of Emory Dodge and Tom Flame, two
miners who persisted of thirst while at
tempting to cross Death Valley, w-re
found Saturday four miles west of
Skidoo. Cal, by members of the search
ing party securing the desert for a
brother of President Gldridge of the

NOT FOR BANKERS.
In Refusing Pardon for BOchemole
Gov. Stubbs Talks EmphaticaIIy.

Bankers confined in the Kansas
penitentiary on charge of looting the
funds of their banks need not expect
clemency from Governor Stubs. This
fact was demonstrated Monday even
ing when the wife of Edward Boche-
MOLE the Ellinwood banker serving
an indeterminate sentence from one
to five years, pleaded in vain with the
governor for clemency for her hus
band.
Bochemole has served little over a
year of his sentence and his family
and friends confidently expected to
secure his pardon at this time as he
had a good condEct record at the
prison. But the governor did not hes
itate at all in refusing to even go into
the case. Gov Stubs has no SYM
pathy at all for a man who betrays
trust. He argues that the banker who
dissipates the money placed in his
hands by confding public should
pay the penalty. The bankers wild
ow, in this case, is a splendid woman,
entitled to sympathy and considera-
ton, but the governor thought also
of the widows who had lost their
money placed in the Fllinwood bank
and hardened his heart to the plea
for Bochemole's freedom.
In expressing his views on this mat
ter Governor Stubs said:
Il don't believe in going quite so far
as they do in China. but 1 would keep
these bankers in the penitentiary until
they have served their sentence
The Chinese method of punishment
in most cases is the simple one of de-
capitation.
The prison board had recommended
a pardon for Bochemohle. Under the
terms of his sentence he was eligible
to a pardon. He was sentenced to
term of from one to five years in the
renitentiary and has served a year and
q month. His brother Leo Bochemohle,
committed suicide rather than so to the
penitentiary. The only charge against
was that of receiving money
when ne knew his bank to be insolvent.
