 Previous Crime Evidence Barred.
 R. L. Neill, Flagstaff city marshal, L1 lao Breen-Lewis drug store early in April, that Nash had bought goods under the assumed name of Tex Kicker, saying that they were for his wife, then sick at the Commercial; that Nash then claimed he was cowboy working for l.. c. Morgan, a mythical person 40 miles south of Flagstaff. Neilrs testi- mony was cut short by objections from Attorney Schenck.
 U. J. Lewis, now managing partner of the Breen-Lewis drug store, took the stand, carrying the book in which the sale was recorded. Identified Nash. His testimony also cut short by ob- jections.
 The objections were on the ground that when a person is on trial for a crime it is unlawful to admit into evil dence for the sake of prejudicing his case any evidence having to do with a preceding crime or misdemeanor.
 Though the testimony of Neill and Lewis was stricken from the record, the jury got the gist of it.
 John O. Parson, constable of Flag staff precinct, and Frank Thomas, Flagstaff transfer man, both swore that they saw Nash, in April, 1920, in the office of the Shamrock Taxi company, talking with Joe Bender. Both were cross-examined by MT. Wilson, Thomas especially on how he knew it was in April that he saw Nash there. He couldn't tell just how he knew it was April, but stuck to it that it was about that time. Neither witness remembered seeing Al Peck or Cliff Kramer in the office at the time.
 Mir. Parsons, asked about the trees five miles beyond Canyon Padre bridge on the Winslow road, said that there were no trees at that point, which is three and a half to four miles from the nearest trees.
 Frank Goodman, assistant county engineer, drew sketch of the road from this side of the bridge to the Rabbit tanks. He said that the tim Der line is about 5000 feet beyond Canyon Padre bridge and that beyond the timber line there is only grass and sagebrush.
