The spelling Nicholas's is a correct possessive for something that is a trait, action, or possession of the person named Nicholas, e.g. Nicholas's dog.
Some writers seem uncomfortable with using an apostrophe S after a name or Word ending in S (e.g. witness's testimony) because plural nouns ending in S normally use only the apostrophe (e.g. judges' salaries).
