During the pendency of the application,-and before the entry of judgment, the curative act of June 14, 1917, was passed and became effective.\nThe questions presented here are the same as those presented in People v. Mathews, (post, p. 85,) and for the reasons there given the judgment of the county court is reversed and the cause is remanded, with directions to overrule the objections.\nReversed and remanded, with-directions.\nCartwright, Dunn and Duncan, JJ., dissenting.",
