The plaintiff in error was convicted in the Quarter Sessions court of Cumberland county on an indictment charging him in one count of unlawfully selling liquor for beverage purposes and in another count for having in his possession, unlawfully, liquor for beverage purposes. Numerous grounds are urged for a reversal of the judgment. First, that there was no proof of the commission of the crime alleged in the indictment by the plaintiff in error. There was ample proof that liquor was sold by the plaintiff in error and that he had a legal possession of liquor to be used for beverage purposes. Second, that the verdict is against the weight of the evidence. We do not think it is. The third ground is that the court erred in refusing to allow the withdrawal of a juror because upon the demand of the- state for the arrest of a witness for the defense, while the said witness was under cross-examination by the state.

*624What took place was that on cross-examination of a witness, the prosecutor said: “You stay right here, Mr. Parent, you take charge of this man. He will tell you where he got the whiskey if he can. The Court — Strike that out. Mr. McDonald — I take exception right now to the remarks of the prosecutor. Mr. Tuso — I withdraw the remarks. Mr. McDonald — I ask to withdraw a juror. Court — I will deny that motion. The remarks have been withdrawn and stricken out.”

While the remarks of the prosecutor were highly improper, the court immediately upon the asking of the questions, struck them out, and the prosecutor immediately withdrew the remarks. It was then that counsel asked to withdraw a juror. This application was not proper. The application should have been made to the court to declare a mistrial; but even if the defendant was entitled to ask for the withdrawal of a juror, since it appears that the remarks were withdrawn and stricken out by the court, there is nothing left for the plaintiff in error upon which to base a ground for reversal. Moreover, we are unable to perceive any prejudicial injury to the defendant in his defense on the merits of the case.

We have examined the remainder of the assignments of errors and specification of causes for reversal and find them to be without substance.

Judgment is affirmed.
