UNCLE DICK" IS NINETY TEIIRE IIAITE CELEBRATES niRTIIDAY OF THE AGED STATES3IAX. School Children Call on Col. Thompson, and the Veteran Speaks at the Banquet lit the Evening. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. TERRE HAUTE. Ind.. June 9. Col. Richard W. Thompson's ninetieth birthday was celebrated in this city, to-night by the Thompson Club, a Republican organization, named In honor of Indiana's oldest statesman. Th? birthday of "Uncle Dick" Thompson, as he is known from one end of the country to the other among the leading politicians, is an event each year In this city, but with the rounding of his four score and ten years it was thought to dignify the occasion with more than ordinary show. Distinguished guests were invited from all parts of the State and from other States, and many of them made It a rolnt to be present. The feature of the evening was a parade, followed by a banquet, with Colonel Thompson and the best known of the guests occupying a central table, and ether tables placed at right angles. Governor Mount's sudden illness at Indianapolis prevented him from being present. The banquet was preceded by a parade, which covered' several city blocks. A band led the procession, which was followed by carriages bearing the speakers and guests of honor. Colonel Thompson was escorted through a heavy rainstorm to the Terre Haute House to attend the banquet. It was nearly 10 o'clock when the guests were seated. There were 275 at the tables, including a few Democrats, who have been Icng-tlme personal friends of Colonel Thompson. Tresldent Tarsons, of the State Normal School, was toastmaster. The invocation was pronounced by the Rev. George H. Simmons, of the .rlrst Baptist Church. The principal address of the evening was by Representative C. B. Landis. of Delphi, who spoke at some length and elicited frequent hearty appiause, especially when he declared In favor of the permanent retention of the Philippines.' He also dencunced the trusts, paying that, while theRepublican party was lambasted as the friend of the trusts, it would In proper time and in an effectual way solve the problem satisfactorily to people of all parties. Mr. Landls's subject was "The Party of Progress: Youthful and Vigorous Ever." Mr. George I. Reed was the only other speaker. His subject was "The Man of the Hour." It was after midnight when Colonel Thompson arose to respond to a toast. At the outset, his voice had the ringing clear tone of the days when he was at his best, but at the end of live minutes he had to stop from weakness. He said he got his political Ideas from the fathers and that while he did not hate a Democrat, he was glad he was not one. There were no impromptu speeches. Among those present was Congressman Faris. whose birthday also came to-day. He is forty-five years old. Just half "Uncle Dick's" age. and it was remarked that he was born fourteen years after Colonel Thompson was first elected to Congress. Letters of regret were read from Jonn Chaney, of Sullivan: V. D. Owen. J. F. Darnell. Judge Hadley, Mortimer Nye. Governor Mount, F. J. Scholz. Lieutenant Governor Haggard. Senator Fairbanks and a cable message from Consul General Gowdy, at Paris. Colonel Thompson spent the day at his heme receiving friends who called to congratulate him. In the afternoon the pupils of several grades of a public pchcol not far from the residence called with their teachers and sang for the colonel. Children are always welcome company for the venerablestatesman, and many boys and girls go to Mm forinformation in connection with their studies. Colonel Thompson has not had many of the fainting spello in late months, such as began attacking him several years ago. and whose cause was beyond the knowledge -of the physicians. They came without prerronltlon and without pain. Nor were they followed by weakness or distress. On the contrary, he always felt better after one of them. They brought complete suspension of animation, and. until he had been through the experience a number of times, caused great alarm to his family. It was as if the machinery of his system stopped for a time to rest. At first it was thought they were due to his confirmed practice of pmoking a number of cigars each day, but the physicians afterward said smoking did not produce the attacks. Colonel Thompson's health for two years has been such that he refrained from attending public gatherings, the only exception being a few weeks ago. when he consented to introduce James Whitcomb Riley to a Terre Haute audience. He has not been confined to the house. except occasionally, and when the weather is pleasant he makes a dally trip to the business part of the city. He is In close touch with public affairs, and only very recently was compelled to shorten his hour3 of reading and writing. He had done a great deal of writing since the publication of hla "Personal Recollections," but most of it was for his own pastime or for use hereafter. A year or so ago he happened to look into one of the school histories used in the elementary grades of the public schools, and was impressed with the involved style and the failure of the author to express himself In language suitable for the age of the children who studied the history. As an experiment, he began writing a history In simple words. He was fascinated with the work, and pursued it to a considerable extent. Some day, perhaps, the book will be published. Col. Richard W. Thompson Is the oldest ex-member of Congress, and the only one living who served in the Congress elected In 1S41. A few years ago. when his boox. "Fersonal Recollections of the Presidents." was published, he sent a copy to Robert C. Winthrop, of Massachusetts, who served with him In that Congress, and with himself and ex -Governor Bradbury, of Maine,, were then the only survivors of the ConKress, but Mr. Winthrop died before he finished reading the book. Governor Bradbury has since died. If George V. Jones, of Iowa, be yet alive he alone of living men sat in Congress earlier than Colonel Thomp son, but only as a delegate trom tne w isconsln Territory in 1S30. It is not thought there are more than three or four living ex-members of the Congress of 1S49, in which Mr. Thompson and Mr. Lincoln sat side by side. The span of Colonel Thomp sons life is best comprenendert by comparison. The year of his birth. 1SD0. Is known as the year of "great babies."

