BETTER THAN JINRIChSHAS.

The intelligence is conveyed from Chicago that
a man named Woolf, described as West Side

jinrickshas, with men TO propel them. Mr.. WOolf
il is said has begun to operate the vehicles about
the city, and in the parks, not so much for profit
as to "enlarge ChcagOs cosmopolitan character"
and to increase the glory of the town. The
fare is cents, and they now trottng up and

outside of Japan.
We admit freely that New-YorlI has no jinrck-
shas But, in the matter Of transportation, is it
possible that Chicago never heard of our gondolas
or our Broadway elephant line which carries
passengers in howdahs? Apparently not Still,
we do not deny that jinriclishas are a greater
novelty than either gOndolas or elephants. But

The escape Of the Lick Observatory from the
consequences of forest fire is cause for general
rejoicing. The peril was great, the flames having
been diverted only when they had come almost
within scorching distance. The top of the noun
tain is bare, and the buildings could not have
been consumed except by peculiar l-luck but great
anxiety was felt for the costly and delicate instru
ments which the heat of confagration close at
hand would have certainly injured or destroyed
