Abilene Reporter.
BY the action of the board of edu-
cation OF the Northwest Texas Con-
ference, in session here Friday un-
der the direction of Bishop William
f. McMurry. recommendation will
be made at the next meeting OF the
oCnfernece that will result In the To-
cation at Abilene of an Al college
under the control and direction of
the Methodist church.
The bid which Abilene made for
, this school was attractive In every
way and one of the most liberal ever
offered a school in Texas. 1t calls
for donation of 100000 from a
band OF Abilene Methodlsts who feel
the need for such an institution in
this part of the state. The citizen
ship of Abilene will add another
100000 and a beautiful site OF 20
acres has also been contributed. In
addition Abilene agreed to raise an
other 100000 as endowment. rails
ing the total actual offer Of this city
to $3.50. 900, supplemented by perpet-
ual free water for the institution.
The general conference OF the Meth
odist church will add $4,000 as en-
dowment, which will start the school
off on a solid financial basis and will
insure its success.
That the Methodists of West Tex
as need an A-grade college located at
some point inthis conference is APP
parent TO every person who has look
ed into the matter at all. That Abb
lene is prominently the place for
this school is just as apparent. The
city has reached a population where
II is financially able to support the
college and here has always been in
Abilene a school spirit unsurpassed
in any city in the world.
Abilene is situated 80 that II at
once becomes an ideal location for
an institution OF this kind because
of the pleasant climatic conditions
and civic advantages OF the city.
People like to live in Abilene. The
many public improvements now I'M
der way will add much to the COM
forts of Abilene as a residential city.

Peculiar Feud Between Egyptian VII
layers Is Declared to Have
Lasted $50 Years.

From Egypt, by way Of the Euro
pean press, comes news of the ending
Of remarkable court case at Cairo.
II originated in the vendetta, not be-
tween families, but between two whole
villages, Hamldat and Ashraf. near
Keneh, Upper Egypt, northeast of the
ruins of Thebes.
One hundred and fifty years ago a
dog from the village of Hamidat bit
an Ashraf man, who died. A quarrel
followed between his relatives and
the owner of the Hamidat dog which
developed till all the inhabitants OF
Ashraf considered that all persons of
Hamdat blood were guilty of the
death. The hatred of one village for
the other became hereditary, and as
sassination was common between them
whenever the conditions of the coun-
try favored disorder.
Last spring Ashraf attacked Ham,
idat In force. A score Of HamIdatians
were killed, 100 houses were burned
and all movables, such as cattle and
harvests, were carried off. is
Hamidat remembered the dog and
Bit back, killing 10 of the assailants
These slayers have just been tried,
II accused being brought into court
and one lawyer assigned to every Ave
persons for the defense. Twenty-one
received sentence of ten years penal
servitude
II is noteworthy that the vendetta
did not include women who during
the $50 years had INDUCED only in
verbal warfare.
