able murders ever committed in West
Virginia, was that in punishment Of
which William Maier is to hang to-day.
The events in connection with this
crime though familiar to most people,
are here brought together, and will no
doubt be read with considerable inter
est, especially as the chain OF events is
oil an intensely dramatic character.
William Mater, the convicted man,
was a baker by trade, native OF Writ.
emburg, Germany, being born in 1863.
Previous to coming to this country he
had almost a clean record in Germany,
The exception being that he once got
ten DAYS imprisonment in his native
town for petit larceny-stealing limbur-
ger cheese. He came to this country
about eight years ago, and Tor several
years had been resident of this city,
working at his trade. HN at one time
was employed in Mrs. Louisa Heager's
bakery on Sixteenth street, and while

for a bed and sitting room, and the
other a. kitchen. The entrance was
by an open stairway on the upper side
Of the house, aud was the only entrance
