6. Lessees shall have no claim for compensation or otherwise against the lessor, or any other person or persons or body corporate whomsoever or whatsoever, for any loss which lessees may sustain on account of mining operations carried on below the surface of the demised land or lands adjoining.

7. Each applicant shall state his or her residence, occupation, and condition in life (namely, whether married or single), and will be required to make the prescribed declaration.

10. Improvements and residence on the land comprised in each lease shall be as provided in Part III of the said Act. The provisions of section 186, and all other provisions of the said Act with respect to substantial improvements, shall apply accordingly to lessees under these regulations.

Each section is an allotment. No married woman shall be eligible as a selector if her husband is also a selector, and vice versa; but this provision shall not apply to any married woman who may become a transferee under a will or by virtue of an intestacy.

13. All the provisions of the said Act, so far as applicable, shall extend and apply to the lands affected by these regulations, and to the applications and leases to be made and issued thereunder, and generally to the interests created, and the persons whose rights, liabilities, or interests are thereby affected; and the mention of any particular provision of the said Act shall not be deemed to exclude any other provision of the said Act applicable to the particular case.
