Cincinnati talked of drafting Bill earlier In

A Boy. Power over Animals.

1t is curious thing, the power which some
human beings have over animals. There Is in
Lowell a boy, differing in no respect from
his companions, who has the power in a
marked degree Every stray dog cat in the
neighborhood knows him and loves to be in
his company. A vicious horse, which the
stablemen can with difficulty handle, will
stand like lamb while he harnesses and I'M
harnesses him. The doves fly around him.
and in the woods the wild birds apparently
regard him as friend and ally, says the

beer Tiotous outbreak among the stu
dents of Grove City college, one of the

nine. Last Saturday the latter club
was defeated here. The students were
wild with delight and decided to cele-
brate the victory. Armed with tin
horns, they marched through the town
and aroused the residents.
Finally they attacked the armory Of
the militia, chopping down the doors
with axes and raiding the ammunition
cases. Two thousand blank cartridges.
about 500 pounds of powder and all the
rifles In the place were distributed
among them.
Then. firing the guns as they went,
they marched through the streets. A
number of them were seriously burned
with powder. Constable Leech swore
IN five citizens as deputies to dlsperse
the riotous students.
The students assembled at the college
campus and repulsed the police, beating
them over the head. The constable
rallied his men and repeatedly attacked
the students, but was each time driven
back. 1t was suggested that the local
militia be called out, but cooler counsel
prevailed.
The students held their position until
daylight, when they went TO their
rooms. President Keller called the fac
ulty together early yesterday. When IT
was known that many of the rioters
had been expelled. the greatest indig-
nation prevailed among the students
Another outbreak Is feared.

Washington, May 12.-The state de-
partment is in receipt Of a report from
Consul General Lee, dated the latter
part of April, in which he deals with
the general situation in Cuba and pre-
sents all the facts at his command with
out making any recommendations as
to the policy to be pursued by this gov
ernment In this report General Lee
states that the insurgents are not de-
creasing in numbers, but that, accord
ing to the most trustworthy informa-
ton at hand and to all appearances,
there are more Of them now than when
he went to the island.
He explains the apparent want of or
ganization by the statement that 1t is
against the Cuban policy to conduct the
war after the accepted modern ideas on
this point.
The Cubans believe they can be most
effective by pursuing their present
method. General Lee also dwells upon
the condition of affairs in the island.
