They Set Up Stones and Used Big Words and Knew What Were Talking About. Mr. Sledge Tatem, topographer on the United States geological survey, from Washington, accompanied by Mr. O. C. Caldwell, ar rived in Union Tuesday night for the purpose of establishing the meridian lino and setting uu the meridian stone at this point. They began their observation of the North star at 8 o'clock and and the work was continued tor an hour, and a point was located in front of and to the loft of the graded school building. This point was marked and they retired until three o'clock Wednesday morning, when they returned to verify the records by further observations. This spot was lo c.attd for the purpose of placing the meridian stone, which arrived on the train from Columbia Wed nesday. It was an unusual and interest ing light to watch them in their work. They watched the North star with as much interest as one would watch his favorite on the track, and indulged in geological, latitudinal, longitudinal and topographical phraseology, to the utter confusion of ye unlightcned Rerihrv Ilnwnpor fliov a? .? ?? ~ - - ^ * VI ^ v??x %T ?I V ?? couple of pleasant gentlemen and are very kind to give any infor niation lequired.
