We were rather surprised to find the
editors of the Statesman quoting Dry
den. Such erudition was unlocked
for. We soon discovered, however, the
source of their knowledge. Under the
word Drawn ;" in Webster's Diction-
AIRY, TO which, by the way, the editors
elsewhere referred, and to which they
evidently, in their furry, fastened to
discover the meaning of the word, the
quotation is given as an example Of
its use. Let us have a few more die
tionary quotations, please, ye classic
scholars

A PATHETIC POSSIBILITY.
Startling Story of the Wreck in Which
Margaret Fuller Was Lost.

New York, May 31.-The name of Mar
garet Fuller-Ossoli is still name to
conjure with among the library people
of the older generation in New York.
She is supposed to have found her tomb
in the ocean, but there is some reason
to believe that her diShOnOred remains
rest in the old Potter's Field of New
York Thereby hangs a curious tale.
/ met Il weather-beaten old boatman
at Fire Island last summer who captains
fishing craft with consummate skill,
and there is a sharp Jingle of Attic salt
in his stories and "reminiscences. Among
other things he told me he was on
the beach that June night in 1850 when
q disastrous storm wrecked the bark
Elizabeth, which was bringing home
from Italy Margaret Fuller, beloved
and admired on two continents, her
husband and child. The ship foundered
off Fire Island beach in plain sight Of
land, and only a few of the crew sue
ceeded in passing the breakers. Some
bodies, not many, were washed ashore
a few days afterward.
Among these was Il Woman's corpse,
hideously disfigured, wave-beaten, fish
eaten, grisly horror to the eye. But it
had two very curiously shaped teeth
stopped with gold in a peculiar fashion,
which were known to have character
lied Margaret Fuller. And besides she
had been the only woman Oh the bark.
When her friends came down to look,
as soon as the report of bodies washed
ashore reached New York, and they
saw the awful thing vomited UP from
the jaws of the ocean, they recOiled
shuddering, and utterly refused to admit
that it could be Margaret Fuller No!
their Margaret was softly Graded some
where in the cool green sea depths,
and they could only think of her in the
words of Ariers song:--
"Of her bones are coral made.
Those are pearls that were her eyes,
Nothing Of her but doth suffer sea
change
Into something rich and strange"
SO, dishonored and rejected of all,
the Sea-battered remains of what had
probably been Margaret Fuller We're
sent to New York and buried in Potters
Field among paupers, tramps and out
casts.

A MILWAUKEE MILTTIANIAN IN
AN UGLY MESS.

Milwaukee, June miss Vesta
Simpson, aged Is, has sued A. E. Ran
som, captain of Co. II, fourth regiment.
W. n. G., for $1,000 damages. The
complaint shows that the case posse >
ses some sensational features.
Ransom is a book-keeper at 414
Broadway and he lives at 5S4 Conway
street. He is well known in Bay View
and his work in organizing Co. H, led
the members to unanimously select
him as captain. The girl who is the
plaintiff in the suit was employed a
few months ago as a servant in Ran
SONS house.
The first part of the complaint in the
case states that the complainant is 10
years old and that David Simpson
had been appointed her guardian al
Item The complaint alleges that
while the plaintiff was employed in
the house Of the defendant the latter
came into her room on the night of
March %, 1893. She was in bed and
the allegation is made that the defend
ant pulled off the bed coverings, seized
her by her lower limbs and otherwise
created her rudely.
AS q further and separate cause OF
action the plaintiff alleges that about 4
o'clock on the morning of May %, 1898,
while the plaintiff was still in bed as
aforesaid, the defendant again entered
her apartment, rudely endeavored to
pull off the bed covering and violently
seized her nv tho arm
The complaint states, in conclusion,
that the plaintiff was greatly Frightened
and was made very sick for some days
thereafter and that she suffered great
pain and mental anguish, shame and
insult. BY reason of this the plaintiff
alleges that she suffered damages i'll
the sum of $1,000 and demands judg-
ment for the sum and the costs of the
action, which has been begun in the
Superior court.
1t is understood that Capt. Ransom
denies the charges in toto. He is a
graduate of the Wisconsin university
and has always borne a good name.
It is said that he intends to leave the
city in a short time.
