among q large delegation OF the city's

In connection with the building Of

became necessary to drain Kensico

Husband Now Sorry He Signed
Paper to Get Wife to Return.
Every Privilege ls Given to Woman,
Even to Entertaining Former Gen.
tlemen Friends, While He Be-
comes Slave.

Kansas City. Mos. A. Dickson has
repudiated the most unique marriage
contract ever entered into in the his
tory of Kansas City. The document
was drawn up by his wife and gave
her every privilege, even to the adop-
tion OF affinities II she cared so to do.
The Dicksons quarreled few weeks
after their marriage, eighteen months
ago. and, Dickson says, under duress
OF intense love, he signed what he now
admits was very foolish contract to
get his wife to return to him.
Details Of the marital troubles OF
the Dicksons were made public the
other day in deposition filed in the
circuit court In a suit for divorce filed
by Dickson. Dickson admitted he was
compelled on several occasions to go
on Bonded knees to his wife and ask
her forgiveness. His reward was not
forgiveness. He merely was allowed
to bask once more in the light OF her
beauty, to give her his salary each
week and subsist on the crumbs OF
affection she chose to give him.
Mrs. Dickson lives at No. 1920 Tracy
avenue. this city. Eighteen months
ago they were married. Three weeks
later they separated. The husband in
his deposition says the separation was
due to the fact that she continued to
be a friend Of men with whom she
went before their marriage. Mrs. Dick
son says the reason was that her hus-
band was too exacting and Jealous
without cause.
Last March, upon the earnest solici.
tation OF the husband, a reconcilia-
ton was effected. but not until the
wife had exacted written statement
from her husband. pledging her inde-
pendence and promulgating herself as
boss Of the home. The woman die
tated the statement and Dickson
signed 1t. She made no promises.
Here is the pledge Dickson took:

pose of stocks. Professional selling
also was prompted by the rule of the
court against the beef packers in Chi
