GIRL ROSE TO

Successful Brokers

Mrs. Helen Kinney Holmes, the
first woman trader in Wall street,
New York City, has advanced from
switchboard telephone operator to a
manipulation of the stock market
ticker in the busy financial district
of the metropolis.
Eight years ago Mrs. Holmes, then
Miss Helen Kinney, invaded Wall
street where she accepted a position
as telephone operator for a broker
age firm. Up to that time women
in a brokers' office were an unknown
quantity. Her ambition at that
time was to make good at the
switchboard. The future, she believ-
ed, would take care of itself.
No Time to Read "Best Sellers"
AS days grew into weeks and
weeks grew into months, Miss Kin
ney grasped conditions Of the stock
market that were beyond the eX-
pectation of the members Of the
firm, who were watching their
switchboard operator and her meth
DDS of conducting her part Of the
business. While other operators
would spend most of their spare mo-
ments reading the best sellers"
Miss Kinney spent most Of her time
studying the stock markets. Three
years after entering Wall street she
had as good knowledge of stocks
Of the firm.
From switchboard operator Miss
Kinney gradually was moved up peg
by peg, until finally the firm pro-
NOTED her to the position of trader.
She had such volume of sales dur

YOUNG SAILOR
CONFESSES HE
KILLED BRIDE.

served IT," He Told Police
of Dallas

Sure I killed her. That's what
1 wanted to do. If that gun of
mine had not damned on me L would

This is what Private Arthur Jetty,
21-year-old soldier who has just re-
turned from France. said when asked
II it was he who shot his pretty 20
year-old bride to death in her apart
ment in Dallas, Texas. Private Jetty
married the girl the day before he
left for France. and she refused to
live with him when he returned, &C

Mrs. Minnie Jetty, considered one
of the pretUest girls of Dallas, was
shot to death with an automatic pis-
toll. Three of the five bullets fired
entered her body. But Jetty was
not certain she was dead. So he
beat her head into pulp with the
butt of the pistol. So furious were
the blows that the ivory handles of
the pistol were schattered and pieces
of the ivory had to be picked from
her crushed skull.

Jetty declares he heard this and at
once determined to kill his wife.
According to those. who are famil-
lar with the details Of the shooting,
Private Jetty went to the house an
hour before the killing. He con-
cealed himself behind door in his
wife's room. When she came in
from shopping there was a heated
discussion. This followed by the
shooting. After Private Jetty had
murdered his wife he fled from the
house: He was captured an hour la
ter. Mrs. lefty had been dead some
time before the body was found.
II knew she didn't love that SOL

Private Jctty was sent to France
in May, 1918. He married the young
woman the afternoon before he en-
trained. He saw active service in
the trenches and returned to a Texas
camp to be discharged early in Janu-
airy. Following his discharge he
came to Dallas and began looking
for his wife. For some days he was
unable to locate her. He saw her
her home and later went there and
killed her
