[Athletic vs. Thespian 10/19/1866] Dan. Kleinfelder has the thanks of newspaper men for insisting that the reporter’s stand should be kept clear from intruders. The sublimest piece of impudence was have seen attempted in a long time, was that of the well known fraud attempting to pass himself off as a reporter for the New York Herald. The point of the joke is, that the Herald had a correspondent upon the platform as a looker one, and who, if the occasion had demanded it, would have made the Herald acquainted with the particulars. This imposter, whose name is Chandler, was inquired for at our office by his wife a few weeks ago, and who is extremely anxious to lay hands on him, that she may make him provide for her support.
