What a Native OF Baltimore County
| Has Accompnshed.-AN New York newspa-
per called the Syren and Shipping, devoted to
| the following sketch of Mr.. Philip A. S.
Franklin, who was recently elected president
| of the Atlantic Transport Company and vice
president of the International Mercantile Ma
| rine Company:
"Mr. Franklin had an aim in life, and he
tive America a year later, to enter the service
| of the Atlantic Transport Line in the humble
capacity of an Office boy. His desire was to
reaster I--;----:>-Aatien sta'inH- ~sSti'a
| beginning. With the influence of his family
behind him and the prestage of the name of
| Franklin he could have chosen some sinecure
| office or high sounding position, but one year
| as an office boy in the Baltimore headquarters
| of the company suthced to bring out the tai
ents of the young man, and in 1891 he was
sent to New York, where the best material of
| the concern was required. Five years after
| saw him the New York agent, and two years
later be became the general manager of the
| line On December LIST, 1902, he was made its
| president.
This rapid advancement in such gigantic
concern as the Atlantic Transport Line in the
intricacies of the shipping industry is pro-
nounced and stupendous, audit reads volume
to every young man ambitious to rise in the
| shipping world. Mr.. Franklin is director in
the Atlantic Transport Company of West Vir-
| pinia. director in the Atlantic Transport Com
| pany, Limited, of England, and vice-president
| of the International Mercantile Marine Com
pany.
daughter of the late Hon. John Merryman, of
the famous Hayfie farm, of Maryland. John
NJ. and P. A. S., Jr., are his sons.
Zone of the youngest of the successful BUSH
ness giants in the maritime world IS Philip A.
S. Franklin, and should you ask the secret of
| his remarkable advancement in the shipping
world. the reply would be-in one word
! energy IDdefatigable energy has been the
cornerstone of this young mans most brilliant
career.
fBorn February LIST, 1871, in Baltimore
| county. Md Mr.. Franklin is already the ex-
ecutive head of one of the powerful transpor-
| tation companies of the times. He is the son
| of Col Walter S. Franklin, an estimable and
honored Marylander, and the nephew of Gen.
w. B. Franklin, S. A. He was educated in
Baltimore, where he was fitted and equipped
for a business career. Early in life he display
ed special fondness for commercial activity,
and seemed ever alert to acquire knowledge
of men and things in the business world.
"During all the busy months of the great
Paris exposition of 1899, when General Frank
| lin was the commissioner general of the expo
| sition. Mr.. Franklin performed with marked
success the arduous labors OF an important
clerkshp, which he then filled in the depart
ment of the American commissioner general.
1.-The duties often required the attention and
the services of cool, calculating and execu-
tive mind, but the young clerk proved equal to
the emergency and his work won praises from
his chief and distinguished recognition from
the department head at Washington. But this
| initial success in the irst pronounced effort OF
his life die rot throw his well balanced ambi-
tions from an even keel. Men of such equi-
poise never list to port or starboard from a
shifting ballast of we'll meant fattery."
A New Thing in Pumps.-A storage well
pump operated by weights was tested for the
| first time in Maryland at a new cottage being
erected for Mr.. Bishop at Overlea on the Bel
air road, says the Baltimore Sun The test
was very successful, and not only did the
pump furnish the first, second and third stories
with water, but by attaching hose water was
thrown to the third story, showing that the
supply could be used in case of fire.
This pump is operated in the simplest man.
ner, as was shown by the test, when the cylln-
der, which holds the supply, was filled by g.
year-old boy turning the crank. The pump
is entirely new, being an improvement over
the windmill, in that it is always ready for
use, and over the hotar engine, as there is nc
expense attached to running it.
The apparatus consists of cylinder hoidlne
from 20 gallons upward that is suspended IN
the we'll. piston attached to a rod supplied
with ratchet is engaged by gearing that is
placed on the platform over the top OF the
well. By means of turning detachable
crank the piston is raised, filling the cylinder
with water through an inlet in the bottom Of
the tank.
A weight is suspended from the gearing
which, after the cylinder is filled, produces.
pressure on the piston sufficient to force the
water through a supply pipe connected WITH
