Honored by Millions.

The total admissions to the Worlds Fair
were 100000; OF this number approxi-
mately 100000 were officers exhibitors.
concessionaries and employees; 5000 900
were residents OF st. Louis and 10000, 900
nom sidents. Estimating that each non
resident visited the fair at least four
times, II would appear that 2.50O,000 people
came 10 st, Louis in the seven months and
during this same period more than 1885,
900 people passed through the Anheuser-
Busch plant Never before has an estab-
lshment been honored by so many. WISH
tors and II Is safe TO say that at least one
half the people who came TO St. Louis
ayailed themselves of the opportunity TO
inspect the greatest plant Of It's kind in the
1904 was the banner year in the his
tory Of the Anheuser- Busch Brewing
Assn, its sales being l,365,7ll barrels Of
beer, showing an increase OF 163949 barrels
The latter as an annual output would eX-
ceed that OF the majority Of the larger
breweries Of this country. This phenome-
nal increase is the more remarkable. be-
cause the past year. owing TO the long win
ter and abnormally cool summer was a
decidedly OFF year for the beer business.
The total gain OF the beer output for the
United States for 1904 was about 100000
barrels, thus proving Anheuser- Busch's In
crease OF i6s,949 barrels 10 be about 20
per cent OF that OF all breweries combined.
such an exceptionally good showing can

Christian Priesthood He said in part:
sThe first mass of Christian priest
is most important, not only to him out
TO the people. 1t establishes the fact
cf the continued presence OF Christ
among men through the priesthood
which he established for the fulfillment
of his mission on earth. The golden
thread of the priesthood Is found IN
the warp and woof of the history OF
mankind from the beginning of the
world. 1t connects itself with the
thought of sin, and the promise Of
atonement.
"Christ chose his apostles and con-
stituted them as priests, sending them
forth to offer sacrifice, to baptize, to
forgive sins, to teach to the world MS
truth with his authority. He invested
them with all the power which he him
self possessed when he said. AS the
Father sent me SO also send you ana
L am with you until the consummation
OF time
"The priest is an evangelical man
with a message of truth to the world.
He is a sacrificial man with authority
to offer sacrifice for the people. He
is a sacramental man ordered to dis
pense the grace of God through the
sacraments which Christ established.
1.-THE world has been led to suspect
the ministry of man in things of re-
ligion. Much has been written and
said of the beauty of the priesthood;
much has also been written and SAID
against it. No one, it would seem, can
study Christ without recognizing that
he is the great high priest, and no
one. it seems 10 me, can study the de-
velopment of Christ's mission without
realizing that 1t was Christ's design
that his priesthood should be handed
down to man.
THE failures of the priesthood have
been magnied, yet the failures have
been infinitely small when compared
with the successes.
Bishop Conaty spoke directly to the
newly ordained priest ard reminded
him of the long line of noble men who
form the priesthood of the past and
present and said that no title of royal
ty could be compared with the title
which came to him by his ordination.
He bade him initiate the noble lives
of the devoted priests of the Christ
ian church who, either as apostles or
as simple self-sacrificing pastors of
souls, lived and died in the service OF
God and of the people. He bade him
keep the high ideals of a sanity
