 From Yesterdays New York Tines.l
 All was hustle and activity yesterday morn ing in the American Institute building, in final preparation for the opening of the bench show of dogs at 10 o'clock As early as o'clock express wagons drove up to the side door on Sixty-third street, and city exhibit ors began to arrive with their pets in cabs or carried in their arms As each dog arrived his name and number in the catalogue were checked on the entry book, and he was then conducted to his stall. Here another num- bered tag of tin, in addition to the paper tag sent with him, was firmly attached to his collar with fine wire. The reason for this is that many dogs playfully gnaw their paper tags, thus destroying them and losing their identity in case of removal from their stalls During all the forenoon crates, boxes and baskets of every conceivable pattern were carried or pushed into Machinery Hall There were crates made to last for years, and with the names of the kennels show fly painted on the sides; crates vanished or painted or rough hewn for the occasion only; there were dry goods boxes fitted to suit, and there were huge wicker hampers like the linen baskets of mammoth summer hotel Many of these dog-carriages were conveniently if not luxuriously fitted inside with receptacles for food and water. As the dogs were removed from them these pack ages were stored in readiness for use again on

Sergeant Finley, in the Signal office 8 Washington, has in press paper which con tains tabulated statement of 600 tornadoes and some generalizations from their facts, with some suggestions as to the methods that ought to be pursued in the investigation of the storms. The 600 storms covered a period of S7 years and the whole country. Their examination leads to the conclusion that tornadoes occur most frequently in summer, and in the month of June. They have oc- cured, however, more frequently in April than in July, and in May and September than in August. Kansas is the State that has been most afflicted, and that notwithstanding the fact that ths period during which torna- does have visited it has been comparatively short. The. State has had 62 tornadoes from 1850 to 1881. No mention is made by Ser geant Finley of the Wallingford tornado.
 The latest mails from Australia describe the terrible heat and drouth which still pre- vailed at the time of their departure.
