The record befоre us contains neither a statement of facts nor bills of exception, hence no question is presented for review. It appears, hоwever, that the sentence herein does not conform to the provisions of the indeterminate sentence law,. ‍​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​​​​​​‌​​​​​​​​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​‍Vernon’s Ann. C. C.
