"He's a broth of a b'y," is "Daddy"
Tim Sullivan, age 112 of Williams Bay,
Wis., who was the guest of honor at tho
annual picnic of the United Celtic-American
societies of Chicago, on the 8th Inst.
"Daddy" Sullivan, as he Is called by
the people of Williams Bay. was "discov
ered" by a Chicago scout and taken out
of Wisconsin, where he has. resided for
sixty years, and given the best of every
thing at the picnic and days 'of sight
seeing followed. And the way he talked
about old times and the "ould sod," was
a caution. Listen to some of It caught
by the Tribune:
"What's thatr Do I remember the night
of the big wind In Ireland? Why, to be
sure, it was in January, 1839. I remember
It as well as if it was yesterday. Sure,
I was about iO years of age at the time.
Indeed do I remember the big wind. It
carried the roof off my father's house
and set it down in a bog about two miles
away. .
"I was born In the parish of Castle
Gregory, County Kerry, which everybody
knows Is the best county in Ireland. Are
there' any County Limerick men here
about me? I'd be afraid to make any
boast if there' was a Limerick or a Mayo
man In the crowd.
"I was speaking about the big wind.
It came in from the Atlantic ocean right
at the heads of Kerry, and it swept sev
eral counties. But there, was no one
killed. It was 'Little Christmas' night,
and the candles we had burning In honor
pf St Stephen saved the. lives of the
people from the storm, Terranouns, man.
but It blew a gale, ' Some parts of Kerry
were found the next day in the county
of Limerick. That's why some parts of
Limerick are all right to this day.
Heard Dan O'ConneU Speak.
"Is it fooling me you are asking me if
I ever heard ' Daniel O'ConneU speak? I
did hear him more than once, and I'll
never forget it. He died in J847, if I re
member right, and It w8S several years
before that when I heard him at Castle
Gregory. Man alive, but he was a great
speaker! Not a word of a lie. there were
2T.0.00O people to hear him speak at Castla
Gregory. O'Corinell, you know. was a
Kerry man. All the great Irish orators
come from Kerry. Are you laughing at
me because I said 260,000 people heard him
speak? Read Irish history and you'lt
see where "700.000 people heard him once
on Tara'a hill. '
"If God spares me till next year I'm
o!ng back to Ireland and one of the first
places I'll visit will be the grave of
O'ConneU.' He was Ireland's liberator.".
In answer' to what he attributed his
longevity Mr. Bull! van said:
"To temperance in everythlng-eatlng.
drinking, sleeping, and play, Eight hours'
sleep, has brcrt my motto all through life.
I have never had a pain or ache. For
more than fifty years I have taken a cold
bath every week. Even in winter tlms
when they are cutting Ice In William
bay IJump. ; In and have my . swim. 1 1
think J'df dte If 1' BldhT hav wV !dlp tn
the . Waterwhen JhJ,ce,l jejq cut apng
In Jfebruaiy. , m .,(l,!,t'. ,mr?f V
Smoked for SUtr-Kive, Years.'"
"I never drank much llijijor. . may be a
gallon of whisky in all my life. But 1
used to be a great smoker. Thirty years
ago I quit tobacco, after using it for
about sixty-five years.
"I'll tell you how I happened to give up
the pipe. One day, it was In the fall of
the year and we had the thrashers with
us. It was Just after dinner, and I was
going out to the barn. I was smoking
my pipe when some of the hot ashes flew
and set fire to a small pile of straw. Wt
put the fire out, but It was a narrow
escape. I got thinking to myself how
easy It would have been to have been
burned out of house and home, and so 1
threw the pipe away. '
"I remember hearing the folks in
Ireland tell about the battle of Lake Erie
at Put-In bay, which was ;fought ninety-1
nine years September 10. That's a long
while ago. Isn't it? Of course, we wen?
glad to hear of Perry's victory. It was
thirty-four years after the battle that I
first saw America. I came over in a
saUIng vessel and landed ' In r Boston. . 1
lived In the east a few years and then
went to Canada. There I met a colleen
from the County Carlow and we wer
married. She was a grand woman, even
if she didn't come from Kerry.
"We went to Wisconsin and raised a
family. She died years ago. , I have two
sons and a daughter, and I live with the
girl, who Is married. - . ' .
, "For the last four or five years Tve
been taking life easy. All I have to do is
to fish, and I don't have to do that un
less I want to. I caught one this year
that weighed thirty pounds, but he got
away."

