'GOSSIP CONCERNING DAKOTA. New Men Fill the Southern Conven= tion in July. AMBITIOUS FARMERS' ALLIANCE. List of the Members of the July Ses- sion—Oolonies of Settlers Gos fng In—Horse Thief Captured. The South Dakota Country. YANkTON, Dak,, May 28.—|Special to Tnur Brr.|—One familiar with Dakota politics will be struck with the large number of new names among the delegates elected to the Bouth Dakota convention, and more particu- Iarly at the conspicuous absence of tho hitn- erto prominent politicians and aspirants for office. Hon. A.J. Edgerton, the former chief justice, and now a resident of Mitchell, is about the only one of the former prominent statehood divisionists thac will have a seat in the convention of July, all the others being either from the new crop of statesmen, or gentlemen who have never acquired much political distinction, Moody, Pettigrew, Gamble, Kanouse, Campbell, and other familiar names are absent, and the body will be largely, no doubt, influenced by the supe- rior experience of Hon. A, J. Bdgerton, who will, no doubt, make many friends who will be of service to him when the senatorial fight of next winter comes on. A much more energetic fight will now be entered upon for seats in the legislature, for it is legislative votes that make senators, but the nominations will hard!, made before August or September, The Farmers’' Alli ance men are already at work, however, and Propose to take the entire legislature, all the state offices, members of congress and United States senators. They generally concede the judicial offices to the learn: profession. They are to have a three days’ convention at Huron, June 15 to 20, when and where a slate will no doubt be propared. They have the votes if they have the organizing and work- ing power, and can appropriate all the offices if they choose; but whether such a proceed- ure would conserve the best intercsts of the state is doubtful, ‘Appended is the nearly completed Jist of members of the convention : . =1 &3 Republicans.

He is a business man of influence, means and character, and will be a useful member of the body. Kdger- ton, of Yaunkton county, is young and in- telligent, and will make 8 good member. Huslil 2. Campbell was left out, and the same influences will no doubt defeat any aspirations he may have, if any, for tho leg- islature, Strong and, probably, successful combinations will be made for the defeat of Moody, Pettigrew, Edgerton and Campbell for the senatorship in the interest of new and comparatively unknown men. 1. .

Therewas no change i the plumbers’ strike yesterday, except the strike of journcymen at Lincoln. Speaking of this phase of the affair President Hussey of the masters’ assoc said that he had received a lotter from Mr. O'Neill, the Lincoln master plumber who re- turned to that city yesterday, in which he said that if he had known tnat the men contemplated taking the action they huve, he surely would have remained in Omaba; that he did not return to Lincoln through fear of a strike, and would come back to Omaha if Mr. Hussey so_desired. The other master plumber from Lincoln is still here and will remain, Mr. Hussey say that the bosses in the Capital city are well prepared for o strike, baving but little wori on hand. There is no change i thesituation at Tug Brg building, the plasterers and carpentors still remaining out. It was reported that the plasterers’ union would hold a_special meet- ing in tho afternoon and try to arrange a sot- tlement of the difficulties, but a memper of the organization ' said that this was unfoundod and that the mecting of the union would not take place until to-uight. “The journeymen plumbers persuaded two members of the trade, who came here from Chicago to go to work, to town and go to Denver. ~The journeymen claim tnat the masters ‘are about to relinquish the fight, and give as their reason for so think- ing that the bosses are using every means to induce men to work for them, *‘They have employed a stool pigeon,” said Vice . Prosi- dent Clancy, of the union, “whose duty it is when strange men come along and apply for u job, to upproach the boss and say, ‘Well, we're on our last legs and I'll go” back to work il you'll let me.” The master plumbers deny this and say that they are doing no underhand worlk. They declare, also, that they are not wenk- ening, but are as determined now as at first to hold out until the last.

