Timothy Hopkins is al years old, six
feet high and has the frame of an ath-
lete. He is handsome, well educated
and polished in his manner. He was
plain Tim Nolan, when in 1862, at the
age of IL years, he went to live with
Mark Hopkins. His father was Mr..
Hopkins gardener, and when he died
the millionaire, having no children of
his own, and having taken great fancy
to the boy, took him into his family, ed
ucated him and treated him as his son.
After the death of Mr.. Hopkins his
widow formally adopted young Nolan
in June, 1879, and he has been recog-
nized as the heir to the Hopkins millions.
He is married, and with his wife and
daughter was travelling in Japan, where
he received the news of Mrs. Searles
death, and of the provisions of the will
which cut him off without cent. He
Immediately returned and arrived in
New York last week.
Mr.. Hopkins was present at the mar
riage of Mrs. Hopkins to Mr.. Searles in
Trinity chapel in New York Nov. S.
1887. She had met Mr.. Searles soon
after her first husbands death in 1879.
and when she built her palace at Great
Darlington, Searles, who is an artistic
decorator by profession, furnished many
suggestions for the arrangement and
decoration of the house.
Mrs. Hopkins at that time had given
her adopted son 800, 600 and "a magnifi-
cent estate in California. 1t is said that
she disinherited him on account of some
harsh remarks which he is alleged to
have made in regard to her after her
second marriage.

who, accompanied by numerous suite,
including the ministers of state. was in
waiting to receive the imperial traveller.
AS the smperor was upon the point of
leaving the station he was met by the
burgomaster of Munich and other mu-
nicipal officers. The burgomaster, after
a short speech OF welcome, presented
him with an illuminated address, ex-
pressing the satisfaction of the citizens
of Munich at the visit of the ruler of
Germany to the Bavarian capital. Re-
ferring to the peace of Europe Emperor
William said that he would be grateful
TO his high allies if he was supported in
his efforts to preserve peace
At the town hall the emperor, reply
ing to an address of welcome rendered
him on behalf of the citizens of Munich,
and distinct from the official welcome
extended by the burgomaster and other
municipal officers, said: Il shall give
your city warm place in my heart if
only on account of the many tokens of
devotions manifested by the citizens of
Munich toward my grandfather and to-
ward my father, which are guarantees
of your loyalty"
The emperor concluded by calling for
cheers for the city of Munich, which
were readily and most enthusiastically
given by all present.

MILLIONS AT STAKE.
Contest Of Mrs. Searles' Will Be-
gun in Massachusetts.
TALES OF A COMPROMISE DEHIED.

The Date of the Hearing on the
Will Set Down for Sept. 22-value
of the Estate Estimated at $780,
100000 - Both Parties Repre-
scented by Eminent Counsel.
SALEM, Mass, Sept. 9.-It is new as
sured that Timothy Hopkins, the adopt
ed son of the late Mark Hopkins, the
California millionaire, will contest the
will of Mary F. s. Searles. his adopted
mother, who disinherited him and left
the whole of her vast fortune to her
husband, Edward F. Searles. To de-
feat the will contests will have to be
made in every state in which any of the
Hopkins property is situated.
The preliminary steps in this state
were taken yesterday by filing notice
of appearance by Lawyer Z. I. Burley,
of Lawrence, and William G. Endicott,
of Salem, who has been retained by Mr..
Hopkins, and who at the same time for
merly declared their intention of con-
testing the will. Mr.. Hopkins, it is un-
derstood, has also retained Joseph III.
Choate, of New York, in addition to
Judge Boalt and Russell Wilson, of San
Francisco.
The Hearing Set Down for Sept. %.
In the probate court yesterday Mr..
Searles was represented by Solomon
Lincoln and Frederick Dodge, of Bos-
ton, and by representative of Butler,
Stillman g. Hubbard, of New York,
who offered the will for probate. Mr..
Hopkins is now in this city at the house
of Judge Endicott, and is accompanied
by his California lawyers. He did not
appear in court, however, when the no.
tice of contest was given. After some
discussion the date of the hearing on
the will was set down for Sept. 90 at 10
a. m.
This decisive action on the part of
Timothy Hopkins sets at rest all talk of
compromise between him and Mr..
Searles, the sole legatee under the will.
The value of the estate is estimated at
$4,000, 900.

Obituary..

Mary Belle, wife of W. V. Rood, and
only daughter Of Mr. and Mrs. w. W.
Wells, died at her home in Akron March
81, leaving a husband and four children.
She was born in Huntington January 4,
1852, where she spent her childhood and
youth. She was most loving wife, a
tender aud devoted mother and an affec-
! tiOnate daughter.
She gave her heart TO the savior in her
early womanhood while at college in
Oberln, where she graduated in '74-one
year later than her husband. She was an
earnest and faithful Christian, ever true to
her convictions Of right and meyer CON-
promising with evil.
The larger part of her married life was
spent in Akron where her husband is
principal of the high school. There, as
in all other places, the influence of her
Christian character drew around her a
host of warm friends as was shown during
her briefillness, and also by the quantity Of
beautiful flowers which adorned her cask-
ct as she was brought to the home of her
parents, the beauty and fragrance Of
which we're symbols Of her inner life.
The funeral services at Wellington were
conducted by the Rev. W E. Barton, pastor
Of the church Of which she was formerly
a member.
She was laid IN the tomb by loving
hands, surrounded by n large number of
relatives and friends. And as with bowed
heads and breaking hearts we commit
ed her body TO the earth aud her spirit
to the God who gave II, by faith we
looked up and saw the golden Ga to ajar
and heard an echo saying, "Here is rest,
sweet rest"
