The Court OF Criminal Appeals says
she aiuEt suffer.

Dallas, Tex, Feb. 9.-The court of
criminal appeals today affirmed the
Judgment OF the Tarrant county dis
trlct court in giving Miss Lola Hlne-
man two years IN the penitentiary for
the theft or $40 in money. watch.
chain and charm, agBregatlng $40 in
value.
This is remarkable case. Miss
Hlneman based her appeal on the plea
that when she was in jail pending trial
for theft she made a deal with the
county attorney under which he was
to dismiss the case against her II she
would testify to certain matters and
things tending to fasten the murder
Of Maggie Twomey, who was found
murdered IN a closet In Fort Worth
two years ago. and also not to prose-
cute her for any connection she might
have had with that murder.
She says that In pursuance Of this
agreement she did testify 10 divers and
eundry lies In the said murder case. as
she really knew nothing about 1t.
thereby fulfilling her part OF tho fon-
tract, but that the county attorney was
guilty OF gross breach OF contract, for
as soon as he got her TO testify an the
murder case he proceeded 20 push the
case against her for theft. She Plead
er tho contract. but the court would not
admit the plea, and the Jury gave her
two years.
The court OF criminal appeals holds
that the lower court did right In re.
fusing TO admit the plea, and Lola
therefore must serve the two years.
