Fryatt Execution Called
Crime by Dutch Paper

Amsterdam, July 2s.-The execution
Of Captain Fryatt has caused great
Indignation throughout Holland and II
is generally compared with the execU-
lion Of Miss Edith Cavell.
The Amsterdam "Telegraaf" says:
The execution cauSes no surprise,
but eIcites horror and indignation at
crime which is as mean as the shoot
ing Of the brave English nurse. IL is
burning shame which calls for ven
geanee."

Woman and Children Say
Farewell to Doomed Man
in Death House.
PLEA TO WHITMAN
WITHOUT RESULT
Family Assert Prisoner Who
Goes to Chair This Morning
Is Innocent.

Mrs. Charles Stielow, accompanied
by her son, eleven years old, and her
daughter, thirteen years old, paid her
final visit last night to her husband
in the death-house at Sing Sing prison.
He will be electrocuted in the prison
at o'clock this morning, to pay the
penalty for the murder of Charles
Phelps, farmer, at Medina, n. Y, and
his housekeeper, Margaret Wolcott.
The mother and children went to Os-
sining after a futile visit to Governor
Whitman in Albany, during which all
three pleaded with the Executive to
commute Stelow's death sentence. Mr..
Whitman refused to halt the execution.
Mrs. Stielow, leading her little son
with one hand and her daughter by
the other, reached the outer gates of
Sing Sing Just at twilight. The pitt
full trio were Immediately ushered into
the dim corridors of the death house,
where they remained until 10 o'clock.
The interview was not demonstra-
tive. Mrs. Stielow cried steadily, but
not loudly. The two children talked
naturally with their father, striving
bravely to master the sobs that were
shaking their little bodies.
Declares Husband Innocent
"He's innocent, and I'll swear to tie
truth of it until my dying day." Mrs.
Stielow broke out as she tottered from
the prison.
The condemned mans hope Of re
prieve fingered until his eyes fell last
night upon the set faces of his wife
and children. Throughout yesterday,
while prison officers were taking the
measurement of his head and perform
ing the other grim tasks that precede
an execution, he asked them again anc
again:
isn't there any hope at all for me ?"
And invariably the answer came:
"Yes-some hope. Your children
may move the Governor, you know"
Stielow's case presents situation in
the prison that has not existed for
years. Not only his fellow condemned
men in the death house but practl-
cally every keeper and officer at Sing
Sing believes he is innocent Of the
crime for which he must die to-day.
The tribute of the prisoners to him
is seen in the visit which the wife and
children were able TO pay him last
night. The funds which brought them
from their home in Medina were ad-
vanced by the prisoners themselves,
raised by a subscription within the
prison walls.
Neither Warden Osborne nor Deputy
Warden Miller will attend the execu-
tion this morning.

Plea 10 Governor In Vain.

Albany, July 2s.-Mrs. Stielow and
her two children made a pathetic ap-
peal to Governor Whitman to-day for
the life Of Charles Stielow, but MI.
Whitman refused TO set aside the death
sentence. Ethel, the daughter Of the
condemned man, declared her father
was at home on the night Of the double
murder and could not have had any
part in it, but the Governor held that
her evidence was corroborative and
threw no light on the crime.
Stielow's attorney made a presenta-
tion of new developments in the case,
and also set forth that the prisoner was
mentally deficient. The Governor was
not impressed by either plea.

ParaeOuld Paper
 Praises Local Girls.
 The Para9Ould Press contains tho following complimentary notice of the recital given 'here Monday evening by two talented Pine Bluff girls:
 ''The few music lovers of Para gould who had the pleasure of hearing Misses Henrietta and Florence Brew ster of Pine Bluff, in a recital at the West Side auditorium last evenine, were indeed favored with an enter tainment, the nature of which was not only gratifying in every detail, but also effulgent with ropertory consid- eration and perfection of execution.
 Miss Henrietta Brewster is the possessor of a rich. resonant voice of mezZo quality voluninous, and with an extensive range. her higher notes ringing equally as truly, full and fin ished as those of the lower register. Neither did she sacrifice enunciation for beauty of tone, and thereby her audience was enabled to catch the sentiment of the composer thru the sympathetic interpreter without eff l fort.
 Rare fleyibliiy was demonstrated I in an aria from the opera. "Mignon." /"
 while in "FIindoo Song" there was
 a depth of dramatic ability and in others a pleasing sentimentality. "NIss Brewster was accompanied by her sister. Miss Florence, who also l rendered three very brilliant piano numbers, showing both a delicate | technique in 2 "Valse Styrienne,' and 1 a careful descriptive power in a March Militaire.'
 Both young ladies have a charming personality which also enhanced the otherwise attractive program"
