GIRL TWICE ATTEMPTS LIFE
Daughter of Rich Bostonian Tries
Suicide in Vain.
NOW AT M0NADN0CX HOTEL
Defying; Father, Marries Ball Flrnyer,
tomes te Omaha for DlTorce,
Spends Money, Works as Do
mestic, Drinks Poison.
Mrs. Bernard Cassldy, wife of a ball
player, formerly Miss Lorma Werner,
daughter of Dr. J. O. Werner, a promi
nent Boston dentist, with an office at 172
Commonwealth avenue, a child of culture
and refinement, graduate of a girl's semi
nary at Springfield, Mass., lies in a room
of severely simple furnishings at the
Monadnock hotel. Fifteenth street and
Capitol avenue, recovering from two at
tempta at suicide. She has passed the
danger point and Is now able to sit up for
a few minutes at a time.
The story of this life. Just 21 years old.
reads like a novel. Told by the young
woman herself. It is epitomized thus:
Born and reared in a typically refined New
England home, with never a want tin
supplied, educated In a girl's school, she
lost herself in the charms of Bernard
Cassldy, an outfielder for Lowell and other
New England baso ball teams and finally
became his wife. For this her father
threatened to disinherit her. Abused by
her husband, who degenerated after his
marriage and lost his prestige as a ball
player, the girl was forced to leave him.
On her father's advice she came to Omaha
to seek a divorce. Her resources gave out
and her pride forbade her asking for more
money from home, so she sought work as
a domestic at the home of Dr. A. V.
Laird, 1809 Farnam street. She was sent
there by the Young Women's Christian as
sociation and she worked a week and told
her story there. In despair she attempted
suicide and fate triumphed twice in her
favor.
W ill Not Try it A vain.
"I will not try it again," said the
pretty girl, with a smile curling her Hps,
lurched by the deadly drug.
"Will I go back east when I get up?"
she asked in response to an Inquiry. "Cer
tainly not. I will stay right here. Mrs.
Baxter (proprietress of the Monadnock)
has been good to me and I like the west."
Mrs. Cassldy was at the Midland hotel on
North Sixteenth street when she took the
first poison. That was Monday night.
She drank some laudanum. It strangled
her and was emitted before getting into
the stomach. She tried again, but either
her nerve or the poison again failed. Dr.
Fltzgihbon, police surgeon, was called and
treated her. The matter was kept per
fectly quiet.
"At the request of the Midland hotel
people I left there and camo here to the
Monadnock. where I had been three days
before," rTsrld the young woman. "I was
half dead, but Mrs. Baxter took me In and
has been bk kind to me as she could be.
I wrote to papa when I took the poison,
telling him everything. He haa been a
good father, rr.uch better than I have been
a daughter. But 1 have not been so very
wicked.
Becomes mm Ardent Kan.
"You see, I became an ardent fan, oh,
so wild. I would rather go to see a cme
of ball than do most anything else. And
then I met Bernard.
"No F-ernard will not bother me here. He
will only die laughing when he learns what
I have done. Nor will papa come out,
now that he know. I am alive, but I am
looking for some financial assistance from
him. He sent me $.5, which I got yester
day. You think that's strange, since he
Is a rich man? Well, I thought I was in
big luck to get that much from him. He
feels terribly toward me."
Mrs. Cassidy's throat la burned Inside
and out from the poison. So are her lips.
She scarcely speaks above a whisper, but
Is In Jovial spirits. Bhe Is a beautiful
girl of pronounced brunette type and has
the typical Bostonese accent and the evi
dence of education and culture in every
word.

HOLMES IS FOUND GUILTY
Yoisz Lawyer Convicted of Kuibcz-sllog-
Fonda Collected for
a Client.
Disregarding his Insanity plea, the Jury
In district criminal court found William
H. Holmes guilty of embezzling $Bi7 be
longing to Joseph Schwenk, his client.
Coupled with the verdict was a recommen
dation of leniency.
The Jury went out at 11:10 a. m. and tho
verdict was received at 2 p. m., after the
Jurors had returned from dinner. It Is un
derstood the first ballot stood 10 to 2 for
conviction and only three ballots were re
quired. Holmes Is a young lawyer who had prac
ticed In Omaha for four years with bright
prospects. He is a graduate of the legal
department of the t'niverslty of Iowa and
of Yale. In tho w!er of J907 he began to
dissipate and became Involved In a number
of questionable transactions. In March ho
fled to Ogden, where he took an assumed
name and lived until June, when he was
discovered and brought back to Omaha.
He admitted appropriating the money,
but pleaded insanity. In support of his
pica ho Introduced evidence showing his
grandmother, his uncle and his father had
all been in an asylum at Augusta, Me.,
and his uncle and father had died there.
A number of associates testified that he
had acted peculiarly both before and after
his arrest. Others with whom he had
worked declared on the witness stand ho
was perfectly sane.
In his closing argument, County Attorney
English ridiculed the Insanity plea, saying
to entertain it seriously would be a reflec
tlo on his and the Jury's intelligence.
Judge Sears instructed the Jury if It
found Holmes sane enough to distinguish
between right andwrong he was not In
sane. Tailor Held as Inreniilary.
JOHNSTOWN, Pa.. Feb. IS. Charged

right of Issuing bonds In the sum of $5o.OOO
for this purpose, providing tho proposition
carries at the polls. The Issuance of these
bonds was voted upon by the people last
fall, but was lost, due In the opinion of E.
J. Cornish, member of the board, to their
not understanding what the funds were to
be used for.
On account of thefe being plenty of
money in the county road fund, duo to the
paying In of the Inheritance tax, no road
fund levy will be made this year, thereby
cutting down the funds of the Park board.
But under legislative provision It cannot
touch the Inheritance tax which Is held
now to be for the exclusive use of country
roads, though the money was paid In from
estates left by residents of the city.
The charter provides that when Improve

walks adjacent to parks and parkways the
cost shall be paid out of a special fund to
be raised by the voting of bonds. The sum
so raised shall not bo used for purchasing
adidtional lands for parks.
