L e e e e e ] COLLECTOR BEATS MRS, HARRY PIPER She Tries to Save Piano From the Company's Agent. Mrs. Henry Piper, wife of former Chiet Deputy County Clerk Piper, is nursing a sore back and a swelling on her side, be- | | sides doctoring many bruises and black | and blue spots, the result of her encounter with a brutal collector and a colored plano mover. Some time ago Mrs. Piper bought a plano from the Heine Company, a plano firm, doing business at 217 Geary street. | | | | | ADVERTISEMENTS. . She agreed to pay for the plano at the| rate of $7 per month, and made payments aggregating in all $210. Mrs. Piper then | decided she would like to have another in- | strument and arranged to exchange for | | another plano, for which she agreed to pay $37, the firm allowing $185 for the | | plano offered in exchange. Payments | | T=e regularly made on the instrument at | | the rate of §7 per month until December 2§ |last. = For two months the Pipers were | pressed for money and had to put the pay. | ing of the nstallments of. nally Piper | | went down to see W. F. Gibson, attorney | | for the Heine Company, and offered to | | pay the balance due on the piano in full if the time of payment was extended un- | | til April. If the payment was not made | then, Piper told the attorney he would | | willingly surrender the plano and relin- | quish ail claim to the same. Gibson told | Piper he deemed that a very fair proposi- | tion and had no doubt Heine would be | glad to accept it, so Piper says. He gent | | no word to the contrary to Piper and so | both he and Mrs. Piper felt confident that the matter was amicably settled, they de- | | ciare | On Saturday about mnoon Willlam ‘ ‘Woenne, collector for the Helne Company, | | presented himseif at the Piper home at and demanded admit- r. who had answered his ithin the door which she | partly opened and asked Woenne | he anted. ! | ant the piano,” sald Woenne. “Let | me in i “My husband has arranged all about | the piano,” replied Mrs. Piper, “‘and you | had better come again when he is at| | home. But Woenne Insisted that he was going | to enter the house right then and thers {and cart off the plano, and when Mrs. | Piper forbade him the right to enter hc! struck her a blow In the side that raised lump as s his cruel fist, she alleges. Passing ov rs. Piper's prostrate body the brutal collector entered the house and marched into the little sitting room where * said Mrs. Piper, as she skault yesterday, “1 was ain and him use. His ver feet @ the h ordered only an: on to my leave was to rain blows down upon me. He struck me on the shoulders, th s, the chest and the back. I succeeded in pro- | tecting my face by holding a little chalr |in front of it. After he had about ex- | hausted me with his blows Woenne called a colored piano mover in and ordered him to take the plano away. I cried and for- bade him to lay hands upon the instru | ment and thereupon the colored brute | struck me several blows. When I could | defend myself no longer I rushed to the doorway and seating myself upon the step that led to the street, s: ou will have to lift that pilano over me.

AMSTERDAM, March 5—Queen Wil-! helmina and the Prince Consort entered this city in state to-day. The royal par- ties were recefved by the principal au- thorities and conducted to the royal pa- vilion, where had gathered a brilliant ar- ray of officials, including the Governor of | the province of Northern Holland and | high military, naval, judicial and civil dig- | nitaries. The Burgomaster of Amsterdam dellv- ered an address of welcome. The proces- | sion in state carriages, escorted by troops, | then traversed the streets of the capital, which, in spite of the rain, were packed with throngs of enthusiastic subjects. The | route to the palace was lined by the civic guards and troops of the garrison. Sa- | lutes were fired as the procession ad-| vanced and the progress of the royal par- :,_V;"was signaled by the ringing of church | | | | | s The royal cortege was not long, but suf- ficlently varied to be of interest. It was led by a squadron of Hussars and a mounted band. The horses and carriages of the cortege were brilllantly capari- soned and the outriders and footmen wore the vari-colored state liveries. The royel equipage, drawn by eight horses, was preceded by a mounted guard of honor composed of the Queen’s aids-de- camp, who, brilllant in gold and colors, were the center of attraction. On elther | side of the royal carriage rode the mill- | tary officers. The procession was closed by.a fine body of cavalry. ‘The Queen and the Prince Consort were evidently greatly pleased at the enthusi- asm of the reception and bowed unceas- ingly to the crowds along the line of | march. At the palace the Queen mother awaited her daughter. After this greet- ing Queen Wilhelmina and the Prince | Consort appeared upon the palace balcony in response to the vociferous cheers of the throng which had been permitted to gath- er in front of the royal palace. ~ To Women who Work. ‘What tragedy for the wage-earning woman is hidden | beneath the words *“I am not well enough to work " ! Every penny of her slender income is needed for the necessaries of life for herself and others. Seldom, indeed, is it that the girl or woman who works in a factory, or in some business office or store, has merely herself to support. Nearly always there is an invalid mother or