Jonas, who presided during the first half of the festivities, declared some, tbe task of acting foolishly was easier to soma than to others, for it came naturally to a lot of members.

There is a large crown on hand, despite the storm, and those who attended vers glad they came, for never has the Unity Club conducted a mors successful entertainment. Parodies, written by members of the club, were sung by Joseph Schwartz, tbe audience joining la on the second chorus. Tbe authors ot these parodies, after ths singing of the song, were called lo the platform, where punishment was meted out to them by Nathan S. Jonas, who presided over the first half of tbe entertainment, and by Mitchell May, Secretary State, who proslried over the second half of the carnival. There were many witty remarks passed by the entertainers, and all of the parodies contained some reference to different members.

The Houston Line's steamship Hyades arrived at tho bar long before sunrise, from Rusario, Buenos Ayros, Montevideo. Clenfuegos, Havana and Ma- lanzas, but it was not until late in tho day that she reached her berth at tho New York Dock Company's Pier 38, Atlantic Dock. She brought a cargo of quebracho wood, hides and sundries, having lauded most of her lading before arriving at this port.

Detective Dougherty Lectures to North End Progressive Club. A large audience was attracted lo Library Hall last night, where Detective Harry V.

Dougherty delivered his Interesting lecture on "Criminology." This lecture was held under the auspices of the North End Progressive Club ot the sixteenth Assembly District, and was the nrst or a series wnicn is oeing arnugeu, of tre. opticon slides. Mr. Dougherty said that to his mind the finger-print system now in vogue is the most effective way of identifying criminals. Ho said that method is one of the oldest known.

It has been traced back to tho early Chinese, who employed it instead of a signature. The difficulty is that a fingerprint Is valueless unless at least a Joint was obtainable. "And besides," he remarked, "the yeggmen are all wearing kid gloves nowadays." Mr. Dougherty, In conclusion, tool: up the problem of protecting suburban homes, which, he claimed, was a very difficult matter, because midnight visitors seldom entered a house without previously studying the "lay of the land," the modes of entrauce and egress, etc. He said a light could be guaranteed as a sure method of keeping thieves away.

The officers of the dub arc: Leonard Niedrach, president; H. Moore, first vice president; M. Chapman, second vice president; L. Bachrach, treasurer; F. Wright, secretary; E.

J. Montagne, corresponding secretary; F. McCain, financial secretary; C. Wagner, sergeant-at-arms. BASKETBALL AT H0LY0KE.

Launching Into the suffrage question, ns far as the Order of the Eastern Star was roncerned, Mrs. Goodeson left tho impression that she was not opposed to the votes for women at the proper time, when conditions demanded It, but she believed that it was quite essential that the boys of the present generation should ho educated to the right Ideals of citizenship and be properly prepared for the ballot before the equal suffrage proposition was taken up seriously not only In this State as a political question, but as a problem of the order as well.

Siegfried Geismar, who meets tho "alumni," former boys and girls of tho Hebrew Orphan Asylum, every Thursday evening, and who has succeeded lu aid ing them in many ways, last night lectured on "The Face, an Index to Character." She spoke of her work with tho deaf and said, though the pupils looked extremely unpromising as beginners, It was remarkable how changed the facial expression became with the acquisition of new thoughts. She Bhowed how thoroughly dependent such a child is upon what it can understand through the eye. I and how readily It detects from tho face or a person wnetner or not the latter's friendship Is worth cultivating. She explained how we Involuntarily study the face to read feelings of Joy, anger, pain or disappointment, and continued: "One's every thought leaves Its 1m- ii ik. -i I Vuu JL" ft tllat we often hear that husbaud and wife grow to resemble each other, if, Indeed, they shnre each other's evory thought.

Thus, too, we can often deter- mine tue cuosen caning or a man oy tno lmnrlnt It has made, unnn hi. I.e." Mr. Geismar closed with the nre.ont.. tlon of portraits of strong faces, tho familiar of which was tho face of illlatu Pendry, 1012 Gates avenue. It was thcu that, by the adoption ot a resolution, it was decided to reject the offer of Richard Weber and his sister, Mrs.

Anna Huss, who more than two years ago agreed to donate the three-story btick building, 42 Irving avenue, valued at that time at $16,000, providing the nursery association would pay off a mortgage of Js.t'OO. After considering ths offer and making investigation, the members learned that, in addition to the mortgage, Jll.Oot) would be required for such alterations as would make the building suitable for nursery purposes. For a whole year a vigorous campaign was In progress, in which nearly everyone took a hand. Religious, social, civic, political and many other organizations interested themselves, and at the expiration of the first year $7,000 had been raised. After that the money did not come in us rapidly as before, and It required the united efforts of the members to bring about tho raising of tho remaining to pay the mortgage.

Then, at a meeting of the association, it was decided to keep the mouey in bank until the remaining Ji.OOO for alteration purposes was in band. lu the meantime, arrangements were made for other concerts and various means for increasing the amount, and a committee, accompanied by expert mechanics, made an Inspection of the building and discovered that in order to make the building acceptable to the various city departments, would involve an expense of 14,000 or more. This was $2,000 more than was expected, and to make matters worse, the sewer connected with the building is in such a condition that backs up in rainy weather, which dif ficulty would also Involve additional expense. Since every method of raising money has been resorted to by the association It could not see Its way clear to over come the new difficulty that confronted it, namely, the raising of an additional $2,000 or J3.000, which would bring the total up to $12,000 or more. Numerous letters were sent to Mr.

Weber, asking that the association be permitted to sell the building aud. with the proceeds purchase another one that would not involve so great an expense. To this Mr. Weber objected, and after several hours ot discussion at last night's meeting, the following resolution was offered and adopted. 'Whereas, Unforeseen conditions having arisen In connection with the taking over of the premises at 42 Irving avenu it would cost a sum far in excess of that originally estimated, and because of tho requirements ot the several city depart ments, and the conditional exaction of the donors, Richard Weber and Mrs.

A. H. Hubs, that the said premises must be maintained permanently as a Day Nursery, irrespective of circumstances; therefore, be it 'Resolved. That it Is with much regret that wo are forced to forego tho offer so generously made; and, be it further 'Resolved, That the huildjng fund ac quired be used to the best possible advantage to secure a new nursery building that shall reflect the generosity of the original offer." The resolution was adopted anil a copy will be sent to Mr. Weber and Mrs.

Hues. At last night meeting SI Uti was added to the previous fund, making a total of The meeting was presided over bv Dr. C. T. Schondclmeir, and W.
