When Dr. Mantle entered the province it was In the heat of summer, the coollrs carrying hla chairs were tired from the journey .and when they passed throuKh the streets of one of the cities tho car riers failed to warn "Make way for a chair," aa is the custom, but pushed roughly ahead, prodding the men In the streets with the sharp ends of the bamboo I'Oles. Immediately the call spread "foreign devils, foreign devils," when It was seen lhat the intruders were white. And were It not for the fact that Dr. Mantle had an escort of Human soldiers who In stantly stepped to the front and dis persed the threatening crowd, subsequent violence would probably have proved fatal to tho evangelist. In Petrograd Dr. Mantle ran afoul ot tho Russian secret police. While i-orPduct-Ing services Dr. Mantle spoke of liberty, meaning spiritual liberty. A secret police oiflcer present interpreted the meaning In a different manner and when Dr. Man tle made ready to leave that evenlnc he found his place surrounded by a squad of soldiers. The secret police thought him a bold and violent agitator with the result that they called out the reserves to make his arrest. Much Red Tape. "But my experiences procuring a re lease," said Dr. Mantle, "were the most remarkable. From 8 in the morning until 4 in the afternoon I was transferred from department to department of the police In the police buildlns. Gradually I worked my way upward from the first floor to the seventh, where the chief waa located. Each place I waa delayed on the average of onu hour and a halt. I never encoun tered so much red tape in my life. When I did ultimately reach the chief one glance ut my credentials proved to him a mistake had occurred and he ordered my instant release." Dr. Mantle is English and up to two years ago London was his home. He now resides in Louisville. Ky. The convention ot the Omaha Holiness association will continue until March 14.
