THE GEOGRAPHY OF
200 YEARS AGO
Rare Old Atlas of the World in keo-
, kuk Library is Int.rtsting
Book.

In the library of John NJ. Huiskamp
which contains number of rare old
volumes. is an atlas of the world
printed about the year 1880, in Am
sterdam, Holland, and containing
maps OF the entire world as it was
then known
The work is a valuable relic of early
geographical research and was print
ed under the auspices OF William the
Third, king of England, and compiled
by Nicholas visscher, an atlas maker
of Amstelaedam, as Amsterdam was
then called.
There are about 80 large maps in
the book, including one which shows
the greater part of North America
Mississippi river is given the name
of Rio de Spiritus Santo, meaning
River OF the Holy Spirit, and while the
map of North America is mis-shapen
and crude compared to the present
map. a very good outline of the coun-
try is shown. The map shows about
six great rivers all emptying into the
same bay at New Orleans and the
great lakes are located in Canada. ST
Augustine is about the only city 10
Gated on tee map.
The atlas is most interesting old
book and contains number of superb
steel engravings on each page. The
book was picked up by Mr.. HuiskamI
on some OF his travels and he prizes
/ it quite highly. 1t is one of the raresi
i old books of its kind in existence.

MUST Gut LOOSE
BEFORE JUNE |
Manager Frank Rels is Confronted
With knosty Problem, When
He Attempts 70 Get
Within Limit.
THREE PLAYERS TO Go
Likely That II will be TWO Pitchers
and One of the oushelder-
Belt Has Not Made
Public His Plans.

With the time for cutting down his
PLAYERS TO thirteen but a little more
than q week OF. Manager Frank Belt
Is confronted with a knotty problem
IN baseball and one that viii tar his
judgment and possibly settle or in
crease Keokuks chances for the 1910
pennant- The bugs are extending
their opinions-not openly, however
and the situation has caused no little
speculation
To get within the limit he can ac-
eomplish il in the following ways:
By releasing or disposing OF one
outfelder and two pitchers
By disposing Of one catcher and TWO
pitchers.
By disposing OF one catcher. one
pitcher and one outheldr.
Now which OF the three moves is
the sane one TO make? And who will
the pitchers or outhelders be?
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1910-05-23
Herr is the Done

II he is TO release a catcher the
only one he can lei go is Sweeley
But this viii throw burden of the
work upon his own shoulders. Belt
main asset IS head work. and If he re
tains only the old pitchers that asset
should not be such a valuable one.
Therefore it would be a feasible plan
TO retain Sweeley for substitute
catcher and utility outfelder.
1t would be better after June first to
cut loose two pitchers than have list
OF five for the staff Managers have
learned by experience that unless
pitchers worked with some regularity
and often enough they do not deliver
the goods. There is a strong prob
ability that the four old pitchers will
be retained. although to many Edlich
looks mighty good.
