Depew's Earliest Joke.

Chauncey Depew has great renown as an
after dinner speaker and is never at loss
for good story or witty retort. There is
great deal of preparation about Depew' q
jokes but many Of his bright sayings are
srontareous and the result Of the inspira-
tion Of the moment.
1t is said that this very clever man keeps
a private secretary clipping good jokes
from the newspapers and has volumes of
scrapbooks, carefully indexed, filed with
sitlA splitting stories adapted to all the
exigencies of life. These jokes and stories,
1t Is alleged, are studied carefully by De-
pew, and with ready wit arc made apropos
whenever occasion demands.
These aids to humor are, however, only
used as material by this very busy man,
who does not lack for inspiration in aid Of
himself. Depew can always relieve the ten
sion of strained situation by humorous
turn, and this faculty was characteristic
of his youth, as is Illustrated by the fol-
lowing story:
When boy, Depew was slow and ex-
asperating reader. One day he was all
tangled up over the phrase, my yoke Is
easy, and my burden Is light. His teacher
thundered at him:
Read that again, sir; you re all wrong T"
Chauncey dashed at the phrase with
great vigor and shouted
my burden is easy, and my joke Is
light"
In the laugh which followed the teachers g
anger evaporated. Chicago Times Herald.
