M KLER0Y HEADS
 THIRD REGIMENT
IS REELECTED COLONEL WITH OUT OPPOSITION WORK ON NEW TARGET RANGE AT ANNIs- TON IS BEGUN.

Anniston, May 21-(Special)-Col w. H. McKleroy was yesterday reelected colonel of the Third regiment, Alabama opposition to his reelection is a signal recognition of Colonel McKleroy's service as commanding officer of the regiment for the past four years.
 It Is no exaggeration to say that Colonel McKleroy is perhaps the best colonel the Third regiment has ever had and has done more to place the regiment on its present high plane of efficiency than any predecessor. It is not thought that he will make any change in his staff.
 The votes of the line officers are all that are cast in such an election. They are forwarded to the adiutant general-in Montgomery and will be canvassed on May %.
 Work has already been started on the new target range of the Third regiment, Alabama National Guard in DeArmans field east of Tyler Hill. The range is being moved from its present location in the Fifth ward on account of the superior advantages of the new site, it being much nearer to the city, higher, and better drained than the present one, and also much larger and longer than the pres ent range being a full 1000 yards long.
 Twelve target frames will be installed in the pits, whereas there are only three in the present range The site is admir- ably adapted for the purpose by nature, being so level as to require little grading In the immediate vicinity of the range will be the fine new 1Shole golf course of the Country club, and the traps of the Anniston Gun club. The range is only short distance from the clubhouse of the Golf club, which will be used for the entertainment of visitors to the shoots which will be held. When completed Anniston will have the finest range in the state. The work has already been author ized by the adjutant general and will be rushed. ~-.

CHARLES NELSON BURIED.

Charles Nelson, who died Sunday
was buried yesterday from the Gra-
ham hall under the auspices of the
Western Federation of Miners. Rev.
G.. c. Hunting officiated at the hall
and cemetery. The deceased was the
first person to put up tent at
Riepetown and at times was called
the father of that place. IN 1905 he
squatted on lot there, put up a
tent and opened saloon. When he
first located he said 1t was the logi-
cal place for a town between Ely and
the mines and time has proven his
judgment to be correct. When the
ground on which Riepetown is locat-
ed was sold to the Ely Central Co.,
Joseph Pheby of that company gave
Nelson a deed to the lot he occupied.
