malta. I was
visiting the curious old catacomb in that
island , where all tbo bodies of the iloiul
and gonu monks , arnkoptin a mummitled
condition.Thorp Uipy aro.all labelled and
stuck up against the wall , with their
inoldering cowls , out of which peer tlioir
grinning parchment faces , I was "moon
ing" along when who should I run up
against but Jimmy. Ono great charac
teristic of Jimmy was that ho never ex
pressed surprise. Ho met mo this ximu
as ho had done on the pyramid just as
calmly as if wo had mot at bnmkfust.
Ul ho said was , "How ore you old man *
'doing' the monks , I see the atmosphere
is awful ; lot's got out of hero and have a
drink1 and thtm ho relapsed into silence.
On another occasion it was on the
Island of Ceylon in the Indian OCPUII. I
was traveling from Point do ( Jallo to
Colombo by mail coach and arrived at a
"rebt house , " or government hotel , fa
mous for its oysters. In answer to our
demand for oysters the real house keeper
informed us that ho was sorry' , but ho
was "short" on oysters and all ho had
were already bespoke by two guntjemun
who wore asleep on the veranda. I wont
out to the veranda in the hope of being
able to do a "deal" for a share in the
oysters , when who should I see sound
asleep in a long arm chair , his foot in the
air , and Ins mnutii wide open , "tly catch
ing,1' but my old friend Jimmy * I wont
softly back to the bungalow ami soon re
turned with one of Jimmy's oysters on a
fork , and dropped it neatly into his onen
mouth. Ho awoke with a splutter , but
instead ot betraying any surprise at sue
ing mo there , ho quietly remarked
"What the shuol are you doing with my
oysters ! " It is needless to say that I did
got a share of Jimmy's oysters. 1 heard
of him occasionally , uud from all
accounts ho was "going the
pace" pretty hard. Ono day I
was walking down 'Whitehall , and
passing the mounted Horse ( Juards on
sentry duty there , so well known to all
visitors to London , the face of one of the
sentries seemed strangely familiar. The
helmet was well down over his eyes , but
the long , fair mustache reminded me of
Jimmy. I passed and rcpassed , but J ho
sentry looked straight ahead and sat his
horse as if carved out of stone. At last I
was certain it was Jimmy , and going up
to him said , "Great Scott Jimmy , what
arc. you doing hove ! " "Hush , my dear
fellow , " ho replied , ' 'never speak to the
man at the whrol. ' "Very well , " I said ,
"but como and dine with mo to-night. "
Jlc agreed to this , and the same evening
dined with mo in "mufti , " and related
adventures that were good enough for a
three volume novel. Tie again lost every
oent ho had. Tic had dropped something
like scvonty-llvo thousand in Wall street
. ( luring a visit to this country , and a good
round sum at the lovely game of poker ;
belli' ' * twice bs.iten ou four aces by
straight flush ! lie had tried to gel it
back on the English turf , but the cry of
"the favorites beat" sounded so often in
his ears , when his money was
on the favorite , that ho had at
last como to the end of his
tetlior. Ho had said nothingto his friends ,
but quietly enlisted in the "gentleman's
troop" of the royal horse guards , and as
ho was a man of ever six feet in height
and magnificent physique , ho made a
first-rate guardsman. But Jimmv was
perfectly confident that his bad luck was
only temporary , and that he would turn
up trumps again. And ho did. About
to years after this 1 was staying with a
friend at Malahlde , near Dublin , when
ono evening a fine schooner yacht sailed
into the bay , and a boat came on shore
bearing a letter addressed to me. The
owner ot the yacht proved to be my old
friend Jimmy , who had once more turned
up trumps , and was now a baronet with
an income of $50,000 a year. An uncle
and two cousins had conveniently got out
of the way and ho had succeeded to every
thing. Jimmy is still alive and enjoying
his fortune , and , from all I hear , lie will
keen it this time , or rather his wife will
tor him , for I am perfectly certain he
could not do so himself. If ho roads
these lines 1 hope ho will excuse me for
saying so.
llancllt of a Sponge Until.
\yasliinjrton Star : A nromiuont nliy-
sicmn , speaking of special batiis and their
uses , mentions the sponge bath , the
form of bathing where the water is
applied to the surface through the
medium of cloth or sponge , no part of
the body being plunged into the water.
Ho says the practice of systematic , dally
sponge bathing is one giving untold
benefits to the followers. Let
a person not ever strong , subject to
frequent colds from slight exposure ,
the victim of chronic catarrh , sere
throats , etc. , begin the practice of taking
ft sponge batli ovorymorning , commenc
ing with tepid water in a warm room
( not hot ) , and following the sponging
with a. friction that , will produce a warm
glow over the skin nnd then
take live minutes' brisk walk
in the onon air. Sco if you do
not , return with a good appetite for break
fast. After having used tepid water for
a few mornings lower the temporatore of
the bath until cold water can bo borne
with impunity.
The daily cold sponging of a sensitive
throat or lungs will often resultr most
satisfactorily if per.sistcntly and con
scientiously followed. The cold , auto-
breakfast sponge-bath should , however ,
bo avoided by the weak portion and thn
ones whoso lungs are already diseased ,
as the reaction following might not bo
strong enough to prevent colds which
might hasten fatal results. Anothnr nso
of the cold bath is to induce sleep , by
calling the blood to the surfano ; the con
gested brain is relieved and sloop comes
in consoquonco. It is on this principle
the winding of a leg in a cold wet cloth
proves so efficacious in provoking sloop.

Season.
