,JEWELER is MULCTED
G. G. BERGH ROBBED BY SOME
CLEVER SWINDLERS WITH
CHEAP RINGS
POLICE ARE MAKING A TRIAL
They Have Description of the
Men Suspected and Are Endeav-
Oring to Protect Other jewelers.
Against the Operations of the
Men, Who Are Evidently Prac-
ticed Hands.

The ''blg mitt" man has turned an
other clever trick, and this time G. 9.
Rergh, the jeweler at 81 East Seventh
street. is the victim.
A few days ago two we'll dressed men
entered Berghs store during his alb
sence, and asked the clerk to show
them some plain gold wedding rings.
The clerk brought out a tray Of rings
which the men carefully inspected, but
did not invest, stating that they would
return again.
Saturday Mr.. Bergh had occasion to
look over the tray and found, to his as
constituent, that six of the rings were
cheap gold-piated affairs.
Chief Of Detectives Schweitzer was
notified, and after questioning the clerk
easily saw into the mystery. It Is an
old game, this changing of poor rings
for genuine gold ones, and was nicely
worked by the two strangers. While
they were inspecting the rings they
slipped six Of the store rings into their
pockets and replaced them with cheap
limitations.
Detective Murnane was sent out to
warn ali of the local jewelers. to be
on the lookout for the two swindlers.
Mr.. Bergh was robbed once before
and this incident brings back the dar-
ing robbery and dramatic history of the
affair. In 1892 William Earl, alias
Dosky, smashed a plate glass window
in front Of Mr.. Berghs store, at Sew
enth and Cedar, and grabbed a tray OF
diamond rings. Earl got away and
by pretending to be drunk that night
got himself sentenced to the workhouse
where, however he was traced by the
detectives. Earl was convicted an(
sent to the Saltwater penitentiary. HI
committed suicide in the prison Marcl
s, 1892.
The diamonds belonging to Mr.. Bergi
were never recovered. Earl claimed
he had planted them behind the Mer
chants hotel, but, although the grounC
was carefully gone over, the gems wer
never again seen.

THE SKATER scovEL INCL
DENT.

Sylvester Scovel, correspondent of
the New York World, and who has at
tanned more or less notoriety, has been
in Cuba for his paper. At the cere-
monies attending the capitulation of
Santiago he most grossly insuited Cen
eral Shafter. The facts in the case are
related in the New York Herald dis
patches, as follows:
The capitulation (of the city, was
conducted gracefully on both sides.
The only incident which married the
! day was occasioned by the conduct of
/ Sylvester Scovei, a correspondent.
When the time came to raise the flag,
Scovel attempted TO make his way TO
the roof of the palace, with the inten-
tion of participating in some way in
the ceremony. He was ordered down
by the guard. Immediately after the
ceremony ScOvel pushed his way to
General Shafter and slapped the gem
erals face. He was promptly arrested
and confined.
Other correspondents tell substan-
TALLY the same story about what hap
pened.
Had ScoveI slapped some subaltern
or d private soldier in that manner he
would have been killed on the spot, in
all probability; but General Shafter, in
command of the American troops,
could not kill him. The scoundrel SEQ
vel may not realize it, but when he
slapped General Shafter he insulted
the whole American people. Had a
soldier done what he did. he would
have been led out and shot like dog;
and he would have deserved his fate.
Had the incident occurred in any Eu-
ropean army. his punishment would
have been death.
What viii be the punishment of this
man? In the civil law his offense is
nothing but an assault. One thing is
certain; he should not be permitted to
accompany the American army in any
capacity, and if he attempts to intrude
himself into any camp he should be
literally kicked out. He has disgraced
the profession to which he belongs,
and has wantonly insulted General
Shafter and the people whom he rep
resents. No punishment could be too
severe for him, scarcely death itself.

IT REFUSES TO SEE.

The Provo Enquirer is foxy. 1t is
not only radical administration organ,
but an adroit champion of the gold
standard, as we'll.
On the dag that the Democrats of
Illinois declared for Bryan and the
Chicago platform, it declared that free
silver was losing ground among the
Democrats.
When the Indiana Democracy nomi-
mated a SILVER ticket on a silver plat
form, the Enquirer said that eastern
Democrats were repudiating the Chi
cago cDlvention.
AT the time the Vermont Democratic
convention was reaffirming allegiance
to silver the Enquirer was trying to
convince its readers that silver was a
lost cause.
The Maine Democrats, as far east
as it is possible to go, are making
a stronger fight than ever for the free
coinage. of silver. But the ENQUIRER.
whose wish is father to the thought,
sticks to its oft refuted statement that
the silver sentiment is waning
Ignoring every other convention held
this year. it calls attention to the one
at Altoona, Pennsylvania, where the
Chicago platform was not openly en-
dorsed, out of Difference to the wishes
of Republicans who desire to support
the Democratic state ticket this fall
in order to rebuke Quay. II claims
that Organism was therefore re-
pudiated in Pennsylvania, although in
the next breath the Enquirer admits
that the Bryan delegates controlled the
convention almost two to one, ex-
pressed their confidence in the great
silver champion, and named a silver
ticket throughout
Now the goldbugs, themselves. are
a little mixed in their account OF that
convention. The Enquirer claims that
the Chicago platform was repudiated.
The Associated Press. from which The
Herald received its report of that con-
vention, said that Bryan was cheered,
that his friends were in control. but
that the convention voted to restrict

