THOMAS L. HOPKINS.

  Last evening at 5.25 o'clock Thomas L. Hopkins died at the hospital, 
where he had been ill since April 6.  He had been sick for several 
months.  The deceased was born in Altoona May 6, 1862, being the son of 
John and Mary Hopkins, both deceased.  Most of his life was spent in 
this city, but for the last seven years he has not resided in Altoona.  
June 20, 1889, he married Miss Mary Rowan, who, with one little 
daughter, survives her husband.  The other surviving relatives are a 
sister, Miss Mary Hopkins, and a brother, Frank Hopkins, a Pennsylvania 
railroad policeman, both of this city.  Mr. Hopkins was a nephew of the 
late B. J. Lynch.  He was a member of St. John's Catholic church.  The 
remains were removed to the residence of his wife's parents, Mr. and 
Mrs. Richard Rowan, 1328 Seventeenth avenue, last evening.  The funeral 
announcement will be made later.
