Tho most picturesque object in Naples Is tho old Cnstel Doll' Uovo. near tho beginning of a famous drive thnt encircles the bay and within vlow of the windows of tho hotels mostly patronized by foreigners. It la n small, crnggv Island, sur mounted by hoary wnlls, which by ago have been dnrkoned to tho bolor of tho rock and Is called "The Castlo of the egg." because according to tho Nea politan tradition, tho poet Virgil, who wns nn enchnnter, built tho castlo upon nn egg, which ho had turned Into rock, nnd thoro It stands until this dny. nnd shall stand until tho egg la brokon. Tho sailors regard this cnstlo with great horror, because In olden days a torrlblo dragon Was kept undornenth Its walls, In a pool, separated from tho Bea by n grating. On stormy nights fishermen who Hvo In tho holghbor hood enn hear tho dragon scrcoch and howl, although tho torrlblo creature has been dead for centuries. Tho old cnstlo hns had a promlnont place In history. Ub wnlls hnve wit ncssed many tragedies, but during tho present generation It has been used ns a garrison for troops, nnd a battalion of heavy artillery occuplos It now. Tho Interior Is modernized, nlthough the gunB nre antique, nnd visitors nro allowed to enter If they bring n per mit from tho general commanding tho city, but the prison nnd the dungeons are no longer shown.

Tho InrgoBt gold producing country is the Trnnsvanl. whero tho output In creased from J8.000.000 in 1880, to Sin3.000.000 In 1907. The Increase In tho production ot tho TransVnul mlnos- made during tho year 1807 almost equaled tho entire production of the gold fields In Alaska, in round figures, tho worlds production of gold from the discovery of America In 1492 to 1SS0 wns about J6.300.000.000. The en- tiro world's supply of gold could not have been In excess of $8,500,000,000. The Inst 30 years has doubled this sup ply, and If tho present production is maintained for another generation, It will double again.

Nearly flvu months ago tho United States dis trict court for the southern district of Illinois decided that tho eggs wero not lust the thing for human consumption and dlrectod its marshal "totally to dostroy thorn."
