stories high, of n light brown color and

Is a wilderness o f halls, stairways and
apartmeuts. The Nicholas ball and the
St. George's hall will never be forgot-

One of the most Interesting rooms Is
that where Nicholas I. died. It Is In
the upper story of the northeast corner
of the building and Is approached by
four doors nud finally by a narrow
passage.
It Is a small room, only
about eighteen feet long and twelve
feet wide, with two small windows,
nnd Is the place where tbe emperor
spent most o f his time when not offi­
cially employed.
It Is the room in
which he died, some say by |x>lson ad­

A
Man of Quiok W it and Prompt
Action Waa Lord Whitworth.
I.ord Whitworth, who held various
posts o f honor In English diplomatic
circles, was a kindly, gracious gentle­
man us well as a wit and a man o f
the world. He had Indeed almost meas­
ured «words with Napoleon at the
Tuilerles when that despot railed at
England for not having evacuated
Egypt nnd Malta, accused her o f hav-
lng violated treaties and ended by
flourishing a cane dangerously near the
face o f the English ambassador.
I.ord Whitworth put his haud on tbe
hilt o f his sword.
"W h at would you have done If tbe
etn|>eror had struck you?" be waa a ft­
erward asked.
“ I would have felled him to the
ground,” was tbe quiet answer.
Perhnps the best story told o f him Is
one showing how his quick wit dis­
posed o f a rival. When he was at the
Russian court, Fox sent there as a sort
o f umbossador o f his own a man named
Adair, the son of a surgeon..
One day the empress, speaking la
French, said to Lord Whitworth:
“ Is be a very Important man, this it.

"N o t so very, madame.” replied Lord
Whitworth, "although bis father wss s
