ACROSS THE TASMAN.
ANOTHER PROJECT.
Independent of the Auckland movement, steps have been taiken by a number of private citizens throughout the Dominion to subscribe a sum of money with a view to purchasing one of the ipost modern aeroplanes in which an attempt will be made, at a suitable time, to cross the Tasman Sea from Australia to New Zealand (says the Dominion). Those in .Wellington associated with the movement are disinclined at the moment to realise details for publication, but it is understood on good authority the total of the amounts subscribed to date is not very far short of the sum considered necessary for the purchase of the machine. At. all events the matter has so far developed that it is expected to be finalised very shortly, so that the flight can be arranged at an early date.
