WASHINGTON, February 2s.-Bishop John
W. Hurst. Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. resident in Washington, to-day
made the first payment of 100000 for a
tract of ninety acres Of land lying Just west
of Oak View" ex-President Cleyeland's
former country home, near this city, to be
used as site of the proposed new Methodist
University. Bishop Hurst held an option on
this property which had not expired, but
owing to the generous response TO the call
for contributions for the university he was
able 10 conclude the purchase at an earlier
date than be had anticipated. The re-
naming payments of the purchase money
will be made in instalments, and it IS the
intention TO collect the balance of the
money needed in this city, where all money
thus far expended has been contributed:
1t is estimated that at least one and
half million of dollars will be needed TO
erect necessary buildings and properly en-
dow the new institution. An appeal will
be made for funds to the Methodist
Church at large.
Bishop Hurst said TO-DAY that it had
been decided not to have collegiate de-
partment in connection with the Unlversi-
ty. but that the curriculum would consist
entirely of courses of higher studies for
post-graduates studying for professions.
