In Howard Elliott, president of the

astic booster. In a letter to the Port
land Chamber of Commerce, received
yesterday, Mr. Elliott tells of having re
cently addressed the students of Harvard
and pointed c-it to them the wonderful
possibilities of Oregon. "There are a
great many young men there," wrote Mr.
Elliott, "who are looking all over the
United States for places to begin their
life work, and told them they should
think seriously of Oregon."
The purpose of the letter was to ac
knowledge receipt to each Chamber of a
letter- from the president of the Asso
ciated Chambers of Commerce on the
Pacific Coast, thanking, the Northern Pa
cific for courtesies extended on the oc
casion of the recent tour of the United
States by the honorary commercial com
missioners of Jajian
"1 took a great deal of interest In this
movement." said Mr. Elliott, in his letter,
"believing the general effect in the United
States, and particularly In the Pacific
Northwest, would be good. It seems to
me that the trip will have a good effect
in making the country east of the Alle
gheny Mountains understand the great
growth and energy of the country west
of the Bitter Root Mountains.

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 most money In the long run. At

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.

ture on life in the slums in New York

culation office of The Oregonian.

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

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. ,
