Fire Destroys Printing Plant in Colon

Press despatches have brought news of a serious fire in Colon, Panama Canal Zone, which swept a good portion of a block or two. By cable from our West Indian Union office, in Colon, we learn that our printing plant was destroyed. Here was issued an English monthly, the Caribbean Watchman, and a Spanish monthly, with a variety of smaller publications. Our sympathy is with the believers in the West Indian field in this sad loss and trial. They will doubtless be compelled to call for assistance in resuming their printing work in that field.
