What career of crime, bloody and
vengeful, it is in which has INDUCED
the last of Italy's bandits, to the great
joy of south Italy peasants and the
amusement of the civilized nations.
Born of family more or less affected
with brain trouble and otherwise alb
normal, Giuseppe Musolino, epileptic
since childhood, started on his ca
reer of crime when, at the age of II,
he inflicted mortal wound upon a
companion with whom he had quar-
relied For this act he was imprisoned
for several years. Upon his release he
was accused rather naturally of most
of thescrimes of any neighborhood in
which he happened to be. At the age
of Is he threatened his father SO seri-
ously that the protection of cara
bineers was asked. Two years later
le-joined the local section of that in
famous society, the ''Mafa," which in
the southern part of Italy is known
as the Piccaotheria or "bad <life."
Musolino had rival for the leader
ship of the Piccaotheria, whom he
killed. This was October %. 1897.
This man, Zoccoli, and his relatives of
the same name seem to have been the
Nemesis which drove Musolino on to
his career of crime and brigandage.
In his trial for the killing of Zoccoli,
Musolino's companions in the "Mafia"
did not observe the usual custom of
secrecy, but gave witness against him.
This was the additional bitterness
which made him vow to get revenge
on anyone who had been in any way
connected with his arrest and trial.
His sentence was for 81 years of hard
labor, but in less than four months
Musolino escaped and retreated to the
forest where he started on his career
of vendetta. He at once let his fam

and devotion to duty are geneally rec
ognized, but the feeble health of sew
eral justices of the highest of United
States courts has made it extremely
gratifying to many that an opportu-
nifty has come to infuse into the court
the strength and renewed energy
which comes with the appointment of
a new and active justice.
One of the most prominent lawyers
practicing before the supreme court
said not long ago that while the in
evitable retireme nt'of Mr.. Justice Gray
was to be deplored and regretted, it
was a compromising advantage that
court. \
Horace Gray was appointed asso-
ciate justice of the Supreme court by
President Arthur, December 20, 1881,
to succeed Justice Clifford. He was
born in Boston, Mass, March "a, 1928,
his grandfather, William Gray, being
one of the most prosperous shipown-
ers of his day, having had 60 or more
ships at sea at one time. His uncle,
Francis Galley Gray, gave largely to
Harvard college, Gray hall being
named after him. His father, Horace
Gray, was one of the most substantial
business men of Boston. Horace Gray
was educated in Boston and at Har-
ward, and was admitted to the bar in
1851. In 1857 he formed partner
ship with Judge Hoar. In August, 1864,
he was appointed associate justice of
the Massachusetts, supreme court, and
in September, 1873, became the chief
Justice. His decisions cover wide
range of subjects and form the basis
of valuable original references in
law.
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes is a
son of the author, Oliver Wendell
Holmes, and has been justice of the
Massachusetts, supreme court since
1882. He was born in Boston in 1s41,
and was educated at the public schools
and Harvard college and Harvard law
school. Immediately after his grad
uation from Harvard he enlisted in
the Twelfth Massachusetts, regiment,
and was wounded at Antietam and
again at Fredericksburg, where he
was mustered out as brevet lieuten-
ant colonel.
He took up the law after the war
and edited the twelfth edition of
"Kent's Commentaries" and for three
years was editor of the American Law
Review. He was for a time one of the
law faculty at Harvard. He served as
associate justice of the supreme court
until 1899, when he was made chief
Justice.

NEW JUSTICE NAMED
Oliver Wendell Holmes to Succeed
Horace Gray.

states Supreme Court.

The president has accepted the res
ignation of Associate Justice of the
Supreme Court Horace Gray, whichhas
been in his hands for over q month.
At the same time the president ap-
pointed Oliver Wendell Holmes, chief
justice of the supreme court of Massa-
chusetts. to the vacancy caused by the
resignation of Mr.. Justice Gray.
Mr.. Justice Gray had q stroke of
paralysis last January. Since then he
has had another stroke. He is man
of great size, with natural tendency
to apoplexy. He has not been on the
bench since he was first stricken, and
his resignation has been expected by
all his friends for several months,
though it has not been known to any
except those who were closest to-him
and the president that the request for
the appointment of his successor had
already been made. Justice Gray had
been on the supreme court bench long
er than any other man now there ex-
cept Justice\ Harlan.
The new justice, Mr.. Holmes, was
not himself an intimate friend of the
president, but he was high in the es-
timation of the circle of Massachu-
sets politicians and statesmen with
whom the president had been most
identified. Senator Lodge and those
who move with him in public affairs
in and about Boston have always been
known to regard Mr.. Holmes as the
leading jurist of his generation.
Mr.. Justice Gray retired on his full
salary, $4,000. Under the law he
might have retired at any time during
the last two years, as he is "a years of
age. There are three other men on the
supreme bench whose privilege it is
to retire voluntarily on full pay. They
are Chief Justice Fuller and Justices
Harlan and Sh;ras. The patriotism

which did not occur for another two
years and eight months, he put to
death in all 10 persons included in his
scheme of lifelong vendetta.
The curious side of his career, says
Current Literature, is the fact that
Musolino convinced the people OF the
southern provinces, the wealthy and
enlightened as we'll as the poorer and
more ignorant classes, that he was
systematically aided and was immune
from death by the authorities. The
southern imagination at once took
hold of his adventurous career, en-
bellished it with romance and threw
around it a glamor which makes him,
even now, while in prison, serving the
life-term fixed by his recent convic-
ton, hero. demigod and martyr.
