At His Fiendish Work.

Arthur Williams arrived at Rainhil VII
lage early one morning in last July and took
a suit Of rooms at the Commercial hotel.
He showed great sums Of money and as
sumed free and easy air at once with the
people of the house He is described as
about forty-fve years old, with heavy
dark mustache, high cheek bones and
sallow skin. He spoke rapidly, and not as
an Englishman. He wore his hair rather
long, his clothes fitted his bony figure
rather loosely and he walked with long,
heavy stride He Is supposed to be a
Yankee or a Canadian.
He affected the rollicking, big hearted
form Of life, spent his money freely on every
body he met and apparently liked every
body. He wore massive lewelry and dia-
monds He was a capital story teller, and
in conversation betrayed a vide experience
in the colonies and on the continent His
two peculiarities were that he would never
talk about his own affairs and would not
allow himself to be photographed
Before Williams married Miss Mather and
about the time of the disappearance Of his
visitors he commenced to act strangely. He
said his house was out Of order, and he
bought number Of barrels Of cement to
patch il up, he said. He appeared nervous
while at this work, drank heavily and nnally

laid with fresh cement, and they finished
