WHO HAS THEM?

While the Eagle office was being
moved, some person removed from
our office desk one hand 5-wheel
numbering machine, two 5-wheel Wet
ter numbering heads, one of which
was No. 1928. These machines were
taken from our desk without our
knowledge or consent, and some body
has them. We need these machines,
and are willing to pay a reasonable
reward for them or information
which may lead to their recovery. If
you know anything about them, come
and tell US, or write us.
The hand numbering machine can
be used by any bank or business
house having numbering to be done.
The Wetter numbering heads cannot
be used by anyone except a printer.
They may have been sold to some
printing office, or some child may
have them.
Keep a lookout for the machines,
and if they are. offered for sale, do
not buy them, but take them and
notify us and get reward.

HUNDRED Moroccan
JOIN new CITY CLUB

Nearly 100 persons soon will be
added to the active membership of
the City Club, owing to the expected
reclassification of many of the pre-
sent members as perpetual mem
bers" Within the next few weeks
many persons who have been desirous
of joining the club but who have
been barred because of the limited
membership will have an opportunity
to enroll
The membership limit of 1.500 still
will be adhered to rigidly, and j. A.
Whitfield, president of the club, has
hinted that persons hoping to join
will be compelled to act quickly.
Applications should be addressed to
the clubhouse, on Farragut Square.
The club will soon begin the en-
,roIment of 100 perpetual members.
Persons taking out these member
ships, whi1n will cost $1,000, will be
entitled to club privileges, without
further payment, for the remainder
of their life; and upon their death
they may pass tn emembership along
with its privileges, to their heirs.
Most Of the 100 perpetual members
will be recruited from the active
membership, and II is this reclassifica-
ton which will give the chance for
additions to the regular membership.
Applications for perpetual member
ship will be acted upon in the order
in which they are flied, Mr.. Whitfield
has announced.

WIFE TO SUE BOTH
Stokes AND SON
Charges Millionaire With Con-
spiracy In His Divorce
Action.

DENVER, Colo, Oct. 20.-A suit
charging conspiracy against her hus-
band, w. e. d. Stokes, and his son
will be filed by Mrs. Helen Elwood
Stokes, according to an announce
ment she made here today. Mrs.
Stokes declared that she had SO In
structed Myles A. Walsh, of Littleton
& Lindsay, of New York.
Mrs. Stokes action follows that of
her millionaire husband, who in an
action for divorce names his SON, w.
E. d. Stokes. jr., as one OF the three
correspondents. In addition, Mrs.
Stokes said she has already started
a suit asking alimony and counsel
fees pending trial, and another ask
ing that deed she signed disposing
of her dover rights be revoked.
Speaking of the case today, Mrs.
Stokes said:
although Mr.. Stokes. jr., my step
son, was very friendly to me for years
his attitude suddenly changed Ny
lawyers tell me he has Joined his
fathers side in this matter. Stimuli
taneously with this change in his at
titude the elder Mr.. Stokes trans.
ferred to his son forty-six, parcels OF
property in New York valued at
SIC, o,Ooo, 900.
MY husband has no right to make
any such transfer since the property
is mine under dover rights"
Mrs. Stokes then referred to her
previous charges that the present
trouble between herself and her hus-
band was brought about by jealousy
and social reasons. She said:
Il have been informed the prop
erty transfer took place about the
time my husband was trying to force
me into bringing divorce proceedings
| against him. He left the house one
morning last spring and said he was
going to town. He had hardly de
parted when I was visited by a law.
yer who told me I was to have TWEEN.
ty-four hours in which to file a d.
vorce. / was told that II did not dc
this my husband would take the
initiative.
Mr.. Stokes cannot substantiate his
charges against me. and he knows It
He Is trying by publicity to frighten
me into acquiescence. But, with my
reputation and that of my loved ones
at stake, do not have to submit"
