WILEY NOTES.
Wiley Journal.

The Denver horse buyers who
advertised to be in Wiley last
Tuesday were here and a number
of horses were brought to town
by farmers who wished to sell.
AS far as learned not a horse was
sold to these parties. Farmers
may be little high in pricing
their horses, but these fellows
were certainly looking for snap
Judging from the prices they Of
fered.
Beets in this locality do not
look very promising as a rule al
though there are several good
fields. Many fields are afflicted
with Curly top" which has
stopped their growth. This seems
to be true especially with early
planted beets.
The first cantaloupes were ship
ped from Wiley Tuesday by ex-
press. These first crates were
shipped from L. S. Cox's S acre
patch. The melons in this local
ity are very fine quality.
Whitecraft and Cox are now
making brick at their yard south
east of town. The clay used is
giving good satisfaction as the
brick become very hard when
dried and do not crack in the
least.

Times may be hard for all classes

French Words Used by English.

Few people among those who object
to the English habit of employing
words like naivete or ennui because
they are French are conscious how
many words In the most common Eng.
lish usage have been taken from the
French language. Prof. Lounsbury Of
Yale, In Harper's Magazine, directs at
tention to no less striking examples
than the words chagrin, ridicule,
foible, trait, etc. An additional point
about the word trait. one that will
surprise the American, Is that In Eng
lish It Is pronounced without the final
I, as In French, and is so sanctioned
by the dictionaries. The reader will
be amused to learn In this article how
an eighteenth century critic spoke Of
the French words amateur" and "es.
cort" In English usage as "disgracing
and deforming the language"
