The facts shown in the record are very meager. It is sufficient to say that at best they only show an unexplained killing. “All prisoners shall be bailable by sufficient sureties, unless for capital offenses when the proof is evident.” Bill of Rights, Sec. 11, State Constitution. - Since the case of Ex parte Newman, 38 Tex. Crim. Rep. 164, this Court has uniformly held that on an application by habeas.corpus for bail, in a capital case, the burden of proof to establish the fact that the proof is evident is not upon relator but upon the State. The rules governing cases of this character have been so frequently stated that any discussion here we feel would be profitless. They will be found clearly stated in Ex parte Littleton, 88 Tex. Crim. Rep. 614. We do not deem it expedient or necessary to discuss this case further than to say that in our opinion the State failed to discharge the burden which the law. places upon it in cases of this character.

Bail is granted relator in the sum of $10,000.00.

Judgment reversed and relator granted bail as aforesaid.
