    Carter LINDSAY, Appellant, v. STATE of Texas, Appellee.
    (No. 11287.)
    Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    June 23, 1928.
    Eor former opinion, see 5 S.W.(2d) 722.
   On Motion for Rehearing.

LATTIMORE, J.

We think sufficient justification set up for the failure to file this motion within the fifteen days allowed by statute.

The matters complained of were passed upon by us in our original opinion. The charge against appellant was running a disorderly house. The indictment herein was returned February 23, 1927. We think it not erroneous for the court to allow in evidence two bail bonds made in January by the woman who had charge of the house in question, upon which bail bonds this appellant appeared as surety. The state had the right upon the trial of this case to take into consideration any facts offered prior to the return of the indictment which legitimately showed appellant’s knowledge of or interest in the running of said bawdy house upon his premises.

The bill of exceptions, complaining of the introduction of testimony given by the witness Sturdivant, wholly fails to show the surrounding facts shedding light upon the materiality of the testimony complained of. An examination of the statement of facts shows that the testimony complained of was material. Sturdivant was an officer, and found in the house and upon the premises, claimed to be run as a bawdy house, a drunken man whose actions and .conduct were pertinent. The testimony showed that appellant was on and around the premises either immediately at that time or shortly thereafter. We find no error in the charges complained of. The learned trial judge fuüy protected the rights of appellant in the charge given.

Being unable to agree with the contentions made, the motion for rehearing is overruled.
