WASHINGTON, Dec. 3D.
Congressman Davis of Illinois has in
troduced in the House bill to amend
the mining law, so as to provide that
in any case where, between two locations
on the same lode or vein, and between
location and any natural object which
forms visible or apparent termination of
such vein, there shall be a remanent or
portion of said lode or vein, not exceed
ing 1900 feet in length, not located or
otherwise appropriated for the space of
one year, and the same shall not be open
and visible or readily accessible in any
part thereof, by reason of its being deeply
covered or otherwise inaccessible, it shall
be lawful for the owner or claimant of
either of the adjoining ends of said lode
or vein to make claim to such INDICATED
remenant to locate it as an extension of
the lode held by him and to obtain patent
for it without performing the labor re-
quired in case of discovery and location
of an original claim"
The bill further provides that, in case
application has not been made for patent
on such original claim, the application
for it may include the extension. As be-
fore said, in all such cases, it shall be
sufficient location of such unappropriated
track, that the locator set up notice and
file certificate of location, indicating his
claim to such tract as an extension of the
adjacent lode, provided, however, that
such owner shall apply for patent on such
remnant within two years after such loca-
ton or it shall be held as abandoned and
open for relocation.

New YORK, Dec. 10.
The published statement that Mrs.
Lincoln had lost use of her eyes is untrue.
DR.. Lewis A. Sayre, who has been her
physician ever since her return from Eu-
rope, year ago, told Herald reporter
her eyes had been growing sensibly
weaker for some time past, and that he
had determined to call in as consulting
physicians and occulists, DR.. c. B. Agnew
and Herman Knipp, and that she had
been accustomed to sitting in dark room
for some time and having her letters
written recently by an attendant, has
doubtless led to this statement
DUBLIN, Dec. 49,
The organization against the payment
of rents is becoming still more formidable.
1t is regarded as much of crime to go
into a land court as to pay rent. A list
of persons has been served with notices,
and those suspected of paying rents are
posted at chapels and other places where
they are likely to be seen, and although
the police tear them down, they are soon
posted up again.
1t is stated a prison especially designed
for females is in course of preparation fol
the reception of members of the Ladies
Land League, and that the arrest OF sew
eral prominent members of the Dublin
branch of that organization is expected.
