    Appeal from Criminal District Court, Dallas County; Barry Miller, Judge.
    S. L. Baker was convicted of rape, and appeals.
    Affirmed.
    C. E. Lane, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.
   HARPER, J.

Appellant was convicted of rape on a girl under 15 years of age, and his punishment assessed at 25 years’ confinement in the penitentiary.

There are many grounds assigned in the motion for new trial, but if he reserved any bills of exception they are not copied in the record; consequently we cannot review the grounds complaining of the admission or rejection of any testimony.

No statement of facts accompanies the record, and in the absence of a statement of facts we presume the court charged the law, and ail the law, applicable to the evidence.

The judgment is affirmed.