sister, perhaps a brother or father. She taxes her endurance, therefore, to the last limit be- fore giving up. She knows her place will be filled by some one else. . _She has no money laid up. Her wages have been in- sufficient for her pressing needs, and she has spent money on doctors, trying to keep at work and hold her place. But it’s no use—she has reached the limit. In her fight with female troubles she has come off second best, as myriads of women have before her. ‘What will happen, now that che has lost her piace and hasbroken down in health ? . These heart-stirring stories are being lived all around us in lar%e cities, and every one of them might have been a story of health and energg, if the young woman had but written to Mrs. Pinkham when she first felt ill. She would have been told just how to make herself well and strong, as many other women-have, and this advice would have cost her nothing. And it is not alone in factories and business places that: women are forced to give up on account of ill health. Itis :}ui.te as often the woman who does her own work at home. his means, generally, doing the work for a household of seven or eight. _She also compels herself to attend to the daily round of duties when she ought to be in bed, and does not know where to look for that.reliable help that will put her on her feet and stop those awful aches and pains. The sure help for all ailing women, who work at home or elsewhere, is Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound. Women who have used it testify to this with one voice. ‘When the periods are gainful or too frequent; when the backaches and headaches drive out all ambition; when the heart-breaking, ‘‘dragged-down” sensation attacks you; when you are so nervous that every trivial thing excites ou, you may be certain that there is some growing trouble astening itself u&on you. Do not let disease make head- way. rite to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., for her free advice, and begin at once the use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. the uineness deposited with the National City *5000 8RRt 5 { { From Women Cured by Mrs. Pinkham. “DEAR Mes. Prxgmay :—I write to thank you for the good Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound and Sanative Wash have done me. It is now six years since I was taken sick. I had falling of the womb and ovarian trouble. I suffered untold pains; sometimes was so bad that I thought I could notlive. I used the Vege- table Compound steadily for some months and am now well. If you like, you may use my letter for the benefit of others.”—Miss Kartz P. JuNeLas, New Salem, Mich. “DEAR MRs. PINKkHAM :—It affords me a great deal of pleasure to ex- press my praise of your valuable Vegetable Compound. Words carnot tell what your medicine did for me. It saved my life. I was so weak and nervous, would have very bad hemorrhages. I did not do anything for a year, not even attend to my own family. I suffered beyond de- scription ; my physician said I could not get well without an operation, which I refused to have. I tried all kinds of medicine, but they did me no good. A friend recommended Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com~ pound. I used it and the Sanative Wash, and am now enjoying the best of health. Ihope that all suffering women will take your medicine.”— Mgs. ELLA LoNG, 333 Pear] St., Bridgetown, N. J, _*DEAR Mgs. PINEEAM :—I have been so delighted with your Vegetable Compound I thought I would write and thank you. My system was entirely run down; I suffered with terrible backache in the small of my back and could hardly stand upright; was more tired in the morning than on retirin&nt night. I had noappetite. Since taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable mpound I have gained fifteen pounds, and am gaining every week. My appetite has im- proved, have no backache, and I look better than I ever looked before. I shall recommend it to all my friends, as it certainly is a wonderful medicine.” — Mgs. E. F. MorToN, 826 York St., Cincinnati, O. “ DEAR MBs. PrxerAM :—I had been in poor health for twenty years, having inflammation of ovaries and womb trouble. Although treated by physicians, I could not seem to gain any strength, and could not do my work, and was so low spirited and tired of life. A friend advised me to take Lydia E. Piokham’s Vegetable Compound. The first bottle strengthened me and I wrote you. After taking six bottles, can say that 1 am well and can even do my washing. I cheerfully recommend your * Vegetable Compound to ever{vone with any female weakness, and cannot praise it enough.”—Mgs. M. W. MILLER, 1033 Canal St., Gulfport, Miss. “DEAR Mrs. PixgmAM :—It is with pleasure that 1 add my testimony to your list, hoping it may induce others to avail themselves of the benefit of your val- uable remedy. - Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vi Ci;mpound 1 felt very bad, had terrible sick headaches, no appetite, gnawing pain in stomach, pain in my back and right side; was tired and ner- vous, and so weak I could scarcely stand. I was not able to do anything, had sharp pains all through my body. Before I had taten half a bottle of your medicine, I found myself improving. I continued its use until I had taken four bottles and felt so well that. I did not need any more. I am like a new person.”— Mes. W. P. VALENTINE, 566 Ferry Ave., Camden, N.
