DEATH OF LITTLE DORRIT.
Mrs. NJ. G. Hayman, Original Of
Dickens Character. Passes AWAY.

LONDON, September ga link with
Charles Dickens has been severed by the
death at Southsea of Mrs. G. M. Hayman,
one of his close personal friends, who is
said by her family to have been the
original of Little Dorrit. She would have
reached her eighty-first birthday next
month.
Mrs. Haymans father was a solicitor
living in London, and was for years an
intimate friend Of Dickens. The novelist
was a frequent visitor at his house and
took keen interest in all the members of
his family.
Mrs. Haymaqs brother. who died while
still lad, is said to have inspired an
other Dickens character, Tiny Tim. The
boy met with an accident while at play,
being impaled on some ratings, but he
was a CHEEKY little fellow in spite Of the
injury that made him a cripple.

for the annual convention in the spring
of 1911.
: The governors of the sixteen southern
states are interested in the movement,
Columbia were requested to select at
least ten of the representative business
men Of the District to attend, the con-
ference and take part in its deliberations
Eleven Of the sixteen governors have
already either appointed delegates or an
nounced their intention of doing SO. The
leading commercial organizations of the
south have also been invited to send rep
resentatives. and the executive committee
itself has sent invitations to certain lead
ing men throughout the south, asking
their attendance and cooperation.
Southern Commercial Congress.
The Southern Commercial Congress is a
movement to stir the south to greater ac-
tivity and to exploit nationally its ad-
vantages: In other words, an extended
chamber of commerce doing for the entire
southern section of the county what a
local chamber does for a community-a
cooperative bureau for assembling and
circulating nationally the broad facts re-
garding industrial, commercial and agri-
cultural possibilities and progress in the
south.

GUARDING THE HEALTH
Of AMERICAN PEOPLE
Uncle Sam Spends Two Mil
lion Dollars Annually
Fighting Disease.

The activities of the public health and
marine hospital service, to which Is in
trusted most of the general work OF
guarding the country against contagion
from abroad and preventing its spread
at home, form the topic of a paper by
Surgeon General Wyman which will be
printed in today's. issue of the public
health report.
Beginning with the outmost circumfer-
ence Of the influence Of the organization,
DR.. Wyman tells Of the protective meas.
ures at foreign ports. He shows that
medical officers of the bureau are To-
Gated in most Of the seacoast cities Of
Asia and South and Central America and
at some Of those Of Europe. The service
is also literally represented in Hawaii.
Porto Rico and the Philippines.
Inspection Of Vessels.
In addition to keeping themselves and
the home office informed regarding the
prevalence Of cholera, yellow fever, small
pox, typhus and plague. these officials are
required to inspect American-bound YES
sells and to issue bills of health. without
which the vessels may not enter Ameri-
can ports. During the last fiscal year
they inspected 16. 766 vessels.
On board ship the regulations of these
officials follow the immigrant, requiring
proper cleanliness and ventilation, and
when the vessel arrives in the United
States it is met by another set of health
service officers. who come either to en-
force the quarantine rules or to assist
the immigration officials in their work.
In the latter capacity the public health
officers last year examined 80. 600 immi-
grants, certifying 10000 of them as de-
fective either mentally or physically.
Fighting Infectious Diseases
The paper abounds in facts relative to
the work of the bureau in preventing the
spread of infectious diseases from one
state to another under the quarantine
law, making especial reference to the
work in connection with recent yellow fe-
yer epidemics and the plague Of infection
on the Pacific coast Of few years ago.
1t was under the direction of this serv-
ice that 255, 10 rats and lis, 3S5 ground
squirrels were destroyed because of the
supposition that these animals were largely
responsible for the spread of this dis
ease.
The maintenance Of this service costs
the United States 100000 annually.
