REV. WILLIAM M. LANDIS.

  Word has been received of the sudden and unexpected death of Rev. 
William M. Landis, of this city, for many years a faithful and 
energetic minister of the Reformed church.  He moved to this city in 
the early part of this year and took up his residence with his son, at 
2512 Beale avenue.  A few weeks ago he went to Rebersburg, Centre 
county, on a visit and was in his usual good health until last Monday, 
when he was afflicted with paralysis of the stomach, from which he died 
early Thursday morning.  His funeral will take place at Rebersburg on 
Monday next.  Rev. Mr. Landis was much esteemed by his colleagues in 
the ministry.  He was a genial and kind hearted man and was well known 
throughout the Reformed church.  He is survived by his wife and three 
sons, one of whom is Rev. W. H. Landis, of Harrisburg.
