TMwIn Moore, of "Mooro Push Tin
l-'nme." who was known throughout the
Vnltci! States ns tho man who "built n big
business on a llttlo thing," died nt 10:30
o'clock today nt his home, 2225 West Ve
nango street, following nn Illness of flvo
weeks. Heart dlsenre, superinduced by tho
Kill), caused death.
Mr. Mooro wns one of those observant
opportunists described (unaptly by the Kcv.
Dr. Itussrll II. Conwell In his famous lec
ture, "Acres of Dinmonds." Ho conceived
nn Idea so simple that It seemed nbsurd
that somebody hadn't thought of It before,
nnd then he proceeded to give tho world
the benefit of his Idea through tho medium
of national advertising That Is why tho
Mooro push pin Is used today In all civ-lllzcd-lnnds.
Tho Idea of tho push pin burst upon Mr.
Mooro In 1897 whllo ho wns engaged In
tho photography buslnes. It was tho forco
of necessity thnt caused him to get tho
Idea. He was subject to much nnnoynnco
by tho need of a convenient pin or tack
with which ho could fasten his prints nnd
films to tho drying rack nftcr their long
baths In tho water tank. Ordinary pins
wero difficult to innnngo nnd bent easily.
Ordinary thumb tacks wero not con
structed for quick withdrawal.
MAKfirt ANT) SALESMAN'.
Mr. Mooro's great asset was an un
bounded confldenco In tho merit of tho
pins nnd a great faith In publicity. In
describing thnt trying period In his busi
ness career, Mr. Mooro said, sometimes bo
foro his death: "I had but $112. which
was largely used In tho purchaso of mats
rials. I mada push pins one day nnd went
out to sell them tho next, so I could get
money enough to manufacture more. I
was both manufacturer nnd salcsmnn."
Mr. Mooro's first sale was one gross for
$2. Tho next order wns for $75 worth,
nnd tho first big deal wns n salo of $1000
to tho lOastman Kodak Company.
Mr. Mooro quickly realized the advisa
bility of placing his push pin on the world
market and in 1903 hlB first national ad
vertisement appeared in tho Ladles' Homo
Journal. This was follbwed by others.
Tho experiment wsA a success, and today
tho Mooro Push-Pjn Company owns and
.occupies a large, well-equipped plant nt
Wnyno Junction which Is devoted exclu
sively to tho manufacture of "llttlo
things."
WAS 41 YRARS OLD.
Mr. Slooro was born In N'orthumberland.
Pa., 41 years ago. Ho was the son "of
tho Itev. Alexander Davis nnd Maria L.
Moore. At tho ago of 18 months ho re
moved with his parents to Bethlehem,
Pa., where lie attended the public schools.
Later ho removed to. Moore, Pa., where
his father was pastor of the Presbyterian
Church. Mr. Mooro ther. entered Prince
ton University, nnd, after working his
way through the Institution, was grad
uated with tho degree of civil engineer.
Mr. Mooro was a member of the Beth
lehem Presbyterian Church, at Broad and
Diamond streets, of which his father was
nsslstant pastor for a numbor of years.
Ho taught n young women's Bible class
In the church for a number of years, and
was also chairman of tho Muslo Com
mittee. He was an elder of tho church
and a member of Olivet Lodge, Free and
Accepted Masons.
Mr. Moore Is survived. by his widow,
who was Miss Laura Stiles Moore, and
two sons. Alexander Davis and Mills
Moore. He also leaves his mother, Mrs.
Maria Moore, and two sisters and two
brothers Miss Louise V. Mooro, a teajher

