BAN ON VILLAGE LIFTED.
A ban which was laid on the village of Glade, near Tetowo, Yugoslavia, thirty years ago, has been lifted by the Bishop of Stoplje, at the request of the villagers. In 1903, when the village and neighbourhood were under Turkish rule, the then Bishop of Stoplje paid a visit to it and was received with animosity and abuse by the inhabitants, upon which he promptly pronounced a ban. Since that time innumerable misfortunes have occurred in the village, such as the burning of ■ the church by lightning, destruction of crops by hail, cattle plagues, and devastation by the Komitadschls on several occasions.
