6 IN A JOKE FACTORY. 1 i AN HOUR SPENT WITH MARSHALL P. WILDER. Bow Fun I. Prepared For tho Laughter- Loving Public. A Few of the Noted llumorlat's I.u(est Jokes, The Itepulr Uepartmeiit. Tho public la pretty well acquainted with Marshall P. Wilder as a humorist anil entertainer; hut people who have heard him run wild In an evening of miscellaneous funmnking are hardly prepared to he told that he is one of the most methodical and systematic of mortals. The late William Davldge, the actor, was one of the most systematic men that ever lived. He was constantly keeping books with himself. If he in- Tested live cents in carfare, bought a newspaper, had a shave, shampoo, or haircut, it all went down In his books. When ho died it was disclosed that he had kept an itemised account of every penny earned and expended, and a record of every mile traveled during the twenty-flve years and more that he was on the stage, up to the very dny of his denth on board a railroad train, en route to play in San Fran cisco. By examining this wonderful record one could see exactly wlicro Davidge was on any given day dur ing his long professional career, and how much it cost him. Mr. Wllder's system does not Include the petty outlays of everyday life, but he has a way of systematizing his bus iness that Is hardly less complete than that of Davidge. All the good jokes, stories, and anecdotes, for example, he labels and lays away, as a bugologist would a strange now specimen of beetle or butterfly. It can be said of Wilder that ho can put his hand on any particular joke or story at any hour of the night without striking a match. He has jokes and jokelets. stories and anecdotes, labeled, indexed and cross-Indexed, and can turn in stantly to any given dog or cat story of any stated breed or color. The little joker's business system In cludes an Index of every person of prominence he meets, and turning to his books he can tell at a glance Just how much he Is indebted to any par ticular Individual for contributions to his jund of Jokes. "Harrison—Harrieon—narrlson," re iterated Wilder as he ran his twink ling eyes down the long list of H's; "it seems to me I have heard of that name somewhere. Ah, here It Is. 'Harrison, Benjamin, President of tho United States.' I was almost sure I had heard It somewhere." Mr. Wilder grew reminiscent for a moment. "First time I met Benjamin narrlson was In the White House. I carried a letter from his son. I didn't want an office, had no claim to an office, and of course I wns a little out of my atmos phere. 'How do you do, Mr. Presi dent?' 'How do you do, Mr..Wilder?* That was all. Not a joke or a funny story. Not a word about the weather. Not a word about the crops. I waited long enough for the President to lim ber up; lie didn't limber. I withdrew with great dignity, pausing only long enough In the waltlngroom to request Private Secretary Halford to kick me with groat severity." Wilder had a later meeting with President Harrison, some of the par ticulars of which are best told by an other. It occurred when W. J. Arkell entertained President Harrison at Mt. McGregor. Mr. Wilder was one of the guests. Tho party was on Its way down to the village. "Mr. President," said the little humorist, with mock gravity, "I regret the fact exceedingly, bnt I feel sure there will be a large concourse of people down here to greet me. I understand they have a brass band and I fear they will raise a great hullabaloo. I sincerely trust the eheor hig and noise generally will not dis turb your Excellency." When tho party reached the foot of the mountain there were carriages to receive thorn, and tho inevitable crowd to cheer the President. The band, of course, struck up "Hail to the Chief." By some misunderstanding on the part of the cabby who drove Wilder—or was it by Wllder's own hocus poeus? —the crowd fell apart for him. Hats were swung, handkerchiefs fluttered, and the air was split with cheers. Wllder's quick wit enabled him to seize tho situation by the horns. Hat in hand, he bowed to the right and left, and, as they say on the stage, "took the whole scene." The ovation was all his own. Wllder's joke foundry Is an Inter esting place. The walls of his library In The Alpine, on Broadway, are lit erally papered with photographs of celebrated men and women, most of which bear tho autographs of the origi nals. with some pleasant greeting to the "prince of entertainers," as Mr. Cleveland dubbed him—"tho entertain er of Princes"—as he dubbed himself. "How are jokes made?" "Jokes are like poets." said Wilder, "they are born, not made. They de velop. They evolute. There It: a grub and then there is a butterfly. Julius Caesnr compiled a book of