Syllabus

<p>Judicial Notice—Immaterial Error.—On the trial of an infomation-for burglary the District Attorney was permitted to read in evidence Doctor Ayres’ American Almanac for 1882, to prove the time when the sun rose on the morning of the alleged offense.</p> <p>Held: The fact for the proof of which the almanac was offered was one-of those facts of which a Court may take judicial notice; formal proof of it was therefore unnecessary.</p> <p>Id.—Objection to Evidence.—A party objecting to evidenee.must specify the ground of his objection; if he does not there is no error in overruling it, and an exception taken to the ruling is not revisable on appeal.</p>
