IN THE DROME,
A FALSE MARTIAN RECEIVES
A CANING

Tain-l'Hermitage. -- The flying saucers made a victim last night, Mr. Neyret, farmer in Tain-L'Hermitage, whom one of his neighbors had mistaken for a Martian.

In the darkness, his neighbor, a winegrower, had seen a silhouette which seemed "extraordinary" to him.

"He's a Martian," he said to himself. He armed himself with a stick and struck redoubled hits on poor Mr. Neyret, who has an torn away ear and had to consult a doctor.
