1Opinion of the CourtRice, C. J.

This is an appeal from a final judgment. The record contains no bill of exceptions or reporter’s transcript of the evidence. Appellants’ specifications of error relate solely to the giving of certain instructions by the court and to the refusal to give certain instructions requested by appellants.

In the case of Minneapolis Threshing Machine Co. v. Peterson, 31 Ida. 745, 176 Pac. 99, it is said: “Unless the alleged errors of the court in giving and refusing instructions to the jury are presented by the reporter’s transcript, they can only be reviewed when saved by a bill of exceptions.”
