Appellant Mavros appeals from a conviction of being a jointist and a ‍​‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‍sentence to the penir tentiary. Many assignments of error are noted, but the only one which we think requires consideration in this opinion is ‍​‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‍the claim that the court erred in permitting reputation evidence concerning the premises which the appellant was álleged to have maintained as a place for ‍​‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‍the sale of liquor.

*341 The evidence showed sales of intoxicating liquor by the appellant Mavros. Under the rule of State v. Stuttard, 143 Wash. 426, 255 Pac. 663, and State ‍​‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‍v. Radoff, 140 Wash. 202, 248 Pac. 405, this was sufficient to establish actual knowledge of the purpose for which the premises were used, and reputation ‍​‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌​​‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‍evidence was therefore inadmissible.

Judgment reversed.
