THE DEATH OF A CAR.
Dramatic Story of the Way Nicholas /
Committed Suicide

Dramatic Story of the Way Nicholas |.
Committed Suicide.
There are various stories of the death
of the Gar Nicholas l. Here is one
which the great singer Mario heard
from doctor of the court and which
is told in ''Thc Romance of a Great
Singer"
When the Russian army was meet
ing with reverse after reverse In the
Crimean war the car sent for his doc
tor and demanded to know which was
the quickest and most painless poison
that he knew of, bluntly telling the
startled physician that he had re-
solved to commit suicide. He further
warned the doctor in the stern manner
which was his characteristic that if he
We're not obeyed the doctors life would
be worthless. He sharply silenced the
mans nervous circumstances and com.
manded him to bring the poison. I'll,
doctor did not dare to refuse and few
minutes later brought small via
containing the poison. which he as
sured the car would deprive any one
Of existence in few minutes. TO be
sure that he had been obeyed and tina,
the doctor was speaking the truth the
car obliged him to remain in the room
warning him that if the poison failed
his life should answer for it. The cZar
took the poison without the least ire
NOR or the movement of a muscle, and.
although twice told by the doctor, who
held his watch in his hand, that there
was time to save him by an antidote
should he alter his mind. the czar re-
fused, answering the second entreaty
by simply waving the man away, he by
that time being unable to speak. 1t
was given out that the car had died
from the effects Of severe chill, but
those who knew the facts also knew
that he had committed suicide rather
than face the defeat of his army"
