appeal. which. under the new codes.
acts as a stay OF execution. He alleged
errors on the part of the court IN ad-
uniting certain testimony. excluding
evidence and errors of the court in IN
structions to the jury.

the application, says: There Is but
little in the appeal that merits serious
attention. but gravity of the offense Ia
perhaps a reason for treating to some
extent the question which appellants
counsel has called to our attention"
One of the points which the appellants
take up were the remarks of the coun-
| ty attorney dn onis address to the jury.
