EPOCH IN IRISH HISTORY,

ton of a monument to the memory Of
the brave Wexford insurgents who fell
lat Vinegar Hill in the disastrous year
of 1913, says the Catholic Columbian,
| The incident mentioned has a deep
and tragic significance for the people
of Ireland.
This monument now identifying the
principal square of the historic town
of Enniscorthy, artistic in design and
workmanship, is not only historically
accurate but peculiarly symbolical of
the twin ideals of patriotic Irish senti.
ment-Faith and Fatherland-for up-
on the pedestal stands the figure of
an armed Irish peasant, with that of
priest Father John Murphy at his
back, one hand on the peasant's
shoulder, the other pointing out the
course to be taken. But this is not
all.
1t is not merely in the artistic
beauty of this monument. nor in it's
symbolism, that lies it's deepest signif1-
canoe for the Irish race. 1t marks an
epoch in Ireland's centuried strug.
gle, for liberty. 1t stands mute re-

F. A. TORRANCE & SON.
General Merchandise.

While considerable space in this re-
view is given to the new industries
needed to build up the town of Worth
ington, at the same time due credit
must be given to the older business
men who have been laboring for years
to make the town what Sit is. Promi-
nent among these is the name of f. "A.
Torrance, who came to town. about
thirty years ago, and later entered
into partnership with his brother, H.
3. Torrance in the general merchandise
business. About twelve years ago F..
A. Torrance became the head of the
establishment, and at present in part
nership with his son, R. H. Torrance,
under the firm name Of F. A. Torrance
& Son, is conducting one of the
towns largest mercantile establish
ments, located on the corner of Tenth
street and Second avenue, with a floor
space of nearly 1900 square feet, and
employing to 10 people. When a
merchant has been established in a
locality as long as this and his store
maintains a PROMINENT place in the
community, it is a pretty sure indica-
tion that his dealings have been along
straightforward lines, with dependable
goods.
In this store is to be found COM
plete stock of general merchandise.
The stock includes dry goods of every
description, mems and boys clothing
and furnishings, shoes, groceries and
provisions in short, it is several we'll
stocked stores all in one. It is known
as a store of fair dealing and fair
prices, and has large patronage both
from the town and surrounding coun-
try. -
R. H. Torrance, the junior member
of the firm, is active in the manage
ment of their extensive business and
is known as one of the towns most
energetic and aggressive young bust
ness men. He is strong believer in
the modern business methods both in
public and private business and is
demonstrating the success of these
methods in his own firm. He also
finds considerable time to devote to
public affairs and is at present serv-
ing the village in the capacity of

unusually large stock of books and
stationery, and line Of choice con.
fectionery. The prescription depart
ment is very large, and as may be
judged from Mr.. Morland's wide ex-
perience, the work of this branch of
the business receives the most care
full attention in every detail. J
AS an indication of Mr.. Morland's
standing in his line of business in the
state, it may be mentioned that he
is now serving his fifth consecutive
term as president of the Minnesota
State Board of Pharmacy. r.
Mr.. Morland is not only very sue
cessful in his private business, but
devotes much time to all enterprises
that make for the towns advance
ment He is president of the CONNER
cial club and is at the head Of the
Lyceum association and is also serv-
ing on the library board, and the bust
ness principles that have contributed
to the success of his own affairs, care
full attention to details and absolute
accuracy in all transactions, are prov
ing equally valuable in his public SER
vices. Ia"

interests of the place for the past
twenty-five years.
Mr.: Lewis first appeared in business
in the store of his father, w. S..
Lewis, who conducted grocery store
here for many years. Both afterward
retired from business, but Harry B.
Lewis later re-engaged in the grocery
business in his present location on
Tenth street, where for eleven. years

ness and faithfully served a large list

try. His stock consists of staple and
fancy groceries, fruits and vegetables.

tees, spices, extracts and in fact every-
thing that would be looked for in an

One Of Worthingt on's most promi-

established here in the drug business
for the past ten years. His activities
in his line Of business extend over q
period of more than thirty years and
cover varied experience in the coun-
tries Of Scotland, England, Ireland,
Canada and the United States. Pre-
vious to his coming here, he had
charge of one of the best retail stores
in Chicago.
Mr.. Morland's store is spoken Of by
travelling men and others who are well
informed, as one of the best in south
ern Minnesota. His furniture and fix
lures are neat and attractively ar
ranged, and he has a large stock Of
high grade drugs, pharmaceuticals and
fine chemicals, together with all the
newer remedies in ordinary use, as
well as a very complete stock Of pro-
prietery remedies, druggists sundries
