Syllabus

<p>Criminal Law. Evidence of other offense held not admissible in prosecution for keeping of liquor.</p> <p>On a trial for unlawfully having possession of intoxicating liquors, in violation of chapter 189, Laws of 1918, it was error to introduce in evidence tire finding of liquors on a former occasion, constituting a separate and distinct offense. The provisions of section 1762, Code of 1906 (section 2098, Hemingway’s. Code), have no application to the mere keeping of liquor in violation of law.</p>
