Adams From Assyrian Missionary in Tabriz. A letter containing details of the Russians in the vicinity of Urumiah has been received by Rev. Elisha Adams, the head of the Assyrian Mis- sion of the South Congregational church, from Rev. Abrahm Murhatch, a native missionary. Rev. Muhrhatch tells of the de- | struction of the whole distict of Ur- umiah by the Turks. The Turks burned 128 towns, leaving only two | towns in the whole plain, these being | reserved for the Turkish chiefs. The letter is written from Tabriz, which has been reoccupied by ' the Russians after three days of ravaging on the part of the Turks. The Amer- ican missionaries and the American consul interceded for the people and only one person was killed. F rom fifteen to twenty thousand persons were unable to escape to Russia and on account of the destruction of the crops and the foraging of the soldiers, the people are practically sta#ving for want of food and suffering for want of clothes. Good progress is being made at the South church in raising ,funds for purposes of relief. DIRD. STUDIES FOR CHILDREN. " Interesting Entertaiment. at Library Next Saturday Afternoon.
