LOW CASTE MANGS.
Hindus Not Only Oespise Them, They
Fear and Hate Them.

~ -
Fear and Hate Them.
Bv his fellow Hindu the Mang, one
of the lowest Of all Indian castles, is
not only despised, but even feared and
hated. A writer in the Times Of India
says: ITO be cruel is to be Mang
hearted to fly into a passion may be
expressed in Marathe idiom as having
a NIang within one. When on the oc-
CasiOn Of an eclipse fears are awak-
cncd for the safety of the sun or mOon,
it is the Mang whose help is sought.
He goes among the people claiming
their p~ropitiatory gifts, saying: Give
your gifts that the grasp may be re-
moved. For are not Rahu and Ketu,
the enemies who have laid evil hands
on the heavenly bodies, themselves
Mangs?' Similarly, to their recognized
relation with dark worship and with
subterranean and demOniac influences
is to be traced the making of offerings
to Mang women on Dasera day and
the sinister fact that there are few
great buildings erected in pre-British
days in this part Of India that have
not-whether they be temples or forts
or palaces-Mang victims built into
their foundations.
"The peculiar place that these popu-
lar superstitions have given to the
Mang community is seen especially in
the ceremonies that are sometimes per
formed for the removal of disease.
Frequently when some one has fallen
i'll a JOSH is consulted and explains
the illness as due to the influence of
some evil spirit. The one effective pre-
SCriptiOn in such a case is to call a
Mang and give him a dinner. This is
not by any means an act of friendli-
ness toward a despised community, but
has as its object apparently the pro-
pitiGtiOn of the demoniac power and
the removal Of the source Of the dis
ease from the sick man to It's proper
habitation.
with this end in view practices of
sympathetic magic. which can be par
allelPd in the folk lore of many peo-
pies. are employed. Portions Of the
finger nails or. it may be, fragments of
hair Of the invalid are secretly mixed
with the food to be given to the Mang,
and before the sugar water of which
he is to partake is given to him the
sick man must see his face in it. In
this way thezevil is supposed to be
passed back to where it properly be-
longs and the disease removed.
