Copyright, 1912, by The Press Publishing Co, (The New York World), NO. 38.—NERO. Se HIS is the story of a man who had had three wives before he waa thirty; killed two of them and ordered the execution of a third woman for refusing to marry him, A man whose infamy was a0 great that its memory has overshadowed his undoubted fame as a heartbreaker. He was Nero Claudius Caesar Drusus Germanicus, who crowded inte thirty brief years more splendor, power, love and atrocious crime than come to one man in a million, Nero was the son of Agrippina, a Reman woman of rank, and of a dissolute young patrician named Ahenobarbus, His father diced when the son was three years old, and Nero was brought | up in poverty and neglect; his only early instructors being a barber and a dancer, But in 49 A. D. when he was twelve years old, his mother ‘brought about the death of Messalina, the wicked Empress of Rome, and married Claudius, the Emperor. | This gave Nero a very different position in life. Agrippina pursuaded | the foolish old Emperor to adopt Nero and to make the lad his helr in place of | his own son, Britannicus, the rightful successor. Octavia, the Emperor's gentle daughter, then married Nero. Nor, youthful as he was, was she the first women | to be won by his beauty of face and form and his chaym of manner. In &, Agrippina poisoned Claudius and put Nero on the throne. Nero was ‘only seventeen, He was not only handsome, but seemed gen- erous and good and blessed with a wisdom beyond his years. His tutor, the famous philosopher, Seneca, had implanted in him a desire to live rightly and to rule well. For « tia Nero did both. Then Agrippina and he quarretied, a beautiful young, girl of the people, had caught Nero's fancy and had fad | adore him as a sort of demigod.

Nero ret | Brittantous. Next, a brilliant Roman matron of lofty rank and abominable life fell in tove | with him. She was Poppaea—a far different sort of sweetheart from and Acte. Poppaeca was as ambitious as was Agrippina herself. And she resdived to be Empress. Her power over Nero was for a time boundless. She frightened him into having Aer:ppina (who hated Poppaca) murdered and into divoraing Octavia and secretly onlering the discarded wife's death. Then, every obstacle to their union being cleared away, Nero and Poppsea wero married. As though Heaven's wrath were aroused by this series of hideous crimes, one disaster after another fell upon the empire. The Roman legions were driven from Armenia, Pompeli was destroyed “by earthquake end @ Vesuvian eruption. In 64 Rome was swept by a terrible fire. Nero was charged (rightly or not) with etarting this conflagration for his own amusement. Tae People were stirred to such fury by {t that he not only dented all guilt tm the matter but laid the blame upon Christians, whom he hunted down Uke wil@ beasts and sinughtered by the hundreds with unspeakable tortures, His reign had become so unbearable that the whole nation murmured. There was a plot to kill him. Hearing of it, Nero grew panicstricken and ordered wholesale executions, including that of his old tutor, Seneca. To a fit of mantacal rage he kicked Poppaea to death. Then he proposed marriage to another patrician, Antonia ty name. Antonia was perhaps the only woman whe ever came within the scope of the Imperial heartbreaker’s fase ;cinations without ylelding to them. She refused to marry him. He ordered her put to death. | He next married Messalina Statitte, who had fallen in love with him some time before and whose husband Nero promptly got rid of by having him killed, He soon tired of Messalina and turned to new loves. In fact, he wasted so much | time in love making that he neglected to put down various revolts in different parts of the empire, unt!l the revolts had swelled into a revolution that drove him from the throne, He killed himself to avoid capture; dying In 6S, at the age of thirty. Of all the many women who had loved him in ‘his hour of greatness none save Acte remembered him now. At risk of her life thie brave girl, whom he had long ago flung aside like a castoff glove, rescued his body from profanation and Gave it honorable burial, of My Lady’s Coiffure | H | That depends entirely on tho person to whom It belongs.
