    [Ed. Note. — For other cases, see- Criminal Law, Cent. Dig. § 3204.]
    'Appeal froni- Harris County Court, at Law; Murray B. Jones, Judge.
    J. P. Parris was convicted of swindling, and he appeals.
    Affirmed.
    E. B. Hendricks, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.
   DAVIDSON, P. J.

Appellant was convicted of swindling, and his punishment assessed at 30 days in jail in addition to a fine of $25.

The record is before us without a statement of facts or bill of exceptions. There is nothing in the motion for a new trial that can be considered in the absence of evidence. There is a motion for a continuance in the’ record, but a bill of exceptions was not reserved to the court’s refusal to grant it. Therefore it cannot be considered.

The judgment is affirmed.
