Hearst. of New York, president of the National Association of Democratic Clubs, to contribute s dollar for every dollar that Is given to the Democratic campaign fund, la puzzling politicians. It has been the understanding since his meteoric appearance In public life that he had an Immense fortune, but this latest proposition. made after Bryan had been Introduced to the national convention of Democratic clubs yesterday afternoon, la s surprise even to those who have been watching his career. The Democratic leaders of this State, who have lately felt the need of more money, are greatly encouraged, and about the State committee rooms the offer and the effect It may have was freely discussed.While the liberality of Hearst Is pleasing to his party, many of the ^shrewder politicians are Inclined to question his motives. They are asking each other what reward he expects to r*ap. and the theory I* being advanced that Hearst has an eye on th* presidency of the United States in 1304. and that he is now using his great fortune to par* hi* way to that position.Politicians also recall that Hearst has been Investing thousands in the National Association of Clubs, and that by doingassociation or t iuds. and tnat ny doing so he has l«cn placing himself In cloae touch with a larfe element In his party. It Is also remembered that Hryan has avowed that hs will not run again If he Is elected, and If he Is not. It Is not likely that he will be asked to make a third race. This would be Hearst's opening, and after his ingratiating himself with hts party, as he Is now doing, it is reasoned that the party will not b* in a position to Ignore hi* demand for recognition.The fact that Hearat did not attendthe convention of club* la atlM wondered at Many believe that he was here and that he refused to reveal himself. Some of the men who have been Intimately associated with him have tried to create the Impression that Hearst Is an extremely bashful young man and that he remained away to avoid notoriety.A COCHRAN INCIDENT.HIb Answer to a Challenge From tn#Galleries.A man In one of the galleries «t Tomlinson Hall gave the crowd, last night, a chance for n wild exhibition of enthusiasm. and Bourke Uockran. the orator, an opportunity to appear in a character in which he la seldom seen.

No effort will be made to attain any great hlght. nor distance, and It Is possible that the great ship will not get more than a few hundred yard* from the earth, but the conduct of the ship after being in the air some time will be closely observed.Some Idea of the great size of the balloon may be had from the fact that It Is over 262 feet In circumference and will hold over 282.600 cubic feet of gas. Andrew's balloon, which held the record for size, held ‘only 176,500 cubic feet of ga*.
