<p>Criminal Law. Evidence. Other offenses. Admissibility. Oode 1906, section 1762.</p> <p>Where a defendant is tried on the charge of acting as agent for the sale of intoxicating liquors, it is reversible error to allow the state to prove that defendant had acted as such agent at other times. Code 1906, section 1762, authorizing the state on a trial for a violation of the law by the sale of liquor, to prove more than one offense occurring anterior to the time laid in the indictment, has no application where the charge is for acting as agent for such sale.</p>
