-Death of an Ex-Confederate.
Cincinnati Enauire.- .', .
;Mr.lThos. Cockings,of Lincoln coun
ty, W. Va., who died last week, was
a man of- more than usual history.
Born in Staffordshire, England,; be
entored the British army in time to
do good service, and won his spurs in
the Crimean , war. At the ' breaking
out Of the late civil war, he was sta
tioned at the Island of Jamaica, West
Indies. Shortly, after the firing on
Fort Sumter, Gen. G. P T, Beaure
gard, then in command at Charles'
ton, S, 0., whQ had met him pwh
ously, tendered him an office in the
Confederate .;. service.' .Resigning ' his
commission uuier her Majesty, he ar
rived in Charleston on the blockader
Fox. Beauregard, - knowing his abil
ity andknowledge of military discips
line, assigned' him at once to ; the
charge of the large body of untrained
muitia tnen gatnerin ac james iiss
land S. C. , where , he soon ; brought
order out of choas. He served with
great gallantry in the Army of North
era. Virginia, under Lee, until the
close at Appomattox. Appreciating
the great value of. the mineral re
sources Of West Virginia he purchas
ed large tracts of land there, where
he lived until his deathr a great en
thusiast as to the future prospects, of
his adopted State. . He was buried

The Little Indians Visit the Pres
' r . ident.
Washington, Jan. 24. Captain R.
H. Pratt and . his party . of Indian
boys and girls from . the Carlisle
School called upon the President to
day and were given a .cordial recep
tion. They -were also received by
Miss Cleveland in one of the While
House parlors. ' They also called
upon Adjutant General , Drum and
visited the Interior Department and
other points of interest. ' The young
Indians tooK evervtnma: in witn eas
ger eyes , and 'displayed remarkable
interest in wuau iuey saw. - u me
afternoon they were taken to the
Capitol and with wondering eyes be
held the many objects of interest
pointed out to them. For .a while
they occupied seats in one- of the
House galleries and witnessed the
crowded galleries and, exciting pro
ceedin3 on the floor. The House,
which at the time was in a perfect
uDroar. must have seemed like a
howling v mob to them, and their
amazement was fully, expressed in
their countenances. -
Obstacle
1iou.
Fhllade'phla Times.
In addition to the inability to en
force prohibitory laws m larjre towns
and , cities the " prohibition
States pf the . West are ; running up
against another very serious obstacle
in tne shape of liability to pay dams
ages to the owners of distilleries and
breweries erected prior to the adops
uon oi ine pronicitory amendments.
The prohibitory amendments in-'Iowa
and Kansas , prohibit .the manufac
ture as welt as the sale of spirituous
and malt liquors within the-borders
of the State in question.-' A Kansas
Drewer. w bo had been proceeded
against in a county court for .the vio
lation of this clause prohibiting man
ufacture appealed for the removal of
the case to the United States Court
on the ground that he had a legimate
claim - for damages . . . exceeding
five hundred : . dollars if, the
amendments were enforced against
him. . v - , '
' Judge Brewer in a lengthy opinion
grants the application tor removal
and takes the ground that in the case
of breweries and distilleries erected
prior to the adoption of the prohibi
tory legislation, while the j3tate has
an undoubted right to prohibit both
man uf acture and sale, io is responsi
ble for all damage to property erects
ed rfor distilling or brewing pur
poses. .Breweries, and distilleries
erected . after the; passage of the
amendment do not come- within ? the
scope of this decision, their : owners
erecting them .with, their eyes wide
open to the law and doing so at their
own risK. .
- There is little doubt that 1 the eds
eral courts will take this view of the
matter and the prohibition States be
confronted with the option of allow
ing the old distillers and bre wers' to
continue their business or make good
the loss to property accuring' from
tnH stoppage Jlow much this loss
will foot up the general public has no
means of knowing at" present,, but it
win doubtless, be large enough to cre
ate a good.doai ot squirming amonsr
the taxpayers. -; A decision of this 10
case m the line suggested by Judge
Brewer will be important as. fixing a
precedent which will .apply - to jail
States which may "adopt prohibitory
laws; in the future. . The "prohibition
ists will doubtless console themselves
with the fact that it will cost . less 1 to
pay for the ruined breweries and dis
til eries than it ; will to pay- for the
pauperism and crime : produced" by
drinking.-ivThe - high -license- laws,
would in all " probability effect as
much in the t way. : of prohibition as
the present . laws do, and ? avoid
the respon8ibility.of the State for the
property thus rendered of little or no
value. . ' r r '

'.Cultivation of Eels.
One of the' industries . alone the
Shannon river.'in Ireland, is the cap
ture and cultivation of eels. The
taking of. 40,000 in a single night
sometimes occurred years ago, but
the present product is much1 less.
owing to i the. drainage of the cbuh
try and other, influences. At. Castle
Connell are five immense tanks, in
which the eels are kept alive and al
lowed to grow, the; dead and weak
ones being bipped out 'every morning
by means or large landing nets,;ana
sold cheaply to poor 'people. It 1 is
during this fishing process that1" the
inmates of these, tan lis are seen to
thB best advantage, for every fin and
tail are in motion, swimming upward'
and down ward in one vast . living
mass. , Eels of all ages, sizes and de
grees aire there.: Thousands are there
also in the tank, varying in- weight
from two ounces vto twelve pounds.
These latter are the well " flavored,
juicy fellows that are converted into
the delicious "collared eel" for which
Killaloe is so justly famous. ,""
What Frightened the Wdow. s
Pathfind rsXSuide. , f -
Bill Drawbar is the kindest man
that ever twisted & brake. -He
wouldn't hurt a kitten. Neverthe
less, he scared poor old Mrs. Lonej
the widow, so bad that Bhe had ner
vous hysteria for two weeks,, and
then married -Deacon Fourscore be
cause she was afraid to sleep alone.
You see. Bill was making up second
t3, and just as Mrs. Lone started to
cross the. track at -the upper end of
the yard, Bill yelled to the other
brakemen : "Jump on her,: Ben ! jump
on her as she comes down; cut her
in two, and run her down the siding
behind the elevator : now, then,
catch her 1" And then the poor eld
woman gave , one feeble screech for
mercy and fainted dead away; and
poor Bill can't imagine what V'scart
her."
