The Rentz-Santley Novelty Company.

The posters of the Rentz-Santley Novelty
company that have been displayed around
the city for the past few days rather ''queer-
ed the act" and as consequence the Opera
House was we'll filled last evening with an
audience almost exclusively masculine. One
solitary woman was tucked away in corner
of the gallery, and there are rumors that
another one had slowed herself away some
where in the audience. The men, of course,
expected to see what is known as a cloud"
show. They were, however, disappointed, as
there was nothing of the sort from beginning
to end. The first part consisted of the
usual musical selections of all minstrtl per
formances, the only difference being that the
SEMI circle was composed of women instead
of men-women dressed becemingly and de-
porting themselves with modesty. The
voices were all fresh and good,
and the selections were we'll rem
dered. The end men, Lew Benedict and
Charles Wilson, however, have sadly degen-
Grated since the days when they were prime
favorites of the bones and tambo. Mabel
Santley, a we'll built specimen of femininity,
danced in very artistic manner, and was
followed by an amusing sketch introducing
Frank Bennett and Nellie Richards in change
characters. Minnie Kent's rope and hoop
dancing was excellent. The burlesque on
"Pinafore'' was somewhat dizzy, but con-
tanned few good hits provocative of laugh
ter. In this the prurient received the only
opportunity of the evening to examine the
female form divine, the crew being composed
of that gender respondent in flesh colored
tights and-little else.
A matinee for ladies will be given this af-
ternoon, and in the evening there will be an
entire change of programme. In every re-
spect the entertainment is as chaste as any
first-class variety performance.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-Csbles lower but market
advanced in New York. Our market opened
quiet and firm, ranging around $1.3l for Feb
ruary, until the first indications of weaker
eastern news. The local traders are disposed
to hammer all options that the clique are sup
posed not to be interested in, so its difficult to
give correct quotations on options outside the
February kind. They widen or bring together
as the whim takes possession of them, and they
all go in lump. March and May seems to be
their favorite deal to furnish the clique with,
but they passively take it all, and don't seem
to worry much. On the curb it was 81. 3O7s fol-

CASUALTIES AND CRIMES.
DEFALCATIoN AND DEATH.

DEFALoATIoN AND DEATH.
New York, Jan. 9.-The defalcation and
death of Bogert, for eighteen years treasurer
of the produce exchange, is the sensation to-
day in financial circles. Bogert kept his own
bank account and that of the exchange at
the Merchants Exchange National bank.
Boeert's private account with the bank had
not averaged more than 81, 900, and the pro-
duce exchange account not more than 3d.
600, while of late the latter had not been
more than few hundred dollars.
The story which led him to his self-de-
struction is told quickly enough. He had
been specializing in grain, and was in posi-
ton, as he supposed, to get inside lnforma-
ton. When wheat fell, few days ago,
however, he was caught and placed in a
difficult corner. It was probably then that
he took the money of tie Produce exchange;
and, though there is reason to suppose that
he had used the same money before, and
that it stood to his personal credit and not
to the credit of the exchange at all, although
it was, of course, made by his reports to ap-
pear so.
A MANIACAL AFFAIR.
GALVESTON, Jan "a Neps special from
Cambridge says M. A. Seay, man supposed
to be insane, left the residence of J. N. Ladd,
ten miles east of here, and shot Ladd dead
without the least provocation. He then
went to Samuel Tubbs' house and shot him
five times. Tubbs is not expected to live.
Seay then went to Logan's farm and in
formed Logan what he had done, and before
he could be prevented he placed pistol to
his own head and blew out his brains.
COMPLETELY CARVED.
OTTAWA. Jan. 9.-At Manuvaki on Gait
neau river a man named Brisbain quarrelled
with his partner and literally chopped him to
pieces. The murderer escaped.
COLLISION WITH RAILROAD TRAIN.
STANFORD, Conn, Jan. st. B. Richards,
father of Prof. Richards, of Yale college,
was killed to-day at the depot, by Harlem
railroad train. The coachman was severely
cut and the carriage was demolished. A
young lady in the coach was uniniured.
DUST FAN EXPLOSION FIRE.
MILWAUKEE, Jan. 9.-The buildings used
as the wood department of Mitchell, Lewis
g. Co.'s extensive wagon mandatory at Ra-
cine, was totally destroyed by fire at an
early hour this morning. Loss estimated at

vestigate the attempted bribery OF members
A committee of fifteen was appointed on
gubernatorial votes.
There was less than quorum IN the
house at any time, and the session dragged,
several members sending for their lunch.
The house remained in continuous session,
although but few members were in their
seats.
The House continued in session all the af-
ternoon waiting for quorum No business
was transacted. About forty members were
present conversing in groups, with anxiety
depicted on their countenauces. Mr.. Tai
bot, speaker, Col. VIM. Dickey, Mr.. w.
Perry, of Camden, Mr.. Plaisted, and other
leaders, had frequent sessions of consalta-
ton, and appeared extremely anxious at the
situation of affairs. Fears seemed to be e1-
pressed, and grave apprehensions enter
tanned, that the Republicans we're about to
swoop down upon them and capture the gov
eminent. A committee was appointed to
wait on Mai. Gen. Chamberlain in regard to
the condition of affairs. They inquired if
he would use his power to protect the two
Use but that he would do his duty as acting
governor and communicative chief. No one
doubts the House was evidently anxious to
get quorum. The Fusionists again sent
for Mr.. Voler, of Pennington, who has fire.
auently refused to take his certificate. 1t
was reported the session was prolonged in
waiting for Voler, but he failed to come, and
at quarter to the House adjourned with
out transacting the least item of business
during the afternoon.
While the Fusionists leaders are doing
their best to rally their forces by constant
caucuses and personal appeals, it is the gen.
eral opinion that their forces are weakening,
and if it shall prove to be the plan of the
Republicans to tire their opponents out and
make them give up from sheer exhaustion,
the early developments seem to argue sue
cess.