The alleged poisoning case against Miss Haull, Mrs. Scott ond Miss Ellmaker was di missed by Judge Berka in polige court yes- terday ufternoon. Father Rigwe, of Creigh- ton college, upset the plans of the police by aletter to the county attorney, in which he stuted that the coffce, of which Marvin, the victim of the poisoning, had partaken just before he was taken sick, did not contain any poisoning. The report which was made public on Wednesday to the offect that the coffee had been found to contain arsonic,was a mistake, Father Rigge explained, and was caused by an anulysis made by Somo of tho studants, which was afterwards found to be incorrect, As Marvin, who made tho charges against the woman, showed no disposition to prosecute them, the case was dismissed.

Scientific men see no reason why the span of human life may not be extended to a round hundred years from the present limit of seventy to eighty years. From Adam’s time to that of Methu- seluh and Noah, men are recorded as attaining to well nigh the age of 1,000 years. The Psalmist David, howeyer, Says: “The days of our age are three- score years and ten; and tiough men be s0 strong that they come to fourscora years, yet is their strength then but abor and sorrow; so soon passeth it away, and we are gone.” This wide margin of longevity, to- gether with proper observance of men- tal, moral and physical laws, loads 1n- vestigators to believe it is possible that human life might be made to increase m length of days to a full century, at least. Moderation and regularity in eating, drinking and sleeping are conducive to longevity, and those who observe proper habits and use pure and efficacious remedies when sick, may accomplish immense labor with no apparent injury to themselves and without for shorten- ing their lives. Hon. H. H. Warner, president of the Rochester, N. Y., Chamber of Com- merce, and manufacturer of the cele- brated Warner’s Safe Cure, has devoted much time and research to this subject of longevity, and has arrived at the satisfactory conclusion that life may be prolonged” by rational and natural means. Thousauds of persons are living to-day—enjoying the blessing of per- fect hoalth and vigor—who will testify to the almost magical etlicacy of War- ner’s Safe Cure dn restoring them to physical potency and to the normal l{pu of constitution, after they had almost given up hope of life. After middle age, many begin to lose their wonted vigor of body, and there- upon give way to inertness and useless repining. Yet all such have within reach that which both renews youth and countributes to the prolongation of life, Warcer’smarvelous Safe Cure are in every drug store, and are now regarded as standard specifies throughout the civilized worid. The strong desire to attain old age— meantime retaining the virile powers of body and mind—is necessurily con- nected with the respect paid to aged persons, for ple would scarcely de- sire to be old, were the aged neglocted or regarded with mere sutferance.

Wednesday night, at the First Congrega- tional chureh Dr. Duryea delivered thejlast of a series of weekly lectures which have been of considerable interest tohis congrogation. His topic was “Attention.” The auaiences have beon of a prayer meeting order, and he said at the introduction ot his remarks that his later talks had degenerated into lectures more than merc exercises. Ina very explicit manner the speaker defined his subjoct and its results from modern research. Ho first took up the will power and what it was. “Thave a will" to doso was incorrect. “I ama will,” was right. That meant somo- thing. The words “I will” tell the whole story, That meant you possessed & power, nad control of yofirself and could guide, apply and exert what you undertook. At- tention was the direction of any power you bad in your will. 50 spoke with reforence to the body, the measure and conception of the will; the apphcation of mental force to se- cure productive development from it; the power to control the mental feclings' and sensibilities. 1f practiced long enough, the body could be made to do almost anything. The biood rushed to whatever portion of the body the mind directed, and there wus no feeling to the body unless attention was directed to it. To demonstrate this fact reverond gentloman gave several illustrations of people who had been burned, ok, received bruiso nd other in' ries, unconscious of the fact while their minds or attention was wrapped up in some- thing absorbing to thi But when their at- tention was called to the injury they would realizo it and they would be aware of it by the pain caused thereby, He gave several examples of the vigorous will-power of human beings. The secret of success in life, he said, was due to diverting attention to where it' skouid bo directed. Peoplo with troubles, sorrows and pains were not afificted so groatly if their attention were diverted from such affiictions.
