lived from $50 TO SIS The monastery was
originally built in the eleventh century.
In these DAYS Bulgaria was a powerful
nation and its opulence and the mag
nihcence of its rulers were the wonder Of
the world. The ruins of the palaces Of
the Bulgarian czars at Tirnova. the an
cient capital are extensive and still show
evidences OF their original splendor. The
walls were decorated with gold and inlaid
with mosaics OF gilded glass. The pill
lars were of polished marble. and much
bronze was used in ornOmetnation. in
the early chronicles We catch a glimpse
of the car who sat upon a throne of
ivory ornamented with gold, silver and
previous stones, in an audience chamber
Of marble. His robe was trimmed with
pearls his girdle glistened with diamonds.
his armor tinkled with the chains Of gold
coin that hung about his neck and Shout
ders. The bracelets, anklets and collars
which he wore We're embossed with jew
els OF great price, and his scepter was
set with rubies. diamonds. sapphires and
other precious stones, like those that can

II is not altogether certain that the
monks of St. Ryle are blameless OF COM
plicity in Miss Stones abduction. but
there is no proof that they had any
share in or knowledge Of the outrage. The
suspicion is based upon knowledge OF
previous circumstances. Their relation
with the brigands have always been
friendly. and in olden times the secluded
situation of monastery made il a conve-
nfent rendezvous for enterprising gentle
men who ordinarily pursued peaceful ay
ocations in the fields and pastures but
took 10 the road whenever tempted by
favorable opportunities or pressed by
necessity. They are said to have given
