In this case the motion for a new trial was overruled on the 12th of January, 1890. This is the judgment complained of as error. The bill of exceptions was certified on the 20th day of January. And no attempt was made, either in the bill of exceptions or the judge’s certificate, to comply with the act approved November 11th, 1889 (Acts of 1889, p. 114), prescribing the manner of taking cases to the Supreme Court. That act declares “ that no case shall be ■ taken to the Supreme Court by bill of exceptions, except in the following manner.” It then proceeds to require the plaintifi in error to specifically set out the errors complained of, and specify only so much of the brief of evidence and such other pai’ts of the record as are material to a clear understanding of those errors. This must be done in the bill of exceptions, and the judge’s certificate must show that the bill of exceptions does specify all of the record material to a clear understanding of the errors
