Canon Louis Breton of the Argenteuil church said: "This holy tunic was discovered by Empress (Saint) Ilelene In 300 A. D., about the same time she found the true cross. It remained In Constantinople until the Ninth century, when Empress Irene, who needed soldiers to fight the caliph, presented It to Charlemagne, the great king, who, in turn, made a gift of It to his daughter, Theodrada, benefactress of the priory of Argenteuil. Consequently, It has been in Argenteuil more than a millennium." Spie Swarming Around French Frontier Forts Paris. The recent arrest by French secret police of the most famous woman spy since the war, "La Belle Sophie," as she sought to smuggle a new French army rapid fire rifle across the German border draws public attention to the swarm of spies hovering around the new French frontier fortifications. "La Belle Sophie" Is the first of these spies arrested with proof of her guilt In her hands. Hundreds of others have been tagged and trailed ' among the fortifications, but Sophie alone has proved a rich arrest. Spohle had all the tricks of the Mata-Ilar- l school of women spies. She used her wiles to ensnare Rene Pies-toa lovesick French conscript soldier, and persuaded hlra to steal the new rifle and give It to her. ' Pleston played sick, hid the rlfie and finally delivered It to his enchantress. She was caught with the gun in an automobile when frontier guards evidently warned by counter spies, went through her belongings. Sophie Is In a military prison. The peacetime penalty foe a woman spy caught in the act of betraying a military secret Is long Imprisonment.
