PREP AIRING FOR
THE EXECUTION.
SHERIFF WARD, OF ELK RIVER,
TALKS OF CRAWFORD CASE.
Says that While the Duty Of Executing
the Condemned Murderer Is an Odious
One, He Will Not Shirk His Re-
sponsibility Little Hope for Stay
Of Sentence.

Unless something unexpected inter
venes, G. d. Crawford, convicted Of the
murder of Heine Lundeen, will be
hanged in the jail yard at Elk River
between midnight and sunrise on Tues
day, Aug. Is. Sheriff Ward is in Min
neapolis today to arrange some Of the
final details of the hanging and for
Hennepin county jail to Sherburne
county.
The little town Of Elk River is agog
with interest and speculation over the
coming event. Several days before the
hanging everything will be in readi-
ness. A high-board fence is being built
around the spot in the. jail yard upon
which the scaffold will be erected. The
inclosure will accommodate about
hundred people, but considerably less
than that number will be in attendance.
81 have issued no invitations to the
hanging said Sheriff Ward today: -
will, Of course, ask the sheriffs Of the
state to be present, but only few OF
them will accept and besides the prin-
cipals and local officials, there will be
few witnesses. L do not believe there
is any prospect of a stay of execution,
and we will be in readiness for our part
Of the unpleasant duty when the time
comes. Personally, the task is odlous,
but it is a part Of my duty and am
not letting it interfere with my sleep.
| No Special Train.
I uThis talk about special train fol
the prisoner is absurd. I will bring
one deputy with me and we will take
Crawford to Elk River, probably or
the 14th. We will take an ordinary
coach, the same as we would with any
prisoner. I do not anticipate any diff
ficulty, as Crawford is not a fool anc
he knows it is useless for him to at
tempt anything.
"The man has wonderful nerve
J It has been displayed in many ways
!; since his arrest and during his Ions
trial and imprisonment. Really ;
: think, tho it is not nerve, but lack
| of appreciation or some such quality
in his mental makeup. Even now h
don It care anything about the crim
he committed, but simply hopes tina
: something may intervene to save hin
from the gallows.
ct understand that Crawford has ;
father, mother and sister living. W.
do not know their names and perhaps
we never will, altho he may give then
before he goes to the gallows. So ia
he has refused to tell Of his relative
or their whereabouts and in that b.
shows his manhood. His parents, VIII

have not seen him and have hear'
from him but once since he was year
old. They do not know whether he /
alive or dead.'' ~
