 IS FINED IN COURT
Stanley Works Employe Has No
 One But Himself to Blame

Because by his own actions he for feited bonus of S5 which is paid
 monthly to all employees of department 1 51 at the Stanley Works. CarafiIi Car balno created such a disturbance at 1 the factory yesterday afternoon at o'clock that he was arrested by Oni- 1 cer Matthias Rival on q complaint pre- ferred by Frederick w. Schaefer, fore man of the department. Carbaino was arralgned before Judge John H. Kirk ham in police court this morning on charge of breach of the peace and the result was that he lost not only his $5 bonus but also was compelled to pay an additional fine of &3 and costs. MT. Scha efer explained to the court
 that CarbainO is an efficient workman but does not like to work steady and
 generally insists on taking at least
 one days vacation during the week.
 Yesterday morning at 10 o'clock he
 came to M. Scha aefer and asked that he be permitted to take the rest of the
 day off The man had been drinking and although his foreman explained that if he did not remain at work he would forfeit his bonus. he insisted on
 going out. In this department a
 bonus is paid to every employe who
 works a continuous month without
 losing any time.
 Late yesterday afternoon Carbaino
 returned to the factory and asked if his job was still waiting for him. He was told that it was, but as he was very drunk he was told that as he had lost his $5 bonus anyway he had bet ter go home and sleep and return to work today. Carbaino flew into a
 rage when informed that his bonus
 was gone and insisted that it be paid
 him. He tried to attack MT. Schaefer
 but was restrained by four other worl<men.
