FLIGHT AND PURSUIT.

Story

tuesday, presumably Of unrpquted love,
was resident of this city from 1887 to
TWO months ago. During the latter part
OF the time he was Tax Collector for the
Linda Vista irrigation district, and while
biling that position he became acquainted
with Miss Brown, who came to San
Diego about year ago from Texas. The
lady was nearly % years of age, beautiful,
highly educated and refined, and an ac-
complshed musician. She was also pos
sessed of considerable wealth, having
piano OF her own. and diamonds to the
value, it is said, of $1,000; and she loaned
money in considerable sums through a
local firm and dressed elegantly, though
In quiet taste. She was a Canadian, and
Ieft sister in Texas TO come here for her
health, as she was rather delicate. While
here she went in the best society.
Towner met her one day while out
horseback riding and the two became good
friends at once. the friendship speedily
rlpeniag into an infatuation which seemed
TO be mutual. at least, for time.
Z Later, it seems. that Miss Brown learned
more of Towner's ways, and finding much
IN his nature directly antagonistic to her
own tried to break off all relations with
him. Each had rooms in the fremont
and they were frequently seen together.

them while here, the only suspicious cir

Brown was divorced in Texas, but it is now

The lady finally left the city, it was SUM-
posed to escape from the attentions of
Towner. who had threatened to commit
suicide If she did not marry him. Towner
in some way learned of her " whereabouts
and followed her to San Bern ardino. San
francisco and thence East. She even
changed her name several times to throw
him off the track. The couple were heard
from some days ago in Chicago and there
was the same story of flight and chase, and