Co!. Richard W. Thompson was born in Culpepper county. Virginia, in 1S09. and Is of Scotch-Irish descent, tie is me iounaer or Lawrence County Seminary. In 1S31 he was admitted to the bar and the same year was elected to the Indiana State Legislature and re-elected in 1S35 and 1SCS. He was elected to Congress In 141. but declined a second term. President Taylor offered him the position of minister to Austria, which he de clined, and he was appointed chief of the Land Office. Lincoln made -him Judge of claims, and President Hayes made him sec retary of the navy in his uaninet.. in 11 Colonel Thompson resigned to accept the chairmanship of the Panama Canal Com pany and later he was elected to tne benen In this county and then apnointed Internal revenue collector for this district.

(Conclnlel from Klrwt Page.)
mered at the door for admittance, all anxious to congratulate the new champion. Brady was dancing with delight from the moment the decision was given that made him for the second time a manager of a world's heavyweight champion. "Jeffries is a corker." he said, "and there Is not a man on earth that caneat him. He's a wonder and no mistake. Let them all come to him now; none of them can ciass with him." ryily Delaney, Jeffries's chief trainer, was beside himself with delight. He said: "I have again brought a champion beater from California, and am naturally proud of it. Fitz was beaten fair and square, and, al though, he put up a game fight, my man had his measure taken from the moment they shaped for the first round." Jim Daly and Jack Jeffries had very little to say regarding the victory, but their goodnatured faces were wreathed in smiles and they looked upon Jeffries as a veritable world-beater. Jeffries himself was surround ed by a host of friends, who congratulated him cn his well-won honors. In response to several inquiries the new champion said: "Fitz fought a good and game battle, and hit me harder than any man whom I have been, up against. He can whip Sharkey in two rounds. I would gain nothing by meet ing Sharkey, again, but am willing to meet any man in the world in whom the public has confidence, and there need be no fear of my quitting the xing for the stage. I will defend my title as champion at all times and against all comers. At no time during tonight's, fight did I feel any misgivings as to my ability to win. I am satisfied that I have well earned the right to be called champion by beating Fitzslmmons, who was undoubtedly the greatest fighter of the age." Jeffries and his party left for New York at midnight and will make the Vanderbilt Hotel their headquarters. Just as soon as Fitzslmmons reached his dressing room his wife, who was anxiously awaiting the outcome of the fight, greeted the fallen champion affectionately. "Keep up your spirits. Bob," she said. "You fought splendidly, and although you were beaten, you are still the prince of fighters." Martin Julian, Fitzslmmons's manager. spoke encouragingly to the defeated pugilist, tut the latter reemed not to realize what was being said to him. His trainers ard sparring partners laid the lanky pugilist on a cot and whispered words of encouragement in h!3 ear. Fitzsimmoi5 had only partially recovered from the shock of defeat and occasionally murmured "How did I come to fight him?" Mr?. Fitzsimrnons and Mrs. Dan Hickey bent. over the prostrate man and bathed his head and face. Clots of blood had formed In the nostrils and the damaged nasal organ began to be a source of worriment to Mrs. Fitzslmmons. "I have nothing to say regarding the outcome of the fight," she said. "But I feel sure that Bob still has a host of friends, who will not forget his past career in the ring." Manager Julian was downhearted but he put on a bold front. When asked for his opinion of the result Julian replied: "Oh, there is very little for me to say. Everybody knows that Bob is game and I feel certain that he still has awarm place in the hearts of many. No matter what comes or goes Bob need not worry about anything as long as I am alive. He is my friend and, I am his. He shall never want for anything and while I feel his downfall most keenly I have the satisfaction of knowing that he was beaten by a clever young fellow with a decided pull in the weights, who showed much cleverness, that the sting of defeat is softened to a great extent." 'Yank" Kenney, the heavy-weight sparring partner who has been with Fitzslmmons all through his training, was crestfallen at the turn affairs had taken. "I did not look for such a result," he said. "Bob was'in excellent shape and the quick manner in which he recuperated from his knock downs in the tenth round proved that he was in fine form. Jeffries was a surprise to me and his quick movements with both hands and feet were a revelation to all of us who had seen his previous performances." Jack Everhardt was equally downcast at the defeat of Fitzslmmons. "You can say for me," he said, "I never imagined that Jeffries could have improved so vastly. Bob was up against a big handicap In regard to weight and I think he acquitted himself splendidly." ft FIGHT BY ROUNDS. A Fair Contest, In Which the Referee Had Little to Do. Round 1 Both men stepped to the center of the ring. They feinted, with Fitzslmmons breaking ground. Jeffries kept almost In the middle of the ring and evidently tried to get the right over.

