PERSONETTE
BY Niksah.
John Butler Yeats.


Artist, critic, and the father Of w.
B. Yeats, the Irish poet, has de-
cided opinions on many other
things beside arts. He lives at
Petitpas, a most foreign-seeming
place, a cross between a French
pension and cafe, in the West
,Twenties in New York. In the
dining room. which one enters
through the kitchen, dinner is a
way of passing the evening, and a
very delightful way, rather than a
mere means of nourishment. Here
Mr.. Yeats may be seen every even
ing presiding at his table in the
great variety of subjects to his
corner and holding forth on a
eagerly listening fellow diners. To
get place at his table is an event
in many young artists or writ
er's life.
He is a patriarchial old man,
with a kindly face, keen eyes, a
hushy white beard and a twinkling
sense of humor. Conversation at
his table is rather in the form of q
monologue by him, but his listen
ers much prefer it that way.
Cream" he will say suddenly.
l"You Americans put cream on ev-
erything. cream on your puddings,
cream on your porridge, cream in
your coffee, cream on your fruit.
And you live whole life like that.
You live creamily, with everything
smooth and rich and luxurious.
Creamy is the best adjective to de-
scribe your national life. Cream
mess is your national ambition"
/ Or in a discussion Of matrimony:

WILL BURN PART !
OF PLANT BEFORE
, THEY SHUT DOWN

In some sections Of the country
II is said that householders arr.
burning their furniture for heat,
and 1t looks as II the same spirit
still exists here among manufac-
turers. 80
With q supply Of coal on hand
sufficient for little more than one
days heating Of the plant. the Rock
Island Pillow company is not con-
sidering closing. S. 8. Davis, one
Of the high officials, said today that
orders have been placed for coal and
all kinds Of material needed, and
that these are on the way.
believe me. we'll burn up part
Of our building for fuel before we'll
shut down and turn our men out
Of employment" he said, this aft
ernoon. He said there was little
fuel available, but that relief was
hoped for.

MERCHANTS TO
ASK FOR MORE
time TO SELL
Committee VIM be Named to Go Be.
Z. fore the Joint Coal Conserva-
tl0n Board.

A protest in part, at least, against
orders Of the joint coal conserva-
ton committee may be voiced to-
morrow afternoon by downtown
merchants. it was learned today.
A number Of merchants were
scheduled to 90 into session at the
Rock Island club q 4:30 o'clock
this afternoon to appoint commit
tec to represent them at the meet
ing Of the joint coal conservation
committee tomorrow.
Some of the larger merchants
with large stocks of holiday goods
on hand were said to have taken the
steps that led to the calling of the
meeting to which any merchant in
the city was welcome to attend.
George H.: Kingsbury, secretary
of the Business Mems association.
said that the merchants were plan-
ming ON a full discussion Of the ca
tire coal restriction regulations as
they affect retail business. and
would instruct their committee to
lay the case before the coal con-
ser7ation committee tomorrow.
Want Longer Hours.
The merchants will ask longer
hours Of business. 1t was under
stood. Statements were also heard
that It il not the merchants inten-
ton to bolt the restrictions entire
ly, but to set forth their case in a
light that would show that they are
entitled to have their stores open
longer hours and thereby give them
a chance to sell the large stocks Of
holiday goods. Contentious will
also be made that as the coal min
ers have agreed to 60 back to work
there is less reason why the regu-
lations should be so strictly o3-
served, it is understood.s

There ought to be cross-examin-
atoms for the would-be welded"
he remarked. "Just as the old
sailors question a new one on what
he would do in an emergency, so
ought the old and hardened hus-
bands question the prospective
benedict. They should ask him
what he would do il his wife came
to breakfast in curl papers, could
his love stand the strain of years
Of bad coffee, did he realize fully
that matrimony was one long
struggle with in-laws? In the
same way the wives of long stand
ing should examine the bride-to-
be. Would she smile sweetly when
she, found q burning cigaret on her
best table cover! Would she re-
frain from calling up the ONCE in
the evening IL her husband had
told her he was staying down to
work? And so on. There would be
fewer divorces-in fact there would
be fewer marriages"

RES.IDENCEAN
JAIL Combined,
BOARD DECIDES


Action was taken by the board Of
supervisors yesterday afternoon,
providing for the construction Of
the sheriff's residence and heating
plant AZ part Of the new county
Jail that is to be erected ON FIJI
teenth street, directly opposite the
court house: The heating plant
will take care Of both court house
and jail In cold months.
The question had involved con-
siderable discussion among the
board members. Many had held
out for a separate structure to
house the sheriff and central heat
ing plant. The project involves a
total outlay of $139,611
The boilers used in the present
heating plant are to be utilized in
the new structure, which will ma
tefiaily reduce the extra cost in
VOWED in transferring the plant.
There were three issues up for
discussion At yesterdays meeting
concerning the final plans for the
Jail. Consideration was given to
the proposition for construction Of
a heating plant separate from the
Jail to supply heat only for the jail
and residence. Some argued for
the continued use of the present
heating plant for the new building
It finally simmered down to an
agreement upon q central plant in
the jail.
Fav0rd Residence.
Supervisor Schillinger presented
arguments in favor Of a residence
for the sheriff to be constructed
separate from the Jail on the prop
erty adjoining to the south. HI
commended this would provide {
means Of forestalling any litiga'
ton property owners may be con
templating against the county t.
prevent, II possible, erection Of tn.
Jail on the new site. An option OF
the residence site is held by tn
county, and it was offered for sal,
at figure said to be $4,000.
