 New Trial.

Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald.
 Tuscaloosa, Aug. 1S-Tom and Charley Lewis, charged with the killing of Joe Bearers, had their preliminary trial be-. fore Justice Richard H. Little yesterday. They were remanded to jail without tail to await the action of the grand jury. Tom Lewis, who is said to have stood by while his brother did the shooting, has sued out a writ of habeas corpus and will have a hearing before Judge Mayfield next Fri day.
 The case of Alvin Stoneking vs. the state from Tuscaloosa law and equity court, was reversed and remanded by the supreme court Monday. Stoneking killed A. s. Lallande for a trifling matter last Septem- Der without giving Lallande a chance to defend himself. Popular feeling ran high against Stoneking and when his case was tried he was given ten years in the peni- tentiary. Sheriff Shirley says that Stone king is cheered at the thought of a new trial and his friends also are encouraged They think that prejudice by now may have subsided and the prisoner will get off altogether, at least be granted a lighter sentence.

6<92 NOT DEFICIENT
 IN GOOD TASTE A Beautiful Greensboro Girl Had Splendid Foresight THE FIRST ROBSON KISS
Was Tucked by a Brown-Haired Brown-Eyed Miss Just Sweet Sixteen-Story of How
 It Happened"
Special Dispatch to The Age Herald.

Special Dispatch to The Age Herald.
 Greensboro Ala, Aug. 1S.-And now comes correspondent of Cincinnati pa per who claims that the Long Beach girl from St. Louis was not the last girl to ask and receive a kiss from Hobson, but that the credit is due an Atlanta girl, who kissed him at the Kimball house in the presence of his mother and sister.
 To vindicate the truth of history, and to prove that the girls of Greensboro are not deficient in good taste this story Is given. The St. Louis and Atlanta girls are away behind the time in this matter. It was a brown-h haired, brown-eyed girl of Greensboro, just sweet sixteen, with dim ples that would craze an Anchorite, who enjoyed this honor, some months ago, be- fore Hobson became the hero of the Merri- mac for which she deserves the more hon. or, because she had the wisdom and fore sight to see in him the elements of hero, and did not wait until the halo of this glorious achievement was thrown around him, and lent an additional charm to his persoa.
 How It Happened
 It happened thusly: Some months ago when Rich was at home, this young girl who would not have her name blazoned to the world for all the wealth of the Klon- dike-went to see Mrs. Hobson ostensibly, but in reality Rich. She innocently ex- pressed her astonishment at not meet ing the galalnt young man, and as she left, demurely asked the permission of the mother to kiss the son, when they z which was readily given.
 As she stepped to the front door whom should she meet but the young hero him. self. Blushingly she stated the permis- sion of the mother, and hardly were the words spoken before Rich, equal to all emergencies plucked kiss, saying there was no necessity for asking permission of any one, not even his motfer
 This is a true story, which would never have been given to the public if some persons had not published to the world claims of an honor to which they are not entitled, and which rightly belongs to one of the loveliest girls in Greensboro, where lovely girls are as thick as blackberries in spring.
