Ex-Gov. sPRAGUE's BRIDE.
Some "reminiscences Of His First lar-
ri0ge.


ri0Ge.
New York Letter.
The marriage of ex-Gov. VIM. Sprague
was surprise to his friends. It has been
mentioned recently that this tempest
tossed gentleman had undergone thor
ough change in his habits and appearance,
which was astonishing in view of the bur-
den of difficulties that he had to bear, and
1t was attributed to sudden turning over
of new leaf. Now it crops out that
1t was all due to a woman. There is an
atmosphere of mystery about the new
marriage. 1t was a surprise to his imme-
date family. The romance of the court
ship is still unknown. He has secured a
very pretty young woman for wife. The
marriage occurred in Staunton, Va. The
bride. Mrs. Dora Inez Calvert, a tall bru-
nette,ha lived for sometime in Greenbrier
county, West Virginia. She was divorced
but short time ago from her husband,
who is a Cincinnati drummer.
There are few who do not wish the ex-
governor a happy life in his domestic
circle, which has been SO afflicted. The
pathos with which he described his expert
ences to me one sunny summer morning,
in sumptuous library in his famous villa
by the sea, can never be forgotten. Be-
tween the lines of his story there appeared
the eager, heated face of ambition that
sacrificed and blighted life. He was
young senator, worth a million, and
there was in Washington presidential
aspirant with daughter whose fine figure,
flashing black eyes, and golden tresses,
had bewitched men by the score, since at
the age of sixteen she was called upon to
play woman's part in doing the honors
of the household for her father, then the
mold the two lives. She was fit to be the
wife of a grandee, and the Rhode Island
senator was the only conspicuous man,
who, in a day when millionaires were not
so thick as now, had the means to give her
the vantage ground upon which to operate
for the attainments of the ambition of
her life-viz: The election Of her father to
the chief magistracy of the United States.
It was made match, Kate Chase had
her air-castles. She got her castle by
the sea. Her fathers disappoint-
ment crushed both. When he died Conk-
ling was her ideal for the presidency. She
should have lived in the days of Louis XIV.
Hes pattern of woman's influence politically
was taken from that day-a splendid salon
where she could be queen of circle of in
fuential men charmed by the glitter of
her wealth and the dazzle of her beauty.
She chose wisely from her point of calcula-
tion when She placed her villa across the
water in sight of Newport, the Mecca of
tristocracy and influence. Her plans we've

Washington Dispatch to Cincinnati Enquirer.
A local gossiper gives the following of
interest touching the estate OF Matt Car
penter:
"Matt Carpenters estate, when all set
tied, has left Mrs. Carpenter and family
$150,000 in money. His life insurance
amounted to $4,000. Congress gave Mrs.
Carpenter one year of the SENATOR salary,
$4,000. MIR. Carpenter owned for num-
Der of years stock in the Milwaukee Serti-
mel. This he had vainly sought to sell, or
almost give away. When the morning
papers in Milwaukee were consolidated
this stock went up 50 the estate re-
allied $4,000 from the sale of this
interest. In the sale of por-
ton of the law library of the late senator
$1,000 was realized. Congress will prob
ably purchase the records and briefs of the
library. These are valued at $4,000. Five
hundred volumes Of the library were kept
out and retained for the use OF PaQl Car
penter, the only son of the great lawyer.
Property in and about Milwaukee was sold
so as to realize nearly $4,000. Mr. Car
penter never tried TO save any money. So
long as rs had his health he could always
earn a very large income. He said there
was no use trying to save up large for
tune for his family. He made up for this
by the amount OF life insurance he carried.
This called for about $4,000 year in pre-
miums. The result, however, is hat the
family is left in independent comfort at
last
