celebrated at st. Augustine Chapel,

in order.
Several years ago Mr.. Stevenson
met Miss Clonan while resident of
Australia, and was impressed at the
time, which budded into full blown
attachment when he recently met her
again in this city while she was on
her way around the world, and he
persuaded her to change from a
tourist to resident.
Mr.. Stevenson is the son of James
b. Stevenson, of the Sydney harbor
trust, and has been in the Hawaiian
Islands for about seven years. and of
late years doing creditable newspaper
work on the daily papers of this city.

rising that brought his people into
tragic prominence about thirty years
ago:
The branches Of the Ute "nation"
were scattered over large sections OF
Utah. Colorado and other states. Ouray
and his tribe lived in Colorado. They
were more or less at peace with the
white settlers. Ouray, who was rather
well educated, had gone several times
to Washington to urge his tribesmen's
rights. Nathan c. Meeker. the local
Indian agent, managed to dispense
justice on the reservation and was
thought to have won bis red wards
love and absolute trust.
Forecasts Of Trouble.
Colorado was becoming more and
more thickly populated by white men.
Land that had once been practically
free to all corners began to take on
much higher value. Settlers grumbIed
that the Ute reservation was too large
and that so much good ground would
be In better use II parcelled out among
white men than under native owner

ton must soon OF late be cut down.

over with Ouray and. with the chiefs
approval. to have suggested plan for
easing the coming blow to the Utes.
The Utes whether inspired by

were hunters, like their ancestors. not
mere farmers. They rebelled against

seemed imminent. He asked that SOL
