FUNDS FOR THE PANAMA CANAL
WORK.

Tho official statement from Panama
that the work of construction is out
stripping the supply OF funds for pay
ment Is most interesting We are
Informed that II would ho possible TO
spend this year SS.0O0,000 more than
more accurately 1t would be possible
to do this year sS,0000O0 worth OF
work more than there has been
money provided to pay for Tho com
mission is therefore confronted with
the alternative OF delaying operations
and doing much less than could he
done, or Of going ahead with the work
beyond appropriations and trusting
TO Congress to provide for the de-
ficiency In It's accounts.
There Is a most formidable obstacle
to the latter course. The law OK
plicitly forbids. under penalty, any Of
flcer to exceed In his expenditures.
the amount OF his appropriations
Moreover, II requires an appropriation
which, like that OF canal work, IL to
be expended throughout the year. to
be divided into u portions. aud for
bids the spending in any month OF
more than tho share apportioncd
excepting any remainder
which may have been left over from
n preceding month. But 1t Is possible
In some cases TO mako exceptions
to this latter provision. The law pro.
vldes that In an emergency the head
of department may authorize re-
distribution of the appropriation. so
that monthly portions may be used
before their time, or which transac-
ton he must make to tile House of
Representatives satisfactory state
ment and explanation. 1t would ap-
pear to be possible. then, for the Sec
rotary of War. regarding the present
Skate of affairs as an emergency,
formally to authorize the spending
of the years appropriation more rap
idly than at the rate of one-twclfth
n month. In that case. of couse. 1t
would all be exhausted before the end
of tile fiscal year, Juno 30 next ana
the Secretary would have to depend
upon Congresses making a deficiency
appropriation before that time on re-
ceiving his statement concerning the
redistribution.
When a great work Is proceeding
more rapidly than it was expected tc
do there should certainly be no ground
for complaint. The plain duty of the
situation Is to keep 1t going at full
speed There is no economy in delay;
on the contrary there will be economy
in expedition. and in getting returns
from tie vast Investment at the earl
lest possible date. Seeing that The
nation has ample funds for the pur

The Measure of LIGHT.

In order TO understand the measure
ment of light as TO quantity it is nee
essary to study the measurement of il
Elimination. Taking the candle as the
standard light source and considering
the horizontal rays only, the intensity
of the illumination which it can pro-
duce will depend upon the distance of
the surface from the flame At one
foot distance a surface in vertical po-
sition-that is. perpendicular TO the
rays-will have a certain brilliancy or
intensity. At two feet distance the
surface will have, according to the
law of inverse squares, one-quarter the
intensity, at three feet one-ninth of
the intensity. and so on. To obtain
unit of intensity, therefore. it is neces-
sary to use unit of distance in con-
nection with the standard light source.
When the English system of measure
ment is used one foot is taken for the
unit distance-that is. the illumination
produced on surface one foot from
the candle is taken as the unit and is
called foot candle An illumina
ton or two foot candles is then the
illumination produced upon a surface
by two candles st a distance OF one
foot--Engineer.