its platform to state issues, for the
sake, as has already been explained,
of Pennsylvania Republicans who are
Disguised with the bribers and boodless
at the head of the Republican party.
The Mail and Express said that the
silver sentiment prevailed in the
Pennsylvania convention, that silver
men were nominated. and that open
reference to the Chicago convention
was omitted upon the advice of the sill
yer leaders, themselves.
The Herald noted the discrepancy
between these variations of alleged
fact. and merely suggested that gold
bug contemporaries should get to-
gether apd agree upon some statement,
as their contradictions of each other
were unbecoming.
1t will be amusing. little later on,
when the Republicans OF Utah meet in
state convention. to watch the En-
quirer's reversal of its present atti-
tude, as it undertakes TO explain why
all reference 10 the single gold stand
ard is omitted from the platform. 1t
will be interesting to see whether the
Enquirer will construe such action as
a reputation of the administration. or
an endorsement of the men who walked
out of the st. Louis convention.

SCANDINAVIAN LANGUAGES.

In a communication received from
Mr.. Otto Rydman concerning the
Scandinavian languages he says:
There is no living language known
by the name the Scandinavian Ian
guage.' There are three distinct Scan
dinavian languages namely, the
Swedish, the Dano-Norwegian and the
Icelan6ic; the last named being nearly
the same as the old Morse or Scandi-
navian tongue, which. in ancient times,
was commonly spoken in northern
parts of Europe"
While Mr.. Rydman is an authority
with whom it were not wise to dispute
on matters Scandinavian, it must strike
the average reader as peculiar that a
plural cannot be understood to contain
two or more singulars; in other words,
that the term Scandinavian Ian
guages" is proper, While one may not
speak of a Scandinavian as speaking
the Scandinavian language
1t would not do to say that a Swede,
who knows nothing of the Morse and
Danish tongues, speaks the Scandi-
navian languages" for he doesn't. He
speaks but one. He is a Scandinavian,
and speaks a Scandinavian language.
In different parts of Germany differ
ent dialects are spoken, almost as diff
ferent as Spanish from Italian. But
the people are all German and speak
the German language.
This is the way the average man will
view the matter, although Mr.. Rydman
is technically correct, no doubt.
His letter continues:
The Swedish language, although
easily recognized as having originated
from the same source as the Dano-
Norwegian language, is different, not
only in pronunciation, but in orthog-
raphy, vocabulary and construction,
from the latter. Many words, appear
ing closely Identical, have a different
meaning in these two languages, and
constitute means of many ludicrous
Misunderstanding between persons
who are not familiar with the other
tongue.
To call either Swedish, Icelandic or
DanO-NOrwegian the Scandinavian
language" is as bad as it would be to
name either French, Spanish or Italian
the Latin language" and to intelli-
gent Scandinavians-who not for po-
litical or other reasons, wish the ex-
preston to be in vogue-it sounds al
most as ridiculous as if somebody, per-
adventure, should speak of the Eu-
ropean language.
The DanO-Norwegian language is
spoken in Norway, Denmark and parts
OF the German province Schleswig-
Holstein.
The Swedish language is spoken in
Sweden and parts Of Finland.
An extensive literature is published
in the three Scandinavian languages,
and, according to statistics, there is
a very small percentage of illiterate
people in either of those countries.

TWO OF A KIND.

The Butte Inter- Mountain is trying
to bring about fusion between Demo-
Gratis and silver Republicans in Mon
tana. Owing to the fact that the Inter-
Mountain, like one of our Utah con-
emporaries-which, by the way,
quotes extensively from the Butte pa
per-is an uncertain quantity on the
financial question, and the further fact
that its attitude is hostile rather than
friendly, the Democrats are not avail
ing themselves of its invitation.
Inasmuch as the Utah contemporary
in question reproduces the Butte fusion
organs anti-Democratic TRADES, the
following from the Butte Miner may
be read with interest:
Having admitted where it stood be-
fore the Democratic party made silver
the paramount issue in national poll
tics, the Inter Mountain may now turn
its attention to the future of that fac
ton of the Republican party it repre-
sents, and ask the Anaconda Standard
where It got authority for the following
statement:
we have the silver Republicans.
their organization including a good
body of men, who, in view of patronage
and their belief that the war is going
to make McKinleyism permanent, are
itching to desert silver and strike
hands with the gold Republicans, in
the firm belief that the combine can
carry Montana"
The statement has gone unchallenged
by the Inter Mountain since Friday
last. Is the Inter Mountains silence
to be construed into admission that the
good body of men" are going to desert
silver unless the local representa-
tives' are bought of by office?

Mr.. ". H. Mills. the literary genius
Of the Southern Pacific Railway COM
pany, says:
The attitude assumed by some of the
corporations allied with those in east
ern states in the payment of the war
tax is one Of the things which keeps
alive a feeling of dislike among the
people for corporations. At a time
when every man is giving his mite to
support the United States in the war
with Spain, and thousands of men are
volunteering their lives in the same
cause, the express companies insolently
refuse to bear their share OF the bur
dens. They insist, in fact, that they
shall be exempt from any tax imposed
upon the people in consequence of the
war.
How moral, how beautiful, how pa
triotic are these sentiments, How
truly Pecksnifian they arel The
Southern Pacific railway would not
wrong the government of the United
States out of a cent, but if it got
good chance at twenty or thirty mill
lion dollars-wea, it might be differ
ent.
