A CZAR IN AN ATTIC.
Room In the Winter Palace Whsre ;
emperor Nicholas I. Died.
Tin* Winter palace of the c/.ar sur- i
, passes any other pala»e in Kurope. It
is on the hanks ol tin* Neva and owes
its exi den c to the K iprcss Catherine ;
11., that most extraordinary woman, j
extraordinary in ability and in vice,
tin* surprise of ail her contemporaries1
and the wonder of all who have stud
led her character. The building Is four !
stories high, of a light brown color and j
; highly ornamental in architecture, it j
is a wilderness of halls, stairways and :
apartments. The Nicholas.hall and the
St. George’s hall will never be forgot
ten by those who have seen I hem.
| One of the most Interesting rooms is
that where Nicholas I died, it is in
tin* upper story of the northeast corner
of the building and is approached by
, four doors and finally by a narrow
passage. it is a small room, only j
i about eighteen feet long and twelve ;
feet wide, with two small windows. !
and is the place where the emperor j
spent most of Ids time when not otli
| dally employed. It is tin* room in
which he died, some say by poison ad
ministered by himself in a tit of melan
choly induced hy the outcome of the
i Crimean war.
The room remains just as he left it.
Near the center is a plain iron bed
l stead. Some chairs and a few cheap
: pictures adorn the room, and a dilapi
i dated, down at the heel pair of slippers
complete the furnishings of the attic
room in the palace.
Woman's Wiles.
“What a hold Maud seems to have on i
all her rejected suitors ”
! “Why shouldn't she. the artful tiling!
Kiie always tells a man when she re
fuses him that <he is afraid to marry a
handsome man because she would he !
so jealous.” rincimiati Kmpdrer.
Labor and Genius.
The common idea is the more labor
the less genius In other words, the
i greater the labor the worse the art
The truth is exactly the opposite
