The confession of error is sustained. The variance was fatal. The description of the house as \u201cused and occupied .by Till Shaw\u201d was sufficient, but proof of the breaking and entering of Jim Ward\u2019s saloon, not shown to have been connected in any way with the house used and occupied by Till Shaw, and with which saloon Till Shaw was not shown to have any relation, does not sustain a conviction upon the indictment.

There is no proof whatever that the building was owned, used or occupied by Till Shaw, nor that the object of the intended larceny was his property.
