Foot aai,.

The local team went down before the
Kenilworth Wheelmen team last Saturday,
by score Of 26 to o. The local team were
clearly outclassed by their heavier oppo-
nents. The visitors put up great game,
and had everything their own way from
the kickoff until time was called in the
last half
The Kenilworth team was much heavier
than the locals. but that did not lessen
their activity as they could give their
lighter opponents lessons in getting around
the field, and grasping every opportunity
which presented itself
The visitors scored the first touchdown
about five minutes after the game started,
from which Hoffman kicked goal. Two
other touchdowns ended the scoring in the
first half. Hoffman kicked goal from
one making the score 16 to 0.
With defeat staring them in the face the
Woodbury. boys braced up wonderfully in
the second half, and the two touchdowns
scored by Kenllworth were not as well
earned as those in the first halt.
One was the result of lack of head
work on the part of Freed. The ball was
going over the line for a touch back when
he grabbed the ball and was downed in his
tracks about three yards from Woodbury's
goal. He partly redeemed himself, how
ever, BY making one of the prettiest plays
Of the game. The ball was passing back
for punt, when it was blocked by
an opponent. but he made kick
at it while it was flying through the air
and made good long kick.
Oliphant played good game for Wood
bury, and he was about the only one who
was not outplayed by his opponent. White
played fairly good game at quarter, con-
sidering it was his first game, and kept up
his reputation as strong defensive. player.
Two touchdowns and one goal was the
result of the scoring in the second half
making the score 26 to 0, which is the
largest score ever made against the Wood
bury team for many years. Following is

The zane-shaw Murder.

The murder Of Mrs. Emma Zane and
Mrs. Sallie Shaw, mother and daughter, al
their hons PAP Pine street, Camden, last
Wednesday morning, has been the topic Of
conversation and its solution the centre Of
interest, in South Jersey during the past
week. The family consisted of the ladies
above named and Eli Shaw. son of Sallie
Shaw, who were the only occupants of the
house on that night Young Shaw is a
young man, about % years of age, and is
employed as book-keeper by the we'll
known firm, Taylor Bros, Second and
Market streets, Camden. who has born a
high reputation in business and social
circles, being an active member Of the NJ.
E. church and the young peoples societies
thereof, and member of the Y. M. c. A. of
Camden.
The first news of the murder was given
by Shaw, at 4.30 Wednesday morning, cry
ing wildly from window for help and
that murder had been committed. The
neighbors and police were soon on the
scene, who found young Shaw, with an old
rusty pistol in his hand, and both women
dying from bullet wounds in the head, in
each case only one shot was fred, and in
each case the fatal bullet had entered the
side of the head above the ear, and pierced
the brain.
The pistol in Shaw's hand was %
calibre, and had not been fred The bull
lets, when extracted, were found to be 80
calibre.
Shaw slept in the third story front room,
and he said he was aroused by a noise and
taking his pistol went down stairs. His
mother was in the lower room, and had
also been aroused. Going into a rear room,
they found bureau drawer open; shot
was fred and his mother fell, and he rush
ed to window and called for help
Shawis aged grandmother was afterward
found in her room, seated beside her bed,
dead. Mrs. Shaw died just after being ad-
mitted to Cooper Hospital, never having
spoken.
This story young Shaw repeated to the
authorities with great accuracy, at several
interviews.
The police and detectives at once began
an investigation. They found no evidence
of burglars; it was recalled that there was
no smell of powder in the house when first
entered; Mrs. Zane's will, under which
young Shaw was to inherit two houses at
the death of his mother, Mrs. Shaw, came
10 light; at the bottom of the smoke fiue,
in the cellar, which runs through young
Shaw's sleeping room, a 80 calibre pistol,
with two chambers empty, was found; the
chimney hole in ShaH's room was open
and chimney SCOT was found on the sleeve
of Shaw's night shirt. On this circum-
stantial evidence young Shaw was arrested
on Saturday. charged with the murder of
his mother and grandmother, and is now
confined in Camden Jail. He has retained
Assemblyman Harry Scovel as counsel.
Shaw is well-known in Woodbury., and
was to have been married last Saturday to
Miss Mabel Nelson, of German street, this
city. He is described as slender, timid-
even cowardly young man-and is just
nicely recovered from a severe attack of
typhoid fever
