Russian teachers, the rank and file OF

In Macedonia and Albania there are
no schools at all save those organized
under the care OF the American board
At Salonica Samokov, Monastir, Kort-
cha, Bansko and Philopopolis are
larger schools under the care Of the
Americans, while the native converts
have taken up the work establishing
smaller schools at Drama, Prishtnia
Mehomia, Banya, Eleshnitsa, Monospit-
ova and Todorak. In these branch
schools the teachers are charged with
the spiritual nurture Of the pupils and
their families, as well as with their
mental development, Mrs. Tsilka, writ

her work in Kortcha says;

The pupils who make up the student
body In the Macedonian and Albanian
schools are Of many different nationals
ties as well as clans The major part
are Bulgarians, Wallachians. Servlans
and Albanlans, but these again are d.
vided into the villagers OF Debrl, Ma
lesia and others. The Albanians alone
are divided into these classes, the Tosk
or southern. the Gheg or northern and
the Lehi or northeastern. The Tosks
are the most progressive and mercur-
ial. Those not Moslems are connected
with the Greek church, though Alban-
ians In general are Indifferent TO the
claims OF religion and slack In obsery-
Ing its rites and ceremonies.
The first school established In Albania
was by an Albanian--a graduate of the
mission school at Samok0v A few years
ago while on his way to a preaching
station he was seized by brigands, who
mistook him for wealthy merchant
for whom they were lying In walt.
When they learned that their captive
was connected with the British and
Foreign Bible society they refused to
release him, expecting that large ram
som would be paid. Then follawed four
months of indescribable dangers and
sufferings In his wanderings and hid
ings with the hlghwaymen. Meanwhile
his friends made Untiring efforts to
raise the ransom needed. After much
parlleying the brigands accepted the
terms offered them, about one.quarter
Of the exorbltant sum first named, and
released their captive.
What the outcome Of Miss stones

For the brigands, who conflne their

A case In point was mentioned In the
last letter written by Miss Stone 10 the
Woman's Board OF Missions in Boston,
when one of the Chris tan workers had
just been returned to his home after
serving term in the prison of the Sew
en- Towers in Salonica on the accusation
Of having fed brigands,

sometimes killed.
The suggestion that the abductors OF
Miss Stone and Mrs. Tsllka are mem

present committee, seems scarcely prob
able.
