Maxwell, Ch. J.

An opinion was filed in this case in January, 1891, and is reported in 31 Neb., 240 . A rehearing was granted upon certain instructions and the cause again submitted.

It is evident that the penalty is none too severe for the offense committed. The judgment is

Adhered to.

The other judges concur.
