beyson, of this city, who has been
Il student Of the occult, says that he
recently took trip to Mars while in
a trance, and says he is ready to do
the same thing again before an au-
dience of scientists. He leaves his
body behind. and only his spirit goes
through space. In describing two
wonderful races of men he found in
Mars he says:
One race was so large that I only
came to their knees. while another
only came 10 my knees. None wore
clothing, and all we're covered with
hair. The large species had huge
ears, a nose like lion and only one
eye in the middle of the forehead
1.-THE little men had web feet and
lived in holes in the ground, while
the large ones lived in houses built
of rocks. The little ones could walk
UP perpendicular walls, as IL they
were flies. They had no nose, but
there was hole in each cheek.
Everything seemed to be made I'm
serpentine form, even the roads.
Through the equatorial belt Of the
planet was wide belt of water.
probably nine miles across. Some
of the animals were green.
Il saw many of the big men work
ing with a big mahine, which cast
light on to transparent rocks, reflect
Ing 1t far into space and nearly to
the atmosphere Of the earth. When
| approached Mars it looked like a
ball of fire."
