The conviction is for the offense of vagrancy; punishment fixed at a fine of one hundred dollars.

The recognizance is defective in that it fails to comply, in substance or in form, with the statute, Article 919, Code of Criminal Procedure. It is particularly faulty in failing' to state the punishment assessed.

The State’s motion to dismiss upon this ground is sustained.

The appeal is dismissed.

Dismissed.
