NATIVE DAUGHTERS.

The indoor picnic that was recently given by Joaquin Parlor in Stockton was a novelty in the line of entertainment in that city. The large, bleak, barren hall, known as the Agricultural Pavilion, in which it was held for two nights, was converted into an aggregation of booths and bowers with promenade around the dance floor. There were games, such as croquet, enchantment, quoits, bean bag and others. and there was a donkey and cart for the little ones, feature which they much appreciated. Then there was a shooting gallery in the wild woods,'' a gypsy booth and a fish pond surrounded by dense willows. Each evening the Sixth Regiment band discoursed sweet music and many filled the dance floor and joined in the modern dances. This was given in aid of the fund for the entertainment of the Grand Parlor delegates, who are to meet in Stockton next year, and it proved a great success, socially and financially. Joaquin Parlor will give euchre party each month until next June, and in the meantime other entertainments of an at tractive character will be arranged.
 Fremont Parlor gave pleasant enter tainment and hop last week in aid of it's sick fund. It was success in every way.
