been i emitted fot good behavior. He
lost sixty-five pourds during his in
t'nrceiatlon, but, notwithstanding, he
Is In fairly good health.
The charge on which Joyce was Im

was heaid at Harrlsburg. Joyce was
convicted but the lmpiession mode on
the presiding Judge was such that ho
was given a my light sentence, with
out any linpilsoiimcnt. While on the
witness stnnel in this case Joyce madp
ctitaln statements, which it was found
out afterwards could not he subitantl
atpel, although It Is said they weie
made in good faith at the time He
was again piospputeel' bv Coyle, this
time for perjury. With tho 'under
standing that sentenee was to be (sus
pended, ho pleadcel gulitv to this charge
and was sentenced to tlie penitentiary
Hx-Senator Coyle, who hi ought thes"