search, nrcoidlng to Civil Service Commis
sioner William Kroldcr, who takes credit
for tho appointment. The young relative
of tho Mayor, who will hae chargo of
nil Investigation work on applicants for
city places from today on, wns not known
ns a member of tho Smith fnmlly when
ho wag picked for the new plncc, accord
ing to Commissioner Krcldcr.
MAYOU SMITH SUIU'IltSHn.
When nsked to explain why such nn
Important placo was created for the youth,
who, being In tho noncompetitive class,
does not have to undergo the usual tests,
Commissioner Krcldcr told this story: "I
know of young Itobertson nnd thought
ho would bo a good chnp for tho plnco.
He Is a quiet young man who knows how
to go about without maistng much nolso,
and ho nppearcd to bo Just tho man wo
needed. I explained to tho Mayor long
ago that wo should havo a new Investi
gator, nnd he agreed. Tho new position
wns then Included among tho chnnges In
tho new appropriation bill. Later wo put
Itobertson to work nnd ho soon gave a
good account of himself.
"(ine day I told Mayor Smith that I
had found n young man for the new
place and ndded that his name was nob
orison. The Mayor nsked mo his first
name and I told him I could not remember
It nt the time Ho then asked ine where
ho lived nnd ns 1 had no data with mo
I could not answer that question. Mnyoi
Smith then turned to mo and snld, 'Wbj
Itobertson may bo my son-in-law,' nnd
when we looked the matter up this turned
out to bo the fnct. Itobertson has been
working with us for a month nnd has been
paid from tho money for special examin
ers. Today ho takes his place under the
now ordinance. Ho hns been assigned
to Investigate many cases nnd has dis
covered perjury In some cases and has
madu thorough reports on other appli
cants that havo turned out to bo right
In every particular. Wo cannot bo attacked
for the appointment of Itobertson ns no
better man for the placo could bo found."
Police Court Chronicles
Chnrles Grand believes his nnmo Is
Justified on account of his general atti
tude. Ho Is ambitious nnd has a vivid
Imagination, which hns brought him much
woe.
Sometimes Grand thinks ho Is wenlthy.
Then he puts on n high hat and strolls
about behind n 5-ccnt cigar. Ho talks
flippantly ' nf tho stock market and his
car. and his flow of easy English fre
quently brings him in contact with many
drlnkB without nny personal Investment.
Charles Is nn expert in tho collection of
such dividends.
But, unfortunately, ho generally meets
with too much success in this connection
and becomes combative. Grand was In an
antagonistic mood when ho met nn orderly
of tho Episcopal Hospital. Ho made a tow
annoying remarks and then attempted to
clean up Lehigh nvenue, using the
orderly as a broom. Both men went to tho
sidewalk and then to tho street. Polico
inan Gray happened nlong and separated
the men after considerable trouble.
Grand was very much peeved. He de
nounced the cop for daring to annoy him
nnd declared that he had enough political
pull to get tho bluecoat fired.
This made the orderly laugh. "Don't bo
afraid," he told the cop. "This fellow
hasn't got any more pull than I have.
Ho used to be an orderly, too."
Whllo they were talking nn Inquisitive
Chinaman who was passing down c ie
street stopped to listen to the argument.
Grand told him to move nlong. The
Chinaman grinned at htm. Llko a flash
Grand grabbed his queue and swung him
in a circle.
But the cop e'hded the Chinese revolu
tlon by landing a straight right on Grand's
Jaw. Then Ire took him before Magistrate
Glenn, at the 4 th and York streets station.
Ths prisoner began to feel a little more
seriour, and admitted that he was for
merly an orderly, as charged.
"You are the most disorderly orderly I
ever had before me," said tho Judge, "and
I'm going to allow you to be a free patient
at the county prison."

EDUCATOR FOR THE SEX,
SAYS LILLIAN RUSSELL
"Their Faith in It Is Beautiful
nnd It Solves So Many
Problems of the
Household"
'NOT FROTHY OR USELESS'
"Men hntc to be reminded that women
nro 'getting on' ns much ns 1 do that I
nm 'getting on.' "
Lillian Russell raised herself onto n
white enamel hlglf-chalr In front of her
mako-up shelf In tho seclusion of the
grcen-nnd-whlto dressing room, with n
star on tho door, at Keith's. Charming
Lillian wns In high good humor. Sho had
Just returned from her act nnd tho np
plauso thnt still sounded faintly seemed
to follow right to her door.
"I'M A SUFFRAGIST "
"Men nro afraid we'll get to know too
much. I'm a suffragist, you see." said the
vivacious Miss Russell The visitor for
got his embarrnsment nt tho great heapt
of distinctly feminine apparel hung on
every possible peg nbout tho room, nnd
sal down.
'Tho woman's page of a newspaper Is
tho greatest single educator of woman
kind thnt r ran think of," continued Miss
Russell, ntmost wrinkling her perfect
brows. "Hut It could be mndo n lot
greater If It weren't for foolish men
editors. They want too much about fall
ing hair and not so much serious 'stuff '
Every woman rends the womnn's page,
but she doesn't nlunys road the editorial
page. Muffin recipes, new methods for
curling hair and poems on spring, all havo
their place, but my Idea would bo to In
ject a short discussion into the pago every
day of some public matter of Interest to
women or a paragraph from the life of
sonic famous woman. Women havo little

"Aren't you beginning to llko newspaper
work better than tho stage?" tho visitor
asked suspiciously.
Tho beautiful Lillian laughed. "The
stage Is nn old story. Soino day t nm
going to be ii newspaper woman It Is
fascinating, and It's so educating I
think I II write a bunk nbout my experi

page Is beautiful, and that Is why tin
women editors go to no end of troublo
to give correct answers to queries and
never advise hastily. The woman's page
to a young girl Is Just like a mother. Ono
careless thought In tho pago might ruin
somo pretty and trusting creature's whole
life. Besides rending ndvlco In ethics,
sho can keep nbrenst of tho times nnd

of hints that sho can apply every day.
I do not think tho subject matter Is nt
all frothy or useless "
Tho former comlo opera star dimpled
ngnln. "I Ret nbout 200 letters a week,"
sho said." "Ono girl wanted to know how
to Illuminate pimples, t suppose sho want
ed to know how to cllmlnato them. A
man wanted mo to send him $48, so ho
could go on n vacation He said If t
would send him $10 extra ho could get hli

'How can I be a great nctress like you?'"
"Do you think mere mnli would lm

Capturing the Appam, running the gauntlet
of the British Navy and bringing the ship
into a neutral port under a prize crew was
an exploit no more thrilling than the feat
performed by Capt Murphy and Chief
Reardon of Gappy Ricks' ship Narcissus.
In this four-part story in the famous Cappy
Ricks Series, foreign secret service agents
capture an American ship and all but accom
plish their plan to turn her cargo of steam
coal over to the German fleet.
A rattling deep-water sea story of timely
war-time interest.
