When all of them are'combined in a single feature thay make pretty good material not only for the critic, but also for the aver- age patron of the cinema. Such a gal- axy is presented in the Mack Sennet* 8ix reel comedy-melodrama, "Tae Crossroads of New York," that open- ed a run yesterday at the Allen the atre. The picture marks Mr. Sen- nett's second recent entry in the fleld of comedy drama and like its predecessor, "Molly 0," presents a Late Mrs. Elizabeth Clark.

Springfield, Ill, Aug. 25.--Coa! mine operators in Central Illinois to- day announced they had increased the price of coal $1.25 a ton. The rise was followed by a protest from sub-district officials of the United Mine Workers, who termed the in- crease 'legalized robbery." "Miners have returned to work under the same wages and condi- tions," Secretary John Watt of the sub-district said. 'There has been small loss to either miners or opera- tors. Because of the great quantity of coal stored, and the fact that mines would have been idle whathar or not there had been a strike, the operators with good grace lay their increase in prices to the losses thay bear. It is just plain profiteering." A DISASTROUS FLOOD IN NEW YORK STATE Caused by a Cloudburst--In- cessant All-night Rain Storm.

Brochu, and {the latter's declaration that he had forwarded his report to Montreal, {were the only developments of the |day in the sensational affair. "I {have nothing to say on the matter, and do not see what is expected," | Mr. Taschereau. On the lowing declarations: | "1 cannot give you the report I| have prepared because it will first] come before the court in Montreal on the 30th inst., and until then I] intend to make no statement. 1 have heard I would be called to tes-| tify" Regarding the possibility of mak- ing a report to the lleutenant-gov- | ernor in the event of Delorme being | declared sane, in his opinion, Dr. | Brochu said: "The exact bearing of | my report must be understood first. | I am answering a request from the | civil courts, and I never sald that| my patient was sane or insane.
