Raphael Semmes, Of the Confeder-
ate States navy. The order follows:
"Cndoubtedly no soldier in the
army Of the Confederacy nor sailor
in its navy contributed as much to
familiarize the inhabitants Of the
globe with the STARS and Bars, the
flag of the Confederate States, as did
the commander Of the Sumpter and
the Alabama. Brief was the life Of
each Of these vessels, but the life Of
each was full Of glorious action, and
the skillful way in which our great
naval leader managed all matters
whether as epert in admiralty, able
seaman or daring commander-re-
dected the highest credit on his ablll-
ties and added lustre to the cause he
represented.
"Too much honor cannot be gwen
such man; and the general COM
nlanding most earnestly urges the va
rious camps Of the Federation, the
United Sons of Confederate Veterans,
the United Daughters Of the Confed-
eracy and the Confederated Southern
Memorial Association, and all kin
dred organizations, to take such ac-
tions as they deem best, so that this
day, the 9th Of September, 1909,
NAV ever be memorable in our an

KILLS ANOTHER MANS WIFE.
Chain Gang Guard Shoots His Form
er Housekeeper.

Spartanburg, August 29.-Mrs. Do
eier Boiter, aged Is years, wife Of
J. R. Boiter, farmer of near Fair
mont, this county, at noon to-day was
shot and killed by Joe Bates, employ
ed by the city as chain gang guard
The shooting occurred at the residence
on Thompson street Of ". P. Cox,
relative of the husband of the de-
ceased. Boiter and his wife had just
driven in the back yard of Mr.. Cox
and as Mrs. Boiter entered the back
door Bates, it is said, ran in at the
front door and shot her dead, firing
five times in all, though only two
shots took effect, one entering the
head and the other one of her shoul-
ders. During the firing bullet struck
the little daughter of Mr.. Cox in one
of her arms, inaicting a painful
wound
Mr.. Cox, attracted by the shooting,
hurried into the house and, seizing
hold Of Bates, held him until police
officers arrived. Mr.. Boiter, crazed
at the sight Of the dead body Of his
wife lying on the floor of the back
porch, made an attack on Bates, it
is said, and would have used him up
pretty badly but for the timely ar
rival of police officers.
Mrs. Boiter was farmerly Docler
Moore, Of this county. Several years
ago she married Hillard Case, of Hot
Springs. n. C. Bates and his wife
separated about two years ago, and
the woman whom he shot today was
employed by him as his cook, so it IS
alleged, and was in his employ for
two years. About two months ago she
left him and married Mr.. Bolter.
While the woman was in the employ
of Bates as cook and housekeeper
they quarelled frequently, the result
of which was that Bates was tried
in the police court on several charges
of cruelty towards the woman, and
fines were imposed aggregating $l50.
Bates claims that some time before
Mrs. Boiter left him she sold his COW
and disposed of lot of blankets,
quilts. etc., to the value Of 500. 1t
is understood that he had brought
suit against the woman and the case
was to have been heard tomorrow.
Bates was for many years mem
ber Of the police force. He was known
as the Sherlock, Holmes Of the de-
partment.
He got into trouble and was dis
missed from the force and appointed
guard of the city chain gang.
