REVEILLE IS
FORGING AHEAD
PROPERTIES in THIS DISTRICT
ARE SHOWING GREAT
VALUES.

About seventy miles due east from
Tonopah lies the little camp of Re
r veille-a camp which bids fair tt
demand considerable attention dur.
ing the coming summer months
While this camp is not entirely a new
one it is only during the past few
months that the eye of the investor
has been turned in that direction in
any large degree. But, as has been
the case in so many other portions of
the State, the properties were so rich
in pay ore that they could not fail to
attract the man who was seeking an
investment where the returns would
be far and beyond any which he
could obtain by investing in any
other line of business. And so Revel-
lie is taking her place in the front
ranks of the mining camps of the
State.
The Schwab interests are represen-
ted there, a fact which in itself is
a guarantee of the stability of the
properties. They recently purchased
a large property from H. Reischke, a
pioneer of the section, and are con
Quoting it under the name Of the
Southwestern Nevada Mining Com.
pany.
And other capitalists have their
eye on the district. 1t is stated that
during the coming summer a railroad
will be constructed from this city out
onto the desert a hundred miles OF
more, and this railroad will touch the
mineral zone in which is situated the
camp of Reveille. The Tonopah Min
ing Company and the Schwab inter-
ests are the financial hackers of the
new enterprise.
Mr.. H.. Reischke, who is known as
the father of the camp, having pass
ed the last fourteen years of his life
there, is in the city at the present
time, and is very enthusiastic over
his town. He declares that the com
ing of spring will see a large influx
OF prospectors to the vicinity and
lroDhesies a most prosperous season.
The camp at the present times is
the habitation of about $50 people.
Most of these are employed in the
properties which are being worked.
The Southwestern Nevada Mining
Company employs ~thirty-five miners,
and are doing extensive Improvement
work. They have just shipped in a
hoist for a three-compartment shaft
and are also doing much tunnel
work.
Mr.. Reischke has just completed
l50 feet of tunnel work on the Fish
erman mine, and the directors will
start active development work at
once. The Bromide Hill Mining
Company is also preparing for an ac-
tive campaign. George Bartlett, the
prominent Tonopah attorney, is the
president of this company. The
Highland Boy Mining Company re-
Gently shipped a carload of ore of a
most excellent quality. The desti-
MES of this company are under the
guidance of Henry Anderson, the
sheepmaE, of Reno.
There are fifteen mineral-bearing /
propositions being worked in the
camp at the present time. One of the
advantages which Reveille has over
many Nevada camps is the fact that |
there is plenty of timber and water /
available for all purposes. The ore
the locality is a silver proposition. |
averaging sixty to seventy per cent
cad and sixty ounces of silver to the

'any is another property that bears
he earmarks of being ~gilt-edge. The
'ompany was Incorporated about four
ago and has four full claims.
i~ncorporators are all we'll known
mining and business men of Tono-
AN, men who have lent not only
heir time, but have invested their

Reyeille-Tonopah a great pro-
ucer. The board of directors will in
few days place $4,000 of the