puns, but he never made a Joke, even though he was the victim of a few. Every great event has its jokes. The greater the event, no matter hew serious, the more jokes. They drop around and spring up everywhere. The late war with Spain gave birth (o more jokes than any event since tho flood. "Here are a few: "'The Madrid Government Is trying bard to keep the Bible out of Spain." " 'Why?' " 'So that the Spanish people will not know the exact strength of Sampson.' "That's bad. of course; but it's a war Joke, and we had to accept it. " 'Why is Conrtlandt street, in Now York, like Cuba?' "'Because it's between Liberty and Dey.' "Nothing could be worse than that, but It went There are about a mil lion things like* that and the spirit of patriotism kept them afloat Camera's fleet couldn't sink one of them There are others not so bad: " 'Did you curry the aorse this morn ing, John?' "'Tes, sir.' "'Did you comb cut his tall?* " 'Yes, sir.' " 'Did you remember the Maine?" "Here's another on the same lay: " 'Do you remember tho great bliz zard In New York?' " 'Oh, yes.' " 'Forgot It and remember the Maine.' "If we have another war." said Wilder, "I intend to propose a war tax on every joke, ar.d make it pay its own way." Tho humorist explained the repair department of his factory. "Sometimes a Joke Is a Utile lame. Maybe it has the heaves, mumps, bumps, thumps, grumps; or probably the blind staggers. I can generally cooper it up so that It will pass mus ter. "Very often one Idea serves for a good many Jokes. General Sherman once wrote me a seven-page letter about Jokes and other solemn things. It was byway of acknowledging a copy of my book, 'People f Have Smiled With.' In that letter he told the story of the Irishman who was too much given to strong drink. 'You must sign the pledge and stop drink ing.' said his priest, 'or you will be so saturated with the fumes of liquor that sometime when yon try to blow out a candle your breath will take tire and you will burn up.' " 'Then give mo the pledge,' said Pat, and he wrote: 'I hereby solemnly promise never to blow out a candle again.* "That Is General Sherman's story." continued Mr. Wilder, "and here is the way I fixed It so as to make It fit a particular occasion: " 'You must stop drinking, Pat, or you'll soon be totally blind.' " 'Well,' said Pat, 'I guess I've seen about everything.' "Here Is one of the latest baseball- Isms: "'A foul, a foul,' howled a crank from the grand " 'Nonsense,' said his wife, 'I see no feathers.' " 'Of course not. This Is a picked nine.' "Speaking of Mr. Depew's latest dog story reminds me of another. " 'Rory O'More, there,' said an Irish man, pointing to his canine asleep In the corner. 'Ror.v O'More Is the most Intelligent beast I ever saw. That dog understands every blessed word I say to him. Begorra, I'm studying Ger man just to soe If I can throw him ofT.' "Ever hear the story of the great statesman who resembled Daniel Web ster? A politician settled himself In the chair of an old colored barber who had shaved the Massachusetts states man and orator. " They tell me, Uncle, that I re semble Daniel Webster. What do yon think of It?' " 'Well, boss, I tlnk myself dnt you done resembcr my ole fren'.' " 'Just in what particular do you see a resemblance between me and the great statesman?' " 'Well, I don't 'zaetly see de resem brance, boss; hit's mostly in yo' bref.'" ROBERT W. CRISWELL. Tackle Mnklna. Save shooting, no sport, perhaps, has connected with it more steady-going business in the way of appliances than has angling, and It will rather sur prise many to know that there are hundreds of patents—some of them bringing In thousands a year—dealing with fishing appliances. , The trade, too, is notable for the fact that, save in the making of rods and hooks in the rough, women are the chief workers, almost the whole of the dainty flies and well-secured hooks be ing tied by girls and women, some of whom can fabricate hundreds of trout flies In a day. At least four-fifths of the fishing tackle-making employees are women, many of whom possibly never saw a man fishing in their lives. ' Another notable fact in connection with the trade Is that many of the manufacturing firms have been estab lished for from fifty to one hundred years. England and America but chiefly the former—supply the fishing tackle of the whole world, and all the principal manufacturers have special stocks for India, the Australian colon ies, and the most remote waters of the globe. As to patents, one man has made a fortune out of an artificial spinning bait, and another who invented so ap parently simple an appliance as a nov el kind of rod ring for the line to run through sold the patent for ?50,U00.

