In 1908, he self-published a book he apparently thought would be Nobel Prize material: The New Word. He shot himself in November 1926, reportedly after hearing of George Bernard Shaw's Nobel Prize award but maybe because this book didn't do as well as he would have liked. But that is my speculation.
