Dublin presents an amazing picture. While the rebel armed men patrol the etreete and guard the most prominent : public buildings and railway stations, the amenities of social life proceed gaily undisturbed, particularly dancing, sport, theatres, and cinemas. Nevertheless everybody realises the volcanic character of the situation, which may momenJ tarily develop on the most sinister lines. I Mystery envelops Sligo, which hae been in rebel 'hands since Saturday. They ! cut the wires, commandeered telephones, ' and trenched and barricaded the streets. No one was allowed to enter or leave the ' town. Mr. Arthur Griffith left Dublin on 1 Saturday to keep an appointment to • epeak in Sligo, defying the rebel prohibition. He was traced to Carrickshannon, *nd has not been heard of since.—(A. ' and N.Z. Cable.)
