SON ACCUSED OF PARRIclDE.
Walter whitbeck Indicted BY Fayett,

Walter Whitbeck Indicted BY Fayette
County Grand Jury, at West Union.
West Union, April 29.-Walter Whit
beck was yesterday afternoon indicted
by the Fayette county grand jury for
the murder of his father Ardo Whit
beck, farmer who was found brutally
slain in his barn yard several weeks
ago. Young Whitbeck is now in GUS
tody, having been captured in Duluth
after long search for him week or
so after the crime.
The grand jury made a thorough in
vestigation of the murder, examining
in all thirty-dive different witnesses.
The evidence taken, so far as now
known, was largely circumstantial, but
the net woven about the young man
was strong. However, the report is that
one important witness found by the
state testified to having seen young
Whitbeck at the scene Of the murder
on the night it was committed.
Just what line of defense Whitbeck
will adopt is not known, but prob
ably he will seek to show an alibi.
Some days before the murder he an
nounced that he expected to journey
to ST. Paul. 1t is claimed that he rode
only a short distance on the train and
then came back and that he was seen
by several persons in the late after
noon of the day Of the murder.
Whitbeck maintains the same stolld-
itv, that he has thus far preserved in
the case,

Indigestion is a result, not a cause,

what this effective Stomach and diges-

Ames, April 29.-Speaking OF the
free scholarships recently offered by
the board of trustees of Iowa State
College, President Storms today said:
The fifty scholarships are intended
to aid the needy and the deserving A
scholarship generally means free tu-
ition. At Ames tuition is, and for
wears has been, free. Consequently.
contingent expenses incurred at the
college
I'VE recognize in the county super
intendent the best possible agency to
select the one most entitled to the
scholarship and consequently have
empowered this officer to make the
appointment subject to the approval
of the superintendent of schools in the
city where the appointee graduates.
The total increase in Attendance at
the college during the past two years
has been about 300-a number sutfi-
GENTLY large to keep the institution
embarrassed every year for lack of
funds to meet increased expenses for
additional equipment and teaching
force. The state college, however. be-
longs to the people. and the trustees
are endeavoring TO have all classes
represented in college courses, as we'll
as all sections of the state. 1t is the
hope of the trustees that the scholar
ships offered will be the means of en-
couraging fifty additional young peo-
