The Grave OF Vice President king.

The bodies OF Vice President William
r. King and his brother were both orig
inally buried In the family burying
ground on the plantation owned by his
estate, situated about ten miles south
of Selma. His family erected q very
handsome mausoleum 10 his memory and
the body remained there for many
years until about ten years ago, when
his grandnlece, Miss Nj arguerite King,
had the remains removed, and they
were reinterred In Live Oak Cemetery
in a lot presented by the city of Selma
for that purpose.
Miss King was prompted to remove
the remains because the property had
passed out of the family's possession.
From some cause she could not COM
plete the work and remove the hand
some block of marble, which still ie-
mains at the original grave on the old
plantation. The body of the Vice Pres
ident, with that Of his brother, now lies
buried In Selma in a brick vault, and
the only mark to show the spot is the
brick cover ng with coat of cement
spread over 1t. Truly humble mark.
for one OF Alabama's most distinguished
sons. The State would honor itself
and the memory of her noble son to
erect shaft over his grave or remove
the old mausoleum and rebuild it over
his resting-place.- (Ala.)

The Manufacture Of cripples IL q Common
Practice.

The Manufacture OF cripples IL = Common
The Paris gingerbread fair, as 1t is
called, which Is held every spring In the
Faubourg st. Antoine and the Place de
la Nation. Is notorious for the number
OF natural and artificial phenomena
exhibited there to tho public, says the
London Standard. This year their
number has been greatly increased by
the arrival of about twenty outside
jatte, who are wretchedly lodged In
huts on piece of waste ground in the
Cours de Vincennes. These crlpples,
whose minute. shriveled-up legs. are
curled up on the boards on which they
sit, form a colony, which calls to mind
the Cour des Miracles Of former times.
Every morning they all issue forth,
propelling themselves with their hands,
to take up their places at the fair, there
to await the pence which may be thrown.

Their aspect Is so pitlful that 1t is said
many OF them make real harvest,
which, however, OF course goes to the
.beggar farmer Itappears that twenty
or thirty years ago the culs-de-jat
were almost unknown. in France, and
that these deplorable-looking cripples
are the products Of what may be called
an industry. Almost all these numer-
Gus deformed little creatures come from
Spain, and more especially from Tolosa, .
or the neighborhood situated at about
fifteen miles to the south, OF st. Sebas-
tian. They are, the outcome of the.
abominable practices OF beggar farm
ers, who seek their victims among the
children of the peasants. When there
is a weakly boy In the family, they per-
suade the parents that he can never be
anything but q burden to them unless
they consent to have him transformed
into cul-de- jatte, and promise to pay
them trifie day SO long as the cul-de-
latte is left with them.
The operation to which the unfortu-
nate creature Is subjected Is as effectual
as 1t is simple. The legs of the child
are so tightly compressed that the cir
cuiation OF the blood in them is stopped.
Little by little the legs wlther away,
and the cul-de-iatte is manufactured.
In 1887 M. Waldeck Rousseau, the Min
lister OF the Interior, prohibited the in |
PRODUCTION OF these Spanish culs-de-
jatte into France, but 1t Is estimated re-

A Pretty Custom.

There is certain softness and sweet

very strongly to less demonstrative
Northernere. Perhaps no Southern
custom is prettier than that of having
the children Of a household call friend

uncle or cousin. as the case may be.
Doubtless the custom had its origin In
the numberless genuine relationships
