TALES THAT TIE TALLAPOOsA's OFFICERS
TELL OF MRS. SECRETARY CHANDLER.
Boston special to the New York Sun
says: Some tightly-bottled wrath which
the officers Of the Tallapoosa have for
some weeks left hidden is beginning TO
lnd an occasional vent, and some very
funny stories are breaking out about the
incidents Of the great free excursion. The
naval officers OF the country attached to
this noble craft have had new duties as
signed them which, il longer required,
will doubtless lead TO the tender OF num-
Der OF designations.
Considerable curiosity was expressed to-
day at the assiduous and submissive atten-
ton paid TO the wants OF Mrs. Chandler,
the wife OF the Secretary, by the iull-uni-
formed officer accompanying her at the ex-
libition. Some one, who asked another OF
the Tallapoosa's crew what il meant, re-
ceived in reply an cXpletive expressive OF
the most supreme disgust, and the infor-
nation that this service was required OF
some officer whenever the " mistress OF the
navy" went ashore. - Why" exclaimed
one OF the nations naval defenders, when
assured that he might speak incog., " one
OF us venturcd to go ashore with her one
day when so assigned in undress uniform
and she sent him back ins.anter 10 put on

her OF from shore in quite a gale, and to
prevent getting wet we conducted her

made very emphatic objection 10 going

Why, we hardly dare to stir when her lady,

No work is allowed to be done on board
before Q a. NJ, that the morning maps OF
the ladies may not be disturbed. even the
shoveling Of coal being as far as possible
restricted.
The men assigned TO lackey service
sometimes get into serious trouble. Mrs.
Chandler visited one Of the "French sar-
dine factories on the Maine coast .and
picked up one OF the copper labels stamped
with French inscription, which she
handed to her uniformed escort. On the
way back TO The ship she asked for II, and
the astoni.hed officer exclaimed, "Why.
madam, didn't suppose you wanted to
keep it. threw il away
The lady was quite indignant. Inc
officer, however, has not yet been cash
tered.
The fact is that the present iunketing OF
Secretary Chandler and party has come to
an abrupt termination. The Tallapoosa
ran aground near Nahant yesterday. and
stove a hole IN her bottom. She was soon
got of, but she leaks badly, and will at
once be taken to Portsmouth for repairs.

Especial telegram 10 the Dlspatch.I
NORFOLK, VA, September 7.-Our COM
munity was greatly shocked to-day by the
suicide OF one of It's most popular citizens
and businessmen, Robert A. Forbes, who
blew out his brains at his ofice-door, on
Water street, with pistol just purchased
for the purpose. He was about his bust
ness as usual, weighing cotton, and the
cause that led to the tragedy cannot posi-
bly, be conjectured. The deceased was n
native Of WestmoreIard county, and came
here as volunteer during the yelow-iever
scourge. He was a gallant soldier in the
southern army during the late war. lie
leaves family.
Captain J. j. Young, an old and prom-
nent citizen, died to-day. He was in the
United States and Confederate wars, and
was at Chaflin's Bluff when the war closed.
