Estray Notice.
Dick Willi ams, a prominent oper
ator in the Tonopah district, who
claims to be the first man to bring a
cat into Yukon is telling for the
benefit of those interested in the
prospective
Alaska-Yukon-Pacific
Exposition which opens at Seattle
June ist 1909, many tales of the
early days. As the exposition hopes
to reproduce many famous scenes
and cabins of the stirring days of
1897-‘98 Williams’ stories are of
interest and assistance.
“The cat that made me famous’’
said Williams, “like many famous
men, had a humble pedigree.
I
picked her up in an alley in Seattle
between First and Second Avenue
one night in August 1897.
Next
day I 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.
1 kiwson
was a mighty homeless place the
winter of 1897.‘98.
1 arrived on
one of the last boats that fall and to
my astonishment hundreds came to
see the cat and offer after offer to
purchase it poured in. The camp
was lively enough, but its lonesome
ness consisted in the absence of home
touches, an absence which my cat
seemed to supply. I finally had to
sell pussy as my money ran out, ami
I got over a thousand dollars for
her. 1 do not believe that a home
less cat ever sold for so much before
in all history. Next summer they
brought in a boat load of cats w hich
the men eagerly bought, and from
that time on the price of cats de-
creased and their number grew .
