to report of 1901). Besides being
one of the most beautiful sites in
the world ancient and modern, it
is the largest city in Italy, being
divided into sections by the heights
of Sant’ Elmo, < apodimonte, and
ridges. Its central street
and avenue for traffic is the “Tole

south to the sea. Its nearness to
