Not realizing what trouble and uneasi-
ness her absence was causing her par
ents, Fannie Rozinsky, four years old.
daughter of Joseph Rozinsky, grocer at
1880 F street northeast, slept soundly
last night in the bushes not far from
Mount Olivet cemetery. James Smith,
colored. of 1865 Turner street. found the
sleeping child this morning shortly be-
fore Z o'clock while on his way to work.
He took the child to the house Of his en-
ployer, John Burke, 1913 Neale street,
where she was given bath and break
fast.
Sergt. Ellsworth of the ninth police pre-
cinct was told Of the finding Of the child
and he accompanied Mr.. and Mrs. Ro-
zinsky to the Burke home. They were
greatly excited over the incident, but the
child was too young to realize what
trouble she had caused. She ran to her
parents as soon as they entered the house
and showed how happy she was to be re-
stored to them.
Taken Away by a Boy.
"a boy brought me out in the woods and
left me-" she explained, but don't know
who he was"
Fannie was hurried homeward by her
parents. Friends and relatives who had
participated In the all-night search for
the missing child were at the F street
house to greet the child and her parents.
The child had slept soundiy all night and
she showed not the slightest signs of IA
tigue. Shortly .after she reached home
she was playingsOn the pavement in front
of her home.Sbut her mother, who had not
fully recovered from her nervousness,
kept a watcifui' eye on: her.
Disappearance Last Night.
Last night about o'clock the child
was missed from the vicinity of the home
OF her parents. 1t was thought she was
playing about the neighbOrhood, however,
and no uneasiness was felt for her. An
hour later, when she had not returned,
her parents became alarmed and sought
the assistance of the police. Neighbors
became interested and participated in tue
search, some OF them remaining out ILL
night.
One woman living in the neighborhood
alarmed the parents by telling them she
had seen the child walking with a strange
man. Her statement gave rise to report
that the little one had been kidnapped and
interest in the search was increased, al
though the police had no idea that the
child had been taken away. They ex-
pressed the belief that she had gone
far away from home and been lost.
This morning James Smith was walking
through the bushes on his way to work
when he discovered what he thought was
a bundle of rags In the bushes. STOPPING
to make an examination of the bundle,
he discovered the sleeping child. Not be-
ing able to identity the child and think
ing she was stranger in that neighbor-
hood, Smith aroused her and carried her
to the Burke home.

DENIES BOARDS RIGHT
TO FORCE VACCINATION
Regulation Declared to Be
Based on a Law Now
Obsolete.

That several members of the board
OF education are in sympathy with the
Observation-Disclosures, and that one member
sends his child to an out-of-town school
to escape vaccination, is the statement
made by one Of the officers of the Per-
sonal Liberty League today.
The Anti-Vaccination Society and the
Personal Liberty League are confident
the board will modify the compulsory
incubation regulation following the hear
ing next Tuesday afternoon of the case
OF Charles Castle. whose children
were barred from school because they
were not vaccinated. The members of
these organizations, through their coun-
sci. Charles Darr, expect to prove that
the regulation Is based on an obsolete
law, and, therefore, the board has no
authority to suspend pupils who are not
vaccinated.
The hearing was scheduled to have been
held this afternoon, but on account Of
previous engagements the attorneys
asked for a postponement until Tuesday
afternoon at 3 o'clock.
Points to Later Act.
At this meeting, before a committee of
school authorities are unwarranted in
their proceedings, because the regulation
they are adhering to is based on the law
of June %. 1854. which is superseded by
the act of Congress of March 3, 1897.
The latter law provides for compulsory
vaccination only when the Commission
ers. fearing an epidemic. shall have is
today. Mr.. Dsrr said:
Even IL the law of 1865 was still in
force, the board would be wrong in fol-
ton of this law gives it no authority
to promulgate an amendatory regulation.
Section states: No child shall be adj
mitted into the public schools who shall
not have been duly vaccinated or other
wise protected against the smallpox
Nothing is said here about the board
making amendments.
Furthermore. who is to determine
whether a child is otherwise protected? ?
The law is not only obsolete, but am.
biguous.'
No Decrease in Attendance.
Although the enrolment in the public
schools has shown no DECREASE. 1t is con-
tended by the opponents of vaccination
that hundreds OF children who attended
the District institutions last year are this
year attending private schools.
Mrs. e. K. Bushee, District attendance
ofhcer. this afternoon denied the report
that r. L. Henry Of S14 18th street south
west had defied her notification that his
two children be in school Monday. II
have discovered that both children, who
were suspended from the Bradley School
because they were not vaccinated, are
under the age prescribed for compulsory
education" said Mrs. Bushee ''One of
the children is six years old and the other
is seven"
The truant officer says no other cases
of non-attendance because Of antipathy
to vaccination have been reported, but
She expects to receive ltxt Of names for
Investigation early next week from the
supervising principals Of the various
school districts.

