Among those receiving epistles were his counsel. Attorney Herbert K. Banna and O. W. (Ike) Punford. jailer. The letters, written on a prison typewriter, have a cheerful note, wherein the condemned man re iterates his faith In the hereafter. The missives thank the receivers for kindness extended. Klngsley Is al lowed the use of a typewriter, and denied the use of a pen, as a pre caution against attempting to cheat the law by cutting an artery In wrist ' or neck. Klngsley still entertains hope that tilemenny will be extenaea. no pw tlon asking Intercession has yet been filed with th governor. - Black-bordered Invitations from the prison warden to the execution will be mailed the coming week. Warden James Lewis has extended verbal Invitations to several local people. The law requires IS wit nesses, two from the county In which the crime was committed. The sheriff and district attorney have, as yet not designated anybody for the grim mission.

"But It won't be hard, I feel, To make a warwhoop of a comblp J tlon grunt and squeal."

T PLANE IN HISTORY LANDS ON FACE CRATER LAKE CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK, Ore., Oct. 8. Braving the dangers of high altitude and precipitous cliffs of ths crater walls, the first airplane In history landed on the wind blown waters of Crater Lake this afternoon. The ship, a yellow winger amphibian with crimson fuselage, was piloted by Clayton L. Scott of Seattle, accom panied by Oeorge Dahlberg, mechanic Seattle. The feat of landing a plana on the lake bad heretofore been considered foolhardy and It was thought that If once landed, the ship would be un able to gain sufficient altitude to climb from the confines of the sur rounding walls, avsraglng 1000 feet In nelgftt and reaching nearly 2O0O at some points. The ship approached the lake from the Anna Springs checking station and was flying fairly low when It reached the brink of the rlm. With little hesitancy, the big amphibian circled gracefully around Wizard Island and landed easily near the shores of the Island, despite heavy waves lashed Into whltecaps by a strong mountain wind. Soon after It landed, the ship taxied toward the east shore, and slowly raised from the water and gradually gained altitude until It was high above the Mm. The amphibian circled low over the Information building while Pilot Scott tossed out pictures of the ship and Identifica tion of Its passengers. The ship barely missed tree tops but soon pointed Its nose skyward and disap peared over the eastern horizon. Scott and Dahlberg landed at the Medford airport yesterday afternoon to refuel, previous to departing for Crater lake at 8:30. Airport officials considered the feat Impossible, and did not believe the fliers would suc ceed. The fliers did not return to Med ford following toelr landing at Crater Lake, but continued north, It was. learned today. Construction started recently on 10 mlle telephone circuit between Marsh field and Coaledo. LITERARY SOCIETY FERN VALLEY, Ore., Oct. .

Scott was completely destroyed by fire Friday about noon. No one was home at the time ao It Is a mystery ho wthe fire started. A small In surance was carried on the building. Give a thought to your spices and extracts. There are tremendous differences in quality --some things you would insist upon if you knew all of the facts. lis t :i Cloves Rich in flavor Compare a spoonful of Schilling ground Cloves with any other. The difference is marked. Schilling's is dark brown in color. The other will be a red or yellow brown. Schilling's is so rich with oil that the tiny granules cling together in clots. The other will look dry and loose. Most ground cloves come in a sifter top tin. But Schilling's is packed in a tin with a large opening. It is so heavy with fragrant oil that it will not shake through a sifter. MUSTARD. A prepared mustard sauce with ' all the "zing" of the mustard flavor but mellowed like a rare, old, snappy cheese. Prepared mustard sauce is being used in dozens of new ways in the mod ern kitchen new ways that call for a new kind of mustard sauce. Schilling's is made according to an entirely new recipe. You have never tasted anything quite like it. It's as different as the wide open mouthed bottle it comes in. LEMON. Schilling Lemon Extract contains 3 times the amount of lemon oil required by the Pure Food Laws 3 times as much! And more than most any other you can buy. That is why it goes further why it imparts a richer lemon flavor. VANILLA. Importers select a special grade of vanilla beans for shipment to Schilling. Their flavor is not flashy like ordinary vanilla beans. It has a peculiar delicacy that permeates everything it touches never freezes out nor bakes out.
