With an Edison phonograph and a large supply of high class records the six-year-old has created quite a sensation by playing piano accompaniments to the music of the talker. PRODUCT FOR RECORDS, Reported by Wm. H, Hunt, Our Consul at Tamatave, Madagascai Some Details Submitted That IVlay Interest. Wm. K. Hunt, United States consul in Tamalavp. Madagascar, in a recent report writes of a certain product obtained from the rafia palm of that island, which has the consistency of beeswa.-c and which has been thought to De suitable for talking machine records. Certain parties contemplate experimenting with the substance, and results will be awaited with interest. Regarding the securing of the product, Mr, Hunt says: "The process of extracting the wax is simple. The natives who gather the rafia fiber generally pitch iheir camp in the neighborhood of a rafia grove, to which they bring the leaves. The fiber is taken off and the leaves are thrown aside in large quantities. The wax is collected as follows: "First, by beating the dry leaves on a dry ma: or cloth and gathering the pellicles and white powder which fall from them. Then, after boiling these pellicles and powder, the wax thus formed is kneaded into cakes of any form. This wax, which is very pure, will probably be more highly valued than beeswax, although yet an entirely new product. It first made its appearance in the market place at Marovoay in October last. The curiosity of the merchants of Majunga being aroused, they bought the whole lot at hfty cents per pound and shipped it to France in order to ascertain its industrial and commercial value. "When the governor-general of Madagascar heard of the discovery he ordered a sample oi iwenty-five pounds to be forwarded to Doctor Heckel, director of the Colonial Institute at MarEeilles, who will make an analysis. "The labor of gathering the leaves can be ■reckoned a negligible quantity, as the wax is not the primary product taken from the tree, but a refuse product obtained from the leaves already cut down for the prepar.ition of rafia fiber. Sup posing that rafia wax turns out to have a valu ' about equal to beeswax, this means a yield ol' wax equal to three-fifths of the value of the rafia exported. Certainly a very valuable new resource of produce which the natives are likely to take to. In fact, the process implies no great difficult innovation, being merely the utilization of the refuse of an already well-establishe 1 and remunerative industry." ORDERS $92,620 WORTH OF GOODS.
