NEW YORK FIRMS GAVE TEN MILLIONS
Annual Bonuses in Financial District Handed Out as Usual-AIarming ln-
 crease in Deaths from Heart Disease.

New York. Dec. 27.-(SpeciaI Core spondence of The Republican.-The anxiety that has prevailed among the clerks in the offices of big corpora tions. brokerage firms and banks in the downtown district was relieved this week when the annual distribu- tion of the yearly bonuses occurred. As a rule in these offices the clerks. and even the heads of departments, re- ceive small salaries but these are brought up to a very attractive figure by cash distributions made at the end of the year. One prosperous firm of private bankers for several years has distributed New Year gifts of 100 per per cent to all it's clerks so that an employe whose salary was nlmi1ally $500 really received 5000 ,a year. It was feared. on account of the October panic and the tightness of the money market which still prevails. that this largess would be entirely cut off or greatly reduced this year. When the end of December arrived and the usual bonuses were handed out in practically all of the offices, there was conse- quently great relief among the worried

selves in Tempe bright and early
 They learned that the officers of the southside town, in order to prevent a safe robbing incident there. had run all the hOboes to the north side of the river the night before. where they made camp for the night. Going to the bridge they found the Wilies were just breaking camp and crossing to the south side again. There were seven in the bunch and as they reached the south end of the bridge they were all searched. The marshal recognized his old friend Morley among them and he was in q plethoric state for a hobo. having S4 in one pocket and t5.5O in another. All had money, the most pow erty stricken wretch possessing 75 cents. Doubtless all had been re- couped at the expense of the various safe owners in this section. but it is mo crime in this country 70 have money. and that was the only charge that could be placed against these men.
 In the meantime Deputy Sheriff Da- wis had spotted Pete Sullivan. a hobo " NHb hoh itAN utSudN HlOTH- ing After the laundry job. He was coming from Tempe and after being questioned. started back. saving he wanted to go and get his breakfast Mir Davis told him he need not mind. as he could get breakfast in Phoenix, and thereupon put him under arrest This was done for the reason that the officers knew Sullivan was the man who had taken the two revolvers on Tuesday morning from the place where they had been left by Mickey, the lat ter taking the evening train to Mesa City, where the job had probably been planned already.
 That is the story to date, and wheth- CT any more evidence will be uncovered to fasten the crime more definitely up- on them. will take little time to de- termine.

Why Lost
 My Job.
Reasons Why Thousands Like Me Cannot Satisfy Their Employers.

T believe my fate is not unlike that of thousands of other workers who daily lose their places for reasons they do not know, and probably Cwould not believe. When their last pay envel- oDe comes along, it is usually Your services no longer required" If the truth were known. the reason for their uncermonious removal would probably be that their usefulness was destroyed because of some mental worry. bodily ailment or general indisppsition. These things. as we all know. are the most fruitful causes of failure in all walks of life. The battle of Waterloo was lost because of a headache. In this quick age our minds must be clear rapid, active and free from outside in- fluence, or worry. or else we go down to failure with the throng of "floaters" who go from one place of employment tO another, giving no satisfaction to others or to themselves. constantly growing older and less useful, with no ambition, no will power and no hope.
 Every man reqnres from every oth- CT man the best that is in him. But
 no man can use or get the best that is in himself until he is first free from all fretfBl indispositions and worries
 That was my trouble. I was full of troubles. That's why l lost my job My stomach in the first place was aI- ways out of order. and was worrying about it and my mind grew cloudy. and slow. I made mistakes. and grew grouchy. That was the end.
 There are thousands like me. going  peptic manners. and repulsive atmos- pheres. No employer wants such mems service.
 Take my advice. A healthy stomach is half the battle. for it keeps your mind clear, and your face rosy. I have healthy stomach now and hold a good position. and my employer is satisfied and so am I.
 l started to take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets which I was told were good for the worst cases of indigestion and dyspepsia. The first two tablets made a wonderful difference in my condi- tion.

Every once in a while New Workers
 alarmed at the ever-increasing cost Of living. rise up in rebellion against one or another monopoly in foodstuffs
 Now it is the beef trust that is the object of an attack in which the in dependent butchers of the city are leading the way. Several years ago these independent dealers organized themselves into an association known as the New York Butchers Dressed Meat company. Now they have awak- ened to the fact that. apparently the big packers of the trust have secured control of this concern and that if this control is not broken. the trust will have absolute control of the meat sit nation in New York. To find out whether this is the case they have be- gun suit through the minority stock holders to compel the president of the
