 Of course. 1t was de Struve' the en- vov who. in the eyes of the world, won this brilliant diplomatic coup But the principal work in connection with the affair had been done by Baron Ro- sen. a fact, which de Struve, with char acteristic generosity, was the first 10 admit. It was Rosen's first diplomat ic laurel wreath, and his reward came in decorations and appointment 10 full first secretaryship of legation. m stead of a mere acting attache. From +b,t time forth his career in the diplo- matIc service was assured. only too late did the Japanese Foreign Omce realize it's cruel mistake in thus per hitting the friendship of Rosen Tor pu- reau chiefs and de Struve's courtesles and compliments to them to bring about a surrender of such importance as that of Sakhalin.
 Sir Harry Parkes and the other TOT eien envoys got terrible raps over the knuckles from their respective govern ments for having permitted such ne Rotiations to be carried on under thelr very eyes without knowing anything about them, and so angry was the Eng fish Foreign Office that Sir Harry Parkes would undoubtedly have been shelved had it not been for his splen- did record in China and at the time UT the Japanese revolution.
 In those days Rosen was as quiet as reserved and as gentle hammered as understand he still remains. There was nothing of the gay guardsman or or the swashbuckler about him, and with his rather mournful eyes he suggested to us rather the hero of some romance mingled with tragedy, than the prln- clpal figure in a thousand and one m sane extravagances at St. Petersburg, Indeed. he had an air of shrinking, al most maidenly, modesty, which was very taking, and which subjected him to no end of chaff and banter on the part of the witty Mime. de StruVe. Especially was this the case after the following amusing episode:
 With the object of furthering tho aims which ne had In view, namely the surrender of Sakhalin, by the Jap anese, he paid court to the wives or the bureau chiefs, and one of these ladies, rather pretty, showed so much interest in European fashions that the Baron determined to gratify her, ana incidentally her husband, by ordering from Paris a complete outfit, tncluu- ing dress, hat, lingerie, and, In 1act, everything, Realizing that the little lady would not know in what order to don the garments. and being much too modest to venture 10 offer her any ln- formation on the subject, he sent in- struetions to Paris that the outnt should be packed in the order in which the garments were to be donned-the underwear on the top of the box and the dress etc, down at the bottom or the box. And he notified her of this. Unfortunately the name and address were by mistake put on the bottom or the case instead of on the lid, and as the lady complied with the directions of Rosen. and, finding the frock on top'
