Gladys, the third wife of Edward ', Brinkman, city detective working at the South Side station, filed an an- swer and cross-petition against him ' In district court yesterday afternoon, a few hours after he had filed suit for divorce from her.

She says he has ' threatened to kill her, has driven her from their home, 2550 Pierce street, has twisted her arms, has beaten her till her body was black and blue. Almost immediately after their marriage, November 20, 1919, he be gan calling her indecent names and nagging, she alleges. "He is a man of low, vulgar habits, incapable of understanding the nice ties of life, endowed with brute strength, but with no kindness in his makeup," says her cross-petition. They lived together until Monday, I'.rinkmans petition declares. Gladys flies into a temper, calls him names, strikes him and has refused to cook his meals, the petition continues.
