Head Matter:
BACHMAN v. STATE.
(No. 9359.)
(Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
June 24, 1925.
Reinstated Oct. 28, 1925.)
Pearce, Stewart & Triplett, for appellant. Tom Garrard, State’s Atty., and Grover C. Morris, Asst. State’s Atty., both of Austin, for the State.

Opinion:
BAKER, J.
The appellant was indicted in the district court of Lubbock county, charged with manufacturing intoxicating liquor, and convicted and given five years in the penitentiary.
The recognizance entered into in this case recites that the appellant was charged, by indictment duly presented in said court, with the offense "unlawfully transporting intoxicating liquor, a felony, and has been tried and convictéd of such felony," etc. It will be observed from said recognizance that it states another and a different offense from that charged in the indictment, and is therefore fatally defective, and for this reason this appeal is' dismissed. The appellant, however, is given 15 days within which to prepare and file a proper bond under article 923, O. G. P., otherwise the mandate will issue.
PER CURIAM. The foregoing opinion of the Commission of Appeals has been examined by the Judges of the Court of Criminal Appeals and approved by the court.
