report Of the capture Of an American
missionary by brigands. The dis
patch from Minister Leishmann re-
ports that brigands captured Miss
Stone, an American missionary, who
was travelling with woman compan-
ion, in the vilayet Of Sal0nica. The
department adds that the matter has
received the immediate and earnest

Boston, Sept. 9.-The American
Board of Foreign Missions has re-
ceived cable message from Rev. J.
H House, one of the missionaries at
Salonica, in Macedonia, saying:
"Brigands took Miss Stone and
companion between BanSko and
DjOumania."
These places are situated about 100
miles northeast of Salonica in coun-
try long familiar to the missionaries
of the American Board. Miss Ellen
H Stone is one of the tried mission
aries of the American Board, having
been in this mission since 1878. Mis-
sionaries now in Boston from Bull

tonight the chances Of his recovery
are SO greatly improved that all OF
those who have kept the patient vigil

The developments OF last night and

watchful eyes of physicians and train

signs. Five times during the day
for consultation, and each time the
verdict was unanimous that what
change had occurred was for the bet

Not the slightest premonitory symp-

grew stronger and stronger as the
day advanced, until, toward evening,
the confidence expressed in the Presi-
