THEY FOUND COW ON ISLAND.
So Frenchmen Called Tt Cow Island
Name Still Sticks.

Leavenworth, Kan, Oct. 2S.-The
first COW and the first horse ever dis
covered in this section of the country,
of which there is any record, were
found near what is now the site of
the village of Oak Mills, ten miles
above Leavenworth. Several centuries
ago the French explorers who ven
tured up the Missouri river, discover
ed a stray COW on an island opposite
the present site of Oak Mills. They
gave this island the name of Isle au
Vache, or Cow island, by which it is
known to this day. 1t is supposed that
the COW had been stolen by the Kan
sas Indians from the white settlement
at Liberty, Mo-, and placed on this
island to prevent her escape.
When Lewis and Clark came up the
Missouri river on their famous explor
ing expedition in 1904. they came
across a deserted traders establish
ment near where Oak Mills is now To-
Gated, or as they state, "a short dis
lance above Cow island, on the south
side of the river" There they picked
I'D a stray horse, which they took with
them on their trip up the river.
