BULGARIAN BANDITS.
INTERRUPTED FEAST. Bands of brigands Tinned with rifles,, bombs and revolvers have recently made their appearance in different parts of Bulgaria. Near Aitos one brigand was killed during a sharp skirmish with gendarmes. A shepherd was killed by a band near a village close to Sofia. Two peasants were attacked on the road near Orhanie and robbed of all their savings which they had just withdrawn from a bank.
Another band of four men, led by S toy an Pavloff, a former policeman, appeared in a village near Pechtera, explaining that they had come not to rob, but to buy a lamb. Outside the village they made a fire and began to roast it. Just as the meat was about done they saw several policemen coming toward them. They fled to the woods and the policemen ate the roast lamb.
