A BRAVE PEASANT
MISTAKEN FOR A MARTIAN
RECEIVES A CANING
IN THE DROME

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

In the dark, his neighbor, a winegrower, had seen a silhouette which seemed "extraordinary" to him. "He is a Martian", he said to himself, he armed himself with a stick and struck redoubled blows on poor Mr. Neyret who has a torn off ear and has found himself obliged to consult a doctor.
