allan and Dennery-the first of whom
had been summoned from the theater

that the mornings antagonism had
vanished and the lion and the lamb had
gone together into the green fields of

DIR. SCOTT HELM

On last Friduy night at about eight
o'cock, DR.. Scott Helm, one Of the
most prominent physicians in the ser-
ritory was killed, He had rode one
of his favorite horses. fractious, high
spirited animal, such as the doctor al
ways took pride in, down 10 the 81.
& p depot 70 see the Elk's Of which
order he was a member, off on their
excursion to Tucson. There was
large crowd at the depot and when
the train backed down to the depot
the horse became frightened and the
doctor pulled sharply on the reins.
This caused the horse to rear. The
animal lost it's balance and fell back
wards against a telegraph pole and
then to the ground. The doctor was
thrown to the ground striking on his
head With the horse across Que of his
legs. 1t was found on examination
by che physicians who were ilnmedi-
a5ely summoned that the injury was
at the base of the brain. Brain mat
ter was oozing from the ears. 1t was
apparent at once that no operation
was possible that would save the life
of the injured man and as soon as
possible he was removed to his home
where he died little over an hopr
after the accident.
DR.. Helm was one Of the best
known physicians in the territory. he
located in Phoenix in 1888 and in a
very short time built up large prac-
tice.
He was appointed Surgeon General
Of the Territory soon after his loca-
ton in Phoenix and held the position
for several years with honor and
credit to the service. He was an
honorary member of the Phoenix Fire
Department and the National Guard
of Arizona, holding the rank OF Colo-
mel In the latter.
The funeral on Sunday VAS by far
the largest ever seen in Phoenix.
Thousands of people thronged the
streets and all felt that one OF the
most useful citizens had gone. The
procession was over mile in length,
comprising company OF the Ma
tional Guard and band, the ere de-
partment. the Masonic fraternity, the
Odd Fellows; Workmen and Elks Of
which orders he was an honor
member.
At the grave the beautiful rites ef
the Masonic fraternity were held and

fired last salute over the grave Of

The Southwestern Stockman has
the following concerning the late Irri-
cation Congress held in Lincoln, Ne
braska. 1t cannot be said that the
irrigation congress just closed was IL
very strong body. 1t will be noted
however that it got off or the right
foot when it advocated the constrnc :
tion of water storage reservoirs by the
general government, Yet its recon =
mendations were confined on the sub
Jet to endorsing two water storage
propositions somewhere in Wyoming
and Colorado. 1t is significant fact
that tht mapagepeat Of the congress
