Baseball Will
Attract Fans
Mill and Smelter Teams Will Usher in
Another Season of the Diamond
Pastime at McGiIl This Afternoon

Chaos in baseball circles at MeGill
will be compelled to give way to un-
bounded enthusiasm this afternoon
when the Mill and Smelter
teams begin hostilites on the inaugur-
al day of the 1916 season. The op-
posing aggregations are ready for
today's fray, confident that they will
win
Easy pickings' is what Charles
Mitchell. the pilot of the concentrator
gang. said on being interviewed as
to the outcome of the opening en-
|gagement. Frank Jameson. the boss
boilermaker, is confidence personified
and remarks that the clash looks to
him like easy money and he has no
desire to mislead the public either.
In fact both leaders are endeavoring
to convey the impression that they
have what the slang whackers call
a lead pipe skinooch.'
Far be it from us to make any
predictions about baseball this year.
We don't know all the players, and
not knowing will not make any prog
nostieations. That belongs to wiser
heads
Baseball always has been an event
with a big E at the smelter town and
it will continue to be as long as the
great American mania holds the pub
lie in its tentacled grasp. Sane and
sober business men have found the
bug a-biting them for the last month,
and the incubation has been increas-
ing the last few days. They are
anxious to hear the umpire's shrill
voice which will bring the opposing
forces together in the initial struggle.
The schedule that has been adopted
calls for thirty-two games. The only
open dates during the playing sea-
son are Fourth of July, Pioneer Day
and Labor Day. Games will be play
ed on Sundays and Wednesdays of
each week. The season will close
on september 10.

ITALY LOSES HER
FIRST WAR VESSEL
Cruiser Arnalh Sunk In the
Adriatic-French Cruiser
Sinks German Sub.
By AssocrArED pREss.

London, July S.-The Italian navy
has suffered its first serious loss. An
Austrian submarine has torpedoed
the cruiser Amalfi in the Adriatic.
Most of the crew were saved.
As an Offset it is claimed French
warship sunk a Germen submarine
in the channel. The British admiralty
also announced tonight it was Brit
ish submarine which torpedoed Ger
man warship in the Baltic recently,
although no details are added to the
brief statement of the Russian official
communication the day after the at
tack took place.
All belligerents are rapidly build
ing submarines. Austria is reported
to have nine at Pola alone.
AS far as the land battles are con-
cerned interest still centers in South
ern Poland where the Russians,
strongly reinforced, have held up the
Austro-German attempt to outfank
Warsaw from the southwest. Aus
TRANS tonight admit they have with
drawn from the hills north of Krans-
mix before superior Russian forces.
Further heavy fighting must take
place in this region. Russian mill
tary writer's express confidence that
any effort by the Germanic allies tc
deliver a lightning blow has been dis
counted and the Russians can hole
their positions and perhaps drive the
invaders back.
While this is going on it Is believed
there is little probability of the Ger
mans detaching their eastern forces
for renewed offensive in the wes'
and if such a move is made it mus
be undertaken by fresh troops. There
is already heavy fighting in the west
especially in the Woevre district.

GLENN TERRELL
NAMED ASST. TO

Takes Place of c. o. An
drews Who Assumes Po-
sition Newly Created
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.

Tallahassee, July Sit was an
nounced today that Hon. Glenn Ter
reIl, of Sumpter county, state senator
from the Twentieth district, has been
selected as an assistant to the attor-
ney general.
Since Judge Ellis resigned as at
torney for the trustees of the internal
improvement fund and commissioners
of everglades drainage district to ac-
cept the position of justice of the SUI
preme court, to which he had been
elected, Attorney General T. F. West
has been doing the work of these
board. In view of this additional
work in this Office, which is of great
Importance, it was thought advisable
by the legislature to provide for the
employment of an additional man,
and the employment was authorized.
G. o. Andrews, who has been in the
Office for several years, was given the
place created by the legislature, and
Mr.. terrell takes the place formerly
held by Mr.. Andrews.
Senator Terrell is a man who has
educated himself by his own efforts,
and while most of his time has been
spent as teacher, he having been
principal of several of the high
schools in the state, he has also had
considerable experience as a lawyer,
and his experience as a member of
the legislature and familiarity with
the statute laws of the state will
make him a valuable man in the at
torney generals Office. He is highly
regarded throughout the state and
was recently rendered the position of
assistant state auditor when Hon. R.
A. Gray resigned that position to &C
cept the appointment of private sec
rotary to the governor. He declined
this position and accepted the posi-
ton in the attorney generals office.
Senator Terrell is regarded as one
of the strong young men of the state.
He is clean and capable and worker.
His selection is regarded as a very
happy one.
