We had the opportunity to meet Mr. Casimir Szymura from Aniche, who, as we told, was the lucky seer of a flying saucer occupied, according to him, by four Martians!
Lately, some of his rather skeptical friends have gathered to hear his story. He did so with good grace. The final of his odyssey was even sweet.
"The Martian's handshake electrified me, he said, and gave me back a vigor, a quickness of mind that makes me another man now."
- About billiards for example as an honest player as I was, I have become unbeatable.
Challenges were immediately launched and for a few hours Casimir played as a great champion. A great ace, whose name we will not mention, was the only one to beat him.
"This is not surprising, it was reported to us, he is also magnetized."
