Coon meat looks and tastes some
thing like guinea fowl, being dark and
tough unless fixed up right. A coon is
more dainty and precise than a pos
sum about what it eats. A possum.

of carcass.

New DRAFT Law Intended 10 Raise
Armies, Not to Prosecute or
Persecrte Widows.

Friends OF Mrs. J. 3. Gilbert Of
Giibert's hotel. ON reading newspaper
accounts Of the hearing before United
States Commissioner F1egenhefmer,
expressed surprise that Mrs. Gilbert
should have been held for the grand
Jury on charges of making false affl-
davfts. and arc satisfied that the
charge against her will not be sus-
tanned.
II Is pointed out that the purpose
OF the Heiecttve service act, being pri-
yuartly TO raise armies rather than TO
prosecute or prosecute widows, the
purpose of the law has been accom-
plished In this case, both OF Mrs Gil
bert's sons being now In tho service,
One OF them entered the military at
seventeen. after his mother had sign
ed a permit for him TO do so. and Ia
now with the Virginia troops at Fort
Oglethorpe, Georgia.
Mrs. Gilbert states that she had no
desire to evade the law, and that 81
the government needs her hotel for
hospital. or II there IL any other
service she can render the country,
she would gladly do so.
Her friends believe that In signing
the affidavits In question. regardless
of the technicalfties of the new law.
with the terms of which she was un-
familiar. that Mrs. Gilbert did only
what ninety-ntne mothers out of a
hundred would have done under the
circumstance and they tender her
not only their sympathy, but their ac-
tive efforts. to the end that she may
receive ciemency in case she has tech =
nically violated the terms of the new
draft law.
Mrs. Gilbert has two minor daugh-
ters under her care. who need her
attention. The notoriety given her
has been TO her matter OF great
worry. and her friends assure her they
