THE MEET.
A Stormy Interview between Mr.. and
Mrs. Sprague.

New York, Aug. ia special from
N~aragansett Pier says Mr.. and Mrs
Sprague met to-day for the first time
time since the scene of a week ago. A
very stormy interview of an hour follow
ed between them. Sprague began by
demanding the return of the three little
girls.
Ihe ex-governor was laboring under
strong but suppressed excitement dur.
ing the entire interview. He accused
Mrs. Sprague of poisoning the minds
of his children against him and alienat.
ing the affections Of his boy, Willie,
through the influence of the German
tutor, Linck.
Mrs. Sprague in turn accused her
husband of general brutality when I'M
der the influence of liquor, and of cir
culating base and unkind, unfounded
stories against her character. She said
that on IL or more occasions she had
been in peril of her life from him, re-
ferring distinctly to one occasion when
he had pointed a loaded pistol at her,
threatening to Smoother.
Sprague referred to Conkling's init
macy with Mrs. Sprague, and she re-
PEELED any intimation of wrong doing
on her part , with great indignation.
AT last Sprague said: "Do you in
tend to return to C~ononchet?'
81 fear for my life if l do" she re
piled.
81 never harmed any one, and you
are safe" said Sprague.
After the consultation the children
were given to Sprague who drove off
with them.
Mrs. Sprague was greatly agitated
after the departure of her children, and
fin ally decided she would follow them
to C%ononchet. Accordingly after night
fall she was also driven to the splendid
mansion which she had left under such
sad circumstances a week before.
Mrs. Sprague was anxious that her
friend Miss Fosdick should accompany
her but Sprague refused. Miss Fosdick
is an intimate friend of Mrs. sprague
and has often before been a visitor at
Cononchet. There was another stormy
scene in consequence of Sprague's re-
fusal.
There have been many reports of an
intended divorce suit on the part of
Mrs. Sprague, and of a counter suit on
the part of Sprague, Mrs. Sprague nam
ing in her petition frequent alleged
acts of brutality by him, at times i'm
perilling her life as well as referring to
the temporary insanity of her husband
from the effect of continued indulgence
in liquor, Sprague in his petition making
Conkling a correspondent in allegations
of infdelity, but the meeting tonight
may affect an entire change in any such
intentions.

A troop Of ragged Indians that had
come from the mountains at the north
ern border of the comarea. We're stand
ing together in the rear rank, and the
enthusiasm of the poor devils gave me
an idea what the rapture of sgymnastic
competition must have been in a cotir1-
try where every male adult was an ath-
lete, at time when men did, not think
it necessary to despise earthly things for
the love of heaven.
The sages of that time inclined to the
view that this world had been created
for its own sake; nay, that it might
just be possible to enjoy Paradise on
this side of the grave; and our system
of ethics takes alarm at the mere men,
ton of such heresies; butiwe have be-
gun to rediscoyer5 a truth which was
familiar enough to those nature taught
heathens, namely: That the highest
moral and physical well-being can not
be attained separately, but must go
and-in-hand,! like thought and action,
or will and force; and l hope that the
time will come when every school-house
shall have its gymnasium and every vii
lage its arena, for only then can we cell
ebrate our recovery from the Satanic
pest, which has turned our proudest for
ests into deserts and our noblest men
into monks, The ancient Greeks reck-
oned their dates from the institution of
the Olympic festivals, and their re-es-
tablishment would indeed mark a. new
era in the history of a world which has
SO long forgotten that God is the creator
of our bodies as well as our souls. -,,i.,
