Answer:

for number 1.)

When the policeman "with his stalwart form" approaches the man lurking in the dark, the man speaks quickly. The light from his match shows a pale face with keen eyes, a scar near the eyebrow, and a scarf pin with a large diamond, "oddly set." He also carries an expensive watch, also set with diamonds. The pale face, keen eyes, and the scar are all hints as to the man's past.

The contrast between the two men hint at obvious differences in character. The policeman in uniform carries only his club and moves impressively and not "for show." He is "a fine picture of the guardian of the peace." The stranger is hidden in darkness, keeping a strange "appointment." He has diamonds-one that is oddly set

Number 2.)

There was now a fine, cold drizzle falling, and the wind had risen from its uncertain puffs into a steady blow.

So often weather is used by authors as foreshadowing since it can so easily suggest mood and emotion.

Explanation:Hope this helps! :)
