| His parents were Pantaleon Leiva Ca
Jenna and Hilaria Buitemea, the latter,
his mother. being known yet through
that country as the Sibyl. The bap-
tismal waters of Catholicism from the
hands of an adventurous Italian mis-
~sionary, Father Romanani, rested on
his head when q boy in the town of
Navajoa. From earliest boyhood Ca
jeme took to the chase, and refused
to work on q farm when he could
scour the deer forests with his bow
and arrows. When Is years of age
he ran away from home, and from
that day his life was a constant, rest
less march, a bohemian existence. He
entered the service of MIR. j. K.
Bourse, an America miner at Alamos,
a town on the projected Alamo5 and
Mazantlan railroad. Wine and women
soon drew their chains about him, and
fired by jealousy and drink he drew
his first human blood by stabbing
Abraham Jollman. who was Mr..
Brouse's steward. He then fled.
In 1872, when the governor of Sono-
ra, Ignacio Pesqueri, started out to
assist the governor of the neighboring
state of Sinaloa against the revolution
headed by the bloody Marquee, CAFE
me joined the state troops. During
the campaign he gave proofs of great
valor and of uncommon military skill,
and was made a colonel in the Mexi-
can army, During leisure moments
of the campaign he learned to read
and write, for as he never would go to
school, he did moi eve know the alpha
bet when he entered on this exciting
period of his life. When peace was estab
lished Cajeme returned to his home,
preceded by an uncommon fame. At
that time Julio Moroyoqui, nicknamed
the Jaguar, ruled the Yaquls. He
was one of the most sanguinary caci-
qes of Mexican history, and known as
the American Nero. Moroyoqui on
firmed the rank of colonel earned by
Cajeme in the government army, and
the latter o bent his extraordinary
talents to REFRESHING disorders in the
government of the former. Little by
little Cajeme acquired popularity, and
the Indian camps soon became too
narrow a theater for two such men.
One day Cajeme with ten picked men
surrounded the palace of the Jaguar,
and going in assassinated him,
and was Immediately proclaimed
his successor, a place he has since
held.
While in Navaiao he solicited in
marriage the hand CT adark-eyed belle
of that town, the daughter of a rich
planter. His suit refused, Cajeme
reiterated in good ORDER" and went
back to the Yaqui river, thinking that
time would ameliorate his suffering.
Afterward he made up his mind to see
the girl, Juana Narvaez, and he start
ed on a dark night and in disguise to
visit her. On the way he was ambush
ed by r. j. Castro, a brother chief, who
was his rival for the possession of this
Mexican Helen. Cajeme proved to be
a successful Paris. Single-handed he
killed Castro and three of his men, be-
sides wounding another, and arrived,
bleeding from several wounds. at the
feet of Juana Narvaez. She fled from
her home ID his company. Since that
time Cajeme has led a fugitive life,
with his band of Indian warriors, and
has defied the power of the Mexican
republic, among the mountains and
marshes of Sonora.

on several occasions by his fleet run
