erinE plates Of the anchor bits on the

OLD WARsHIP TO BE REFITTED
Constellation to Appear as She Did
100 Years Ago,

The United States frigate Constella-
ton is being refltted at the Norfolk navy
yard to appear as she did when first
built at Baltimore more than 100 years
ago. AL Of her guns are being removed,
her cabin is being torn away and her
rigging will be changed to represent the
sQuare-riggers of a century ago. These
preparations have been undertaken SO
that this vessel may take part in the
centennial celebration Of the American
flag at Baltimore in September.
The Constellation fought in the naval
war with France in 1893. and in 1902 did
blockade duty in the Barbary states
During the war of 1s12-14 she was en-
gagged In blockade duty in Chesapeake
bay. 1t Is probable the historic old war;
ship will make visit to this city before
returning to her regular station at New
port, r. l.

GATUN WATER SUPPLY
SUFFICIENT FOR CANAL
Resources of Artificial Reservoir
Withstand Dry Season at
Panama.

Resources of Gatun lake, the wonder
full artificial reservoir which is the
main dependence of the Panama canal
for its water supply. have proved am
pie to meet all possible demands, after
the most severe practical test. Al
though the amount of water which ran
into the lake during the last dry sea
son-January to April. inclusive-was
less than in any similar period for the
past twenty-five years. being only 81
per cent of the normal collection, the
lake was maintained at its proper ele-
walton throughout that period.
The dry season afforded the first op-
portunity engineers have had to de-
termine the amount of evaporation
from the surface of the lake at its full
depth. The figures showed that there
was still sufficient water at the end of
the dry season to have kept the lake
level at seventy-nine feet above sea
level, which would have given thirty
nine feet of water in Culebra cut. or
the biggest battleship
Ample Water Supply Assured.
At the end of the present Tainy season
Gatun lake will be eighty y-seven feet
known evaporation, leakage and seepage.
this would be ample for forty-one pas
sages daily through the locks. using
them at full length, or about fifty-eight
passages a day when partial length is
used. as would generally be the case
This is a larger number of lockages
than would be possible in a single day.
Even in the great Sault Ste Marie canal
| the lockages last year averaged alt.
| while the Suez canal reported only
twelve per day.
This assurance of an ample water
supply to meet all possible con-
tingencies. including the heavy drafts

| pecially in view of doubts expressed in

operation of the canal in the dry season.
