Atlanta Ca, Dec. 30-The famous Hill
ton trophy, after many vicissitudes in be-
ing surrendered by the District Of Column
bia team to the Savannahians, was finally
delivered safely into the hands of the
state of Georgia to-day. After It has been
allowed to remain on exhibition here for
awhile it viii be sent on 10 Savannah TO
remain with the victors until some other
team wrests it from them.
Maj. Frank Galloway. the governors
private secretary, received the trophy from
the express agent this morning, in the
absence of Capt. Brown, assistant adju-
tant general.
There was some surprise at the dmen-
sons of the prize. As packed it weighed
400 pounds and a half dozen porters were
required to unload it. The trophy was
made in 1873. and the experiences it has
had have left upon il marks of age and
wear. II is more imposing than beautiful,
though in every feature a prize worthy
of being proud Of When placed in posi-
ton, standing on a massive tripot ii is
ten feet high. Above the great shield
rests an eagle with out-sprcad wings.
over The upper edge are wreathed two
branches of oak. In the center Is an en-
bossed scene Of a primitive buffalo hunt.
Madly charging amid the herd are mount
ed redskins. hunting with spear and bow.
On each side and 10 the bottom are af-
fixed plates commemorative of the victo-
ries of the various stale teams who have
held the trophy during the past
twenty years. These plates are cast in the
likeness of scalplocks, to accord with the
design in the center of the piece. From
the lower edge the scalplocks form pend
ant. Around the upper rim in raised let
ters of silver is the inscription Military
and Naval Challenge Trophy The tro-
ply bears plates commemorative of victo-
ries by New York, Pennsylvania Massa-
chusetts and the District of Columbia.
New York held the trophy two years,
Pennsylvania one year. Massachusetts
was victorious during four consecutive
years, while the District of Columbia held
it from 1890 to 1897, when it was won by
Georgia
