HOW WAR MIGHT Be ENDED
London Newspaper Suggests Trying
the Effect Of Ring Of I'll Omen
on the Kaiser.

Could the king Of Spain end the war
at oncef
According to a French writer this
should be possible.
In Madrid, In q certain public
square, stands Il statue Of Our Lady
OF Almudcna; on u gold chain about
the neck Of the statue hangs a ring
richly set with diamonds. Nobody
NEEDLES with 1t. Even thieves let II
severely alone.
The reason Is plain. For the ring
is endowed with u terrible power. as
Its history proves.
Alfonso MI made a present Of 1t to
his wife, Queen Mercedes. Queen Mer.
cedes died n month later. Then the
king gave the bauble to his sister, the
lnfanta Maria. A few days afterward
the infanta died. The ring reyerting to
the royal gtvcr, 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 casket. Within
the year he was dead. 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?-TltBlts.

Mr.. Albrecht began to check up the
100 pages of testimony In the case and
declared that Mrs. Mary HerzOg, moth.

because she had sworn that Willie was
at home for a period after the accident
and Mr.. Albrecht's inquiry indicated
he was in school all the time.
Mr.. Albrecht visited the states at.

high salaried assistant decided there

Germany Must Be Defeated by Force

eminent officials ana the entente en-
bnssles saw another Teutonlc peace
offensive IN the reported speech OF
Count Czernln, the Austro- Hungarian
foreign minister, declaring recently
negotiations were near between the
Austrian ana the allied governments.
The move, evidently conceived In
Germany, they said, was made Just ms
II became certain that the German
drive Ia the west had failed of its
purpose and WAS intended 10 bring dis
cord among the allied powers and TO
cause discomfort among their popula.
lions.

Premier Clemenceau OF France hnd
advanced suggestion of peace dis.

Lorraine as stumbling block. IL was
declared here. were assigned to Gre
ate the belief that the allies desire 10
recover AlSace- Lorraine for France. Is
the only thing that stands In the wny
OF peace
Officials and members of the dIplo.
matte corps were unanimous In their
declarations that Czernln's statements
had no basis Of fact and further that
no peace suggestions coming from the
Teut0nic powers would be given cen.
slderation at this Aae, There was no
disagreement Ia the conviction thnt
Germany must be defeated by force of
arms befonc the question OF peace Is
taken up Ia any way.
Some believe that Czernin's speech
