HOW WAR MIGHT BE ENDED
London Newspaper Suggests Trying
the Effect Of Ring Of III Omen
on the Kaiser.

Could the king of Spain end the war
ut once?
According to French writer this
should be possible.
In Madrid, In certain pubic
square, stands II statue of~Our Lady
of Almudenn: on Il gold chain about
the neck of the statue hangs II ring
richly set with diamonds. Nobody
NEEDLES with 1t. Even thieves let 1t
severely alone.
The reason Is plain. For the ring
Is endowed with II terrible power. rs
It's history proves.
Alfonso MI made II present of 1t to
his wife. Queen Mercedes. Queen Mer.
ce,ies died u month later. Then the
king gave the bauble to his sister. the
lnfantn Maria. 4 few days nfterwnrd
the infanta died. The ring revcrting to
the royal giver. was next presented to
his late queens grandmother. Queen
Christina, who was dead within three
months.
After that the monarch kept the
ring In his own jewel cusket. Within
the year lie was dcatl. Ever since then
the ring has hung about the neck Of
Our Lady OF Almudena.
The French suggestion Is this: Why
shouldn't the present king of Spain
send the ring to the kaiser?-Tit-Bits.

London, March 26.-"Fighting q

taking place all day on wide fronts
south OF Peronne and south and north
OF Bapaume." said Field Marshal
Haig's report from British headQuar.

forces. and. In spite OF the gallant re-
sistance Of our troops. has forced US

giving ground only when overwhelmed
by numbers. and exacting a frightful
toll of lives for every foot Of ground
abandoned. the British line in Picardy
Is still intact While the German on
slaught gained ground at number
Of points on Monday. there was no
sisl OF disintegration in the British
forces. which at many points. espe-
cially on the northern end Of the long
line OF battle. are standing firm. The
German official report tells Of the de-
feat of the British and their retreat
via Yprcs and Sally This would
seem to indicate heavy fighting far to
the north Of the Somme battlefield.
Of which no British report has spoken.
There is, however, town called Sail
ly south Of Bapaume and eastward Of
this place is a town known as Ytres.
1t is probable that these were the
points referred to in the statement
from Berlin.
Military observers discern in the
scheme of the German attack a repe-
tition of the German "pincer" aystem
Of attack. which was used by Won
Mackenoen II Russia, Rumania and
Serbia. This attack consists OF two
attacks some distance apart, which
after progressing to some depth turn
toward each other, compelling the
forces caught between them to fall
back or be in danger OF capture.
The British have foreseen this dan
ger and have met 1t by first checking.
then forcing the northern jaw Of the
pincer southwark. while they have
dropped back on the center and have
not fallen into the German trap.
The pressure Of the defenders Of the
Somme front seems to be bending
back the whole German attack to the
south, where 1t is hoped its force will
be dissipated.
The French positions joined the
British to the south of st. Quentin, but
there have been no reports showing
that the French have fallen back from
their advanced positions. On the 9th
er hand, reports would indicate that
the original French lines now virtual
ly outflank the advancing Germans
along the Disc river.
In the meantime, the British strate.
ky seems to be devoted to the task Of
meeting the attack so that 1t is direct
ed no longer straight at the line. but is
diverted toward the Disc, where the
German advance has been most rapid.
French troops have taken over sec.
tors of the front and have released
Rritich units for work farther north.
Berlin states that Americans have also
joined in the fighting. but nothing has
as yet been officially reported on this
point.
