JOHN WILEY NON.sUITED.
The Attorneys Action Against tho City
to Collect q Fee Fails.

A suit brought by Wiley, Scott 4 Bostwick
against the city to recover 5000 for legal ser
vice was non-suitod yesterday by Judge Osborn
OF the superior court.
The work Tor which the plaintiffs claim to
have earned fee from the city was in a man
darnus proceeding brought by W. T. Chalk
against Harry White, then mayor. There were
a large number OF street grade warrants out
standing The city council passed or finance
TO the effect that persons holding these warrants
could uy presenting them have them cancelled
and have Issued 20 them in place OF those can
celled Others made payable in five years Mayor
White vetoed the ordinance on the ground that
the city had no power 10 contract this indebted
ness without submitting II 20 vote of the
people. The council then passed the ordinance
hv unanimous vote over the mayors veto.
White then refused To sign the new warrants.
". =. Chalk, who held some OF the warrants,
upon Whites refusal TO sign tho ones To be
substituted. brought suit for writ OF Inanda-
mus to compel the mayor 10 sign the new
WARRANTS. The superior court decided the case
in the mayors favor. II was Appealed 10 the
supreme court, which affirmed The decision Of
the lower court, deciding not only that the
mayor was not Obliged 10 sigu the warrants but
had no right 20 doso. The mayor was reprc-
sen,ei in this case by John Whey. OF the firm
OF Wiley Hale & scott. Upon the refusal by
the city 70 nay the fee asked Tor these services,
action was brought 10 collect IL
The c. defended the suit, claiming thar no
LAWYER could hold the city for services unless
by an ordinance authorizing such engagement
and that under no other circumstances could
the corporation counsel secure the assistance OF
anotheg attorney.
1t was shown yesterday on TIE trial of the
case that Orange Jacobs, corporation counsel
hal addressed u letter To the judge OF the super
Tor court stating that no could not conscien-
.iotis.v &C, in the case rs ne had already fur
nished an opinion 10 the effect that the mayor .
stand was incorrect
Mr. Wiley WAS put on the stand to s how the
circumstances un .er which he was engaged.
His testimony on this point was ruled ods by
the court. upon the objection Of the defense

A bride Of last summer, Just back from
Paris, was magnfcenty simple in shot
MORE Of the Ialest green and pink, bro
eaded all over with lines Of fine gold. The
skirt was perfectly plain, with an exquis-
ltely cut eored train. The short sleeves,
tight beneath, stood high and puffy on TOP
OF the shoulder A corselet of rich passe-
menterle covered the low waist from bust
to hip, outlined either side with ieweled

Her ian was OF shaded pink feathers
mounted on green pearl. Pink shoes
wrought with gold and pale green stockings
covered her small feet. the bouquet was
loose bunch Of pale. pink roses set in a
filling OF greenish tule and tied with
shot ribbon matching the germ ground.
Her dearest friend and rival wore n
princess gown, very close and clinging, of
daffodl yellow satin, draped diagonally
from shoulder TO waist both back and front
with wide brocaded sash in Louis XVI
colors upon delicate gray-blue ground.
One end came to the foot in front, the other
fell over the long gored train, each OF

big cabbage bow OF brown satin to match.
The sash ends had fringe of all the bro

yourself In tea. Excessively amiable women
make some pretenSe of drinking nine cups
in as many houses in the course of one
afternoon. There are teas Of all sorts
musical, benevolent, artiStic--semi-politica
even. No celebrity, man or woman, es-
capes; neither do plain, ordinary gentlefolk.
The hostess and her assistants wear tea
gowns or full dress. Here are a few cos
tunes noted within the last week-albeit
the recurrent holidays, with dinners, dances
and so on, have peTceptibly thinned the
crop of teas. Hostess number one-one of

dull blue silk plush, lined throughout
with the softest rich cream surah, the loose
fronts failing over a very graceful folded
vest of light pale-blue China crepe, inside
of which creamy antique lace came high
about the throat. Enormously full jabots
of the same lace came down each front, mar
rowing to a point below the waist and fall
ing in deep cape at the back and over the
shoulders. The pretty girl who poured tea

craVat of jonquil yellow crepe came close
under the young w0man's dimpled chin and
took away all hardness from Ter scheme
of color. Without it the brown tur ana
gray color might have lacked harmony.
Indeed. though it is impossible this
season to have too much fur, you can very
easily make a muss of your garments if you
do not understand the right thing for the

match or harmonic. That is what makes
