WAITING FOR THE MOOSE.
Clifton Holden Has But One Day More Of
f.. Grace.
Early Friday Morning, the Rope Will
Tighten Round His Neck.
The Redwood Falls Jail Will be the Scene
of Execution.
Not Much Depressed Upon Resolving
Information AS to his Fate.

Clifton Holden has less than two days
to live, but, notwithstanding that, he
does not seem much depressed and eats
with apparently as good an appetite as
before he was informed that he would
be hung. When told by the sheriff last
week that all hope had vanished and
that nothing remained for him now but
d rope, he took the announcement with
unusual GOODNESS. Heretofore he has
manifested great interest in the outcome
of his case, and whenever it was limited
that his chances were slim. his excitab BILE
nature caused him to refuse to eat any,
thing, to curse his accusers and the
authorities and even feign insanity
Now that every dodge has been worked
he seems willing to consign himself to
his fate and take things as they come.
AS to the crime-that of numbering
his cousin he still processes innocence
When his brother was here, be was told
that everything had been done for him
that could be done, and then was asked
to say whether he was really guilty or
not. He insisted that he was not. and
said that in time the people would find
out that he spoke the truth.
The execution will take place at Red
wood Falls Friday morning before day
and, in order to avoid delay, tue prison
er will be removed to Redwood Falls
to. day.
