Hadley, J.

Appellant was fined, under the Nicholson law, for permitting a person other than a member ‍‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​​​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‍of his family to enter his saloon on the Pourth of July.

The only error assigned is the overruling of his motion in arrest of judgment.

The Attorney-General calls attention tó appellant’s noncompliance ‍‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​​​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‍with the fifth clause of rule twenty-two of this court, and insists upon the rule’s enforcement. ’ The motion in arrest calls in question the legal sufficiency of the charge to state ‍‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​​​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‍a public offense.

Neither the affidavit upon which the judgment is founded *674nor the motion in arrest is set ont in appellant’s brief, nor is any attempt made to state therein the substance ‍‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​​‌​​​​​​‌​‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​​​​​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‍of either the affidavit or motion. There is, therefore, no question presented for decision. Henderson v. Henderson (1906), 165 Ind. 666; American Food, Co. v. Halstead (1905), 165 Ind. 633; Springer v.
