''Stego'' Arrived Dead.

DR.. W. Q. Brewer is the proud
of an alleged stegomyia
female mosquito which was mail
ed to him from New Orleans. Al
though the insect was dead on
arrival here, the genial Doctor
raped it over the head a few
times with a surgical instrument
and then carefully amputated its
proboscis. His post mortem ex-
animation developed the fact
that the mosquito had no fangs
and that its weight was less than
a fiftieth of an ounce.
