CHESTER.

Lantern, April IL: In response to a
query from an individual in this city
the Curtis Publishing company of Phil
adelphia, has written that they know
nothing whatever about the young man
who was in this city a few weeks ago
soliciting subscriptions for the Satur-
day Evening Post and several other pc
riodicals. The man is without doubt
an impostor, and the Curtis Publishing
company does not hesitate about pro-
claiming him as such. They further
more offer a reward of twenty-five
dollars for his arrest with proof to con-
vict. 1t seems from what THE York
WILLIE ENQUIRER says that this same
young man has visited Yorkville and
defrauded many citizens. He is doubt
less still at work at no great distance,
for this game is q fruitful one, and
some one who reads this notice may
have an opportunity to effect his ar
rest. >. Miss Marie E. Craig, who has
been spending the past eight months
with relatives in York county, return
