In conclusion, the angelic message is
daily heralded. "Glory to God in the
highest, and on earth peace and good
will towards men," How this can be re-
conciled by creating men in his own
image whom God foreknew would do
evil, born, alas. with this natural ten
dency and to go to the devil forever? is
a question for those to answer who state
they believe in the everlasting damna-
ton of the wicked. In such cases it is
no longer the triumph of the Saviour of
mankind; it is alas! the victory of the
Devil, accumulated by each soul wrested
from Jesus; in all such the Devil is the
stronger, for he has in reality bound the
Saviour, but who believes other than in

things in Christ both which are in the
heavens and in the earth. All things
have been subject to Jesus. and now he
is subject to Him that put all things
under him, that God may be all in all,
and all shall give glory to Him in the
heavens above, the earth beneath, and
the waters under the earth. Where is
diversity? Where is rebellion? All things
are subject to the Father! Ii the words
carry their legitimate meaning All
things in the heavens and on EARTH

ton. All things are subject to the Faith

hegira of unemployed persons from sur
rounding and Eastern villages and cities
pouring in here in the hope of obtaining
the support for the winter which seemed
denied to them at home. One
thing, however, seems certain. Condi-
tions as a whole in this city are much
better for the industrial classes than
those of a year ago. and there must be
some extraneous reason for the fact
noted, if it be fact. that there is much
more restitution here than at the same
time in 1894. And the statement sug-
gests the imperative need for more
complete organization of associated
charities to prevent duplication OF "re-
lief" in unworthy cases and provide for
a thorough supervision of the field to
the end that those who really deserve
assistance may not be neglected.

THE sudden death OF
Death OF Eugene Eugene Field, the
Held we'll known writer and
poet, on Monday morning, has cast
deep shadow over journalistic circles in
this city. He is sincerely mourned as a
genial and lovable man and literary
workman whose busy pen conferred en-
inence on the city of his home. Mr.
Field was engaged on the staff of the
Morning Record and Evening News, and
his contributions to these papers were
always a prominent and desirable fea-
ture. Eugene Field will live in the lit
erary history of the country as the poet
of childhood. His verse reached its
highest and most touching expression in
his songs and lyrics celebrating child
life and it's pleasures. His Little Boy
Blue, ""With Trumpet and Drum" and
Clutch Lullaby" we're enough to i'm
mortalize him as the children's poet. Mr..
Field died too early for the worlds en-
joyment, but his fame is secure and he
will live not only in the memory of his
immediate friends, but in the love and
admiration enkindled by his pleasing
verse in those who never knew the
charming personality Chicago has long
known and admired.

A JAPANESE NEW YEAR.
How 1t Was Kept in the Local
COLONY.

Colony.
There was rejoicing. feasting and visit
ing In the Japanese colony yesterday, for
N ixed up with the celebration of the New
Year we're patriotic congratulations and
ardent speeches upon the future of japan
and China.
The New Year is always great fete
with the Mkado's subjects. and very often
a whole weeks holiday Is considered
necessary in order to observe properly he
social functions il entails In Japan. Be-
fore Western civilization took hold of the
little islands the japanese new year was
identical with the Chinese. but only very
orthodox or very old people who cling to
the customs of their youth use the old cal
endar now, the first of January having be-
come the acknowledged New Years day
In japan.
Yesterday was ushered in at the consul
late to the sound of martial music. A,
number of Japanese students who put In
their spare time playing upon brazen in
Struments, agreed some days beforehand
to give their Consul a surprise serenade,
and true to their vow these virtuosi assem-
bicd outside his residence on Pine street
and struck up Sousa march. just as the
clocks we're striking the hour of midnight.
The Consul and his retainers had gone 10
sleep of the just, but hearing the martial
sounds, they at once arose and invited the
vlrtuosi to enter and exchange good wishes
with them for the coming year.
Another body of japanese held late
watch meeting in Germania Hall on
OFarrell street, where many speeches of
generalization were exchanged upon the
mighty strides that their country had
made during 1894. PROF. bets were not
wanting to predict that 1895 would see
Japan 'ruling the wave OF Eastern Asia
at least, If not of the world.
One of the Japanese customs that was
adhered 20 by number of families yester-
day is that of placing a small fir-tree at
either side of the doorway. Some of The
clubs and restaurants were also very
gorgeously decorated.
There is aquaint dining-hall beside the
Office of the Japanese paper, the San Fran
cisco News. Yesterday this was gorgeous
with flags. lanterns and garlands Strung
across the yard were heavy bands of
twisted evergreen, and conspicuous
among the leaves were such odd decora-
lions as large red Holsters, pink crabs and
other eomestibles.
1t is Japanese custom to play game
of cards called "Hickunfunshi" on New
Years day. There was very little time
