At the age of 20, he enlisted in the 1st Cavalry at Fort Clark, Texas, and in 1893 fought in an Indian campaign. He was “paid off” in 1898 and re-en- listed in the Marines at the out- break of the Spanish-American war. Aboard the battleship Baltimore, he watched Admiral Dewey defeat the Spanish navy at Manila, and later marched into the city when it was bombarded and captured. The Boxer rebellion in 1900 found him in China, after a transfer from duty from the Philippines, and in 1910, after duty in Cuba, he went to Nicaragua.

A physician told newspaper men he had pronounced two persons dead, but their bodies had not been re- ported found by police. Doctors re- ported that several persons had suf- fered fractured skulls and were suf- fering from internal injuries. The blast wrecked the front of the store near 7th and E streets.
