Rickshaws and Dandies.

In the mountain districts of India
the principal vehicles of passenger
conveyance are the richshaw and the
dandy, with which Rudyard Kipling
has made US familiar. The rickshaw
is pushed and pulled through the
streets and on the roads leading out
into the country by four coolies, and
the dandy is carried on the shout
ders of four and sometimes six coolies.
Saddle ponies are also used to some ex-
tent, but most of the inhabitants and
quite all visitors use the rickshaw and
dandy. The latter is constructed on
the plan Of sleigh box, but longer. A
pole is attached fore and aft, which is
long enough to give a springy motion
when the coolies are walking and trot-
ting. a crosspiece rests on the shout
ders Of the coolies and is shifted now
and then from one shoulder to the 9TH
er for rest. BY the command of the
ceoly in charge this shift is made 81

Castle Garden was built by the Unit
ed States in 1907 from the plans of
Lieutenant Colonel Jonathan Williams,
G. e, and was called Fort Clinton. In
1892 it was coded to New York city. In
1924 it became a place of amusement
and about 1926 got the name of Castle
Garden. In 1916 there were Ethiopian
MINISTRIES there, in 1S47-49 theatrical
companies played there, and in 1850
Jenny Lind sang there. In 1855 it was
closed as a place of amusement, and
the commissioners Of immigration took
it as an immigrant depot. In 1870 it
suffered from fire, and on July 0, 1876,
it was burned to the ground. 1t was
rebuilt at once. In 1892 the depot was
moved to Ellis island, and Castle Car
den reverted to the city, which in 1896
opened an aquarium there.
