SEARCH MADE HERE.
The Local Police Looking for Mrs.
Gertrude Billings.

Mrs. Gertrude Billings, the New York
saloonkeeper's wife, whose name has PLAYED
so important a part in the New York mur-
der mystery, is being searched for by the
local police. The New York authorities
have about abandoned the idea that the
parts of the body found in the city and
river are parts OF Mrs. Billings body. Her
parents Mr.. and Mrs. Robins, have given
out statements that their daughter is all
right, but her husband is anxious concern
ing her safety.
The local police were advised by circular
from Chief Of Police William S. Devery
of New York to make the inquiry concern
ing the woman. Mrs. Billings Is described
as being twenty-four years old, and about
five feet six inches tail. She has dark COM
plexion, very dark brown hair and dark
brown eyes. She has gold crown on her
right eye TOOTH and the tops of her ears
are crumped, the result of birth mark
When she left home she was dressed in
mourning and wore dark buttoned shoes
The circular gives the information that
she may be slightly demented. and says
she left home under the impression that she
could earn her own living. She had Ave or
six diamond rings on her fingers when she
was last seen One of them has q square
setting of diamonds, sapphires and gar
nets, representing an American flag. There
Is no mention Of reward made in the
circular. e
information concerning her whereabouts
is wanted by the chief of the New York po-
lice department.

have read with interest the communi-
cation signed ."r. s. H. in The Star of the
18th instant, concerning the study of
arithmetic" and beg to second the writer's
request for the powerful aid of The Star
in obtaining the restoration of that study
to the eighth grades of the public schools
To my mind 1t is great mistake to as
sumo that a thorough knowledge of arith-
metic can be acquired in the grades below
the eighth. The practical value of this
study is immensely greater than that of
any of the branches taught in the primary
grades and the scholar who finishes his
course at school without such knowledge
will never cease regretting that he was de-
prived of his rights by the scholastic pow
ers that be-" That this study is not taught
as it should be- elsewhere as well as In the
District of Columbia, is forcibly illustrated
at practically every examination for pro-
motion or position in the government SER
