Jfc "Pussyfoot" Johnson, of the American Anti-Saloon League, who is oonducting a prohibition campaign in Scotland, had a riotous reception ,at a prohibition meeting at Aberdeen. The police were obliged to draw truncheons in order to keep the crowd in order. Students of Sheffield University kidnapped Mr. Warner, secretary of the American students' temperance movement, who was attempting to address a large meeting. The lights in the hall were suddenly turned out and when they were turneti up the lecturer had vanished. The mystified audience found later that students had carried Warner to a motor car, thence to the Derbyshire moors, and loft him there to find his way back.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
