29 min. “The Garden of the World,” which is the closing number of the new repertoire of dances given by this couple, is undoubtedly one of the most pretentious and picturesque dance offerings vaudeville has ever seen. It is an allegorical story of the war told in pantomime dance and the simplicity of the story and the clever manner in which it is presented make it so thoroughly plain that the audience has no difficulty in following it. The three preceding numbers are also beautifully staged and executed and the act, besides being the best Adelaide & Hughes have ever presented, is a headline feature that fully deserved the tremendous hit it scored.
