FAGAN TALKS TO BOYS XOOBLES" WILL EXTERTAIX OKEGOXIAX YOUNGSTERS. Grand Theater to Be Rendezvous of "Newsies" of Portland for Present AVeek. SAYINGS OF "KOODUES" FAGAN. Be polite to a customer. Never "short change" a customer. Selling papers is &a much a busi ness as running a department store. The boy who quits selling too soon In the. evening never "makes good." The one who stays out and catche V II f the stragglers Is the one who Snakes the most money In the long run. At :30 Is ptenty of time to quit hustling. Many a boy has sent himself through college by money made from selling papers after school hours. The ladder of success has no rungs made of cigarettes. Education is the foundation of every nation. Don't miss one school lesson. Don't smoke tobacco. Don't drink liquor. Don't chew tobacco. Keep your hands clean. Keep your character clean. This Is the advice that "NnortW Fagan, the famous newsboy who is appearing at the Grand Theater this week in a clean-cut vaudeville act, gives the boys. He sings Ted Snyder's big- song hits, and his impromptu song is the best heard here this Those few epigrams mean a whole lot to a boy. If he follows that advice he won't - go wrong. "Noodles" says the right time to make a man is when he is a boy, and that is right. When a boy enters school, whether he is rich or poor, he has an equal chance to secure an education. If he doesn't take advantage of the excellent school teacher, that's his fault. "Noodles" opened his engagement Monday night at the Grand Theater, being greeted by large audiences each night. "Noodles" made a big hit with the crowd with his neat makeup, which was without a doubt the best ever pre sented in Portland. His rapid-fire com edy kept the crowd in a scream all the time he was on the stage. The act In all was of the highest vaudeville tvrje. Thursday night The Oregonian boys will be entertained at the Grand at the second performance by The Oresronlan. and after they have been entertained by seeing the show they will occupy special seats set aside fer them. The audience will be invited to remain to see the fun. They will be invited upon the stage to take part in the perform ance. A newsboy carnival, marathon race. Bill Taft wabble bug and rapid fire contest will be held. It will take some time. Every one in Portland should be there to see the fun. It will be a regular newsboys' carnival, such as was held recently at Madison Square Garden in New Tork. The perform ance at the Grand will be preceded by a newsDOys parade. Saturday morning- at the Grand 'Noodles" will lecture on Travelogues of the world, and the public in gen eral will be admitted by coupon, which may be cut from the papers any day this week. The lecture will be illus trated by moving pictures and "Nood les" will give in his characteristic manner some of his experiences in for eign parts. Tickets -for "Noodles' Fagan's lec ture on life in the slums in New York can be had free by calling at the cir culation office of The Oregonian. Some of the countries "Noodles" has visited are: Japan, Italy, India, Can ada, England, Nova Scotia. South Amer ica, Yucatan, Mexico, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Germany, Holland, Belgium, France, Spain, China, Jamaica, Mar tinique, Porto Rico, Cuba and the Phil ippines.

SLAYER IS FREED Louis Blanchette Found Not Guilty of Murder. SELF-DEFENSE PLEA WINS After Deliberating Iess Than 30 Minutes Jury Brings in Verdict in Case of Death of Caesar Bourgeois by Countryman. After dellberatinu less than 30 minutes, the Jury having under consideration the fate of Louis Blanchette. a Frenchman, charged with killing Caesar Bourgeois, a countryman, on the night of January 1 last, in the Monte Carlo saloon. Fourth and Couch streets, found the defendant not guilty. That Bourgeois met death at the hands of Blanchette was admitted by the de fense. Slf-defense was set up as a rea son for the killing and on this contention the not-guilty verdict was rendered. The case was tried before Circuit Judge Gatens and with the selection of the Jury consumed two whole days, the final argu ments being concluded at 4 o'clock. Judge Gatens gave a full Instruction to the jury in the case and at 4:30 o'clock it was given Into their hands. At 6 o'clock the verdict of not guilty was returned. Blanchette is 55 years old and is pro prietor of the Monte Carlo saloon. He has lived in Portland several years and bore a good reputation in that section of the city as to honesty and peaceful disposition. Owing to a natural deformity. his mouth has an unnatural shape and a remark about it, slurringly made by Bourgeois, is said to have been one of the causes of trouble between the two men. Half a dozen Frenchmen, who knew of the circumstances of the killing, were witnesses for the defense. All testified that Bourgeois had made threats against the life of Blanchette. About 9 o'clock on the evening of Jan uary 1, Bourgeois came into the saloon with a knife. A quarrel ensued and Bourgeois made a leap at Blanchette. The latter then pulled a revolver and fired one shot, the bullet entering his breast and resulting 'in his bleeding to death while being ; taken to the hospital in an ambulance. Henry E. McGinn and Charles Petrain represented Blanchette, each making strong pleas for the maintenance of -the right of self-defense. The state was rep resented by Assistant District Attorneys vreeiana ana page. JCBY IS MIXED IX VERDICT Fraud Charge Not Upheld, but Re covery is Allowed. Believing- that they had found in favor of the plaintiff when in Teality ine verdict was in favor of the de fendant, a jury in Judge Gaten's dlvi sion of the Circuit Court yesterday submitted a confusing verdict. Van Peterson, of Boise, Idaho, had sued Edward Mitchell, of Tualatin Clackamas County, Oregon, for J330 in connection with the sale of the fur nishings of the Mitchell Hotel in Botse. The consideration was $633. Peterson asserted that Mitchell . secured bill heads of the furniture company from which, the furnishings were purchased and increased the purchase price about 30 per cent. When the sale was made to him, he said, Mitchell used the false bills as a price basis. This resulted in the suit for the recovery of 3330 Pe terson alleged that he had been de frauded. The jury's verdict gave Peterson Judgment for the $330, but exonerated Mitchell, saying that it was the be lief of the Jurors that deceit and fraud were not used in the transaction. In view of the fact that the action was based on the fraud charge and that the Jury exonerated Mitchell of thiB, but found against him for 3330. lawyers say the verdict will not stand. One similar case Is known in the state. The judgment was reversed in the Su preme Court. , ti ustavon Accused of Insanity. VANCOUVER, Wash., March 15. (Spe cial.)
