The- defendant was convicted in the Hannibal Court of Common Pleas of larceny from the dwelling house of Mrs. Hoagland in Hannibal, Missouri, on the 22nd day of March* 1903.

The indictment was returned at the May term,. 1903. The defendant was duly arraigned and pleaded not guilty.

At the September term, 1903, the cause was tried by the court and a jury and a verdict of guilty returned, assessing the defendant’s punishment at two years in the penitentiary.

The testimony shows that Mrs. Hoagland kept a, boarding house; that Asa Shahan,-a travelling peddler,, had a room there and owned a watch which was worth about $58. During the afternoon of March 22, 1903„ one Allen applied for a room and board and was assigned a room. In looking at the rooms, he was inquisitive, desiring to know who occupied thé various-, rooms. He came to supper and went out again. Shahan retired about eleven o ’clock and was awakened’ late in the night or early Sunday morning by some-person moving in his room. He called to know who-it was and thereupon two men ran down the stairs.. Shahan gave the alarm and Mrs. Hoagland saw them-hurrying down the steps. A policeman was summoned and Allen arrested. He afterwards pleaded guilty and was sentenced for robbery. The next day after the robbery the defendant pawned Shahan’s watch to a saloon-keeper by the name of Koch, for two dollars. *191The policeman found the watch at Koch’s and it was identified by Shahan as the one stolen from his room in Mrs. Hoagland’s house the previous night.

The defendant testified he pawned the watch; that he got it from a smooth-faced fellow who said he worked at the now famous cement works at Hannibal; didn’t know the man or his name and has never seen Mm since. He testified he had no occupation but was supported by a brother, who worked for a circus.

The instructions have not been brought to this, court and no exceptions were saved to the overruling of the motions in arrest and for new trial. Accordingly, we have nothing before us but the record proper, and as the indictment was sufficient, and all the steps, as to the arraignment, empannelling of the jury, the receipt of the verdict, and the sentence are in due form, the judgment must be and is affirmed.