"Do you want my daughter for her money or for herself?" demanded the • old geDtleman. "It's this way," stammered the young man, as he tripped backwards over the edge of the rug.

Art. H< iiiHi-kuli.e Fol Their Untie.ly. Much has been written of the won ders of the Klondike goldfields. a cor respondent ' writes, but practically nothing has been said of the almost phenomenal honesty of the miners. What amazed me most during my firsi few days in Dawscn City was tha reck less way in which miners left thou sands of pounds' worth of gold exposed in empty cabins and tents, as if invit ing the first comer to help himself. There were millions lyiug about with out anyone looi.ing after them, and so far as one could see, they belonged to nobody. I explored many of these cabins dur ing their owners' absence, and In the very first cabin I entered I saw a dirty, tattered blanket carelessly thrown over two mackerel kits. I lifted the blanket and found that the kits were almost full to the brim with gold dust and nuggets to the value of at least £5,000. 1 The miner was out prospecting on , Bear Creek, and had no more anxiety about his pile thaa if it were safely housed in the Bank of England. It was the same in nearly every cabin I entered. Gold greeted me every where. There were shelves full of oil-cans, meat-tins, fruit-jars, and buckskin and walrus hags packed with the precious metal, all as unprotected as if they were full of potatoes. One Norwegian miner on Hunker Creek had made a strong-box of a pair of canvas overalls, the legs of which he had sewn up. I lifted the uncanny "safe" and found that it weighed a good 1001b., every ounce of which was virgin gold; and the least value I could place on those dirty overalls was £5,- 000. There were five gallon oil-cans full of gold carelessly pushed under the miners' bunks, every one of which held a fortune, for which most men strove a lifetime. Out on Eldorado Creek there Is a set tlement of miners who have no fewer than fourteen rich claims, and are washing out gold at the rate of many thousands of pounds a week. Their strong room is a common galvanized washing-tub, and when I was there It was three-quarters full of gold, and much too heavy for two strong men to lift. Had I been inclined I might have pinched thousands of pounds worth. Gold abounded on every side which seemed to belong to nobody. Even if a miner leaves his cabin for a week or more, he simply leaves a no tice to this effect attached to the walls. He never thinks of putting a guard over his pile. Of course there have been attempts at theft, but the perpetrators have been Invariably detected. In one recent case the thief managed to carry his booty a distance of ten miles, when cold and exhaustion compelled him to take shelter at the cabin of one of the miners. His host's suspicion was aroused by the man's conduct and by the bags of gold, for which he could not satisfactorily account. The miner detained his guest, com municated with some of his fellows; and fifteen of them assembled In the hut and sat in judgment on the thief. He was found guilty, and half-a-dozen bullets put a sudden end to his career. Such cases, however, are very rare: and it speaks volumes for the honesty of the 40,000 men who are now gather ed in Dawson City that they can see hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of gold lying about, without even thinking of laying hands on it. To my mind by far the luckiest man in the Klondike is a man you have probably never heard of—Halsey Put nam. Before coming to the Klondike, Halsey had tried and failed in almost every calling a man can follow, from blacksmith to laborer in the Brooklyn parks, and from printer to barman. When he reached Dawson he had not the necessary 50 cents for a shave; and %lb. of meat at 70 cents a pound would have put him In the "Bank uruptcy Court." Within a few months Halsey had mined and sold £14,000 worth of gold; and to-day, after little more than a year at his last lucky venture, he could write you a cheque for £50,000, and yet retire on a fortune.
