CAI BROUGiH
HIM $1,000
Seattle, Aug., 5? Dick Williams, a
prominent operator in the Toaopah
district, who cl?ims lo be the first man
to bring a cat iulo the Yukon, is telling
many good storie9 of the early days In
Alaska. One of bis best is the follow
iog:
"The cat that made iuo famous," said
Williams, ''like main famous men, hjd
a humble pedigree. I picked her up in
an ally in Seattle between First and
Second avenue.'1, one night iu August
1897. Ne>t day ! went north. I
brought the cat along for company as
it was my first trip, and I had no
thought then of making a profit of it.
Dawson was a mighty homeless piaco
the winter of 1897-'98. I arrived on
one of the last biats that fall and to my
astonishment hundreds came to see the
eat and offer after offer to purchase it
l>ouri-d in. The camp was lively
enough, but its lonesunieness consisted
iu the absence of home touches, an i
absence whirh my cat seemed tosupply.
I liually had to sell pussy as my money |
ran out, and I gnt souewhat over a 1
thousand dollars for her. f do not j
believe that a homeless cat ever sold |
for so much before in all history. Next
summer they brought in a boat load of
cats that the miners eagerly bought,
and from that time on the price of cats
decreased and their number grew."
