The strange story of a Ring.

From Harper's Round Table.
1t is stated upon what appears to be
good authority that in one of the parks in
the Spanish capital city of Madrid, mag
nifcent ring hangs by silken cord about
the neck of the statue of the Maid Of AL
MEDINA, the patron saint of Madrid. This
ring, thong set with diamonds and pearls,
is nevertheless entirely unguarded. The
police pay no attention to it, nor is there
any provision made for watching 1t by
special officers, because it is not believed
that any thief, however daring, would
venture to appropriate it to his own use;
and when the history of the ring is con-
sidered 1t is hardly to be wondered at
that superstitious people prefer to give
it q wide berth. According to the story
that is told of 1t, the ring was made for
King Alfonso XII. the father of the pres
ent boy king of Spain. Alfonso present.
ed it to his cousin Mercedes on the day OF
their betrothaL How short her married
life was all know; and on her death the
king presented the ring to his grand
mother, Queen Christina Shortly after
wards Queen Christina died, and the king
gave the ring to his sister, the lnfanta
del Pillar, who died within the month fol-
lowing. The ring was then given to the
youngest daughter of the Due de Mont
pensier. In less than three months she
died. and Alfonso, by this time fearing
that there was some unlucky omen con-
nected with the bauble, put 1t away in his
the king himself died, and IT was deemed
best to put the ring away from all the
living. Hence 1t was hung about the neck
of the bronze effigy of the Maid OF Almod-
ma, where it appears to be as safe as
though surrounded by a Gordon OF pollce'
