LONDON, March 28. (By the As
sociated Press.) The borderline of
Ulster is described as "like a battle-
front," by the Evening News Belfast
correspondent, who says rival forces
of the Irish republican army and of
Ulster special constables were ac-
tuallv within rifle range and contin
ually firing- at each other during the
week end.
The combatants were too well con
cealed for serious losses to be in
flicted and the exchange fire was
mainly intended to prevent surprise
attacks.
"The rival armies, continues the
correspondent, "are gradually creep
ing closer and the first collision Is
expected to occur on the frontier near
Caledon. County Tyrone.
"The sound of the blowing up of
bridges on the Ulster border during
the week-end could be heard miles
away," adds the dispatch.
"The northern forces were mainly
responsible, and as the result of their
activities every Important bridge
leading from the Free States has been
demolished, while hundreds' of roads
have been trenched and closed with
trees.
. "The tension is already "beginning
to affect the inhabitants behind the
battle line. The unionists along the
frontier are much perturbed over the
menace of invasion and have asked
that more protection . be afforded
them. Many close to the battle zone.
which is no man's land, have had to
evacuate their homes, which immedi
ately have been occupied by the
fightinsr forces."
The Pall Mall Gazette and Globe
correspondents today telegraphed:
"There are all the elements of
serious outbreak on the Ulster-Free
State border and only a spark is
needed to bring it about. Some shots
already have been fired."
Cl'XMEX ACTIVE IX BELFAST
ARREST OF INDIAN LEADER
FAILS OBJECT SOUGHT.
Government Officials Admit That
Unrest Has Not Abated and
Await Developments.
LONDON. March 20. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) The arrest, trial and
imprisonment of Mohandas K. Gandhi,
the Indian non-co-operationist, are
regarded in official circles as an anti
climax, leaving the government with
out any definite ideas regarding the
turn the Indian situation is likely
to take.
The placing- of Gandhi into safe
keeping resulted in no outbreaks nor
disorders, as might have been ex
pected, because, in the view of Brit
ish officials, the founder of the non-
co-operation movement lost much of
his prestige even among his own fol
lowers as a result of his vacillating
policies during recent months.
The climax in Gandhi's case came
when the government's plans regard-
ng his arrest became widely known
among the Indians. They received
this news quietly, wondering .who
would assume the leadership of his
cause.
Officials freely admit that despite
Gandhi's arrest unrest in India has
not abated. The question receiving
their closest attention is whether
new leader will rise and attempt to
carry on the non-co-operation pro
gramme.
Officials conversant with the In
dian situation are inclined, however,
to believe that any Mohammedan
would encounter insurmountable dif
ficulties in obtaining a following
among the Hindus.

So Naturally. That Nobody
Can Tell.
Hair that loses its color and luster,
or when it fades, turns gray, dull and
lifeless is caused by a lack of Sulphur
in the hair. Our grandmothers made
up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur
to keep her locks dark and beautiful
and thousands of women and men
who value that even color, that beau
tiful dark shade of hair which is so
attractive, use only this old-time
recipe.
Nowadays we get this famous mix
ture, improved by the addition of
other ingredients, by asking at any
drug store for a bottle of "Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound," which
darkens the hair so naturally, so
evenly, that nobody can possibly tell
it has been applied. You just dampen
a sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time. By morn
ing the gray hair disappears; but
what delights the ladies with Wyeth's
Sage and Sulphur Compound is that,
besides beautifully darkening the hair
after a few applications, it also brings
back the gloss and luster and gives it
an appearance, of abundance. Adv. ,
