Why Is It? and the Answer

The question has been asked all over: Why is it the Big Place has taken the lead and is forging further and further ahead. The answer, although long one, will be answered as follows: The Big Place at the present time gives their patrons more for the money than any other place. Anheuser beer on draught, served with merchants lunch. This is the first time that Eastern beer has been on draught in Alaska, and the lunch can't be duplicated any where. The Big Place is most complete in it's line of amuse- ments, cigars and bar accommo- dations. It is always boosting for Valdez, and through doing so is helping itself. Everyone who is a resident of. Valdez realizes that even so it's helping their home and Valdez is now forging to the front and leaving other places be- hind.
 The American Press service installed in the Big Place every day has treated quite few sub scribcrs, who come in and look at the pictures of notable events re- produced by photograph. The Big Place was first and still is the only one trying to make business conditions look better by putting on 8-hOur shifts. Everybody is welcome to make it their head quarters and lounging place and the public is heartily welcome to do likewise, with no restrictions don't have to spend your money if you don't want to. All we ask is your presence--that alone makes us alive. Deliver the goods to the Valdez people and they will be your patrons and boost for them and they will boost for you.
 The American Press service for today: Hoosac tunnel block aded by railroad collision, Roose- welt and the head of hls commit tee, section of big Chinese city Iuined by fire. Come OF in, the waters fine.
 Champagne Cocktail. If your down-heartedness,' does
 not abate, Call at the Big Place, and exhil-
 iarate. We'll liven you up--we never fail Try our live one--a champagne
 cocktail.

FOR UNIFORM RULE
REGULATION of Dental Examina-

ANNUAL CONVENTION HELD
President Of Association Discusses
the Standards.
VARIANCE IN REQUIREMENTS
Opening Session Of Dentists organi-
zation at the New Willard
This Morning.
ANNUAL CONVENTION HELD
VARIANCE IN REQUIREMENTS

Uniformity Of examinations for dental
students throughout the country is urged
by the National Association OF Dental
Examiners now in session at the New
Willard. Nearly fifty delegates from
various states were In attendance at the
opening session Of the association this
morning. when DR.. T. e. Turner Of st.
Louis, Mo-. president Of the body, called
1t to order.
DR.. Turner in his address dwelt par
ticularly on the question Of uniformity
Of examinations. He declared that the
standard in dental education has greatly
increased, and that the national associa-
tion over which he presides Is responsible
in a great degree for it, although he
gave the colleges throughout the country
much OF the credit.
No Radical Change Expected.
'It is not probable that there will be
any increase in the four-year high school
preliminary education for entrance to
dental colleges in the near future" he
said. NOR that any radical change in the
professional examiners will be made very
soon. II SO. 1t should be the policy OF
this association to have the four-yeaI
high school requirements made more ef-
fective and uniform"
He said that the report OF the commit
tee on Uniformity Of examinations showed
that no two state boards have uniform
examinations, either In the subjects, op-
erative and prosthetic requirements. OF
grading, the passing grade varying from
33 1-3 to 80 per cent, while the character
Of questions showed the greatest varia-
| ton.
I'm some states the examinations are
rigid and exhaustive, while in others q
freshman student can usually pass" said
the speaker. 'In view of these condi-
tions, is it not evident that the tabula-
ton even as now conducted Is not on q
rational basis; that shifting about OF
applicants and boards would give diff
ferent results and that the only remedy
is uniform universal examination?"
Canada Solves Problem.
He declared that the question of reci-
procity and a universal uniform exam
ination has been solved In Canada by the
organization of the Dominion Dental
Council. The speaker also recommended
| that the various state boards adopt a
rule requiring the filing Of the questions
of the preliminary examiners together
| with the answers OF the applicants with
the board.
The convention will oe in session

More Kicks Received Now.

"One would naturally suppose that a big
convention. or a large gathering in the
city. like the recent ceremonies at the
unveiling Of the Columbus statue. would
make q large temporary increase in the
amount Of baggage we handle. but 1t is
hardly noticeable here. The only way ]
can account for 1t Is that most of the out
of-town people are here for few days
only. and large percentage Of their
baggage is hand baggage.
Just now. when we are in the midst OF
our busiest season, We get more kicks
than at any other time. Every one
wants his baggage right on the dot
and objects to the slightest delay. In a
big business like this there are bound tC
be some small delays In the delivery OF
baggage. but the percentage Of such de-
lays is not greater now than at any
other time. In fact, / believe 1t Is less
but the people whose baggage 1t is are
not the real travelling public and dc
not understand the difficulties we are
working under. II they did don't believe
we would have half as many people come
In to make complaints.
AFTER this rush Is over things will re-
main normal until about Easter. We
then have an increase in the baggage
handled. due to the return Of those who
have spent the winter In the south. OF
course, 1t is nothing like the presen,
rush season. but 1t can be noticed. II
a. many people suddenly decided to leave
the city as are now coming In we would
think we were really up against it
can think OF nothing that would cause
such . general exodus. and I sincerely
hope nothing will ever happen to cause
It What work we arc doing now would
seem like child's play beside what we
would have on our hands then"

