AMBASSADOR EXEMPT.
State Department Moves to Protect
 Russian Official at Trial.

Washington, April 1.-The state department is understood to be pre- pairing to call the attention of the senate labor committee to the usual diplomatic immunity of foreign am- bassadors in connection with the con- mittee's subpoena of Boris Bakhme- teff, the last accredited Russian am- bassador here to testify in its investi- gation of the affairs of Gen. Gregorie Semenoff.
 A protest against the committed s summons is understood to have been communicated to the department by embassy officials, and although no one at the department would express an opinion on the subject, the im- pression was given today that Mir. Bakhmeteff still might reasonably be regarded as a full fledged ambassador despite the fact that the Kerensky government which sent him here went out of existence five years ago.

PERIWINKLE BLUE
 WASEASTER COLOR
Pretty Combinations Seen in
 Annual Parade" Yesterday

PeriwinklA Blue. the dominating
 color of tho feminine sex, was much
 in evidence yesterday during the an-
 nual Easter parade" in thls city. The weather was perfect for such a display and when tho women folks looked out upon a bright sunshiny | day they did not lose much time in dressing for the display of their Fias- ter styles, There was no group com plete without tho periwintle blue and a veritable crescendo of color was seen along the main streets of New | Britain.
 The parade" commenced as church was closed. The feminine sex l slackcned their pace to Jet their | friends gaze upon their splendid col OTIS and to rejoice in seeing them selves reflected in the store windows as they passed slowly by. The .nap- per-" fingered trine longer than others, although . bit hungry, that she could be seen in all her splendor.
 The afternoon "paradc" was larger and more gala than that of the fore noon, as all the feminine sex came out strong. Red, of course, was seen great deal and pretty hats trimmed with this alluring color matched well with the periWinkle blue suit
 The skirts this year were of all lengths and there was no special au- thority which indicated that they were getting any shorter. In fact, some of the skirts were q trifle long, not too long, but a neat length which showed up milady's pretty periwnkle blue stockings, bought to match her suit. Flashes of other silken hose such as pearl grey, champagne and bright blue were also seen. The shoes were of various styles, mostly black and grey pumps with straps numbering three or four.
 Hats for the most part were seen in daring colors and some of the orig inal shapes with their gaudy colors were very pleasing to gaze upon. Rough straw hats were common with silk and satin trimmings in a decided majority. The only thing which was not periwinkle blue or of fleshy col or was the camera which the femin- inc sex carried. Yes, most all of the paraders had one that they might be snapped in their gay attire and re- member the day their Sweet peri winkle blue" gown was first worn.
 And, not to be left out, the men, many of them, stood on the corners watching the girls with interest as they strolled by. The men had on their usual staple style consisting of hat, suit, shoes, regular Sunday shirt with probably a new tie under their collar to usher in the Easter day. That indscribably different taste of desserts is merely the difference in the | navoring. Try Bakers Extracts adSt.
