This action was commenced in the justice court before H. J. Brown, a justice of the peace of Ada .township, Pont-otoc county, Okla., by R. L. McGuyre, as plaintiff, against .Charles E. Sehaff, as receiver of the properties of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway Company, as defendant, to recover the sum of $184 as damages sustained by ,the plaintiff because the defendant, in the operation of its railroad, had killed 23 goats belonging to the plaintiff, which were of the value of $8 per head. Judgment was rendered' in favor of the plaintiff and against the defendant in the justice court, from which judgment the defendant appealed to the district court of Pontotoc county.

When 'the case was called for trial in the district court, a jury was waived and the cause submitted to the court on the pleadings and the evidence. When the plaintiff had introduced his evidence and rested, the defendant demurred to the plaintiff’s evidence. The demurrer was overruled and defendant excepted, and then proceeded with the introduction of his evidence. At the conclusion of the evidence the district court rendered judgment in favor of the plaintiff and against the defendant in the ’ suin’ of $184.

The defendant filed his motion for a new trial, which was overruled by the trial court, saved his exceptions and perfected this appeal and appears here as plaintiff in error. He assigns 12 specific assignments of error, but discusses them under two pioppsitiops:

“(1) Under the evidence the plaintiff was not entitled! to recover and ,the trial court erred in overruling defendant’s" demurrer to plaintiff’s evidence and in refusing to render judgment in favor of the defendant.

“(2) The court erred in overruling the defendant’s motion for a new trial.”

We .do not agree with the contention of the plaintiff in error.

We have examined the record, and the evidence introduced by the plaintiff in the district court was sufficient to make out a prima facie case in favor of the plaintiff and against ..the defendant; therefore it was not error for the 'trial court to overrule the demurrer of the defendant.

This is a law action for the recovery of money, wherein an issue of fact is joined, and would be a proper case to submit to a jury. The parties waived a jury and submitted the case to the court. On an appeal to this court, under section 20, article 7, of the Constitution of Oklahoma, the same rule ob *42 tains as though the ease had been tried by a jury, and this court will not weigh the evidence. 'Said section reads as follows:

“In all issues of fact joined in any court, all parties may waive the right to have the same determined 'by jury; in which case the findings of the judge, upon the facts, shall have the force and effect of a verdict by jury.”

We have examined the record, and find the evidence reasonably tends to support the judgment of the trial court; therefore the judgment of the (trial court is affirmed.
