    Claude TERRY v. STATE.
    (No. 8245.)
    (Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    Jan. 23, 1924.)
    Appeal from District Court, El Paso County; W. D. Howe, Judge.
    Clarence Eolsom, A. T. Folsom, and W. H. Fryer, all of El Paso, for appellant. Tom Garrard, State’s Atty., and Grover C. Morris, Asst. State’s Atty., both of Austin, for the State.
   LATTIMORE, J.

Appellant was convicted in the district court of El Paso county of rape, and his punishment fixed at five years in the penitentiary. Appellant was charged with statutory rape, the prosecutrix being a girl 16 years old at the time of the commission of the alleged offense. The proof shows.that appellant drove with the girl in a car to El Paso, and that they procured apartments and held themselves out as husband and wife for several months. The girl reluctantly testified that at said apartment and on the first night after their arrival in El Paso appellant had carnal connection with her, .that being the first occasion of such conduct on her part with any man. There appear a number of special charges, which were refused but the record reflects no exception to such refusal. There are four bills of exception, the first and second of which are in question and answer form, and under the uniform decisions of this court cannot be considered. The remaining two bills of exception are to arguments of the district attorney. . We have carefully examined each of said bills, and find nothing in them calling for a reversal of this case. The judgment will be affirmed.
