At the death of Rauch she became rest
less in Europe and with a company Of
friends on philanthropy bent moved to
America and attempted to establish an
Utopian colony in the southern part Of
Georgia with the intention of uplifting
the negroes. The scheme fell through
and most of the colony returned TO Eu-
rope, but Elizabeth Ney had fallen in
love with the freedom of America, and
moved farther SOUTH to Austin, Tex. She
married DR.. Robert Montgomery of the
consular service. but retained her maiden
name because of its distinction and her
previous efforts To make Il famous. She
made the statue OF Austin. which now
graces the public square in the city
named for him, and Der fame having
spread through Texas. She was commits
stoned to make the statue Of Samuel
Houston. This work is beloved by all
citizens OF Texas. and many similar
works throughout the Lone Star State
now stand as tributes to her rare ability.
She lives very quietly with her two
children in the low stone building in
Hyde Park. where her studio is located.
She has seldom left the South. even to
visit her native land, which in "a meas
ure accounts for the fact that Northern
artists know so little about her She is
described by her friends as a woman OF
remarkable mentality her brain glowing
continually with charitable. but imprac-
ticable. schemes. European critics unite
I'm declaring that no living woman either
there or in America has equaled the quail
ity of her work. She is now seventy
years of age.

NEW Works. MURDER MYSTERY
sullet Killed Man Believed to Have
Died of Hemorrhaqe.

New York. March 19-The police
are investigating the death OF Her
man Knewtz, a retired butcher. who
was found dead at his home in the
Bronx. 1t was believed at first that
Knewitz died from a hemorrhage OF
the lungs. and although examinations
were made by two physicians II was
not until an undertaken was called that
II was learned that his death had been
taused by a bullet. The ball had en-
tered the temple and the wound had
been hidden by the mans long hair.
The members OF the dead mans fam
fly declare that he never owned re-
volver and they say he had no trouble
which would cause him to take his own
life.
Knewitz had an income of between
$1,000 and $1,000 annually from the
estate OF a brother who died some
time ago. It is said by the police that
the estate is in litigation and that
there have been serious disputes over
the disposition of the requests.
After Coroners Physician Monaghan
had performed an autopsy on the body
he said he was convinced that Kne-
WITT was murdered. The widow and
three daughters of the dead man are
all at the Knewitz home.

famed medicines leaving. the great lab0-
ratory at Buffalo, N. Y, has printed
upon its wrapper all the ingredients
entering Into its composition. This fact
alone places DIR. Pierce's Family Medi-
cInes il q class all bU themselves. They
cannot be classed with patent or secret
medicines because they are neither. This
Is why so many unprej JUDGED physicians
prescribe them and recommend them 70
their patients. They know what they
are composed OF, and that the ingredients
are those endorsed by the most eminent
medical authorities.
The further fact that neither DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the
great stomach tonic, liver invlgorator,
heart regulator and blood purifier. nor his
"Favorite Prescription for weak, over
worked, broken-down, nervous women,
contains any alcohol, also entities them

Many years ago. DR.. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine. Of proper
strength, Is a better solvent and presttv-
alive OF the medicinal principles resld-

cinal plants than Is alcohol; and further
more. that IL possesses valuable medicinal
properties OF It's own, being demulcent,

Neither Of the above medicines con-
tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit
forming drug, as win be seen from a
glance at the formula printed on each

potent To cure.
Not only do physicians prescribe the

the most intelligent people employ them
people who would not think OF using
the ordinary patent. or secret medicines.
Every ingredient entering into the COM

any such professional endorsement.
