BELGIUM WORLDS FAIR.
Will Open at BRUSSELS April, 1910 /;
viii Last Six Months.

Brussels, Belgium-In April, 1910,
the great international exposition will
be opened at Brussels and will last
for six months.
Geographically Belgium occupies
the central position among the great
industrial and commercial nations of
Europe, England, Germany and
France. Her industries and exporta-
lions, compete with these countries
the world over, and through Belgium's
great port, Antwerp, large amount
of the products of the southern part
of the United States is distributed
over the continents of Europe.
During the six months of this expo
sition the captains of industry and
commerce of all nations will visit
Brussels. The south has many indus
tries which should be represented at
this fair, notably the different prod
ucts Of cotton seed, as well as many
ingenius and useful inventions. These
would make interesting exhibits.

Muskogee, Okla.-At midnight Sun
day the law removing the govern

acres of Indian lands in eastern Okla
shOma went Into effect.
Every real estate Office In that part
of the new state was crowded with
anxious buyers and sellers of land;
money changing hands by the hun
dreds of thousands; agents were busy
corraling the allottees that have been
in captivity for some time past;
leases were taken on land that was
not bought, and actual cash passed
from hand to hand, making the night
one of the most exciting in years in
Oklahoma. Every. one strived to get
the first chance at the property.
The removal means that nine MIL
lions of the 20,00Go0O acres of Indian
land in forty counties of eastern Okla
honda, which part was formerly In
'dian territory, becomes saleable.
The fight of the. white man to pro-
cure the Indians lands began the mo-
ment the Indian allotments were
made, and%it has been pushed ever
since For month agents of real
estate companies have been rounding
up the Indians and negro allottees.
One buyer entertained number of
Indians and negroes here for three
days, the only condition imposed be-
ing that they do not leave their
rooms or allow any one to enter.
