OFFICERS MARITAL TROUBLES
1t. Burbank Files Suit for Divorce
From Filipino Woman.

Leavenworth, Kan. Sept. 25--
First Lieut.. Sidney S. Bur-
bank, Sixth infantry, stationed at
Fort Leavenworth filed suit in the dis
trict court today to annul pretended
marriage with Mrs. Conception VAS
ques, Filipino woman.
The fling of this suit Is the outcome
OF a charge made by Mrs. Vasques TO
the war department last spring that
Lieut., Burbank had married her
while In the Philippine Islands, and
that she was his lawful wife and want
ed him to support her. The first no
tice OF this alleged marriage was made
public after the announcement OF the
engagement of Lieut. Burbank to So
ciety girl of Leavenworth.
The story of the Filipino marriage
of Lieut.. Burbank. which he pro-
claims is a fraud. comes from Valla-
doid province, where Lieut.. Bur-
bank was in command of garrison Of
United States troops In 1901. Mrs.
Vasques, who was widow with three
small children, lived in the village
where the garrison was located. Lieut..
Burbank came to Fort Leaven.
worth year ago and report followed
him that he was married to a Filipino
woman and was the father Of q new
born babe. The Filipino widow fol-
lowed this by filing copies of docu-
ments pretending to be a marriage
contract with Lieut.. Burbank,
TO offset this Lieut. Burbank and
Corp. Burns sent afiidavits to the
war department stating that Lieut.
Burbank was not in the village, but on
campaign at the date OF the pretended
marriage. Also that there was no notice
of the marriage posted or announced by
the town crier going up and down the
streets OF the village and proclaiming In
accordance with the Filipino custom.
and the pretended marriage Is fraud
and any documents to back 1t forg-
cry,
IL IL said that Lieut.. Burbank's solu--
ton Of the affair Is that n justice or
the peace and president OF the village
where he commanded the troops was
Imprisoned for six months for insub-
ordination: that the justice had charge
of the records. and In his anger and TO
get even With him permitted the wo-
man to apply for and make
out marriage certificate.
His object In fling the suit
here Is to clear up his record. Under
the Kansas divorce laws the woman
had 40 DAYS to answer. She will not
have time TO do so as Il would require
at least three months to prepare any
defense and file 1t by person now IN
the Philippines.

Peruna curcs nil such cases of dys-
pepsia, simply because 1t cures catarrh
wherever located. The reason 80 many
cases Of dyspepsia suffer on and on
without any relief, trying this medicine
and that medicine, is that these condi-
tons arc not recognized as catarrh of

Any one suffering from dyspepsia,
having tried the ordinary remedies
