A JOKE SAVES A LIFE.
The Marshal of Sasser Saved by q
Board Chest Protector.


Albany, Ga. Nov. 13.-From a gentle
man who lives in Sasser, a small town on
the Columbus Southern railroad, in the
city to-day, the MORNING News cores
pondent learned of practical joke which
saved a mans life. c. A. Raglan is the
marshal of Sasser and is noted for his
fun-loving disposition. Saturday morn
ing he put the lid Of a tobacco box under
his clothes just over his breast and sew
eral of his friends were invited to hit him
as hard as they could drive. The invita-
ton was accepted by several persons
who were ignorant of the ex-
istence of the concealed board
and there were a number of bruised
knuckles and sprained wrists as a result
of the joke. Later on, and before he had
removed his board-shield, Raglan had oc-
casion to arrest a drunken negro, who, in
resisting arrest, drew his knife and at
tempted to carve the officer into mince-
meat Remarkable to relate, every thrust
of the knife struck the officers concealed
board-shield, which, no doubt saved his
life from the murderous brute, who was
finally knocked down and jailed.
