    ALSBROOK v. STATE.
    (Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.
    April 30, 1913.)
    Appeal from Dallas County Court, at Law; W. F. WMtehurst, Judge.
    Corbett Alsbrook was convicted of keeping a disorderly house, and he appeals.
    Affirmed.
    Walker & Williams, of Dallas, for appellant. C. E. Lane, Asst. Átty. Gen., for the State.
   PRENDER.GAST, J.

Appellant was convicted under articles 496 and 500, P. 0., for keeping a disorderly house, and Ms puMshment assessed at a fine of $200 and 20 days in jail.

Article 496 on this subject is: “A ‘disorderly house’ is * * * any house in which spirituous, vinous or malt liquors are sold or kept for sale, without first having obtained a license under the laws of tMs state to retail such liquors.” Article 500 on this subject is: “Any person who shall, directly * * * keep or be concerned in keeping, or aid or assist or abet in keeping, * * * a disorderly house, in any house, building, edifice or tenement, * * * shall be deemed guilty of keeping, * * * a disorderly house, * * » and punished by a fine of $200, and by confinement in the county jail for 20 days for each day he shall keep, or be concerned in keeping * * * such disorderly house.”

The uncontradicted evidence in this case overwhelmingly establishes without doubt that appellant did keep such house in a certain house in the city of Dallas, Tex., and had no license therefor. It is unnecessary to give the evidence. The court in an apt, full, and fair charge submitted everything that the evidence raised, and the jury could not have done otherwise than convict appellant, if they were governed by the law and evidence. None of appellant’s special charges, other than the ones the court did give, should have been given, and the court properly refused to give them. The count of the complaint and information under which appellant was charged, and which the court submitted, and under which he was convicted, clearly follows the law and the approved forms, and is unquestionably sufficient.

There being no other question calling for any discussion, the judgment is affirmed.
