New York.-Most persons will be
surprised to learn that France is re.
garded as land of troglodytes. But
they are not barbarians or savages.
On the contrary, most of them are in
dustrious and thrifty folk who have
utilized most intelligently the special
conditions which enable them to pro.
vide comfortable homes for their fam
lilies at a minimum cost.
Cave jewellers form an important
proportion of the population in some
districts of the center of France. This
type of habitation is found hewn out
of the chalk on the French coast Of
the British channel and also in other
districts of northern France. But
these cave dwellings are not to be
compared in numbers with those in
central France, and especially in the
middle basin of the Loire, where the
groups of troglodytes are most Dense

little bear has grown considerably
since its arrival at the Lem farm in
this place. He has grown attached
to Mr.. Lem, who is kind to his me-
nagerie, which consists of bears, deer
elk and smaller animals.
Recently Mr.. Lem started for q
committee meeting in Buffalo. The

obliged to wait on a siding. Mr.. Lein
boarded the car and while it was wait
ing for another car to pass there was
commotion on the vehicle. Mr.. Lein
sat IN front and was reading the paper.

N REGARD to MI. Hubbard.

In Regard to Mr.. Hubbard.

Of alleged opposition to Hon. W. P.

ton 10 organize the other counties Of
the district, move upon Wheeling in
force, and with or without the consent

nomination OF Mr.. Hubbard.
The Intelligencer reiotces greatly at
this evidence Of Marion county loyalty
to the distinguished First district con.
gresham, who is one Of Ohio county's
favorite sons. 1t also begs to assure
the West virginian and any others
either in Marion, Harrison or any
other county in the district, that there
is no opposition in Ohio county to
the denomination of Mr.. Hubbard.
Ohio county has number Of wor
thy citizens, any one Of whom might
make a good candidate for congress
but it is not true that there is any
any act Of omission Or commission
In fact the sentiment in Ohio county
is very general that he is not only
making a splendid congressman, but
that he has Just begun a long career
Of activity and usefulness which 4
would be criminal folly to attempt to
cut short. The 1ntelllgencer begs

that represent the best We have, and
are capable of defending and expound
