THE SONG or THE STEcOMYIA.
The steEomyia came, a sailing through
the air.
From Mexico or Cuba or the Lord
knows where.
There was pizen in the bite, there
was venom in her eyes.
She lit I'm Pensacola, and the feet
began to fly
The mayor he got busy, with his axes
and his spades.
He opened all the bitches and chopped
down an the weeds,
But the stegomyia smiled and said
don't you know
The mayor thinks he knows il all. but
that Amt so.
Then Porter started out with his fu-
migating corps.
He screened up an the windows and
shut mp every door.
he vowed 20 drive her out and drown
her In the sea,
But the stegOmyia chuckled as she
sat up in a tree.
At last there came a wind from the
far northwest.
The stegomyia shivered and said
she'd take a rest.
Let everybody hollow till Gabriel
blows his horn
For the frost sc is a coming and the
stegomyia's gone.
she got out en- a hurry and she never
said goodbye,
We hope she's sim agoing as hard as
she can rs,
Come hollow everybody, It's the
Hallelyah morn
For the frost Is IS a coming and the
stegomyia's gone.
