 Human Fly.
 Fred Sutherland, known the world over as the Human Fly" has been in Winslow and vicinity for the past three weeks doing some work for the Santa Fe under the direction of V. s. Proctor, in the way of painting smokestacks, tanks and other such things that require a man of nerve who is not afraid to mingle with the clouds standing or sitting on practi- cally nothing. MT Sutherland has been on top of the highest buildings flag poles, smoke-stacks, church steeples and other high structures in all parts of the world, always ac- complaining his work within a short CT time than any of his competitors in his line of endeavor In climbing church steeples and flag poles Suth- erland does not use any Scaffolding or rigging such as is used by other 'steeple- jacks" but ascends by the means of suction pads which he wears on his hands and feet. These pads are contrivance gotten up by Sutherland himself. the secret of their action being known only to him. MT. Sutherland, number of years ago, planted "Old Glory" on the Eiffel tower in Paris. He also put up a flag pole on the Singer building and has done odd jobs of painting steeples. putting up crosses and statues and repairing the high points of some of the famous churches of the United States, as well as the old cathedrals in foreign lands. During the Span ish- American war MT. Sutherland was chief gunner's mate on the gunboat Winslow, on which Ensign Bagley was killed, being the first naval officer to meet death during that war.-Winslow Mail.
 Roosevelt Man on Serious Charge.
 Caught in the act of attempting to pass worthless $10O bill of the Mis- souri State bank type, Joe de Gulio of Roosevelt was arrested in a lower Broad street saloon in Globe. De Gulio was locked up in jail with a charge Of attempting fraud stand ing against him. According to James Bracco, one of the proprietors of the place, De Gulio entered the Fashion saloon shortly after noon and offered to pay a bill of about s25. which had been due for some time. offering the worthless bill in payment. As there was not enough money in the reg ister to give De Gulio his change, over S75, Bracco sent his brother to the bank for change. There it was discovered that the bill was worth less. De Gulio was standing at the bar when Bracco was informed by his brother that the bill was worth less. Grabbing the bill he attempted to secure possession of it. Failing in this attempt, he drew a knife but was disarmed before he could do any damage. When searched by the officers. another knife was found on De Gulio's person. De Gulio was hysterical when taken to jail and made threats to kill himself. He stated that he drew his knife with the intention of committing suicide, rather than hurt any of the men in the saloon. At the bank. where John Bracco attempted to change the bill. it was stated that the same bill had been presented twice yesterday and refused both times.-Globe Silver Belt