The speaker did not want them to send an
armed expedition over to Ireland. "a voice,
That's what We would like). He knew they
would like it very much, and the wish was
not an unnatural one. They simply wanted
help, so as to prevent their poor
people from being starved to death.
While lending their aid they would have the
satisfaction of feeling that they were aiding
in breaking down the system which has
proved disgrace to Ireland. In one way or
another Irish people would insist in having
the land of Ireland for themselves.
In conclusion he said he felt confident that
the time was very near at hand when they
would strike fatal blow to the land system
of Ireland.
The mayor next introduced John Dillon,
who spoke at length of the condition of the
unfortunate people of Ireland. Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher, who entered while Mr..
Dillon was speaking, was loudly applauded.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Dillon's speech Mr..
Beecher was introduced. He said he could
not allow this opportunity to pass without
saving something for the unfortunate peo-
ole who were in distress while there were
prairie lands enough in America to raise
subsistence enough for Ireland and all other
countries. Some said that we must
stop dealing with charity, but the man that
saws that is no man. Men who titled land
should be owners of it, and where they were
not land owners were holding them by their
threats. Father Hickey followed Beeeher
and at the conclusion of his address the
meeting adjourned.

GREENBACKERs.
NATIONAL CONVENTION CALLED.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-The Greenback
conference, to-day, fixed upon June 9th as
the time and Chicago as the place for hold
ing the national convention. The follow
ing is the preamble and call adopted:
We have reached crisis in our country
history and an epoch in human affairs. Our
government, which was destined for the
political veal of mankind, has passed under
the control of bankers, stock jobbers, land
grabbers and professional politicians, to the
exclusion of those whose labor produces its
wealth and pays its taxes. The constitu-
tional rights of the people are denied OF
usurped by the money power. The fruits OF
productive enterprise are arrested by cor.
porate monopolies.
The large share of accumulated wealth and
un1eyeloped resources of the nation are con-
centrated in the hands of a small class, and
all interest in the stability of our institutions
on the part of large majority of voters is
dissipated.
Usurious interests and enforced idleness
have filed the land with pauperism, crime
and misery. The air is ominous with MUIR
murs of discomfort.
The very foundations of popular govern
ment are questioned and assailed, and the
republic itself is in imminent peril.
The people of the District of Columbia
containing a population of 100000 souls,
have been by act of Congress wholly disfran.
chised, and laws have been enacted in the
various States to curtail the sacred right Of
suffrage.
Deeply impressed by the gravity of this
crisis, we cheerfully sacrifice all minor diff
ferences and unite for the purpose of restor-
| ing the control of the government to the
whole people through the representa-
tives chosen by them, uninf1uenced by
bribery, intimidation or sectional
hate, recovering their complete sovereignty
over their elections, currency, lands and lines
of internal communication, and finally, to
embody in law and enforce the right of each
laborer to the results of his toll, that con.
vention of the national Greenback-L abo,
party be held at Chicago, ILL.,, Wednesday, the
9th of June, 1880, and that the basis of rep
| resentation shall be from each State foul
delegates and four alternates at large, and
two delegates and two alternates from each
congressional district, and two delegates and
| two alternates from each territory and the
District of Columbia.

A Man Knocked Down and Relieved Of 81 i
and Watch.
A bold and daring highway robbery was
committed yesterday afternoon in the vicini-
ty of the old stock yard, above Banholzer's
brewery. The victim was John Nusbaum.
and the particulars as related by him are as
follows: He came to st. Paul from Reserve
township two weeks ago and put up at the
Wagner house, No. 108 st. Peter street
Yesterday morning two men came to the
saloon connected with the house, and COM
mencing conversation with him offered to
get him place to 60 to work. He left I'M
mediately after dinner with them and start
ed out upon the railroad track to the place
designated by them. Ashort distance above
Banholzer's brewery the men assaulted and
knocked him down and robbed him of $4l
in cash and silver watch and chain valued
at 500.
Nusbaum came to police headquarters
with his face covered with blood about
O'Clock and told his story. Officers Murphy
Mitchell and Mcmahon were sent out to look
for the men, but could find no traces of
them.
From the description given the men are
known to be John Hennessy and Jerry
Clancy, who were discharged from Jail here
few days ago.
CAUGHT.
Last evening about o'clock Jerry Clancy
entered the police station and asked fol
lodgings. Nusbaum, who was present, at
once identified him as one of the two who
robbed him, and Jerry squealed. He said
after getting the property Hennesy ran away
without dividing up the spoils, and being
dead broke, he had to come to the station
for the night. About the same time
CLANCY appeared at the station
Officer Rouleau arrested Hennessy at the cor
ner of Sixth and jackson streets. Hennessy
was arrayed in new suit of clothes, from
top to toe, which he bought at Haas, the tail
or, this afternoon with part of the money.
When searched, he had only small sum OF
money on his person, and stated that he gave
Clancy the watch and chain and 800 in mon
ey. The twain will be brought before Judge
Flint this morning, to answer to charge of
highway robbery.

Farms In Traverse County.

Traverse county. Minnesota, is rapidly be-
coming famous as one of the best sections of
this very productive State. Population is
increasing, but there is no better opportunity
for settlement than is here offered. One
gentleman, Mr.. G. L. Taylor, of Maiden
Rock, Wis, owns $4,000 acres of land in this
county which he will divide up to suit pur-
chasers, giving them large or small tracts, as
they may wish. 1t is rare opportunity to
procure farm, as the terms are such as to
put it in the reach of anyone, and the land is
equal to any in the State.
