TO VIRGINIA TROOPS
Artists Invited to Compete for
Memorial Concentrating
Charge of Gettysburg.
special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
RICHMOND, Va, December 1l.-Col.
Thomas Smith of Warrenton today made
formal announcement, secretary OF the
Gettysburg monument commission. that
models and designs for the proposed
monument to Virginia troops to be placed
in what is known as SpangleTs woods,
the point from which Gen. Lee observed
Picketts memorable charge of Cemetery
Ridge, are to be received here January
Is.
The attention Of all artists and designers
is called to the matter and they are re-
auired to present one or more models as
may suit their fancy. The following is
taken from the statement issued by Col
Smith:
1T is the determination of the Virginia
commission that this memorial shall be
record OF all the Virginia troops en-
gagged in the battles at Gettysburg, and
it is desired that the design shall be OF
a form to accomplish this paramount
purpose. The commission requests plans
for a monument surmounted by an eQues-
TRAN figure Of Gen. Robert E. Lee, and
also plans without such equestrian figure,
but effective in achieving the object Of
the INTENDED tTlDule. IHe uiiAi4iiuhA
height of the figure and pedestal, draw
ing or model must not be less than TWEEN
ty-four inches. The names of the de-
signers of the models must not be affixed
to the designs, but some device or cipher
must be used. duplicate OF which, bear
ing the name Of the artist must be for
warded in sealed envelopes to the Gov
ernor of Virginia, as chairman of the Vir-
ginia commission, to be opened only
after the award is made
1.-The design must embody both pedestal
and figure, and estimates must include
foundation and inscription. In case of
drawing alone being submitted, both fig
ure and pedestal will be required, and in
the event of the acceptance of a model.
1t must be presented in the round for
the consideration of the committee. The
cost of the monument must be within the
sum of $4,000. All designs must reach
the governor in Richmond on or before

Cosmic Therapeutics.

From Nautilus.
In every age and every race men have
stumbled on to their relationship with
atmospheric energy, and have demon
strated each I'm his own way. but it re-
mained for the twentieth century inves-
tigation to give us the real key to our
continuous connection and the methods
by which our connection could be dem
onstrated to the whole thinking world
The minds of the past taught us the
existence of an atmospheric environment
and to a degree, manifested our connec-
ton with 1t. but they did so through the
medium OF objective lines of connection
and transference. Today We are finding
the new truth that, even to the most
minute thing, man is able to create his
own environment from atmospheric ener-
gy, lifting his creations aloft in his life
In finite form, through the medium of a
rover which far transcends sight and
touch.
Today we know that the great cosmic
ether in which the whole world lives and
moves is nothing but vast. undifferen-
tiated sea OF energy. This energy is
acting always In formless. electrical cur
rents and these currents are ever wait
ing 10 correspond in motion with any
other currents similar in electrical reac-
ton. either positive or negative. Mans
whole atmospheric environment is formed
OF these currents. And man himself is
a localized, attracting center. registering
in his body and his surroundings just
those electrical reactions with which he
relates under the great cosmic law of
correspondence.

Vexatious Questions.

'In the prosecution of this work many
obstacles were encountered, such as the
refusal of the Indians to give any infor-
nation whatever, and often false state
ments as to the ownership of improve
ments, SO that some errors We're made In
allotting one Indian on his neighbours
land. which. at this time, constitute some
of the most vexatious questions with
which this Office has to deal in bringing
about an adjustment of the matter which
will give each party the lands containing
his improvements. Not only have they re-
fused to take allotments, but after being
arbitrarily allotted in localities covering
their improvements far as possible,
many of them, to the number of probably
1900. have returned to the Office or re-
fused to accept their allotment deeds.
However, such deeds have been recorded
in this Office and title thereby vested In
the allottee as the law provides.
These bands of irreconcilables are
known generally as snakes or might
hawks and while the purposes of the
several bands appear to be identical. they
have factions within themselves or sep
arate organizations which regard each
other with considerable jealousy and al
most open friction"

SHORTNESS OF BREATH.
Some of It's Causes-Treatment by
Systematic Exercise.
From the Youths Companion.

From the Youths Companion.
Respirati ton in health and under nor
NAL conditions of rest or moderate eX
erciSe is an unconscious act, almost as
much SO as digestion or the beating of
the heart. but it is very easily dis
turbed. even in health. and in certain
diseases it's disturbance is often one of
the most distressing symptoms. The
short breath following violent exertion.
such running or hill climbing, is ia
miliar to every one. 1t is due to the
Increased call for Oxygenation of the
blood and the temporary inability of
the heart to pump the blood in SUI
ficient volume through the lungs.
When shortness of breath is brought
about by moderate exercise or mental
excitement it is due to some abnormal
condition, such as anaemia, obesity, q
weak heart or indigestion. This tend
ency is relieved by attention to the weak
point, whatever it may be, and a judi
cious system of EXERCISES sort of
modified training.
Permanent shortness of breath. or
dyspnoea. as it is technically called, is
a more serious affair and is usually due
to some actual disease. What the dis
ease is of which this dyspnoea is a
symptom can often be discovered only
by careful and thorough medical eS-
1t is often called asthma and treated
at home by inhaling the fumes of burn

ordinary remedies; but asthma is a dis

the intervals of which the breathing is
generally easy and quiet. Permanent
dyspnoea Is another matter and is 81
indication of something wrong. 1t may
be due to great variety of causes.
only a few of which can be mentioned
here.
Anemia, or poverty of blood may
give rise to permanent dyspnOea, as
we'll as to shortness Of breath on exer
ton. The symptom is q regular accom-
paniment of diminished lung capacity,
either through consolidation of more
or less of the lung tissue in tuberculo-
sis or pneumonia. or through compress
sion of the lungs by an accumulation
of fluid or air in the chest
Anything that interferes with the free
action Of the heart, such as weakness
of the cardiac muscle or disease of the
valves of the heart, pressure by fatty
deposits. an enlarged liver or gas in the
stomach. will produce shortness OF
breath.
Short breath in children is commonly
the result of obstruction in the air
passages, caused by enlarged tonslls,
the presence of glandular tissue in the
pharynx, called adenoids, or swollen
condition of the mucous membrane in
the larynX.
Persistent shortness of breath is a
symptom that should not be neglected.
