PLANS FOR rRAssvAAL.
Winston Churchill Outlines Colonial Policy for South Africa.

Policy for South Africa.
 London, July 31.-Winston Spencer Churchill. Parliamentary Secretary of the Colonial once, outlined in the House of Commons today the govern ment's proposal regarding the eonstitu- tion to be granted to the Transvaal.
 The guiding principle. he said, would be not to make any difference between Briton and Boer, but to extend to both the fullest privileges to British eiti- zenship.
 All males 21 years of age who had resided in the Transvaal for six months would be entitled to vote and each dis trict would have single member of parliament irrespective of population. The old Dutch magisterial districts would constitute an electoral area. It is the intention to give the Rand fifty- two seats, Pretoria, six. Krugersdorp, one and the rest of the Transvaal thir- ty seats.
 The members of parliament will be elected for five years and will be paid for their services.
 For the first parliament there will be a second chamber of fifteen mem bers nominated by the crown. During the first session arrangements will be made for an elective second chamber.
 The constitution will contain "a clause abrogating the Chinese labor ordinance after a reasonable time. The recruit ing of Chinese labor will cease entirely November IS.

 When the case came up for trial be- fore the recorder. McLain gave dam again testimony against the defen- dant, and this. combined with the tes- timony of other witnesses tended to convict Sayres despite his own testi- mony vindicating himself.
 McLain was sitting about ten Feet from the door that leads into Mont gomery's bridge of sighs. tho little room adjoining the court occupied by prisoners.
 All testimony being in, the recorder announced to sayres that the evidence was against him and that he would fine him $10 and dosts A gruff voice commanded Sayres to step this way. It was an officer directing Sayres to the prisoners room. Sayres squared to the right andspretended to be ad- vancing toward the door of the room. In flash. he bounced upon McLain and delivered one or two misdirected blows. McLain slided to the floor with Sayres upon him.
 Bicycle Patrolmen Harry Evans and Patrolman Joe Partin quickly grabbed Sayres and pulled him away from Mo- Lain. In the grasp of the officers. Sayres was taken before the recorder and the extra fine was imposed for contempt of court. McLain received no injuries in the scrfmmage but the fiagrancy of the contempt case was intensified against sayres when he was heard to exclaim that he wished he l had broken McLain's neck.
 Sayres was unable to pay both fines and he was locked up last night.

SOME AUGUST DIsHERs
By cornelia c. Bedford.


 With such profusion of vegetables and fruits as are now in our markets there are many dishes which can be prepared more erfectly than at any other time of the year. For this rea- son let us drop the regular menu for a week and pick here and there. se- lecting such results as can best be had with the goods Nature offers us.
 Fried Egg Plant.
 With sharp knife cut firm egg plant in quarter inch slices. Trim off the skin. dip each slice IT. slightly beaten egg. then cover with fine dry bread crumbs. Have some fat heated in kettle: 1t should be at least an inch deep and smoking hot. Drop in as many slices as can be cooked at snce and fry golden brown. When well colored skim out and drain each piece on soft paper before arranging on a hot platter. Do not pile one on another and do not salt or the pieces will quickly lose their crlspncss; serve at once. This method gives more ei- gestible result than sauteing in shallow pan and the preliminary saltIng and pressing out of the acrid juice can bc dispensed with.

two racing yachts that have been built for the defense of the Roosevelt cup against the three German aspirants for that trophy are now engaged in a series of tuning up races.
 These events will probably continue almost daily until the trial races, which will be held during the week of Au- gust 13 under the direction of the Eastern Yacht Club, which originated the international race for these small
 boats and donated the cup named for Presi lent Roosevelt with his permis- sion.
 After the trial races the club will select three of the nineteen yachts to sail against the three German boats,
 which are now being brought to this country, on steamers.

 Toledo. O., July 31.-After month of legal quibbling in the common pleas and circuit court. the cases of the ice men are again in common pleas court before Judge Babcock of Cleveland.
 Through the action of the circuit court the convicted ice men. after serving two weeks in jail were admit ted to bond. Today the irccuit court oyerruled a motion of attorneys for the ice men who claimed the lower court no longer had jurisdictin in the mat ter and the case at once came before the common pleas court
 The point at Issue is whether Judge Kinnade who gave the ice men the maximum sentence promised them lem iency if they entered pleas of guilty, The affidavits of the ice trust att torenys. however. did not show that any promises were made by the judge, but only that. the attorneys believed light sentences would be given in the event that pleas of guilty were enter ed
