PERRY RETURNS Shown KITeelH of Philippine CniiipnlKH, lint Kxpeclx Teiuperntc .one tn Itcitnrc Ills llenlth. Captain A. W. Perry, formerly stationed In this city, who lsinow on his way from tho Philippine islands to Fort Ethan Allen, where ho will bo stationed with tho Eleventh cavalry, Is stopping at tho Omaha club, recuperating from tho effects of his campaign In tho tropics. Tho captain would hardly bo recognized by his former acquaintances, as from an erect and sprightly officer weighing 1S3 pounds ho has become a convalescent from Illness, weighing 103 pounds, and has per mitted n beard etrcaked with gray to cover his face. The captain Is feeling In excel lent spirits and will only require a suffi ciently long stay In thi temperate zone to bring him back to his former vigor. Cap tain Perry was among thoso who first went to the Philippines connected with tho quartermaster's department. He remained thero until June, when ho left Maulla for tho United States. Speaking of the conditions on the Islands ho said ho did not believe tho rumored policy concentrating tho troops in tho larger towns was the proper one for tho Islands, as smnll bodies of soldiers scat tered ovor tho country would havo n greater moral effect on tho Inhabitants, who, for nil of tho suppression of open hostilities, aro far from becoming loyal subjects of tho United States. .,One reason for thn condition Is their experience of many hun dred years under Spanish rule, during which they only received lenient treat ment when Spnln was too weak to sup port a strong government, and they look upon tho leniency of the United States as a symptom of weakness. The presence of only a small body of troops has a tendency to dispel this Illusion. In tho opinion of the captain it will rc- qulro tho presenco of Boldlcrs for many years on tho Ulands to suppress outrago and Insurrection. Tho natives are sus ceptiblo of development and are In many Instances making rapid progress. FORMERLY AN OMAHA MAN W. I.,yle Illekcy, Ice King of Knnsnn Cnpltnl, 1 AVell Iteiuenthcrcd In Thin City.

Tho constitutional convention at today's session went forward rapidly with tho electoral bill, sixty-one articles out of a total of 180 having now been npproved. Tho principal change In tho original text la In the number of voters required in or der to proposo a candidate for election. After considerable discussion it was do cided that In the province of Havana a candldato for tho offlco of representative, governor, provincial legislature, senatorial elector or presidential elector must bo pro posed by no fewer than 500 voters; In the provinces of Santiago and Santa Clnrn by at least 300; tn tho province of Matanzas by 200 and in tho provinces of Puerto Princlpo and Plnar del Itlos 100.

Tho chango was proposed by Scnor San gullly, who contended that to leave tho project as It stood originally would place tho nomination of candidates entirely tn tho hands of political parties, which would mean that cliques would rule the elec tions, as Independent candidates would not bo ablo to collect so many voters to pro pose them, owing to their not having or ganizations.