NEW YORK, September 6-Pending a
decision from the district attorneys office

ther investigation into the death OF Mrs.

was drowned in Greenwood lake. that
county, while In company with Burton

At an inquest at the time of the death
a verdict of accidental drowning was re-
turned. One OF the chief questions II
be cleared up Is whether or not Mrs.
Petronella Menschnick. mother OF tbs
victim, and beneficiary under the Will
is alive. Mr.. Gibson contends that shs
is alive In this country, and he has pro-
duced what purp ports to be waiver OF
citation signed by her. placing him In
control of her daughters estate. In ths
affidavit submitted to the surrogate, ths
Austro- Hungarian consulate alleges that
Mrs Menschnick died In 1910, and that

Gibson says that he can explain every
thing and answer all charges at the

TRAVELLING PUBLIC GREATER
Transfer Company Finds More Busi-
ness This Year Than Same
Time Last Season.

Baggage clerks checking clerks, the
employees Of the transfer company who
distribute baggage in the cityAn fact,
every one at the Union station directly
or remotely connected with handling
baggage Of Washingtonians who are re-
turning from summer resorts-have been
worked night and day for the past week.
The usual run Of between 1900 and $500
pieces Of baggage day took a big up
ward Jump toward the end Of last week
and now about twice that amount goes
through the offices at the Union station
daily.
OF course, preparation had been made
for handling the abnormal amount of
baggage. but 1t is greater this year than
use five or six extra express wagons to
distribute 1t, and two motor trucks have
been pressed into service. Usually about
twenty wagons are used by the transfer
company. and there Is never any need OF
moro except at this time Of year. The
transfer company's force has been aug
mented temporarily to cope with the OK
ira business, which will keep up for
more than a month.
W. ]. F1ttall, general baggage agent Of
tho Washington Terminal Company. is
at the head Of the organization at the
Union station. Ordinarily he has about
160 men engaged in actually handling
the baggage and mail, but ne said yester-
day that 1t had been necessary to sub
stantially increase this force. 1T looks
now as II we would handle more bag
gage this month than during the CORES
ponding month last year. although 1t is
rather early in the month to make q
guess at It, During the past month we
handled $500 more pieces Of baggage
than during August a year ago, and the
present rate indicates q big increase this
September over the same month last
year.
Evening star., 1912-09-06
Rush Started Last Thursday.

THE rush started last Thursday, and
since that time we have had about twice
the normal amount to handle. There was
a slight lull yesterday and today. but
things will start again at the end Of the
week. It will run along that way until
the middle Of October, with a slight lull
In the middle Of each week.
''It Is due. of course. to the return OF
people who have spent the summer away
from home. They straggle out of the
city during the spring and early summer,
but the greater portion of them will come
back this month. Almost every one will
have at least one trunk. and some will
have several. It is great blessing that
1t Is all inbound baggage instead Of out
bound. The outbound is much harder to
handle, as It has to go through SO many
hands.
THE present run OF baggage will be in
creased even more about the middle OF
this month. So many people go away on
the LIST of September on their vacations
and return after a two-week stay. Soon
after that the schools start, and the total
is swelled still more 1t probably would
know just how much baggage the schools
of this city send through this office. 1t
Is true Of any city, but there are an un-
usually large number Of schools and COL
leges here.
Another thing that tends to Increase
the amount handled at this season is the
beginning Of the theatrical season. Satur-
day night and Sunday morning the troupes
arrived with their many trunks. scenery
and other forms Of baggage. Sometimes
1t is necessary to have two baggage cars
on the train for their convenience The
free use OF q car for their scenery is al
lowed them II they have twenty-five or
more In the company. When there are
twenty-five or three in the company they
often find II cheaper to buy two or three
extra tickets in order to get the car. 9th
erwise they would have to pay 16 cents a
mile for using II.
