SUGGESTIVE QUESTIONS.
MORGANTON, N. {

To the Editor of the Alexandria Gazette:
There are few questions in ethic,
suggested to our minds by the present
state of affairs which are growing ext
gent in their demands for recognition
and perhaps you can help us to solu
ton.
L those women whom We have left
to the mercy OF our savage allies in Gu
ba and the Philippines were to commit
suicide after killing their girl children
would it be sin?
If the men left helpless to protect
tbe r women should kill. them sud
heir children would it be reprehensi.
b e murder?
Again, if we women of America, feel
ingifor our sfllict d sistels-4nd all SUI
ferna women, Turk or Jew or Catholic
or Protestant are our sisters-if we
sh. uid raise q voice in depunciation
would it be treason Treason is sin.
We who were ia the track Of Sher
mans army know the blood-curdline
horrors that occurred. Yet some OF
the officers were gentlemen, who would
have saved the women if they could.
suppose Shermsn's Is b army corps,
composed of all birds, as it wss, had
been armed by the United States aud
sat upon Us women without officers eX
cept OF their own choosing. This is
the condition of those poor women in
our conquered territory. Butthe voice
of no woman has been heard in their
behalf. Yet We are Christians.
A HORRIFIED WOMAN.

PArrLE WITH FERoCIoUs RATs.-I

PArTLE WITH FERoCIoUs RATs.-II
was the shocking fate Of Henry Burke,
of No. 1926 Richmond street, to be
frigh,fuIly enawed by rats while asleep
10 a stable near his home yesterday
afternoon, and later to fight the hungry
rodents most vigorously before they
would abandon their attack.
Wearied after a hard days work,
Burke had fixed his horses comfortably
for the night, and, lying down on bed
of straw near by, had fallen asleep.
Shortly afterwards be was awakened
and shocked to find himself surrounded
by seemingly half-famished rats thtt
had bitten him repeatedly on the face
and arms and started numerous little
streams of blood.
Frightened and amazed, ne tried to
shake the rats of; but they continued
viciously to attack him. With a club
he fought them vigorously for several
minutes and killed several of them be-
fore the others, taking fright, abandon
ed their attack.
Burke, whose clothing was in tatters,
had been bitten iu meny places, and
physicians at St. Mary's Hospital fear
he will be dis6gured for life, even if
blood poisoning should not intervene.
