Snakes Eyes Always Omen.

One of the most curious facts with
regard to snakes is that their eyes
are never closed. Sleeping or wax
ing, alive Or dead, they are always
wide open. This is because there are
no eyelids. The eye is protected only
by a strong scale. which forms part
of the epidermal envelope, and is cast
off in a piece With that every time
the reptile molts. This eyeplate is as
clear and transparent as glass, and
allows the most perfect vision, while
at the same time it so hard and tough
as to perfectly protect the delicate
organ within from the thorns and
twigs among which, in flight from enc
mics or in pursuit Of prey, the rep
tile SO often hurriedly glides, as any
close observer Of the habits Of the
snake can readily discover.

LAYING BRIDGE CABLE.
Men Who Need a Steady Head and
Firm Hand.

The wOrkmen on the cables follow
closely after the builders Of the iron
roadway. These men are engaged in
more perilous employment,if anything,
than the former, says Godey's. They
climb nimbly up TO the very summit Of
the huge towers. and then, without
fiinching. proceed TO descend the in
clined cables. 1t makes the spectators
below tremble for them. so dangerous
is the descent, but the workmen have
no fear, else they would be unified for
the duty required Of them. After slid
ing down the cable a dozen feet they
stop and turn around and face the
towers. The men working the der
rick slowly swing out to them the end
OF a cable about three inches in diam

by means of a small hand pulley and
rope redhot band Of steel, which the
cable-wOrkers seize with their pincers
and clasp around the large cable, on
which they are resting Then, while
the steel is still hot and malleable, the
small cable. with its md secured in a
thick bolt of steel. is brought into posi-
ton and the end welded into the red
hot steel band encircling the main
cable. The workmen pound and forge
away hammering. twisting and bend
ing the metal before il cools off. The
welding must be done rapidly. and the
workmen have no time to stop and
think Of the dangerous position in
which they are placed. Probably the
only support they have comes from
their legs, which they wind tightly
around the cable. as they swing their
arms and upper part of the body with
violent eXertiOn. When this cable Is
forged into its place the wOrkmen take
a few moments of rest and then slide
down TO the next joint. where the same
operation is repeated. Cable after ca
bic is attached in this way, until there
is a regular triangle of steel work and
dangling cables, looking for all the
world like a spiders web. But there
is order in this colossal spiderweb such
as never existed in the homes Of the
| insect that Weaves the web III our
homes and woods. Gradually one part
of the bridge after another is finished,
and when the false work OF scaffolds
is removed the structure stands out in
all the beauty of its finished state. The
bridge builders must not only be skill
ed in their work. but they must nave
the hardihood and daring OF the sailor,
for most Of their work is performed at
an altitude higher than the topmast Oh
any sailing vessel. They labor in all
kinds OF weather-when the sun is
pouring down its torrid rays in mid
summer or when the mercury registers
zero in winter.
