Judging from inquiries received, tho time Is
not far distant when there may be a club

A likely name for this bunch would be the

"HOBBY" OF BOY,
ARDENTLY FOLLOWED,
MADE MAN FAMOUS
a, ., us
Career of Frederick Gute
kunst Offers an Instruct
ive Example of What
Persistence Can Accomplish.
Whon a boy has n. harmless hobby, lot
him nlone. lie may havo some definite
purpose that ho doesn't wnnt to tell you
anything nbout. It may .ippcar foolish to
you when ho comes home from school
nnd starts to litter tho yard or the cellar
with a lot of homemade contrivances.
Unfortunately this Is just tho tlmo that
mothers notlco that the grass needs cut
ting or something Is wanted nt the corner
grocery. Such Interruption has undoubt
edly cost tho world many Inventions.
Illght In our midst there Is such a boy,
although at tho present tlmo his hair Is
white. When ho was 12 years old ho was
Indentured to a lawyer. But tho dry
looking law books with their Jaw-brenk-
Ing words and complicated sentences
didn't nppoal to him, For six years ho
struggled with them, but on the q,t. ho
waa fussing around with electrical appa
ratus and various chemicals. Ho used to
get 6 cents for his lunch. Ho spent 1
cent for a cako nnd tho other B went for
chemicals. All this tlmo ho got (1 a
week. Finally tho youngster obtained a
Job at Klott & Dallam's drug store, which
was then nt 6th and Cnllowhllt streets.
HIb connection with ohcmclnls dually
aroused an lnterost in photography. It
always puzzled him how a person's fen
turcB could bo transferred to a plate. He
decided that he would fathom It on his
own account. On obtaining a position
with another drug store nt nn Increaso
In salary he laid asldo enough money to
attend tho College of Pharmacy. After
graduating from there tho photography
hobby waa In him stronger than over.
But ho had to work nt something which
would bring him a deflnlto wcek'a wages,
bo he took a fairly good Job in n Market
street drug store. At night and during
his sparo tlmo ho experimented In pho
tography, nnd, with the ntd of his father,
finally constructed a cmdo camera. On
tho following day ho met a man who had
n lens, n raro thing In those days, and
gavo tho last ?5 he had In tho world for It.
Ho made hit) own plates by coating them
with collodion and was finally ablo to
tako pictures of his friends in tho rear
of tho Market street store.
The boy's brother Louis, who was an
observant chap, told him ono day that
his pictures wero as good as any In the
city. Tho youthful photographer won
greatly encouraged, but did not shore his
brother's enthusiasm. A few nights later,
whllo walking down Arch Btrcct, by the
merest chance, the youth saw that thcro
wits a storo for rent nt No. 706. Ho men
tioned tho matter casually to his brother
anil was nntazctt a few days later to
hear thnt tho energetic Louis hnd leased
the plnco for him.
So In a day or two Frederick Gtite
kunat stnrted In business as a photog
rapherand ho has been at It ever since.
Ho Is now SI years young and works hard
to keep himself youthful. It Is Just C'J
years slrtco ho moved from 700 to 712
Arch, hla present headquarters.
The walls of his establishment aid In
telling tho nation's progress, for they are
adorned with tho photographs of Presi
dents, Governors, Mayors, statesmen,
actors and prominent men of letters
whoso fame Is world-wide.
Somo camo from distant points to be
photographed; others were "tnken" whllo
horo on Important missions. President
Grant, Edwin Booth nnd Kdwln Forrest
have sat In tho same chair In the Gute
kunst studio.
So don't discourage hobbles.

JITNEY DRIVERS SEEK
TO CHECK "ZONE" LAW
BY INJUNCTION ROUTE
Want Court Order Prevent
ing Enforcement of New
Ordinance: "Jitneys for .
Me," Is Slogan of 100,00(7
Flags.
The fight of Jitney men against th
regulating ordinance, which, they de
clared, would sweep them from th
street, will be carried to the courts to- if
uay.
Simultaneously "Jitney Flag Week" be
gins today, nnd 100.000 little ensigns bear
ing tho slogan, "Jltheys For Me," will be 3
given to the populace in return for con
tributions to the genernl defense fund of
the Jitney operators against tho drastlo
mandates of Councils.
Common Pleas Court No. t Is to reccdva
tho appeal of Jltneymen for the Issuance
of a temporary Injunction to restrain tho
Department of Public Safety from enforc
ing the features of the new law that for
bid tho Jitneys from charging more than
i cents for conveying a pnssenger to
League Island, to Olney avenue, or to 3d
nnd Diamonds street from tho City Hall,
'rom the Delaware niver to the count
along Market street.
Tho three orgnnltatlons of Jltneymen
will send delegations today to the head
quarters of the Jitney Auto Service Com
pany, 138 North Brood street, to formu
Into united plans for the battle In the
courts.
According to tho officers of the Jitney
Association, thcro Is nlready a fund of
1800 for financing the legal campaign.
Mimeographed tcttere have been sent to
every known Jitney operator In the tlty
asking for a contribution of 1. The sale
of Jitney flags to tho general public will
swell tho fund.
If tho Injunction should be refused
several plans of action are likely to be
adopted by the drivers. Operators assert
they will flatly disregard the sono rule
of tho ordinance Violations will result in
arrests nnd test cases In the courts
will decide tho status of tho present
Jitney uproar.
Tho Jitney Auto Service Company is
preparing to Incorporate under tho laws
governing tnxlcab companies and con
tinue operations. It will present its
claims before tho Stato Public Service
Commission.
Next Monday will bring matters in the
Jitney world to a climax If tho temporary
injunction Is refused, for then tho ordi
nance goes Into effect Meanwhile the
popularity of Jitneys apparently Increases.
Demands upon the Jitneys last night bv
returning excursionists from the Fourth ,2
ot juiy nouuay was almost overwhelming.
Ominous political muttering aro reach
ing the ears of Republican Organization
Councllmen who voted virtually In a body
for the bill, declared to be conflseaitory
nnd unreasonable. Jltneymen threaten to
mnko a political issuo of tho Jitney bill,
and assert they will oppose the re-election
to Councils of every man who voted
for the measure. Some of the Council
men havo confided 'to friends that they
werp personally opposed to the drastic
bhl, but that orders from the political
bosses were that tho bill should be put
through.
