MAN-EATING SHARKS.
TO BE ON VIEW AT CENTENNMAL EXHIBITION. CAUGHT OFF AUSTRALIA WELLINGTON, _ A dozen huge maneating sharks caught oft the Australian coast will swim in a 00ft. tank in "Playland," the amusement parlv of the Centennial Exhibition. Mr. Henry Seff, manager of "Playland," said to-day that plans had been approved for securing this spectacular and unusual exhibit at a meeting of the exhibition executive officers to-day. The question of supplying such an aquarium with a constant flow of fresh seawater was discussed and found to be feasible. This was regarded as a major problem connected with the shark aquarium. It will probably be solved by piping w-ater from Lya'l Bay.