you wilt take your scalpyouler and sever
the Jugular vein, cut the brachipod ar

what you have done for him he will rise
and call you blessed. This country Is a
allent but eloquent refutation! of Bob In

presidential electors, the same would
result In a fraud and deception upon the
republican voters of the state of Ne
braska wherein and whereby the said six
named persons would obtain votes of
the republican voters of the state of Ne
braska, and thereafter use the authority
vested in them as presidential electors to
betray the republican party and to betray
tha republican voters of the state ot
Nebraska, by casting their votes for
nominees of a distinct and independent
party, to-wit, the bull moose party, and
alt of which would deprive the republican
electors of the state of Nebraska of their
constitutional right to express their own
choice for president and vice president
of the United States through their ballot
for electors for that purpose; and
Whereas, The .said six named presi
dential electors, A. V.g Pease, W. J.
Broatch. George S. Flora, W. E. Thorns,
A. R. Davis and Allan Johnson, by their
declarations have betrayed their obliga
tion to the republican party and the
trust which had been reposed in them by
the republican party, and have violated
their certificate filed with the secretary
of state for nomination, and have vio
lated their pledge given when they ac
cepted said nomination, and have de
clared their purpose to co-operate or
affiliate with, and if elected as presi
dential electors . not to vote for the
nominees of the republican national con
vention, for president and vice president,
but tn vote for the nominees' of the pro
gressive or bull moose party for presi
dent and vice president of the United
States, have disqualified themselves to
longer continue as candidates for repub
lican presidential electors, and In law
and In morals and In good conscience
have vacated and forfeited their tight
to longer continue as candidates for re
publican presidential electors, and their
right o so longer continue as republican
candidates for republican presidential
electors Is hereby declared to be for
feited and annulled and their nomina
tion vacated; and
Whereas. It Is provided In Section 125-r
of chapter 26 ot the compiled statutes
of Nebraska, 1911. p. 943, that in the use
of voting machines "that tbe names of
the candidates for presidential electors
need not appear on the ballot labels, but
In lieu thereof, one ballot In each patty
column, or row, may contain only the
words "Presidential Electors' preceded by
the party name and the name of the
candidates for president and vice-presi
dent, and every vote registered for such
ballot shall operate as a vote for all
candidates of such party for presidential
electors, and be counted as such; and
Whereas, By said section of the statute
laws of the State of Nebraska, there may
be put on the ballot label in voting ma
chines the names ' of William Howard
Taft, for president, and James S. Sher
man, for vice .president, preceded by the
name "republican party" that the con
templated and declared purpose of the
said six presidential electors so nomin
ated on the republican ticket to vote for
the nominees of the progressive party
ticket for president and vice president
would be and is In violation of the pro
visions of the statute laws above quoted,
and to permit their names to appear upon
the republican ticket and to be so voted
for as provided in the statute law above
quoted. ' would result In the violation of
and in a nullification of the said statu
tory provision of the election law of the
State of Nebraska, and therefore would
be unlawful and , likewise unconstitu
tional; and , 1
Whereas, There is provided in 'section
106, page 968, Compiled Statutes of Ne
braska, 1911, a form of ballot which may
and which shall be used at the general
election that a cross put tn a circle after
the name "Republican", may be courted
as a straight party ticket and likewise
that cross with a circle after the
names of the republican presidential elec
tors shall be a vote In favor ot all of
said republican presidential electors; that
to so place upon the said ballot the names
of the said six presidential electors as
republicans, would operate to nullify and
be In violation of the said provisions of
the said Australian ballot law last Above
referred to In this, that two only of the
eight presidential electors nominated as
republican would vote for the. nominees
of the republican party for president and
vice president, and the Six complained of,
although voted for as republican presi
dential electors, would in voting cast
their ballots In opposition to the repub
lican nominees for president and . vice
president, and for the nominee of an
Independent political party, to-wit, the
progressive or bull moose party, and by
which they would be casting their ballot
likewise In favor of the enforcement tn
the administration of governmental af
fairs of the declaration of principles set
forth In tbe platform of the progressive
party as distinct from the declaration of
principles set forth in the platform of
the republican party, and all of which
would be as much in violation of the
trust heretofore reposed in the six
named presidential, electors as ' if they
should vote for the nominees of the
democratic party, and for the enforce
ment of the . declaration ' of . principles
adopted in the democratic national plat
form; therefore
Be It Resolved, By the republican state
central committee of Nebraska, ' repre
senting and speaking for the republican
party of the state ot Nebraska, and being
duly authorised thereunto, at a meeting
of said committee duly called and held
In the city of. Omaha this 11th day of
Scptmeber, 1912. that A. V. Pease, W. J,
Broatch, George S. Flora, W. E. Thorne,
A. R. Davis and Allan Johnson are' no
longer entitled to be considered as can
didates for presidential electors on the

duct hereinbefore set " forth, and for
various"1 other causes and reasons, their
right to continue to be or remain can-'
dldates for presidential electors on the
republican ticket has become forfeited
and is terminated "and vacated.

publican state central -committee proceed

hands which would then
dry and scale, and then

My hands were disfigured
at tbe time, and sore.
The trouble was very
annoying, and disturbed my sleep.' This
last February It was ever so much worse
than before. I did not do all my work on
account of the condition of my hands., I
sould not put them In water without mak
ing them worse. I tried m lot of home
remedies, also salve and liniment that
dalmed to be a cure for tha trouble, but
I did not obtain a cure, '
