As soon assword was received tina

company. immediate arrangement
were concluded for the financing O
the treasury. for development. TIL
property was purchased by William
Schauss. for William II. Pike an,
other OF Las Vegas. Mr.. Pike an,
associates made visit to the cam,
last Tuesday ard were greatly sur
prised to see any camp, in such
turmoil Of excitement, such as exists
at Silverhorn. They pronounced tn,
new district the livest place in tn,
west Engineers who examined tht
Dale Extension property have re-
ported favorably on development
There has been little work dore up
on the ground. but the favorable To-
cation with such attractive showing
on the surface make this group one
OF the attractive properties in the
camp. Mr.. Schauss who is in charge
has made arrangements for starting
camp, and putting a crew of men
to work. The Dale extension lies
just to the north of the Silver Dale
The survey OF this group has been
practically completed by Harry Pol
lard who iS being kept constantly
busy making surveys upon the var.
ious groups Of claims in the camp.

Property Operating.
The cid and well-knowr Nickel
group Of claims which was former
ly owned by Mr.. John L. Whipple.
who owned the Nevada Silver Horn,
is being whipped into working shape.
Several of the most attractive show
ings are being developed by a small
crew of men. There ia at pre,ent
only one boarding house in the
camp, and this Is so crowded thai
1t Is impossible to put more than a
limited number of men to work.
The restaurant which started only
week ago has been enlarged al
ready. and cannot continue to handle
the large number Of people coming
to camp without further additions.
Plans are being made for extentixe
development Of the Silverhorn Min
ing & Developmert company PROV
erty. Samples taken last week show
ed 28.2 ounces OF silver to the ton
Wednesday samples from the small
prospect shaft showed 41.2 ounces
or silver to the ton. There has been
little development done on this
group, and each day shows improve
ment OF the ore and the possibilities
OF defining large bodies OF ore. The
character of the ore outcrop. and
the ore exposed In the workings is
Identical to that which occurs upon
the Silver Horn and the Silver Dale
properties. The strike and dip Of
the deposit Is the same, and 1t
Is the concensuy OF opinion that the
old Nickel group will be the first
property In the district to disclose
the rext ore body Of great size. The
Nickel Is one Of the properties
which proves that Silverhorn will
not be a one mine camp. That the
naturalization in the camp and dis
trict Is more extensive than had be-
fore been expected Is conceded by
all parties visiting the district. The
Nickel group lies just to the north
of the Nevada Silver Horr property,
and from hampton Hill the Nickel
outcrop appears as the most impor-
tant exposure to the north. Ar
rangements are rapidly being COM
pleted for systematic development
upon the group.