Old Times at the Capital.

In recalling the lively and pictur-
esque incidents which the old timers
enjoyed in Washington one is moved
almost to tears over the commonplace
nature of his own times. John Adams
used to battle in the Potomac every
morning at daylight because he had
no bathtub in the White House. and
no one ever pulled a kodak on him.
President Taylor used to walk about
the town and stop and chat with ev-
cry n he met, like a policeman. A
reception in the White House in these
days is relieved of monotony only by
the great crush of guests, who trample
the clothes off one another's backs.
Another president set up in the east
room a 600 pound cheese and invited
the multitude to come in and help
itself, which the multitude proceeded
to do.

Major Pond and Bill Nye.

More than one successful lecture star
had to thank Major Pond for his start,
He had keen discrimination and not
infrequently sought out and dragged
upon the lecture platform an obscure
genius who eve thought to see him
self before the f%ootlights. Such a
genius was Bill Nye. When the major
found him he was acting as postmas-
ter and editing the Laramie Boom
erang over a livery stable. C'Walk

Pond persuaded him to try lecturing,
and as there proved to be both money
and useful publicity in it Nye was
grateful and used for years to remem.
Der the major with characteristic
notes. n of which had the following
exhaustive signature:
Yours with a heart full OF gratitude and

ARTISTIC JAPAN.
Rules Of Harmony Prevail In Even the
Humblest Homes.

aSitSS
By far the greatest charm of Japan
and her people lies not only in the
fact that the artists know the secret
of the most wonderful carvings, cast
ings, wood and metal work, silken
brocades and tapestries, exquisite cloi-
sonnes and porcelains, things for the
fortunate few. but also in the further
and more important fact that the
daily life of the poor is surrounded,
~permeated, interfused by taste and re-
hnement. Even the workmen in their
gardens and homes are daily using
tasteful domestic implements which
are the outgrowth of the thought and
needs of the people.
The designs and proportions of the
humblest houses, exteriors and int
riors, are settled for all time by GER
tain rules Of harmony; the dress of the
peasant is not left to possible hideous
individual caprice, but follows estab-
lished canons of color, cut and usage;
the garden, however small, the fence
or paling that walls it in, the roof
over the well, over the gate. the great

bucket in which water is fetched and
the bamboo dipper from which it is

the tea service-all these and a thou
sand more details Of daily life are ar
ranged according to a pattern which
may be very old, but which, as a re-
suit, adds |immeasurably to the salts
faction Of life.
And yet Japanese craftsmen, while
holding hard by tradition. have not
failed to add to their work the subtle
touch of personality. In the motifs of
their delicately im~pressionistic and
symbolical designs is constantly seen
their reverence for the early masters,
and as constantly is perceived the in
dividual variation which prevents each
piece of work from having a dupli-

Some excitement was occasioned
Tuesday by a case of assault and
battery which occurred on Main
street in front of Fred Rohrabach-
er's residence. 1t appears hal
Rohrabacher, who operates an u

building, had neglected to provide
a meter as required by the electric
light company, and Mr.. Hoch, one
OF the employees at the light plant,
acting under the instruction of
supt. Cameron, cut the wires lead
ing to the garage Monday evening.
This resulted in some bitter feel
ings, and as Mr.. Hoch was passing
by Rohrabacher's house Tuesday
noon the latter assaulted him and
before help arrived to separate
them Hoch was severely bruised
about the head and was nearly I'M
conscious. He was carried to the

He has since been unable to leave
