There was little insurance in Colon. as
the rates were very high. All the the in-
surance was in foreign companies. The
lumber yard of the Boston Ice Company,
with POO. 900 feet of lumber was destroyed.
There were six steamers at the docks on
Tuesday and all gave food and shelter 10
those who applied. The railroad lost Its
freight sheds and sixteen cars, valued at
$4,000. Traffic was delayed on the road
for twenty-four hours. The burned dis
trict included more than 800 houses. Re
lief trains came from Panama early on
Tuesday and before two days the homeless
people had drifted away.
Although Colon rose from the ashes Of
April /, 1850, it Will probably never be re
built again. \ few months ago NJ. Sauter-
aux, of Paris, proposed to the Columbian
Government plan for the remodeling OF
the city. His plan was rejected because it
was believed useless to try to rescue 1t from
the malarious grave into which it was sink
ing. So Colon will probably lose all its
character as city and sink into small
village

THE WORK OF INcENDIARIEs.

The people believe the fire was the work
of inceniaries. Some persons who live IN
the neighborhood of the building where
the fire started say they heard a noise OF
men moving about and rolling barrels at
midnight The firemeu who first attacked
the flames say their water had no effect be-
cause of the kerosene and alcohol which
had been poured on the burning building.
The Panama star and HcyOld closes It's
article on the fire thus:
Good night, Colon, good night. Much
we fear that Ichabod must now be written
above thy portals. The vitality that lifted
thee smiling like phoenix from thine
ashes, in 50. no longer throbs within thy
breast, and for many a day to come will
the desolation that uisited thee on the
morning of September -, 1890, linger like
a cloud over thy destiny.

Story of a Smart Dog.

NEW 1OIk
People living up town, in the neigh
borhood of Sixth and Oxford streets,
Philad elphia, oft II see droveS of sheep
driven through the streets. One man
with his drOves has for an assistant
only shepherd dog, who is an expert
in his way. The man is fond OF STOP
ping at saloons, and tells the dog, by a
wave of his hand, to mind the sheep
while he is absent.
Recently gentleman living near the
saloon timed the shepherd; he was in
the house thirty-fve minutes. The dog
marShaled the sheep close together
right at the corner. near where his
master entered door, and then lay
down to rest, but was on the alert for
any movement among the sheep. He
kept them packed closely together, and
if one moved out of the line he rose
and with few barks soon had the sheep
back to place. He would run around
the flock to see if all was right and then
lay down again. only to repeat the
watch when another moved. He had
them in such group that they filled
the street from curb to curb, but he
would not allow them to get on the
pavement.
At last a wagon came along: the
driver wanted to turn up the street, and,
not being able to go through the group
of sheep. stopped. The dog saw the
dilemma, stepped out and soon had the
sheep arranged in file on one side of the
street, leaving plenty of room for the
horses and wagon to pass. After 1T was
all done his master came out of the sa-
loon and gave the dog a pat OH the head
aud piece of pretzel by way of reward.
