OFFSETS UPDEGRAFF'S STORY
Prosecution Has Thirteenth Hour
Sensation to spring.

Topeka, Kan, Dec. ga very important
discovery was made in the Collins case to-
day 1t has no bearing, however, on the
verdict of the jury, except to strengthen il.
The case of the gun that killed James S.
Collins was found in a closet of the dead
mans office The morning Of the murder
Janitor Cowherd, of the building in which
the office was located, saw John Collins
enter the closet with large package. He
left the closet without it. Il is thought,
therefore. that the package in question
was he gun case which had been hunted
for so much and the disappearance of
which has been until now one of the un-
solved mysteries of the murder. Mr.. Col
Inns always kept his gun in the case, which
was locked up IN a closet. The supp0si-
tion is that John took the case out of the
closet during the absence of his father at
an entertainment the previous evening and
that after the murder he realized that the
gun case, which was in his room evidently,
would be proof of his guilt. He according
ly had to make away with it. and took it
to his fathers office and hid it in the
closet. where it could not be readily found,
or if found the supposition would be that
his father left it there.
The discovery of the gun case, while
seemingly not such an important matter
has caused quite sensation here. 1t is
thought that If the jury had acquitted
John the discovery made today would pro-
woke the citizens to lynch him. 1t is re-
garded as conclusive evidence of his guilt
ounty Attorney Jetmore will at once, it
is thought, file a complaint against Mrs
Burnett, Sidney Updegraft and others for
perjury.

ASTOR'S WAGER WON.
Table for Twenty-Seven Made From
Single Section of Redwood Tree

Table for Twenty-Seven Made From
Single Section of Redwood Tree.
LONDON, Oct. 16.--William Waldorf
Astor has won a wager of $4,000 by
giving a long expected dinner to
twenty-seven persons, seated around a
table made from a single cross section
of great California redwood tree.
Nearly two years ago Mr.. Astor had
discussion with Gen. Owen Williams
about the size of California trees, the
EngliShInan not believing that they
grew to such enormous size as Mr.. AS
tor asserted. The result was a wager
by the American millionaire that he
would give a dinner to twenty seven
persons, who would dine comfortably
Ground the trunk Of a California tree.
At great expense Mr.. Astor had a
section of a gigantic tree sent to him
from California. 1t measured eighty
one feet in circumference. When the
tree arrived in England it was taken
to CliVeden, the beautiful country place
of Mr.. Aston ON the Thames, near Hen
ley. There it was partially buried in
a part of the park known as the Half
Neon. What the object was in burying
it is not known, but it was left for
months part ally under ground
-Four weeks go the section Of the tree
was turned over to a firm at Ayle bury,
who smoothed off the surface and poll
lshed it highly. AS it was impossible
to get the table into the house, a large
marquee tent was erected over it in a
little glade Of the Half Neon wood. The
ground was streWn with fresh ferns 10
make a natural carpet and there the
dinner was given.
No cloth was spread over the polished
surface, but it was prettily decorated
with wild flowers by young Miss Astor.
While beautiful candelabra cast soft
light over the costly silver plate and
china. Chinese lanterns were hung
from the great doorway of Cliveden to
the marquee and the glade was gayly
Illuminated.
Most of the guests had been at Give
den for a week, while others came
from TaplOW Court, where Lady Louisa
Grenfell was having house party. Tea
was served in the great hall of Give
den during the afternoon and so-n after
o'clock the march to the large dining
table in the glade began. AS the guests
entered the marquee there were many
ordinations Of wonder and delight
Mr.. Astor presided, with his twenty
six guests seated in circle around
the tree. They were bit crowded, but
facetious guests remarked that Mr.. AS
tor had invited the thinnest people he
knew,
