” Gets Prison Term
Man Convicted of Forgery by
Writing Own Name Must
Serve Year to 18 Months.
Columbus, Neb., Feb. 18.—Frank
"Williams, 30, former Union Pacific
brakeman who committed forgery
by writing hts own name, Is to serve
net less than one year nor more than
18 months In the pentltenttary. un
der sentence pronounced by Judge
Louis Llghtner In district court.
Williams voluntarily entered a plea
of guilty.
Williams, who obtained a loan of
3200 by telegraph from a man In
Flagstaff, Arlz., by Impersonating
another Frank Williams, who was a
personal friend of the Flagstaff vic
tim, Insists that It lias been his In
tention all the time to pay the money
back.
During his examination, Williams
said he Is married and the father of
twin girls who are now about a year
old, but that he and his wife sep
arated five weeks after the birth of
the twins and he does not know their
present whereabouts.
While driving a taxi In Omaha at
cue time, Williams ran over a woman
who later died from the Injures. He
was absolved of blame by a coroner's
jury holding the accident to have
been unavoidable on his part. He
also was taken Into custody In con
nection with a burglary, but was re
leased without formal charges lodged
Against him.

placed Its muzzle in his mouth,
pulled the trigger Rnd collapsed on
the floor. He was dead.
Judge Crumples.
Judge Morning had crumpled In his
chair.
He regained his poise. He stag
gered from the raised platform and
into his anteroom. Here he col
lapsed on his couch. He died before
doctors could reach his side, the shot
having broken an artery near his
heart.
He leaves a wife and a daughter by
a former marriage. The daughter,
Miss Mildred, Is a Lincoln school
teacher.
The judge was reared on a farm

later in Lincoln. He was a prominent
Mason, a well-known public speaker,
former president of ths Stats Bar
association and successful attorney
in his fight against a Lincoln public

The supreme court her* sdjourned
for an hour in his memory.
Serving Second Term.
Judge Morning was serving his
second,term on the I^ncaster county
district bench. He recently filed for
rd-glectlon.
Everett Rector, 'Wallick’s brother
in law, said after the shooting that
iJValltck has been carrying a revolver
and acting queerly for some time.
Chief of Detectives Anderson said
that, while Walllck has no police
record, he has been in county jail
hefore for contempt of court in re
fusing to pay alimony.
Chief Anderson also gave it as his
opinion that Walllck was not Insane,
as was at first reported.
"I believe he went to the court
room with the deliberate Intention of
killing Judge Morning." he said.
Widely Acquainted.
Judge Morning was widely acquaint
ed in Lincoln, and among the mem
lierahip of the state bar association.
He has come into particular prom
inence recently because of the num
ber and oddity of Injunctions Issued.
He recently enjoined a church from
expelling some of Its members, and
issued a restraining order forbidding
one man to pay attentions to an
other man’s wife.
