A WEALTHY WOMAN DEAD.
MRS. MARK HOPKINS SEARLES
BREATHES HER LAST.

The Builder of a Magnificent Palace and

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArCH.1
METHUEN, MASS. July 25.-Mrs Mark
Hopkins-Searles, wife of Edward T. Searles,
the New York architect, and widow of the
millionaire, Mark Hopkins, of the Pacific
slope, died at her mansion here this morn
ing as a result of an attack of the grip,
Mrs. Searles was one of the richest women
in America. Her first husband, Mark Hop
kins, who died in 1873, was one of the five
men of California who built the Central
Pacific Railroad and made each thereby a
princely fortune. He left an estate that
was inventoried at S21, 700, 600, but that was
said to be one-third below the real value.
Mrs Hopkins received all but 81, 600 of it,
and year or so ago she was said to be
worth 100000
Mrs. Hopkins was born in New York
City. Her father was William Sherwood
teacher and author of some repute. He went
to Great harrington, Mass, when Mrs.
Hopkins was little girl.
Some years ago Mrs Searles bought land

Great Darlington, and in the rear of that
structure she erected palace whose mag
nifcence was talked about in all parts
of the country. In its grandeur the main
hall eclipses many a European castle.

BILE In the left tower is cloakroom, and
in the right tower reception room. The
floor is of marble and the ceiling of stucco
wood, polished to initiate ivory. The side
walls are paneled with costly mosaics, IL

Mrs. Searles gave good deal for charita-
bic and benevolent purposes. The greater
part of her gifts went to the Congregational
Church in Great Darlington, of which old
DR.. Samuel Hopkins, an ancestor of her
husband, was made pastor in 1741. Mrs.
Searles was woman of great strength of
character. In mental characteristics, as
well as in appearance, she was rather mas
culine.

A Foreign Invasion.

Terrible winters throughout Europe
brought forth bitter fruits that ripened in
America. la Grippe with varying
violence broke forth here, and the NOR
tality lists show its shocking ravages in
aggravated cases. An alcoholic principle
embodied as a medicated stimulant in the
form of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has
and will ever prove the best specific.
Leading continental and American ply
sicians declare that q medicine with a
spirituous basis, such as this, affords the
surest guaranty against the tremendous
inroads Of this shocking malady. When
we consider that a slight change of
weather is apt to renew it, that it attacks
those easily vulnerable organs, the lungs,
that its progress is tremendously swift
and destructive, we must admit the ne
cessity Of repelling it at the outset with a
sure preventive. Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters is also safeguard against mala-
ria, dyspepsia, rheumatism, liver and
kidney complaints.

How to Tell a Genuine Diamond.

1t is said that an expert is no longer re-
quired to tell whether diamond is
genuine or not. The test is simple and
can be made in any place and in a
moment. All you need is a piece Of
paper and lead pencil. With the latter
make small dot on the paper, then look
at it through the diamond. If you can
see but one dot you can depend upon it
that the stone is genuine, but if the mark
is scattered, or shows more than one, you
will be perfectly safe in refusing to pay
10 cents for a stone that may be offered
you at $500. OF course diamond to be
subjected to such an examination must
either be without its setting, or so
mounted that the light will pass through
it perpendicularly.

260 threads to the inch, and, with very
fine glass, the threads may be seen
clearly. These screws are 4-1000ths of an
inch in diameter, and the heads are
double. 1t is estimated that an ordinary
lady's thimble would hold 100000 of these
screws. No attempt is ever made to
count them, the method pursued in de-
termining the number being to place 100
of them on very delicate balance, and
the number of the whole amount is de-
termined by the weight of these. After
being cut, the screws are hardened and
placed in frames, about 100 to the frame,
heads up, this being done very rapidly,
by the sense of touch instead of by sight,
and the heads are then polished in an au-
tomato machine, 10000 at a time. The
plate on which the polishing is performed
is covered with oil and grinding COM

ARARE OPPORTUNITY
Good AgriculturaFLand for $40
to $40 per Acre.

The Pacific Improvement Company has ro-l
Gently purchased twelve thousand Scres Of
land in the heart Of nehama County, for the
purpose of promoting subdivision and settle
ment. This land embraces lands from first
class Sacramento Valley agricultural land to
land OF fair average quality, and is offered at
from $40 to $50 pes acre, in subdivisions OF
40, so, 12o, 160 and $50 acres.
The terms upon which these lands are offered
are especially attractive They will be sold in
subdivisions, as above indicated, by the pay
ment of interest only for three years. at which
time the purchaser can begin the payment of
principal by paying the first of five equal an
nual installments. Thus no part of the prin-
cipal is to be paid for three years. and then
the purchaser is 20 have five years in which to
pay five equal annual installments, with in
terest at the rate of per cent. per annum,
making payments extending over a period OF
eight years. Intending purchasers are as
sured that this is an opportunity to purchase
hand of fair average quality at SO per acre,
and good agricultural land at $40 an acre,
With other grades OF land at prices to CORE
spond between these figures
The assertion Is frequently made that good
lands, suitable for general farming and es-
pecially adapted for fruit-growing cannot De
had in California for less than from $50 to
500 an acre. An examination OF the land
subject of this advertisement will prove to
home-seekers that this is an opportunity for
the purchase of good agricultural land at $40
an acre, and for qualities grading down to fair
agricultural land at 81 O an acre, on terms of
payment which should make the disposition
OF these lands to actual settlers result easy of
accomplishment.
The primary object of the purchase Of thia
body OF land was the breaking up OF O large
holding for the purpose of promoting its set
tlement in smaller quantities and its devotion
~ diligent husbandry.

The Whfstling Distemper.

1t is alleged that for a generation the
people Of Alexandria, Va, have been
afflicted with the whistling distemper 1t
has often puzzled the good people of
Alexandria to know why General Albert
Pike changed his place of residence from
this place to Washington few years ago,
says Richmond correspondent. His
residence at the corner of Cameron and
ST. Asaph streets was one of the incest in
this town. He had his magnificent IL
brary there, and when, few years ago,
he announced that he had determined to
remove to Washington, many We're the
conjectures as to the cause of the move
and many were the causes assigned.
Only few days before his death the
matter was cleared up. In a conversation
with gentleman from this city the Gen
-eral was asked why he had left this city
for Washington, and his reply was be-
cause ''the Alexandra people whistle too
much"
