The Aeroplane in New Zealand.

An aeroplane known at present only to the inventors as the "Progress" aeroplane. but destined shortly for a wider circle of acquaintance, is being constructed in the workshops of Mr. Peter Ellis, Wellington. The work is so far advanced that trials of the machine may be expected in the open in the course of a few weeks. The inventors are Messrs. Forrester, Ellis, Baldwin, and Rayward, and many original ideas are, we understand, embodied, particularly in regard to starting from a standing position on the ground.
