The decorations in Native Sons’ Hall on the occasion of the anniversary ball given by Stanford Parior were the conception of the mind of A. ¥. Schleicher, one of the members, and it was generaily admitted that it surpassed for originality, perfec- tion of details and softness of eifect any previously seen in that The rose | colored drapery of soft materials was hung in most graceful and artistic folds and was ornamented with ball trimming of the same hue. The golden curtaln at | the rear of the stage was a gewm of the | decorator’'s art and was illumined with a large number of electric lights, which added much to the effect. Pots filled with peach blossoms set on the floor and around which the dancers moved in the grand march added very much to the prettiness of the scene. Lhe sashes worn | by the committeemen across the breast under the dress vest were of watered pink ribbon and were suggested by the ribbon worn by the President of the French re- public. pretty opne. The parlor has reason to feel proud of its decorator member. Native Daughters.

Grand Vice President Mrs. Ema Gett will shortly visit the pariors in Crescent City, FKortuna and kureka, Humboldt County. The first anniversary of the institution |o1 Copa de Uro Parlor of Hollister was celebrated on the 26th of last month by a | gathering In Odd Fellows' Hall in that |city. There was an admirable pro- gramme, which included an eloquent ad- and Tonn and Miss Watson; banjo duet, | Messrs. Conlan and Ware; recitation, James Piratsk vocal solo. Miss Mabel Podra; recitation, Mrs. Carrie Jackson; vocal solo, Grace Austin, and solo and chorus, Messrs. Willlams, McConneil, Shaw and Crane. Dancing and games followed and during the evening a choice | collation was served. La Paloma Parlor of Gilroy a few even- ings since gave a grand hall, which was one of the social successes of that city. The event was in Music Hall, which was tastefully decorated and was exceedingly pretty. The grand march was Fay Peabody, the president, with W. F. | Blake. During the evening twenty couples contested for two prizes offered by Mrs. Peabody. These were awarded to Robert | Peck and Miss Kathrine Spallarosa. At | midnight a fine supper was served. On the 17th of last month there was a joint meeting of the membership of Chispa and Ione Parlor of Ione and friends to en- joy a social evening and a banquet, and right royally were the members and their guests entertained. There was & pro- gramme of Instrumental and vocal musio, recitations and cakewalks and funny varns. The old folks cast aside care and | were as merry as the younger ones and | took great delight In dancing old style break downs and Virginia reels. During the evening some very interesting recol- lections of old times were given by “Uncle” Joe Tithan, Mrs. I. B. Gregory, Jack Browning, J. D. Perkins and others of the old-timers, including George Wool- sey, who, by many questions, served to make the speakers tell a great deal they had forgotten. It was all in all a merry crowd and all had & jolly good time. The National Union. The entertainment that was recently | given by the National Union Soelal and | Literary Club under the patronage of the San Francisco Cabinet was one of the grandest soclal functions that has ever been given by this order. The talent was of the best, and the dancing programme was of that arrangement that there was no opportunity for complaint. The enter- tainments given by this club have already become the talk of fraternal people and others, and whenever there is an an- nouncement that it will give an enter- tainment there is a great demand for tickets. It is the aim of W. W. Healey, E. A. Kidd, J. N. Bunting and F. H. Hast- ings, the committee In charge, to make these affairs the most attractive of all fraternal functions. Reports from various local councils show a healthy condition cf affairs, and the order is at this time doing well and adding some of the best people of the community to its membership. On the night of the 6th inst. there will be an interesting event in California Councfl, for those two well-known heavy- weight athletes, the recording secretary ‘and the chaplain, will, after the adjourn- ment of the session, give an exhibition of scientific boxing, not a “slogging match,” but a glove contest fortgloln'.!.

Foss, C. T. Wendell, A. Sichel, E. A. Kidd, E. G. McBain, C. L. Gage and R. W. Smith. The programme, like the invitation to at- | tena” the smoker, was a gem, for it pleased to the utmost the large number | of gentlemen who filled the council room in Elks’ Hall to its limit. There was an overture by Sichel’s orchestra, vocal solos by E. C. McBain, R. W. Smith and C. L. Gage, vocal selections by the California Quartet, funnyisms by Billy Hynes, violia | solo by J. H. Hall, dramatic selections by D. E. Hanlon, trombone solo by a volun- teer and short but pointed and {merestlng addresses by State Deputy J. N. Bunting and ex-State Senator J. E. Field.

The gentlemen's booby was a ncat- bound copy of “Rules of the Game of earts.”” The special guest of the evening was Colonel Bennett of San Jose, who has made an excellent record as se- nfor vice commander. He was received by a committee, corsisiing of Past Division Commander C. L. Plerce, Division Co: mander Harry T, Moore, Division Coun- cilman A. J. Weinert, Quartermaster W. E. Lawrance, Ald de Camp Frank S. Captain ‘Oscar Judell and the officers of the Ladies’ Aid Soclety. The fourteenth annual encampment of the California Division of the Sons of Vet- erans will be held in this city on the 7th of next May. There will be a spirited con- test for the gollllon of commander, but it is belleved that the choice will fall on A. G. Bennett, the senior vice, who !s in line of promotion and has been admired for the good work he has done for the ordar in the past two years. Sons of Exempts. Last Monday night thers was great jolli- fication in the hall of the Exempts on Brenham place, for there the Sons of Ex- empts gave another of their very enjay- able smokers.

On_the 2ith of last month the members of Redwood Circle of the Women of Woodcraft gave an entertainment in the Pythian Castle that filled the hall to its utmost with an audience that was treated to a most excellent programme. After a iano recital by Mrs. E. A. Newman, Past glud Counsel M. T. Moses of Golden Gate Camp delivered a fraternal address, drawing attention to the good work that the circle was engaged in. E.
