Joyce is pre paring to make his way back to civiliza tion and take up bis residence in Minne apolis, where he is to succeed Bishop Fowler. He was assigned to make the in teresting trip which he has almost con cluded by the last general conference of the Methodist church. Since he sailed from America he has traveled more than 20,000 miles and has made a thorough ex amination of the missionary work which is being done by the Methodist church in -China, Japan and Korea. Bishop Joyce ia accompanied by his wife,' and although theVorthy couple are somewhat advanced in age tbey seem to have stood the fatigues and . inconveniences of travel most admirably.- They are now at Shanghai, but are soon to start for home, returning through the Holy Land and Egypt. Few prelates of any church have ever made such a comprehensive investigation of missionary work in such an extended territory as has Bishop Joyce. Of the .719 regular active Methodist missionary work ers in the three countries he personally met the greater number, although to do it be bad. to undertake some journeys from which many a younger and less enthusiastic man would have shrunk. One of his lon gest and most interesting trips was' up the Yang-tse-Kiang, one of the great rivers of China, for 1,500 miles he went by steam er arid then came 500 miles on that popu lar, but unclean institution, the Chinese houseboat. When he left the waterway, it was to get into a sedan chair, which per, epiring coolies carried for several hundreds of miles.
