A complaint was filed against the defendant in the city police court of the city of Lead charging Mm with violating the provisions of Section 69, Chap. 4, of Ordinance No. 94, of the said city of Lead. To this complaint the defendant pleaded not guilty, and subsequently a motion was made by him to quash the complaint on several grounds therein stated. This motion was denied and a trial was had, resulting in a verdict of guilty. From the judgment entered thereon the defendant appealed to the circuit court of Lawrence county, and upon the trial in that court he was again found guilty by the verdict of the jury. Thereupon the defendant made a motion in arrest of judgment. This motion was overruled, and the defendant was adjudged to pay a fine of $20, and the costs, taxed at the sum of $94.35. It was further adjudged that, in default in payment of the fine and costs, the defendant should be imprisoned at hard labor in the city jail of said city of Lead for a period of 90 days, and that he stand committed until the sentence should be complied with.

The appellant contends that the complaint was insufficient, in that several offenses are sought to be charged against the defendant in the same complaint, and also for the reason that the complaint does not charge the defendant with the commission of any offense under the laws of the State of South Dakota or the public ordinances of the city of Lead. Whether we treat the action as a civil or criminal action, the motion to quash came too late, the same being made after the defendant had pleaded generally to the complaint, except e¡,s to the last groupd *143of the motion, — that' no offense was charged under the laws of the state or the ordinances of the city of Lead. This last ground of the motion was clearly untenable. The complaint does charge the defendant with the violation of Section 69 of the city ordinance. Substantially the same objections were made in arrest of judgment. Treating this as a criminal action, this motion in arrest was made too late. Section 7452, Comp. Laws, provides that a motion in arrest of judgment may be founded on any of the defects in the indictment mentioned in Section 7292, unless the objection to the indictment has been waived by a failure to demur. The defendant, as we have seen, failed to demur to the complaint at the proper time. We are of the opinion, however, that this action should be treated as a civil action, under the decisions of City of Huron v. Carter, 5 S. D. 4, 57 N. W. 947; City of Sioux Falls v. Kirby, 6 S. D. 62: 60 N. W. 156, 25 L. R. A. 621; City of Lead v. Klatt, 11 S. D. 109, 75 N. W. 896. Section 69 of the ordinance referred to does not contain any of the essential elements of a nuisance as defined by our statutes (Comp. Laws, § 6632,) and cannot be regarded as re-enacting the statutory provisions. Without setting out at length the sections of the ordinance referred to, it must suffice to say that under the ordinance the complaint stated facts sufficient to show a violation of the ordinance. The court wras right, therefore, in denying the motion in arrest of judgment.

It is further contended by the appellant that the judgment so far as it imposes “imprisonment at hard labor,” is not warranted by any ordinance of the city of Lead or any statute of this state. In this contention we are of the opinion that the appellant i§ correct, No ordinance of the city has been called *144to our attention authorizing the court to enter this judgment against the defendant, and we cannot presume that any such ordinance exists, as the city council of that city is not authorized to provide by ordinance for any such imprisonment. Section 4, Art. 5, Chap. 37, Laws 1890, provides: “The city council shall have power to provide by ordinance that every person so committed shall be required to work for the corporation at such labor as his or her strength will'permit, not exceeding ten hours each working day; and for such work, the person employed, to be allowed exclusive of his or her board, Si. 25 for each day’s work, on account of such fine and costs.” Presuming, therefore, in favor of the judgment, that the city had adopted an ordinance upon this subject, we can only presume that such ordinance conformed to this section of the statute. It will be seen, therefore, that the court was not authorized to enter a judgment that the defendant be imprisoned at hard labor in the city jail of the said city of Lead for the period of 90 days. So far, therefore, as the record discloses, the court was only authorized to enter a judgment that the defendant be imprisoned in the city jail of the said city of Lead for the period of 90 days. The judgment of the circuit court, therefore, will be modified by striking out the words “at hard labor” in said judgment, and the judgment, as so modified, is affirmed, without costs to either party.
