| FAMOUS CLOCK PEDDLER.

Christian Long, whose career as o
clock peddler, evangelist, legislative
lobbyist, and millionaire made him
famous in Pennsylvania, died at his
home, in Shippensburg, as announced
in yesterdays WORLD, aged about
seventy-seven. & He began work in
the Cumberland Valley as an exhorter.
In this he gained acquaintance with
the farmers in that section, which he
used to excellent purposes when he
travelled over the same district as fid-
dler and clock peddler. One Of his
faverite1 schemes, says the New York
Sun, was to visit a farmers house in the
evening and entertain the family with
his fiddle, and before leaving trade
one Of his clocks for Cumberland Val
ley Railroad stocks when that compa-
ny was verging on bankruptcy. He
obtained many shares in this way at25
cents a share. When he decided to
stop peddling clocks his power was SO
great that he dictated to the board of
directors and president OF the railroad.
His holdings in Cumberland Valley
stock now are worth a quarter Of a
million dollars, and his entire wealth is
estimated at $4,000, 900. AS a lobbyist
at Harrisburg Long played a promi-
nent part and was successful worker.
Mr.. Long Vowed wealth only for the
power it gave him. He lived in a di-
lapidated house and ate only molasses
and bread nearly all the years of his
life. When the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company began to reach out for ALI
ances with other roads, such as the
Cumberland Valley and the Northern
Central, Long came into prominence.
He made the bargain for nearly the
entire right of way along the Phila-
delphia and Erie Railroad, scheme
which for a long time came near
swapping the Pennsylvania. He did
much to kill the South Penn Railroad
| in the interest of the Pennsylvania,
and he took prominent part in. the
contest that elected Austin Corbin
president of the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad. - Hagerstoacn Globe.