As soon as Fitzslmmons was carried to his corner the spectators crowded over the benches and through the ropes, and the; police had great difficulty in keeping the ring clear. The partisans of the Callfornian almost went crazy in the excitement and pandemonium reigned for several seconds. Fitzslmmons came to very quickly and Jeffries walked across to the defeated cham pion's corner and both shook hands warmly. Judging from the expression on Fitzslm mons's face he did not feel much disgruntled at his defeat. niXGSIDE MOTES. Hovr McCoy and Others Placed Their Money The Vltaarraph. NEW YORK, May 9. Kid (McCoy arrived at the ringside at 8:1$ p. m. He said: "Fitzslmmons should win Inside of five rounds. He Is too clever for this fellow.

Mrs. Fitzslmmons meant by this that Brady, having managed Corbett. who was loser in the Carson City a flair, would have his prodigy Jeffries beaten on this occasion. Kid MePartland made a bet of $500 to $300 that Fitzsimrnons would win.

"Well. I'll be !" It seemed as difficult for Jeffries's admirers to realize that the mighty had fallen and their favorite was the champion heavyweight of the world.

TO ENLIST VOLUNTEERS TUOSE IX THE PHILIPPINES MAY STAY IF THEY' 1VISU. General OtU Not Authorized to Enllit as 3Iany Natives as He Cbooies Scoots Only Needed. WASHINGTON. June 9. The Cabinet. In connection with the possible necessity of enllsUng a force of volunteers, to-day discussed a plan for the enlistment of several skeleton regiments in Manila from among the volunteers who desire to remain in the service, and the subsequent filling out of there regiments -with recruits enlisted In this country. General Otis, according to the plan, will be given authority to select the officers of these regiments from among the volunteer officers who are to be mustered out. The plan which commends itself to the favor of the members of "the Cabinet generally would form a nucleus of veteran officers and men seasoned to the climate and familiar with the work to be done. Such a force, leavened with veterans, doubt less would be immeasurably superior to a regiment of raw recruits, undisciplined and unaccllmated. The plan was only discussed In connection with future contingencies and did not reach the stage of action. The attorney general announced his opin ion that the army reorganization bill fixing1 the maximum strength or the army at 60,000 did not include the enlisted force of the horpita! corps, about 2,600 men, so that the enlisted force can be Increased by that number. There is no warrant for the statement that General Otis has been authorized to enlist as many natives as he chose and had cabled the War Department declining to take advantage of the oner. General ous was authorized to enlist some natie Filipinos as scouts and guides and has enlisted two hundred. His authorization did not contemplate the enlistment of bodies of native troops for service. Enlistments Ordered. CHICAGO. June 9. Capt. P. II.
