Ex-Sheriff ‘Jimmie’ O'Brien and Abbie Ella Cook O'Brien, his wife, con- \tinue to make life @ burden for each other. Since tho failure of their double divorce case, the status quo in the §%,- 000 mansion at No. 11 West Highty-sixth street, has been re-established, Mrs. O’Rrien and the children living there with a house full of gervants who were witnesses against her, and a squad of private detectives quartered in the billi- ard room by Mr, O'Brien. Robert L. Turk asked Justice Davis of the Supreme Court to-day, in behalt of Mrs. O'Brien, for another counsel fee of $2,000; enough in additton to buy her & new outfit of wearing apparel, an order expelling the four servants, and the appolntment of a commission to take the testimony of a witness living out of the State, to be used 4m the ap- proaching second trial of the doutbie divorce action. Mr. Turk read Mrs. O'Brien's am- davit, in which she declared that Mrs. Therese Kugel, the cook, was a bad woman and had taken her fifteen-: old daughter, Kugel, who is nurse maid to Mrs. O'Brien's little girl to a house of bad reputatio: hat Kuge! got her husband to make a will leaving ali to her in 18%, soon after which he died suddenly, and that the ewill 8 upset afterward.
