G. A. JOHNSON v. STATE.
(No. 9142.)
(Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
Jan. 14, 1925.
Rehearing Denied March 18, 1925.)
Appeal from Criminal District Court. Williamson County.; James R. Hamilton, Judge.
J. F. Taulbee, of Georgetown, for appellant.
Tom Garrard, State’s Atty., and Grover O. Morris, Asst. State’s Atty., both of Austin, for the State.

Opinion:
LATTIMORE, J.
Appellant was convicted in the criminal district court of Williamson county of driving an automobile while intoxicated, and his punishment fixed at 90 days in the county jail and a {fine of $100. The record is before us without a statement of facts or bill of exceptions. The indictment appears to sufficiently charge the offense. We observe, however, that the judgment finds appellant guilty of the offense of driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating' liquor. It is not an offense for one to so drive such vehicle, except upon .a public highway. The judgment will bo reformed, so as to adjudge the defendant guilty of driving a motoT vehicle upon a public highway of this state while intoxicated, and, as reformed, there being no error in the record, an affirmance will be ordered.
