FOOLED THE FRENCH
Spy Spends Three
Weeks in Camp at Paris.
Poses: as Joubert, French Military
- Air Pilot and Seeks Aviation
Work, But Is Finally Ex.
r posed and Arrested.

,Paris.-A German aviator has been
arrested in the Boulevard des ,ltalieps
after, having remained three weeks
in Paris, posing rs Joubert, a French
military pilot, end successfully defy
Ing detection by the French aviation
authorities. His success was due in
large measure to the fact that he
spoke French perfectly and closely re-
sembled the real Joubert. After his
arrest 1t developed that he had come
from Antwerp with papers that were
regular in all respects from the mill
tary authorities. He had driven into
Paris In q motorcycle side car.
On his arrival id Paris he told an
acceptable story }Sof his escape through
the German lines and showed his pa
pers, which, included q French pilots
certificate Of identification belonging
to the real Joubert. He also wore
%Joubert's uniform. Because Joubert
was not intimately known by any OF
the airmen in Paris, the impostor was
not exposed until he met an engineer
Of the Gnome motor. works, where he
had been sent to look over the mo.
tors of the machines that had been
allotted to him. ,g5S
The engineer had doubts Of the
mans identity and became confident
that he was merely m~asQuerading az
Joubert while the two were riding in
the Boulevard des Italiens. He in.
duced the German to step into 9 cafe
with him and there he called a police
official and caused his companions
arrest.
The adventurous German was
whisked away from a crowd which,
learning who the prisoner was, be.
gan to threaten his life. When ques:
toned by the police he admitted that
he was not the real Joubert,; but
claimed to be Joubert's brother, He
insisted that he had used the impos.
ture merely because he vas ambitious
to become a military pilot and
wished to be accepted speedily for
active service. When informed that
Joubert had no brother he was. non.
plused for a time. Then he sought to
create the impression that he was, an
insane Frenchman. However, the au.
thorities have nj doubt that he is 9
German spy. J
At latest accounts the prisoner had
not been shot, as the French are
anxious to learn frst Just how much
Information he has succeeded in fur:
nishing the Germans during his three
weeks stay in Paris and how he
managed to transmitit to them.