NKW To UK , Sept. 15. [ Correspond
ence of the HUE. ] To marry n coachman ,
as Schilling must acknowledge , is a
crime , to desert him , a greater one. butte
to wear a coachman's coatis thought one
of the prettiest things a young lady can
do. It must bo of colored cloth , chielly
tan brown , dark or gray blue , lilting
closely , long , double breasted and with
turn ever collar. Those will bo extremely
popular this fall and by means of heavier
linings may be worn all winter. Other
favorite jackets will bo also tight fitting
nnd double breasted , but short and of
fancy cloths , diagonal , chevron , boucle
or simulated braid cloth , usually colored.
The small velvet , plush and uoadod man
tles introduced last spring , will bo stylish
enough this season and new ones are
made in the same way. For winter wear ,
thick wool cloth with boavcr back , dis
plays the new. iduas prominent in wool
for costumes , such as simulated braids ,
chevron pattcrus , otc. colors of course
corrospdnding.
WOOLS
are not. only imported in great quanti
ties , but in very noticeable novelty of
stylo. Chevron wools are such as show
diagonal weaving in all sizes , so sot
about as to produce singular results.
Very broad ( inch wide ) diagonal stripes
traverse half u breadthmooting obliquely
in the centre , and a feature in making up
will bo the placing of this centre in the
centre of backs , in panels , etc. From
such extremes there all gradations and
variationsin chevron stripes , many boiug
very fine and set about in fancy squares
or us a diversifying element in stripes.
Ordinary diagonals in consequence como
largely to the front , as likewise serges.
The hair line striped wools of last spring
reapuear this fall in heavier weight aud
increased variety of colorings , and
are additionally stylish by the
fine wool between. Camel's-hair
cloth is rendered gay by narrow
stripes , from which bright colored hairs
extend in porcupine quill style ; other
wools display combinations of chevron
weaving , bouretto and boucle loops , as
where a circle or square of chevron is
surrounded by bousotto dots , from which
depend loops. Another marked feature
in wools are the simulated braid patterns.
This is a unique idea , and has th ofl'cct
of open work braid trimmings in greater
orviss number , set on the goods , but
which , however , are woven in as part
and parcel. Ono had best give free
range to fancy here since it would bo
impossible'to do jtntico to the many dif
ferent styles and widths , whllo unions of
como in at timosasacomplotiiigolomont.
For the most part , the sovonil features in
wools just mentioned , appear separately ,
but again they are united in fanciful
ways. The mixture of
mVKUSK IfAUItlCS
in the sumo piece , as time goes on , grows
moro apparent , but almost without ex
ception in atripes wliieh taku the phicn of
brocades. Stress has already boon laid
on tins-idea , but it is so prominent that
Homo repetition is not amiss , as well also
its mentlon'of'quito now examples where
plush is arranged in fancy ball patterns
forming stripcH on wool. Very line wool
stripes in rich oriental hues alternate
with plush or velvet and there are silken
passementerie cords woven in Ilino wool
that have the appearance of being sot on
as trimmings. Black and dark colored
beads swell the list of variety-giving
fancies ; quite line and iisiiallyalUirnatiug
in rows with KOIIIO of the striped patterns
just mentioned , although thorn are ex
pensive wools where bead work i sot
about in niuUiuinnticnl or interlacing designs -
signs to the exclusion of lloral
figures. Apart fro.n unions of wool
and velvet , In Ilia Hitmo piece , special
style will attach"to costumes of plain
wool inndo up with plain velvet. Hero ,
the corsage and drapery will bo of the
wool with underskirt of velvet and Nom <
times pcrh.ips velvet Hleeves. Wool vel
vets -o among now importations and
are combined with prixo stripes or bands
hi't on. There M always however , a largo
class of conservative people who turn
away from pronounced novelties nnd for
such thurti are the customary importa
tions of plain cashmeres , cloths , silks and
velvets. Fashionably madu , such time
honored fabrics have quite us much prog-
tigo as anything with the advantage of
bolng always warm nnd capable tlioro-
fore of .being remade upon occasion ,
Mir.i.iNKir. :
Black beads sot on wire with colored
velvet showing up from below in other
words , beaded bonnets lined with velvet ,
will bo very fu&hionublo , being tin of- )
shoot from the openwork jut bouueU of
the summer. KraldM felts are also a
consequence of summer styles rather
than anything original , aud yet in some
sense they are so , since foil arranged in
braid patterns is really novel. Km.
broulnred velvet bonnets are also ex
tremely pretty novelties In self colored
hilkor silver threading * . Nothing can
be more chaste thnn this silver em
broidery on black or dark colored velvet ,
and really suitable by its rich moderation
for all age ; not too conspicuous for the
elderly , dressy for the middle aged , nor
inappropriate for the youthful. Silver
finds its way too , among the charming
silk embroidered bonnets , and i.s Lore ,
likewisewith modest gleaming , no small
addition.- Extremely beautiful opera
bonnets will bo mailo of white or palo
colored velvet embroidered in silk of
gay , natural colors , whllo as a novelty
moro suitable for day , however , arc linn
cashmere bonnets covered with oriental
handiwork.
SKrTKMllF.ll NOTES , .
Jerseys take their place as an institu
tion and are brought out not only in ex-
aet keeping with dross wntaU , as to cut
and manner of ornamentation , but now
have whalebones. Kuibosscd Jersey cloth
is a handsome novelty , nnd is cither
ready made up or sold by the yard. Poiut
d' esprit net promises to ho in high vogue
for flounces , edgings , insertion and
fronts. Embroidery is moro or less rich ,
chiefly in flower designs and the edges
are scalloped. IHack , dark fashionable
colors and evening shades , chiefly thn
latter , are noticeable.
