   CHRISTIAN, Judge.

The offense is driving an automobile on a public highway while intoxicated; the punishment, a fine of $200 and confinement in jail for 90 days.

No bills of exception are brought forward.

The proof on the part of the state was to the effect that, on the 23d of November, 1936, appellant, while drunk, drove his automobile on the Waco-Hillsboro highway. Appellant did not testify, but introduced witnesses who expressed the opinion that he was not drunk on the occasion in question.

The evidence is deemed sufficient to support the conviction.

The judgment is affirmed.

The motion for rehearing is therefore overruled.
