LAY KAISER'S FALL TO GEM
Many Hold That Belief, In View Of III
Omen That Is Attached to
"BIaze Of Glory"

An ill-starred diamond, which last
shOne as central gem in the crown Of
Prussia, Is now credited with having
been factor in bringing about the
ruin of the HOhenzollern dynasty. II
is known as the "Blaze of Glory"
According to the tale brought here
about 1t, the diamond was given by
King Solomon to the queen of Sheba,
having been plucked from his turban
for her adornment, writes the London
correspondent of the New York World.
Curious carvings on two sides Of it are
supposed to be heraldic tokens Of the
two ancient lovers. Copies of the
gem were carried into Persia, where
they excited the greed of the nomad
king, El-Hakim II, who robbed the
queen of Sheba's grave to secure 1t
for himself. Within two weeks there
after he was slain in his palace, and
thereafter, through the centuries, rul-
ers and princes who acquired the gem
came to grief.
The margrave of Brandenburg,
whose house started the Prusslan dy-
nasty, found the gem on Jewish mer-
chant in one Of the margrave's raids
into Silesia, and seized 1t, declaring
he would place 1t in the crown Of a
great kingdom he was about to estab-
lish. The merchant was instantly slain
when he ventured to remind the captor
of the evil Influence of the diamond.
1t seems to have been handed down
the Prussian line until finally 1t
reached the one-time emperor. now In
retreat In Holland.
1t Is said that Herr ZunkelhOrn, a
learned antiquary, who had learned
the fateful history Of the gem and who
in some way had forecast that ruin
would come to Its owner between the
years 1918 and 1929, implored the
young emperor to rid himself Of it
before his coronation. and that to this
entreaty William replied:
You must understand that 1 am
crowned by the spirit of God and the
will OF my people. The HOhenzol-
lerns must endure forever. No curse
of evil can harm our dynasty"
SO he kept the gem in his crown and
tradition seems to have justified itself.
