Sheriff Hardy is going ahead with pre-
parations for the execution, and by to-
night will have everything in readiness
to carry out the part he must play in
vindicatinS the law. The rope which was
ordered from-St- Louis arrived yesterday,
the scaffold was completed and taken to
the county Jail last evening, where the
40O-pound weight had already preceded
It. Today the sheriff will test the death
dealing machine to make sure it does it's
work well, when if it is found to be equal
to the demands that will be made upon it,
all will be in readiness.
Thiede being an unusually heavy man,
bunSle would be very easy, and Sheriff
Hardy proposes to provide against any
such an accident. He will attach the
rope to a sand bag that will weigh some
twenty-five or more pounds than Thiede,
and go through with a thorough rehear-
sal of the drop to be sure there is no
danger of the rope stretching or breaking
or of the weight being too light. The
test will be made in the iail yard but on
the opposite side from that on which
Thiede's cell is located, to prevent him
from seeing or hearing anything in con-
nection with it.
WILL DIE LIKE A MAN.
Thiede refused to see newspaper men
yesterday, as he did not care 10 be re-
minded any more than was necessary
that an inevitable end of his career is
drawing nearer day by day He is easily
agitated, and as the fatal day draws
nearer evidences more and more mis- in
ability to control his feelings, until now
such a thing as composure is out of the
question when reminded Of the penalty
he must suffer He insists, nevertheless,
that he will walk to the scaffold like a
man and will show no weakness when the
time comes.
One singular thing about Thiede is the
fact that he keeps a photograph of his
wife on a little ledge up over his bed.
where it must of necessity be the last
thing he sees before going to sleep at
night and the first thing his eyes viii
fall upon when they open in the morning.
That a man guilty of such a crime as
Thiede has been convicted of can stand
to have the picture of his victim so cons
stantly before him is some.h hing that
those marvel at who look into his cell
daily and always see the photograph in
its place.
Thiede saw no one yesterday except one
person outside of his keepers, and that
was friend who had once worked with
him. He spent the rest of the time at the
occupation that has become customary
with him of late-reading his law books,
and in the evening did his usual quota
