COAST AND egoDErlc SURVEY.
Professor Davidson's Party-Longest Base
Line In the World.

camp of Professor Davidson's United
States Coast and Geodetic Surveying party
has been located near Plainfeld. in Yolo
county, about eight miles northwest of Davis
vile, for the purpose of measuring base
line to be used in connection with the main
triangulation across the continent. The
south end of the line is located on the banks
of Putah creek, four miles east of Davisyille,
and the north end near Cache creek, about
the line is about II miles, and is the longest
base line in the world. Mr.. Colonns, OF the
United States Survey, has been employed
during the past six months in grading and
preparing for this work. The ground along
The line has been plowed. narrowed and
rolled, and the guliies have been bridged.
The base apparatus has been in course of
construction between two and three years,
under supervision of Charles A. Schott of
the Coast Survey office at Washington. 1t
is made of zinc aud steel bars, and so placed,
having in view contraction and expansion,
that the two ends remains at precisely a dis
lance of five meters apart, or having an I'M
varying length of about 16l feet. Three of
these bars have been made and will be used.
To protect them, during measurements, from
the extreme heat Of the sun, q mammoth
portable screen has just been constructed by
Harry Bernard. of this city, in accordance
with drawings and plans made by j. j. Gill
bert, of the survey. 1t is arranged to be
drawn upon four wheels, which run upon
steel spinoles attached to the sides of the
frame. The screen has a rectangular base
fifty feet long and eleven feet wide,
with a light bent framework nine feet in
hight, extending ever the area and covered
with canvas 1t required $50 yards Of duck
40 inches wide to form the cover. The screen
is made of this size, so that a measurement of
three lengths of the base bars can be taken
without its being moved along. 1t is light
for SO large q concern, and will be drawn dur
ing measurements by the men connected with
the survey party. 1t is probably the largest
vehicle ever placed upon wheels 1t was
completed yesterday and accepted by the Off
GERS as a perfect piece of work in every re-
spect and highly satisfactory. Last night it
was taken into parts for shipment, and will
be sent to Davisville by railroad this morn
ing, as it is all put together with bolts, so
that it can be taken down and conveyed in
small compass.
Professor Davidson viii reach camp during
the present week, coming from San Francis
CO, and the work of measurement will be COM
rnenced as soon az the necessary preparations
are completed. 1t is expected that the work
in hand will occupy from two to three
months.
The officers of the party are Professor
George Davidson, chief; G. A. Schott, B. A.
Colouna, L. +. Dickius, j. III. Pratt, II. w.
Blair, Werner Sues and J. j. Gilbert, assist

CAMP Brown via Grass Valley. August
2i.-In Camp Brown to-day the weather was
very warm. The battalion Grill from $3.50
| 70 10 a NJ was great improvement over that
OF Yesterday. The movements were executed
more promptly and the formations were quit
well preserved. It is evident that there is
| still room for Improvement, and the compa-
MES all have much to learn in the school for
| the battalion. The skirmish that followed
the drill was quite lively in its exercises.
| The brigade staff arrived this evening, and
| has quarters to the rear of the headquarters.
| Commander-in.C Chief Governor Perkins and
\ members of his staff are expected tonight at
Grass Valley, and will be received in camp
in the morning. He will be a. the brigade
headquarters during the day, but will prob.
ably pass the nights at. Grass Valley OF
Nevada City. The supply of water for the
camp has proved inadequate, and there i:
| considerable grumbling about it.
| The troops report no special improvement
as yet in the food furnished them by the con.
tractors. Outside restaurants are doing q
| lively business. because OF the desire Of the
men for something better and more varied.
| This afternoon the Governors Guard gave
an exhibition drill on the parade ground
witnessed by a large concourse of people
Tonight the usual concert will take place on
the parade ground.
| Company 6 shot at target to-day for the
Peterson gold medal, 200 yards, five shots pei
man. Sergeant Flaherty won by % out of s
possible %. Three other trials are to be
made TO determine the final ownership.
